Hello,

Appologies if this is in the wrong forum !

I have been trying to connect my mobile phone to my PC via infra Red. I have successfully been able to send pictures etc to my phone from the PC, but trying to send from the phone to the PC has been ALMOST impossible. I say almost as after hundreds of attempts, I have managed to send 2 pictures from phone to PC. 99 times out of 100 I get "Connection failed - No device found" on my phone. The IR sensors are lined up right next to each other and the system works EVERY time when transferring the opposite way (PC to phone). Is there something I'm doing wrong ?

Using Sony Ericcson Z600
USB IrDA
Windows XP Pro

The driver installed for the IrDA device is for a EDISONSOFT ES-620 USB

Thanks
