Hi,

Can someone shed any light on getting my Nokia N8 to send pictures/videos to my iPad 2???
I've pair them up successfully but when. Try to send something to my iPad it says unable to connect yet it is paired and connected ok
Does the iPad only work with iPhones on bluetooth?

Any info please

You won't be able to I'm afraid, unless your jailbroken, and then you can use celeste, but even that's not ideal!

Yeah you can do that, just pair the two devices and it works fine

Hi Cannonz - welcome to the forum! :)

I'm not sure about getting images off you specific phone, but can you email them to yourself via the phone and then view your email on the iPad and use the save function for attached images? Another thought, can you transfer your photos from the phone to your computer, and then use iTunes to get them onto your iPad?

Concerning Bluetooth (BT), this is a short range 'wireless' technology used mainly for conversing between keyboards, earphones, and external speakers. I have the BT earphones shown below (Roketfish) which I 'pair' w/ my iPod to listen to music 'untethered' - great on a treadmill! These can also be used w/ my BT cellular phone if desired. Hope this helps? In not, please post back to this thread - good luck!

I use an app called 'Photo Sync' to send images between my iMac & iPad2 (You need it on both) It uses wifi to transfer the pictures & I have found no problems using it.
