Okay so I want to send my songs from my laptop to my phone (yeah I found it woo!) but I have no idea how.
Both have bluetooth as far as I'm aware but is there some program I need or something? There's nothing on my computer although it does have the bluetooth sign so I guess it has it...but do I need to download something?
If there's a program I can get so that I can use it post it and I'll +rep.
Helpful comments also get +rep. thanks :)

Double check that the laptop actually has bluetooth. My sister's laptop had a bluetooth logo thing on it but didn't actually have built in bluetooth, the manufacturers had just used the same case as a very similar model that did have bluetooth.
Check all around the laptop, are there any switches or buttons that could turn the bluetooth on? You usually need to enable it with a switch/button and then the software will open in the system tray.

If you have Windows 7 (should work with Vista, don't know about XP)
Right click on the item, Send To, and then Bluetooth device. You'll have to pair the two, whichever passcode you enter on the PC (any will do) will have to be entered on the phone.
If your laptop doesn't have Bluetooth, Poundworld have Bluetooth adapters (guess the price), I have one and it works fine with my Windows 7 rig.

I believe they're made by Livewire. It's a little one that you can plug in and leave it in, only protudes about a centimeter from the USB port. Worked fine on my laptop, sending files to my V630 and my Legend.
