I&#8217;ve always thought that I&#8217;d figure out a way to do this, but never got to it. A few days ago I was finally able to do it via the following steps:<\/p>\n<p>1. My feature phone has Bluetooth capabilities, so I figured a good path to go is to give my computer Bluetooh capability by purchasing a Bluetooth USB device. There are several you can find if you search for &#8220;USB Bluetooth.&#8221; The one I got was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/IOGEAR-Bluetooth-Micro-Adapter-GBU421\/dp\/B0018O9JIG\/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=abriefsqltutori&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325\">IOGEAR USB 2.1 Bluetooth Micro Adapter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->2. Once I received the Bluetooth USB adapter, I put it in the USB port. The installation disk that came with the adapter didn&#8217;t work. Fortunately, Windows was able to locate and install the proper driver.<\/p>\n<p>3. I used the Bluetooth interface in Windows to find and pair up with the feature phone. One thing to note is to make sure you set up a passkey (you&#8217;ll need to enter the same passkey on your feature phone to connect). I initially didn&#8217;t set up a passkey and was not able to connect properly. Also, remember to turn Bluetooth on in your feature phone so Windows can detect it.<\/p>\n<p>4. Once connected, i was initially unable to use the &#8220;Send\/Recive File&#8221; feature to download the pictures. I solved this problem by downloading and installing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.medieval.it\/blueftp-pc\/menu-id-70.html\">Medieval Software&#8217;s Bluetooth OBEX File Transfer software<\/a>. I was then able to download the pictures from my feature phone using this software.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article provides instructions on how to download pictures from your feature phone to your computer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[19],"tags":[223,186,224,225],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":343,"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340\/revisions\/343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.1keydata.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
