So you have this device called a cell phone. (ok... let's get over it and spell it cellphone) It takes pictures. All you want to do is "download photos from cellphone to computer." Your cellphone has no "drivers." (Does that mean the cabs are full?) Fear not. A solution does exist.

STEP 1: Make sure your phone has Bluetooth
Click OPTIONS and it should show up somewhere in the menus. If you do not have Bluetooth exit right here.

STEP 2: Buy a Bluetooth Dongle Click Here to BUY Bluetooth Dongle. Yes... it really only costs 99 cents.

STEP 3: Wait 5 days

STEP 4: Get scissors from drawer and cut open package that came in the mail

STEP 5: Turn Bluetooth ON on your cellphone

STEP 6: Plug Bluetooth Dongle into USB port on computer.

STEP 7: A little Bluetooth Icon will appear in the Notification area of your Task Bar probably near where you see your printer icon. It looks like it was designed by the American Heart Association and sort of like the letter B.

STEP 8: Click on this Bluetooth Icon and click
“Add Bluetooth Device” in the menu.

STEP 9: Click “My Device is Set up and Ready to Be Found”

STEP 10: Click Next

STEP 11: Click on your cellphone once it finds it

STEP 12: Choose “Let me use my own password” Type in 5 numbers that you can remember. “12345” are my favorite.

STEP 13: Enter in the password into the phone (It will alert you)

STEP 14: Click back down on the Bluetooth Icon in your Notification area of your Task Bar on the computer and choose “Receive a File.”

STEP 15: Go to your Cellphone and find your photos… click on
OPTIONS >> SEND VIA >> BLUETOOTH >> YOUR DEVICE

GO BACK TO STEP 14 for MORE PHOTOS

REMEMBER: For additional files you MUST GO TO STEP 14 and click “Receive a File.”

See, I told you it would only take half the day!
