Hi,  
I’m trying to connect, over bluetooth, to a mobile device and send a  
picure.  
That’s my code:

require ‘osx/cocoa’

OSX::NSBundle.bundleWithPath("/System/Library/Frameworks/IOBluetoothUI.framework").load

OSX.ns\_import :IOBluetoothDeviceSelectorController

bluedevices = OSX::IOBluetoothDeviceSelectorController.deviceSelector  
bluedevices.runModal;  
result = bluedevices.getResults;

bluetoothDevice = result.objectAtIndex(0);

OSX::NSBundle.bundleWithPath("/System/Library/Frameworks/IOBluetooth.framework").load;  
OSX.ns\_import :IOBluetoothOBEXSession;  
obexSession =  
OSX::IOBluetoothOBEXSession.withDevice\_channelID(bluetoothDevice, 9);

OSX.ns\_import :OBEXFileTransferServices;  
service = OSX::OBEXFileTransferServices.withOBEXSession(obexSession);

connectResult = service.connectToFTPService;  
puts connectResult;  
sleep 3;  
sendResult=service.sendFile("/Users/davide/myPicture.jpeg");  
puts sendResult;  
sleep 3;  
service.disconnect;

I know the channel id for ftp on my device is 9, puts connectResult  
displays 0, but puts sendResult shows -21875 (i.e busy) and of course,  
no picture is sent to the device.  
Do you understand this behavior?  
TIA  
Davide
