I have spent a very frustrating day trying to connect my iphone 6 plus (iOS 10.2.1) to my Laptop (Win 10 64 bit) with Bluetooth. I first got them connected after a struggle and both devices said they were talking (and displayed each other's names and had confirmed "pairing"). But the phone refused to take a file I was transferring (a *.mov file) Windows telling me that Bluetooth was not connected (as I said, both devices had confirmed they were). I have switched Bluetooth on and off on both several times, rebooted both several times and have checked the device drivers (one Bluetooth driver on the PC needed updating). Zilch - the Windows machine seems to see the phone though the symbol and message on Windows goes on and off spontaneously every minute or two (the devices are only two or three feet apart). There is no evidence that the iphone recognises anything in the same galaxy - it is just "searching" continuously. At no point since the first connection several hours ago has there been any evidence that the phone's Bluetooth is working properly.
It is important to say that at one point I did tell both to "forget" the other, in order to restart from scratch. Is there some setting somewhere in the phone that tells it to unforget? On other networks, the phone usually still sees a network even when it has been told to forget its link.
I can only think of resetting the phone, whcih seems too drastic for this issue
