I managed to bluetooth pair my Envy laptop and Windows 8.1 Lumia 535 phone but I'm now looking for an entry for the phone in Windows Eplorer (or Powerdesk) so that I move files around. Although they show as being paired I can't do anything with them. I've also used a USB cable but that won't connect at all.

I'm obviously missing something here!
