Galaxy S5 bluetooth won't connect??

I am able to pair my Galaxy S5 phone with my MacBook Pro. However, after about 30 seconds it goes from a state of connected to not connected? I have tried unpairing, repairng, rebooting etc. No luck. I do have an Apple bluetooth mouse connected via bluetooth.

Any suggestions as would be appreicated.

Thanks.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Many thanks indeed for the help - you've saved me hours of wasted time. Bluetooth is now transferring perfectly in both directions (Mac to Phone and Phone to Mac). Of course it's obvious the Bluetooth transfer controls are kept in the Sharing folder, not the Bluetooth folder - how could I have missed that!

Thanks this sorted out my Samsung S3 i9305 LTE connection. In Snow Leopard I never had this problem but Apple being Apple make changes without ever letting us, the customers, know how to resolve anything, let alone just leaving what works alone. 😉
