Bug Description

When I want to send a file to a Mac via bluetooth in Ubuntu 14.04 (Gnome), I have to type "bluetooth-sendto" in a terminal in order to be able to browse a file and send it.

When I am connected to an Android Smartphone (in my tests Galaxy Note II and Note III), I see a button "Send File" in the right-hand corner in the bluetooth menu in Gnome 3.10.

I think it is a bug that there is no button provided to the Mac in the same menu.
