Nokia N85 - Transfer content

Transfer content

You can use the

Switch

application to copy content

such as phone numbers, addresses, calendar items,

and images from your previous Nokia device to your

Nokia N85 using Bluetooth connectivity.
The type of content that can be transferred depends on

the model of the device from which you want to

transfer content. If that device supports

synchronisation, you can also synchronise data

between the devices. Your Nokia N85 notifies you if the

other device is not compatible.
If the other device cannot be switched on without a

SIM card, you can insert your SIM card in it. When your

Nokia N85 is switched on without a SIM card, the offline

profile is automatically activated, and transfer can be

done.

Switch application on the other device, open the

message, and follow the instructions on the display.

N85. The transfer time depends on the amount of data

to be transferred.
