Nokia Switch

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 N96 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 N96 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 N96 is switched on without a SIM card, the offline
profile is automatically activated, and transfer can be
done.

code on the other device, and select OK. The devices
are now paired. See "Pair devices", p. 113.
Some earlier Nokia devices may not have the Switch
application. In this case, the Switch application is
sent to the other device as a message. To install the
Switch application on the other device, open the
message, and follow the instructions on the display.
4. From your Nokia N96, select the content you want
to transfer from the other device.
When the transfer has started, you can cancel it and
continue later.
Content is transferred from the memory of the other
device to the corresponding location in your Nokia
N96. The transfer time depends on the amount of data
to be transferred.
