Sharing media and data across your home group network

(select models only)

Your computer has advanced features that allow you to connect your mobile devices and then
exchange photos, files, data, music, or videos. Using Near Field Communication (NFC) hardware and
sMedio 360 software on your home group network, you can wirelessly share or tap to share
information between two devices.

Before you can begin using sMedio 360 software, be sure that all of your computers

works with computers running either the Windows 7 or Windows 8 operating system.

Migrate and synchronize data between two computers on a wired or wireless home group
network, with sMedio TrueSync.
