Send Information Using Bluetooth
You can use Bluetooth to transfer information between your phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device
such as a phone or computer. The first time you transfer information between your phone and another
phone, you need to enter or confirm a security passcode. After that, your phone and the other phone are
paired, and you will not need to exchange passcodes to transfer information in the future.
Important: Before you begin, set the receiving phone to discoverable mode. You may also need to set it
to "Receive Beams" or "Receive Files." Refer to the phone
’s documentation for instructions on receiving
information over Bluetooth.
You can send the following types of information, depending on the phone you are sending to:
1. On your phone, open the application that contains the information or file you want to send.
2. Follow the steps for the type of item you want to send:

Where Sent Information is Saved
When you send information from your phone using Bluetooth, the location where it ’s saved depends on
the type of information and the receiving device.
If you send a calendar event or contact, it is normally added directly to the corresponding application on
the receiving phone. For example, if you send a calendar event to a compatible phone, the event is
shown in that phone
’s calendar application.
If you send another file type to a Windows computer, it is normally saved in the Bluetooth Exchange
folder within your personal document folders.
