these features will not appear on your device menu. Your
device may also have a special configuration such as changes
in menu names, menu order, and icons. Contact your service
provider for more information.

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.

1. To retrieve data from the other device for the first
time, on your Nokia N96, select Switch in the Welcome
application, or press
Utilities > Switch.

the data. Both devices must support the selected
connection type.
3. If you select Bluetooth, connect the two devices. To
have your device search for devices with Bluetooth
connectivity, select Continue. Select the device from
which you want to transfer content. You are asked to
enter a code on your Nokia N96. Enter a code (1-16
digits), and select OK. Enter the same code on the
other device, and select OK. The devices are now
paired.
See "Pair devices", p. 49.
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.

About Live TV
Your device has an integrated Digital Video Broadcast Handheld (DVB-H) receiver, which enables it to receive

of Live TV services, and instructions on accessing the
services, contact your service provider.
In some countries, owners of a television receiver are
