Send Information Using Bluetooth

You can use Bluetooth to transfer information between your tablet and another Bluetooth-enabled device such as a tablet or notebook computer. The first time you transfer information between your table and another device, you need to enter or confirm a security passcode. After that, your tablet and the other device are paired, and you will not need to exchange pass codes to transfer information in the future.

You can send the following types of information, depending on the device you are sending to:

•Images and videos

•Calendar events

•Contacts

•Audio files
