Abstract
An information processing apparatus which is able to reliably send desired communication setting data irrespective of specifications of an NFC R/W unit placed close to an NFC tag. The NFC tag sends data to a mobile terminal, which is put close the NFC tag, via near-field wireless communication. It is determined whether or not the NFC R/W unit has a transmitting function of transmitting other data to the mobile terminal, which is put close thereto, via the near-field wireless communication. In a case where the NFC R/W unit has the transmitting function and it is determined that the mobile terminal is put close to the information processing apparatus, the transmitting function of the NFC R/W unit is prohibited from being used.
