Abstract: An apparatus includes a nonvolatile semiconductor storage having a semiconductor area and configured to execute erasure processing based on information about a storage area in which unused data is stored in the semiconductor area in a case where the information is received, and a controller having one or more processors which execute instructions stored in one or more memories, the controller being configured to notify the semiconductor storage of the information, cause the semiconductor storage to stop the erasure processing by reception of a signal related to a job while the semiconductor storage is executing the erasure processing, and transmit a response signal for the signal related to the job to the semiconductor storage.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus which makes it possible to make communication settings with ease. A mobile terminal as the information processing apparatus includes a Bluetooth controller that causes a Bluetooth communication section to receive a packet, a CPU that generates a device list, based on the packet, a display section that displays the device list. The CPU selects a device from the device list based on a received radio field intensity of the packet or selects a device from the device list based on a selection operation by a user. The mobile terminal further includes a wireless LAN controller that cause a wireless LAN communication section to transmit data to the selected device.

Abstract: A technology is provided for, when an error occurs in a communication apparatus (image forming apparatus), notifying a user of information relating to the error using NFC without a decrease in the user's convenience. A communication apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention includes an NFC device (NFC controller) which can operate in either a reader/writer mode or a card emulation mode. The communication apparatus, when an error occurs, obtains information relating to the error, and sets, into the NFC device, the obtained error information as information which an external mobile terminal can read from the communication apparatus via NFC in the card emulation mode. The communication apparatus also sets the operation mode of the NFC device to the card emulation mode.
