Connect Your Nokia NSeries Smartphone to Flickr

Nokia has partnered with Flickr to bundle access to the photo service site with some of its NSeries smartphones. With Flickr onboard users can share more than one photo at a time and upload high resolution pictures taken with their smartphone right up to the Web site.

Flickr has posted instructions on how to sign up for an account and get started for the supported NSeries smartphones. Below is the photo-sharing destinationfs explanation for the N73. There are also pages devoted to connecting the N70 Music Edition, N72, N80 Internet Edition, N93, and N93i to Flickr.

Connect a N73 to Flickr:

1. Setup
1. Go to "Gallery" ¨ "Images & Video"
2. Choose "Options" ¨ "Open Online Service"

2. Select Service
1. Choose "Create New Flickr Account"

Don't see Flickr here?
OK. That means you need to grab a config file to put on your device. Click this link and save the config file to your desktop. (Need help? Check out the FAQ.)

3. Create The New Account
1. Enter an "Account Name" (this is a name for your reference, free text)
2. The "Service Provider" is Flickr
3. Enter your username and password (Sign up for an account or sign in to get these bits.)
4. Choose an image size for uploads (optional)

4. Connect to the Flickr Service
1. Say "Yes" (you'd like to retrieve the service)
