You could look up the apple store online for advice or google the question.
Or visit nearest apple store to ask.

Bluetooth on your phone pair with bluetooth on your computer and then just transfer via bluetooth,
Just point your phone at the computer and follow instructions

You probably need to be on WiFi and have a good connection.
