1. A communication apparatus configured to transmit data to an apparatus, the communication apparatus comprising:
- a hardware storage medium configured to store management information of data to be transferred to the apparatus;
a communicator configured to communicate data with the apparatus;
a detector configured to detect whether the communication apparatus and the apparatus are connected;
an editor configured to select certain data to be transferred and to edit the management information based on the selection without regard to the connection of the communication apparatus and the apparatus; and
a controller configured to control transfer of the selected data stored in the communication apparatus to the apparatus via the communicator based on the management information edited by the editor when the detector detects that the communication apparatus and the apparatus are connected,wherein the controller is configured tocompare the management information edited by the editor with management information of data stored in the apparatus,determine a size of the selected data in the communication apparatus, andtransmit data in the communication apparatus based on result of the comparison and the determination.
