Provided is an information processing apparatus, including a first near field communication unit that transmits a first wireless signal for performing first near field communication with a first communication object, a second near field communication unit that transmits a second wireless signal for performing second near field communication with a second communication object that is capable of being the first communication object, and a communication controller that controls the first and second near field communication units to perform the first or second near field communication with the first or second communication object when the first wireless signal and the second wireless signal are alternately transmitted, and existence of the first or the second communication object is continuously detected plural times through transmission of one of the first and second wireless signals.

An information processing apparatus includes a reception unit and a controller. The reception unit receives registration of an address. The controller performs, when the reception unit receives registration of the address, control such that a group having an attribute of the address, among preset groups, is presented as a recommended registration destination for the address.

An information processing apparatus communicates with a fax apparatus and provides a chat service. The information processing apparatus includes an acceptance unit that accepts an execution instruction on a channel of the chat service from a user and a transmission unit that transmits, based on acceptance of the execution instruction by the acceptance unit, to the fax apparatus, an instruction for the fax apparatus to transmit image data uploaded to the channel of the chat service to a transmission destination and the image data.

A communication apparatus capable of storing a facsimile signal with high quality. A modem processing unit performs facsimile communication. A modulated digital signal storing unit stores a digital signal that is modulated by the modem processing unit in order to transmit to an opposite-side apparatus in the facsimile communication into a storage unit without converting into an analog signal. A demodulated digital signal storing unit stores a digital signal that is obtained by demodulating a signal received from the opposite-side apparatus in the facsimile communication by the modem processing unit into the storage unit.
