Connecting your phone to a computer
By connecting your phone to a computer you can transfer and handle files such as pictures
and music. You may not be allowed to exchange some copyright protected material.
You can connect your phone to a computer with a USB cable or by using Bluetooth™
wireless technology. When connecting your phone to a computer with a USB cable you
will be able to install and use the PC Companion application on your computer. With the
PC Companion application you can access additional applications to transfer and organize
media files, update your phone, and more.
Transferring and handling content using a USB cable
You can connect your phone to a computer with a USB cable in order to manage files on
your phone. From your computer's file explorer, you can then drag and drop content
between your phone and the computer. Use the Media Go™ application on your computer
when you transfer music, video and pictures, or any other media files, to make sure they
get adapted and transferred to your phone in a correct and convenient way.
If you are running an application on your phone and the application is using the memory card,
you may need to close the application in order to access the memory card.
