Backing up and restoring content
Generally, you should not save photos, videos and other personal content solely on
the internal memory of your device. If something should happen with the hardware, or
if your device is lost or stolen, the data stored on its internal memory is gone forever.
It is recommended to use the PC Companion or the Sony™ Bridge for Mac
applications to make backups which save your data safely to a computer, that is, an
external device. This method is especially recommended if you are updating your
device software from one version to another.
Once your data is safely backed up to a computer, you can also make a quick
backup of basic settings and data to the SD card in your device or to an external
USB storage device by using the Backup and restore application. This backup
method is useful, for example, if you are doing a factory data reset and are not
updating the software version.
Backing up data to a computer
Use the PC Companion application or the Sony™ Bridge for Mac application to back
up data from your device to a PC or an Apple
®
Mac
®
computer. These backup
applications let you back up the following types of data:
•
Contacts and call logs
•
Text messages
•
Settings
•
Media files
