About transferring and synchronising media files
You can connect your BlackBerry smartphone to your computer to transfer and synchronise files between your
smartphone and your computer using a USB cable or you can use Bluetooth® technology to send media files to, or
receive media files from, a Bluetooth-enabled device.
When you connect your smartphone to your computer using a USB cable, the USB option that appears in the
dialog box on the screen allows you to drag most files from a folder on your computer to a folder on your
smartphone or media card. The media option in the dialog box allows you to transfer media files that are protected
with DRM to and from your smartphone. Both options allow you to use the BlackBerry Desktop Software to transfer
files to and from your smartphone.
