Transferring files using Media transfer mode via Wi-Fi
®
You can transfer files between your device and other MTP compatible devices, such
as a computer, using a Wi-Fi
®
 connection. Before connecting, you first need to pair
the two devices. If you're transferring music, video, pictures or other media files
between your device and a computer, it's best to use the Media Go™ application on
the computer. Media Go™ converts media files so that you can use them on your
device.
In order to use this feature, you need a Wi-Fi
®
 enabled device that supports Media transfer,
for example, a computer running Microsoft
®
 Windows Vista
®
 or Windows
®
 7.

1
Make sure Media transfer mode is enabled on your device. It is normally
enabled by default.
2
Connect your device to the computer using a USB cable.
3
Computer: Once the name of your device appears on the screen, click
Network configuration and follow the instructions to pair the computer.

The above instructions only work if Windows
®
 7 is installed on your computer and the
computer is connected to a Wi-Fi
®
 Access Point via a network cable.
