HTC Shift User Guide

HTC Shift With Microsoft Origami™ Experience 2.0  3

Origami Central is a central location where you can enjoy multimedia 

entertainment, browse the web and read the latest news from your web 

feeds, as well as access your favorite programs.

Origami Central and Windows Media® Player share the same Library. If your 

media files are stored in custom folders, open Windows Media® Player first 

and add your media folders to the Library before you use Origami Central to 

view or play your media files. For instructions on how to add media folders 

to the Library, see Windows Media® Player Help.
You can also download media files from another computer to your HTC Shift 

and then view or play them in Origami Central. Before you can download, 

connect both computers to a wireless or wired network and then turn 

on media sharing in Windows Media® Player on both computers. For 

instructions on how to enable media sharing, see Windows Media® Player 

Help.

On the Origami Central Home screen, tap Media.

Tap the Music, Pictures, or Videos icon depending on which media 

type you want to download.

Tap Library, and then select a category.

A Down arrow icon (   ) indicates that a music, picture, or video 

selection is ready to be downloaded. To download, tap a music, 

picture, or video thumbnail that has this icon.

Tap the Music icon under Media, and then tap Library.

Tap a category such as All music, Albums, Artists, or Genre, and 

then browse through the list of music.

Tap a music to play it. Use the controls at the bottom of the screen to 

control the playback.
