Connecting your phone to a computer

Connect your phone to a computer and start transferring pictures, music and other file

types. The easiest ways to connect are using a USB cable or Bluetooth wireless

technology.
When you connect your phone to the computer using a USB cable, you are prompted to

install the PC Companion application on your computer. PC Companion helps you

access additional computer applications to transfer and organise media files, update

your phone, synchronise phone content, and more.

You might not be able to transfer some copyright-protected material between your phone and

computer.

Transferring and handling content using a USB cable

Use a USB cable connection between a computer and your phone for easy transfer and

management of your files. Once the two devices are connected, you can drag and drop

content between them using the computer's file explorer. If you're transferring music,

video, pictures or other media files to your phone, it's best to use the Media Go™

application on your computer. Media Go™ converts media files so that you can use

them on your phone.

media devices such as TVs, car kits, and Mac OS/Linux computers lacking MTP

support.
