Connecting to a computer via USB

You can connect your phone to a computer with a USB cable, to transfer music, pictures, and other files between your phone’s microSD card and the computer.

Warning! When connecting your phone to a computer and mounting its microSD card, you must follow your computer’s instructions for connecting and disconnecting USB devices, to avoid damaging or corrupting the files on your microSD card.

1Use the USB cable that came with your phone to connect the phone to a USB port on your computer.

You receive a notification that the USB is connected.

2Open the Notifications panel and touch USB connected.

For details on working with the Notifications panel, see “Managing notifications” on page 52.

3Touch Mount in the dialog that opens to confirm that you want to transfer files. When the phone is connected as USB storage, you receive a notification.

Your phone’s microSD card is mounted as a drive on your computer. You can now copy files to and from the microSD card. For more information, see the documentation for your computer.
