Folders are also used when managing files of different types on your P910a and Memory Stick. You might want to move or copy sound files into a sound track folder to store on a Memory Stick.
As you may notice, if you connect your P910a to a PC and view the contents of your P910a in My P910a, it is easier to get an overview of a folder and file structure on a large screen than on a handheld device. If you make it a habit to set up specific folders to suit your needs and use them to categorize all your information, working with it becomes easy.
Each application has its own set of folders. A folder created in one application is not visible in another.
For each application there is a default Unfiled folder. Since there is no way of seeing on your P910a, whether a file in an Unfiled folder is located on your P910a or on a Memory Stick, we recommend that you move files to your own folders as soon as possible.
Every item created in an application is always assigned to a single folder, by default the folder as displayed in the list view.
In list view, the folder menu is used to organize your entries. In detail view, the folder menu allows you to change the folder of the current item.
Using the folder menu
In the applications that use folders you can see the folder menu to the right in the menu bar.
When a Memory Stick is available in the P910a, the folders on it are shown in the folder menu under the divider. If you rename the disk (see ‘Renaming a Memory Stick’ on page 22) the divider will show the new name.
In list view, there is a
