Connect your tablet to a computer via USB
Use the USB cable that came with your tablet to connect the tablet to a USB port on your computer. ●
Your tablet’s USB storage is mounted as a drive on your computer. You can now copy files back and forth as you would
using any other external device. For more information, see the documentation for your computer.
When you’re done, simply disconnect the tablet from your computer by unplugging the USB cable. ●
Connecting to a Macintosh computer via USB
You can connect your tablet to a computer running Mac OS X with a USB cable, to transfer music, pictures, and other
files between your tablet and the computer.
This connection uses the MTP protocol, which is not supported by Mac OS X natively, so you first need to install the
free Android File Transfer application on your Macintosh. It’s available from www.android.com/filetransfer, along with
instructions on how to install it.
Transfer files to or from a Macintosh computer
Once you have installed Android File Transfer on your Macintosh, you can connect your tablet to your computer using
the USB cable that came with your tablet, so you can view and copy files.
If you are using Android File Transfer for the first time, double-click it to open it.

After you start Android File Transfer once, it opens automatically whenever you connect your tablet to your
computer.
