Copy files between your phone and your
computer

Copy files and folders using USB Drive mode

You can copy any type of file from a computer to your phone, and from your
phone to your computer, by putting your phone in USB Drive mode.

After you copy a file to your phone, you can open the file if your phone has
an application that supports the file type. You can open many file formats for
photos, videos, and music; Microsoft Office files; and PDF files. You can also
copy ringtones that you download from your computer’s web browser.

IMPORTANT

All files that you store on the USB Drive of your phone are not

backed up to your Palm profile, and they cannot sync to any of your online
accounts. So be sure to keep a copy of all such files somewhere besides your
phone just in case you lose your phone or you must do a full erase of the info on
your phone.

When your phone is in USB Drive mode, you can’t make or receive calls or
use other wireless features such as email or the web.
