 Once completely formatted, you will have to remount the microSD card in order to

use it.

Note: The formatting procedure erases all the data on the microSD card, after which the files

CANNOT be retrieved. To prevent the loss of important data, please check the contents
before you format the card.

Connect Your Device to Your Computer

Before using your device's mass storage capabilities, you need to prepare your device's data
services to synchronize with your desktop or laptop computer. Once you have connected the
device to the computer, you can transfer your data to or from the microSD card.

To connect your device to a computer via USB:

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

your computer.

2. Open the Notifications Panel and tap USB connected.

3. Select Mass storage and tap Done and OK in the dialog box that opens to confirm that

you want to transfer files.

 When the device is connected as USB storage, you receive a notification on your

computer.

 You device's microSD card is mounted as a removable drive on your computer. You

can now copy files to and from the microSD card. For more information, see the
documentation for your computer.

 During this time, you will not be able to access the microSD card in your device, so

you can't use applications that rely on the microSD card, such as Camera, Gallery,
and Music.

To remove the connection:

WARNING: Carefully follow your computer's instructions to unmount, remove, or disconnect

any removable USB devices or disks, to avoid losing information on the microSD
card when disconnecting your phone from your computer.

1. On your computer, complete the process to safely Stop, or Remove, the USB device (in

this case, the phone). For example, use the Safely Remove Hardware option to Stop the
USB Mass Storage Device on Windows® XP.

2. Open the Notifications Panel (on your device) and tap USB connected and select

Charge only to unmount the microSD card.
