Connecting to a Computer

Connect your device to a computer to transfer data between
your device and the computer. Use the USB cable that comes
with your device, or use one of the pre-loaded apps on your
device to connect wirelessly.

Transferring Data

Connect your device to a computer, via USB cable, to transfer
data as a Media device using MTP (Media Transfer Protocol),
or as a Camera using PTP (Photo Transfer Protocol).

1. Attach your phone to the computer with a USB data

cable. Your phone recognizes the connection as the

last connection method you used, and displays a

connection alert in the Status Bar and Notifications.

2. From the Home screen, sweep your finger downward

to display Notifications. Touch the alert.

3. Select a connection method:

• Media device (MTP): Transfer media files with

Windows, or using Android file transfer on a Mac (see

android.com/filetransfer

).

• Camera (PTP): Transfer photos using camera

software, and transfer files to computers that do not

support MTP.

4. On your computer, choose a method for accessing your

device. Available options depend on the programs

installed on your computer.

5. Transfer files to the memory card (not included). When

finished, you can disconnect the USB cable.
