Transferring video content to your device

Before you start using the Movies application, it’s a good idea to transfer movies, TV

shows and other video content to your device from other devices, such as a

computer. There are several ways to transfer your content:

Connect your device to a computer using a USB cable and drag and drop the video

files directly using the file manager application on the computer. See

Managing files

using a computer on page 127.

If you have a PC, use the Media Go™ application from Sony to organise content and

transfer video files to your device via the PC. To learn more and download the Media

Go™ application, go to http://mediago.sony.com/enu/features.

If your computer is an Apple® Mac®, you can use Sony Bridge for Mac to transfer

video files from iTunes to your device. To learn more and download Sony Bridge for

Mac, go to
