Connect to a Macintosh computer via USB
You can use a USB cable to connect your phone to a computer running Mac OS X with a USB cable and
transfer music, pictures, and other files in both directions.
This connection uses the MTP protocol, which is not supported by Mac OS X natively. Therefore, 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.
After you install Android File Transfer, follow these steps:
1 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 device
to your computer.
2 Connect your device to your computer with a USB cable.
Android File Transfer starts, if it's not already running, and opens a window that displays the contents of
your device, along with storage space details at the bottom of the window.
You work with this window much as if it were a Finder window: opening and closing folders, creating new
folders, and dragging files to or from it and other Finder windows. Disconnect the USB cable when you're
finished.
