Connect to a Windows computer via USB
You can use a USB cable to connect your tablet to a Windows
computer and transfer music, pictures, and other les in both di-
rections. This connection uses the MTP protocol, which is sup-
ported by most recent versions of Windows.
If you are using USB tethering, you must turn that off before you
can use USB to transfer les between your tablet and computer.
When you connect your tablet to the USB port on your computer,
its USB storage is mounted as a drive and appears on your com-
puter screen. You can now copy les back and forth as you would
using any other external device.
When you’re nished, simply disconnect the tablet by unplugging
the USB cable.
To turn USB tethering on or off, go to Settings >
Wireless & networks > More > Tethering & portable
hotspot.
To change your tablet’s USB connection options, go
to Settings > Device > Storage > Menu > USB com-
puter connection.
