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 118.
•
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
