Did You Know?
When you transfer
photos and videos using
the desktop Media
application, the files may
be converted for viewing
on your handheld. File
Transfer does not convert
files, so you may not be
able to view the photos or
videos on your handheld.
Did You Know?
Even though photos and
videos transferred using
Media are saved in the
Photos & Videos folder on
your handheld’s internal
drive, updates to these
files are included when
you synchronize.
