9.3 Copying and Managing Files
You can copy files between your device and PC, or copy files to a storage
card that is inserted on your device. You can also efficiently manage your
files and folders using File Explorer.
Copy files using Windows Mobile® Device Center or
ActiveSync
Using Windows Mobile® Device Center or ActiveSync, you can copy files
from your PC to your device and vice versa.
To copy a file between your device and the PC
1. Connect your device to the PC.
2. Click File Management > Browse the contents of your device in
Windows Mobile Device Center or click Explore in ActiveSync on
your PC. This opens Windows Explorer on your PC and displays the
contents of your device.
3. To copy a le from your device to your PC:
a. In Windows Explorer on your PC, browse your device and navigate
to the le that you want to copy.
b. Right-click the le, then click

c. Locate the destination folder on your PC. Right-click the folder,
then click Paste.
4. To copy a le from your PC to your device:
a. On your PC, navigate to the folder that contains the le you want
to copy.
b. Right-click the le, then click Copy.
c. Right-click the destination folder on your device, then click

Copying a file results in separate versions of a file on your device and PC.
Because the files are not synchronized, changes made to one file will not
affect the other. If you want file changes to be automatically updated on
your device and PC, you can synchronize files between your device and PC.
For more information about synchronizing with a computer, see Chapter 5.
