Compatibility
The P800 defines its own folder structure on a Memory Stick. Each application has its own set of folders. A folder created in one application is not visible in another.
Other devices must access the same folder structure to interact with the P800 files. If you are using a PC this is easily done by browsing to the required folder on the Memory Stick. Memory Stick enabled devices where you cannot browse and manage a folder structure may not be able to share da ta directly with your P800. For example, it may not be possible for your P800 to read images taken on a M emory S tick ena bled di gital came ra withou t first using a PC to copy them to the images folder in the P800 folder structure. When your P800 is connected to your PC, you have access to the P800 folder structure and the Memory Stick
