This Getting started guide describes two ways of handling files when you are connected to a computer;
transferring files (pictures, videos, sounds, themes and so on) and synchronizing files (contacts,
appointments, tasks and notes).
Regarding transferring music between a computer and your phone, see the Walkman Getting started
guide on www.sonyericsson.com/support for details.
The Sony Ericsson PC Suite software has to be installed when you want to synchronize files and transfer
files using the File Manager application. You can find PC Suite on the CD that comes with your phone or it
can be downloaded from www.sonyericsson.com/support.
PC Suite for your phone series is designed to work with Windows® 2000 (SP3/SP4) and
Windows® XP Home and Professional (SP1/SP2). Other mobile phones may not be supported,
see www.sonyericsson.com/support for details.
