introduction

You can use a USB cable to connect your BlackBerry® device to your computer so that your device's storage card appears as a USB storage device to your computer. You can then easily copy files from your computer to the storage card of your device.

The following step-by-step instructions use this method to show you how to do so using a computer running Windows 7 Professional to copy a couple of document files to a T-Mobile G1 device.

The method for copying files described in this article also works for other operating systems that support USB storage devices, which essentially all modern operating systems do. The screenshots for the Android™ device in this article may differ slightly from your specific Android™ device, but the same concepts apply.

These instructions assume you have iSilo™ installed on your Android™ device.

Note that the images shown here may differ from your particular setup depending on the version of iSilo™ you have installed and the version of Windows 7 on your system, but the instructions are pretty much the same even if your computer does not run Windows 7. The screenshots in this article were taken on a system running Windows 7 Professional.

instructions

1. Connect your Android™ device to your computer using the USB cable. A USB icon should then appear in the notification area at the top left of your device's screen. Press and drag down the notification area to get the list of notifications, one of which is titled USB connected.
