Managing files using a computer

Use a USB cable connection between a Windows® computer and your device to
transfer and manage your files. Once the two devices are connected, you can drag and
drop content between your device and the computer, or between your device's internal
storage and SD card, using the computer's file explorer.
If you have an Apple® Mac® computer, you can use the Sony Bridge for Mac
application to access the file system of your device. You can download Sony Bridge for
Mac from http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/bridge-for-mac/.
If you're transferring music, video, pictures, or other media files to your device, use the Media
Go™ application on your Windows® computer. Media Go™ converts media files so you can
use them on your device. To learn more and download the Media Go™ application, go to

Backing Up and Restoring Content

Generally, you should not save photos, videos, and other personal content solely on the
internal memory of your device. If something should happen to the hardware, or if your
device is lost or stolen, the data stored on its internal memory is gone forever. It is
recommended to use the PC Companion or the Sony Bridge for Mac applications to
make backups which save your data safely to a computer, that is, an external device.
This method is especially recommended if you are updating your device software from
one Android version to another, such as from Android version 4.4 to 5.0.
Once your data is safely backed up to a computer, you can also make a quick backup of
basic settings and data to the SD card in your device or to an external USB storage
device by using the Backup & Restore application.
It is very important that you remember the password that you set when you make a data
backup. If you forget the password, it may not be possible to restore important data such as
contacts and messages.
Backing Up Data to a Computer
Use the PC Companion application or the Sony Bridge for Mac application to back up
data from your device to a PC or an Apple
let you back up the following types of data:
