Sideloading Files - Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 User Manual

Sideloading Files

Sideloading means transferring files from your personal computer to your
NOOK over the USB cable.
Note: If your personal computer is a Mac, you need to
install a free software program, Android File Transfer
(AFT), on your computer before you can transfer files
to and from your NOOK. AFT is available here:
android.com/filetransfer/.
If your computer is a PC, it automatically detects your
NOOK and installs the software drivers it needs, if they
are not already installed.
To sideload content:
1. Connect your NOOK's USB cable to a USB port on
your computer.
NOOK by Barnes & Noble
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your device's
Charger/Accessory Port on the bottom edge of your
NOOK.

Once you have connected your NOOK to your
computer, you can access your NOOK's storage
as though it were another drive connected to
your computer. The My Files subfolder folder
in the NOOK folder is for personal files you
have not purchased through the NOOK Store.
For example, if you have created PDFs on your
computer and want to view them on your NOOK,
you can drag them to the My Files folder.
3. Select the files you want to transfer from your
computer, then drag and drop them from your
computer to the My Files subfolder on your NOOK.
