desktop computer. For computer system requirements for using USB Drive

After you copy a file to your device, you can open the file if your device
has an application that supports the file type. You can open many file
formats for photos, videos, and music; Microsoft Office files; and PDF
files. You can also copy ringtones that you download from your
computer's web browser.

backed up to your HP webOS Account, and they cannot sync to any of your
online accounts. So be sure to keep a copy of all such files somewhere besides
your device just in case you lose your device or you must do a full erase of the
