Sync music and videos between your phone and computer
If you have music or videos stored on your computer, but want to access them on your phone, use a
USB cable to sync the media between your phone and computer.
1. Connect your phone to a compatible computer with a USB cable.
2. In your computer's file manager, such as Windows Explorer or Finder, drag and drop your songs
and videos to your phone.
Tip: If your computer's operating system is Windows 7, Windows 8, or Windows 8.1, you can also
use the Windows Phone app. Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 install the app automatically when you
connect your phone to your computer. For more information, go to support.microsoft.com.
Tip: If your computer's operating system is Mac, you can use the Lumia Photo Transfer for Mac
app to transfer your photos and videos. For more information, go to www.microsoft.com/en-
us/mobile/support/product/nokia-photo-transfer-for-mac/.
