Preliminary Layla850 P1B
File manager
With the File manager you can view, rename, copy, move, and
delete files and folders on the P910a. You can also add folders,
send files and rename and format the Memory Stick.
Initially, the root view is shown, with the sub folders:
•
Audio , where all audio files are stored.
• Document , where different document files are stored.
•
Image , where all images, pictures as well as drawings, are
stored.
• Other , where all files not applicable for the other folders are
stored.
•
Video , where all video clips are stored.
Using the folder menu, you can select between the internal
storage and the external storage, that is, the Memory Stick. The
path to the selected folder is shown at the top of the window.
Note There is an important distinction between
External media
and External other . External other lets you view folders that have
been placed on the Memory Stick by other equipment, such as
digital cameras. This is the only place where these folders can
be viewed.
From the file manager it is possible to reach the Control Panel
storage manager, see ‘Storage manager’ on page 167. You can
also format the Memory Stick, see ‘Formatting a Memory Stick’
on page 22.
