Formatting a Memory Stick Duo
If you need to reformat a Memory Stick Duo, select
Control
Panel > Other > Format disk
, or select
File manager > File > Format
disk
. When you format a disk, you delete all the information on
it, including any applications that you may have installed.
Sharing data with other devices
Your P908 uses the shorter memory stick variant, Memory Stick
Duo.
Memory Stick Duo Adapter
Use the Memory Stick Duo adapter when using your Memory
Stick Duo in a device equipped with a regular sized Memory
Stick, for example a personal computer. Insert your Memory
Stick Duo according to the picture on the adapter.
Warning! Do not insert a Memory Stick Duo adapter without a
Memory Stick Duo into a Memory Stick slot. This may damage
the product. Always insert the adapter in the slot with the
connector end (marked with a triangle) first.
Compatibility
The P908 defines its own folder structure on a Memory Stick.
Each application has its own set of folders. A folder created in
one application is not visible in another.
Other devices must access the same folder structure to interact
with the P908 files. If you are using a PC, this is easily done by
browsing to the required folder on the Memory Stick.
Memory Stick enabled devices which do not allow you to
browse and manage a folder structure may not be able to share
data directly with the applications in your P908 (for example,
Memory Stick enabled digital cameras). However, the File
Manager can access these files and move them into the correct
folders for use by the applications. When your P908 is
connected to your PC, you also have access to the P908 folder
structure as well as other Memory Stick Duo content in
My P908
.
Personal computer support
Both PCs and Apple computers may be enabled for Memory
Stick use via built-in Memory Stick slots, Floppy Disk adapters,
PC card adapters, and Memory Stick enabled mouses. (Memory
Stick Duo Adapter required.)
