Transferring files to your device

You can transfer personal files, for example photos or music files, to the TomTom BRIDGE internal memory. This allows you to use apps on the device to view photos or play music.

Note: Not all file types can be opened by the device.

Note: You can transfer files from a computer running one of the following operating systems:
- Windows 7 or higher
- Apple OS X 10.5 or higher
- Some Linux distributions of version 14.04 or higher.

To transfer files to the device, do the following steps:

  1. Connect the TomTom BRIDGE to your computer using the USB cable supplied with your device, then switch your device on.

    Note: Use ONLY the USB cable supplied with your device. Other USB cables may not work.

    Note: You cannot use the mount to connect your device to your computer.

    Note: You should plug the USB cable directly into a USB port on your computer and not into a USB hub or USB port on a keyboard or monitor.

  2. On your computer, open a file manager program.

    Your device appears in your computer's files system as TomTom Bridge.

  3. Open your device's Internal Storage folder.
  4. Copy files from your computer to a folder on your device.

    Tip: To keep the device organized, copy the files to a folder with a relevant name. For example, copy your music files to the Music folder.

  5. Disconnect the device from your computer.

    Tip: You can remove all the files you copied to the device by clearing your personal data.
