File Sharing (View, share and store documents)

You no longer need to carry around a USB memory stick to copy and share files from one computer to another. Instead, turn your iPhone or iPod Touch into a wifi drive using File Sharing.

File Sharing allows you to easily transfer files to and from your iPhone or iPod Touch over your Wi-Fi connection by accessing it as if it were a drive, from within Windows Explorer or Finder.

If you prefer, you can also upload and download files from your web browser.

What is more, once the files are on your iPhone or iPod Touch, you can view them, making your device a portable file viewer.

File Sharing can view the following file types:

• Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx)
• Microsoft Excel (.xls, .xlsx, .csv)
• Microsoft PowerPoint (.ppt)
• PDF Files (.pdf)
• iWork Pages documents (.pages)
• Safari Web Archives (.webarchive)
• Web Pages (.htm, .html)
• Text Files (.txt, .cpp, .c, .m, .h)
• Graphic Files (.bmp, .gif, .png, .jpg)
• Movie files (.mp4, .mov)

You can also use File Sharing to watch movies. Just copy a .mp4 or .mov file into File Sharing and its ready for you to view.

If you use File Sharing to view large documents, File Sharing will remember the last page you viewed and will scroll straight to that page the next time you open the document.
