Getting contacts and other content into
HTC One max
Aside from the HTC Transfer Tool, there are other ways you can add contacts and
other content to HTC One max.
Sync with your
computer
Use HTC Sync Manager to sync contacts, documents, playlists,
and more between HTC One max and your computer running a
Windows
®
or Mac OS
®
operating system.
You can also use it to transfer contacts, messages, and other
content from an iPhone to your computer, and then to your
HTC One max.
Google
®
Account Google contacts are imported to HTC One max after you sign in
to your Google Account. You can also create more Google
contacts right from HTC One max.
Social network
accounts
Log in to your favorite social networks to sync contact
information from them.
Microsoft
®
Exchange
ActiveSync
®
HTC One max syncs your work contacts from the Microsoft
Exchange ActiveSync Server in your workplace.
Phone contacts You can create contacts locally on HTC One max, if you don't
prefer to store them on your online accounts.
SIM card Copy all your SIM contacts to HTC One max.
Transferring photos, videos, and music
between your phone and computer
There are two ways you can transfer your media from or to your computer.
§ Connect HTC One max to your computer. Your computer will recognize it just
like any removable USB drive, and you can copy your media between them.
§ Download and use the HTC Sync Manager software on your computer. You can
set it up to automatically get music, photos, and videos off HTC One max to
your computer. You can also sync playlists from your computer to the phone.
If you have an iPhone, you can even connect it and transfer the camera roll
(photos and videos) to your computer. Then reconnect HTC One max and copy
them over.
Tired of keeping copies of your media in several places? Use online storage services
to put your media in one place so you can manage them anywhere — on your
computer, HTC One max, and other mobile devices.
Go to Settings, and then tap Accounts & sync > to check first what online storage
accounts are available on HTC One max and sign in to the one you want to use. Use
the Gallery app to access media in your online storage.
