Sony Ericsson P900 User Guide - Page 27

This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use. General functions Application launcher views In Flip open, the P900 can present the applications in two ways: • List view (small icons appear in one column) • Icon view (large icons appear in two columns) For each application there is a default Unfiled folder. Since there is no way of seeing on your P900, whether a file in an Unfiled folder is located on your P900 or on a Memory Stick, we recommend that you move files to your own folders as soon as possible. Every item created in an application is always assigned to a single folder, by default the same folder as displayed in the list view. Folders Folders are used to organize information, for example contacts, jotter entries, or task lists. You might want to organize your contacts in business and personal folders. Folders are also used when managing files of different types on your P900 and Memory Stick Duo. You might want to move or copy sound files into a sound track folder to store on a Memory Stick Duo. As you may notice, if you connect your P900 to a PC and view the contents of your P900 in My P900, it is easier to get an overview of a folder and file structure on a large screen than on a handheld device. If you make it a habit to set up specific folders to suit your needs and use them to categorise all your information, working with it becomes easy. Each application has its own set of folders. A folder created in one application is not visible in another. In list view, the folder menu is used to organise your entries. In detail view, the folder menu allows you to change the folder of the current item. Using the folder menu In the applications that use folders you can see the folder menu to the right in the menu bar. When a Memory Stick Duo is available in the P900, the folders on it are shown in the folder menu under the divider. If you rename the disk (see 'Renaming a Memory Stick Duo' on page 21) the divider will show the new name. In list view, there is a super-folder called All, which, when selected, displays items from all folders (in Contacts, the All folder does not display the entries in the SIM phone book). All is the default value in list views and when an application is first launched. Getting to know your P900 27
