Overview

While your BlackBerry smartphone is connected to your computer through a USB connection, mass storage mode allows you to transfer files between your media card and your computer using Windows Explorer (My Computer) or Mac OSX.

Note: When mass storage mode is on and the device is connected to an external device using a USB cable, applications on the device cannot access the files on the media card.

For BlackBerry 10 smartphones connected to a computer via USB:

  • If mass storage mode is turned off: the device memory and the media card (if applicable) appear as mapped network drives. Files can be accessed, moved or copied between the device, the media card, and the computer using these network drives. This feature is only available in BlackBerry 10 OS.
  • If mass storage mode is turned on: the media card appears on your computer as a removable disk when connected to the computer via USB. The device memory does not appear as a mapped network drive on the computer. BlackBerry Link will not be able to connect to the BlackBerry 10 smartphone.

Mass storage mode must be turned on in order to use certain features and tools of the BlackBerry Desktop Manager such as BlackBerry Media Sync and Roxio Media Manager for BlackBerry smartphones. For instructions on how to manually turn on or turn off mass storage mode, see Article 13564.
