For transferring files and syncing music and movies between your computer and the Droid 2, there’s a micro USB port on the upper-left side. A micro USB port is much smaller than the normal one on devices such as printers. To connect the Droid 2 to your computer, you’ll need a micro USB cable, one of which comes in the Droid 2’s box. The Droid 2 can connect to both Macs and PCs. When you connect your Droid 2 to a computer by USB cable, your phone gets power and charge from the computer. But it charges at a much slower rate than when you use the normal charger.

Tip
When you connect your Droid 2 to a PC for the first time, your PC may not recognize it. That’s because your PC may need special drivers (small pieces of software) to communicate with the Droid 2. Windows will try its mightiest to find the drivers, but there’s a chance it won’t be able to locate them. If it doesn’t, you can go over to the Motorola website (www.motorola.com) and search for Droid 2 drivers. Then download them and follow the instructions for installing them. You can also download the drivers directly from http://bit.ly/brh0YH. (Mac fans, you’re out of luck this time. At this writing, iSync doesn’t work with the Droid 2. But then, if you’re a Mac fan, you probably have an iPhone.)
