The only way is change in the most programs everything to save default to SD-card instead of the main memory and/or make a directory My Docu on the SD there.
Maybe change registry settings is an option..

I just got this external SD card installed, but I can't figure out how to move media files off my internal onto my external within the phone (Astro).
I saw the external SD folder under the SD card, but I couldn't move files to it within the phone. I ultimately plugged in Mass Storage and I saw two different external drives and I moved it that way. That took a long time to move 7 gbs.
Any other way to do it?
Use my files that is right there in apps built in long press on the file or folder you want. There are other apps on the market that work but that is there.

Or move.

Astro doesn't allow me to move them from internal to external either. Never has. I just use root explorer or file manager. I assume its something to do with permissions but I never cared enough to look into it.
so its my understanding that when you use apps 2 sd it stores them in the android secure file on my sd . now if thats wrong all together then what exactly is that folder for ? is it my titanium backup files ? Anyway my question is if im not relying on my apps to sd back up anymore i.e all of my apps are on my internal hard drive and the apk files exist in another folder on the sd card can i get rid of those files in the adroid secure folder on my sd card ? its taking up 7.5 gb of my 8 gb sd card so i have no room to add anything and half of the apps in there i already uninstlled from my phone but yet they still are taking up all the room on my sd card....
delete all third party apps.. except those present in the stock rom
Just delete the folder. I would back it up first, just in case. If all of your apps are on internal storage, you should be fine.
If that doesn't work, move everything on your SD card to your computer and format the card. Then move whatever you need back to the card.
Hi guys,
Do you know how to set external sd card as the main location for data files? I'm looking for moving Android folder from internal memory to external sd card.

Hi,
Format the card to FAT32.
Just put your own files/folders on the card.
Android will put on the files/folders it needs.

Hello,
I'd like to create a shortcut or link inside the internal memory folder to point to the external SD card. (Like a shortcut in Windows Explorer.) If I have to use symbolic link I will but I'm afraid this would mess up some apps that scan the internal memory (send it into a circular loop.) I am trying to access the SD card quickly from within the internal disk, when any app shows me that folder. (Basically some apps like CameraMX are STILL failing to show the SD card, even with Root.)
Can anyone help me create the shortcut or link? My mount point for SD is: root/mnt/media_rw/6664-6330. My filesystem is NTFS.
I have: Root Explorer, Solid Explorer, MiX, Terminal.
I tried searching google and XDA but it's hard to eliminate threads talking about the homescreen or adoptable storage. Sorry if this has already been discussed.
