I have my internal 16 gb all filled up about 95% and I bought a micro sd card which arrived today.
I began transferring media to the micro sd card under /removable/microsd/ and was able to transfer about 1gb so far of the possible 16gb.
i noticed when i would start a file transfer, i would get a pop up message saying the file "may be copied to the device for storage or transport use only. it is not supported for use on the device itself. if possible, use a media program that can convert the file before copying it. if you copy the file now, it will be stored on the device, but may not be presented in the device user interface."
however, i would get an error after saying theres not enough free space on the device when i began transferring my media.
wtf is going on and how do i transfer my media to the micro sd?
plug it into your PC and copy it to your PC then to microSD
yes, my tablet is hooked up to my pc. that is wherein lies the error messages i'm getting.
so it looks like when i cleared my micro sd and my internals and tried again it worked.
1) first i loaded my media onto the micro sd first
2) then i was able to transfer media to my internal storage
i find this strange because i was having errors loading to the micro sd card after my internal storage was filled up.
Where did you bought the microSDHC card? Did you tested it to full capacity and see if it's genuine?

I also get a message when trying to copy files to the microSDHC card (inserted in the TF) from the PC, but I just click to continue and they copy just fine.
yeah its real. transcend 16gb micro sdhc class 6 straight from amazon.
before i just bypass the message notification (hence loading about 2gb of media onto my micro sd).
when i tried to transfer more, i would get an error saying my storage was full. seems to be fluky.

I have a SanDisk 2GB Ultra II CF Card (that I purchased from a Staples) that I use in my PDA. I have a built in card-reader in my PC, and I use it to transfer files >> CF Card >> PDA. I formatted it in FAT32. I tried to transfer about 700MB of music that I own on my PC to the memory card...well, it worked, but it took 20 minutes just to transfer 700MB...when I should be seeing at least 3MB/sec. transfer speed...also today I transferred 17MB of map files for GPS use...and it too 35 seconds for 17MB of data. I haven't used an external USB Memory Card Reader...
But in ya'lls opinion, is something whack with my memory card? Or could it be the internal reader/writer? ...it never gets stuck during a transfer or anything like that. Transfers just fine, except it is slow as can be.
Thanks in advance.

I just got a new 16 gb miro sdhc by sandisk. i also am using it in my htc touch pro form verizon which says it will support up to 16gb chips. but every time i try to put a movie on my card through usb into the phone, i get a i/o error. It also happens when i put music on there some times. What do i need to do to get this to work?
Have you tried it with a card reader already?

Hmmm...officially your phone is supposed to support upto 32GB. What does the error message read again? How are you trying to transfer media from your desktop to your phone? What happens if you were to pop your memory card onto your computer and directly put stuff onto it?
I got the same error on my new card today as well. However, if I transfer directly from PC into the phone via activesync, the phone recognizes the card and works ok. It is only when trying to transfer from the PC to the card via a card reader that it does not work and gives the error. I suspect that the adapter I have is for a MicroSD card, not a MicroSDHC, and that might be what is causing the error, or that the card reader built into my computer cannot work with the SDHC format, only the normal low density format. Of course, this is just a guess, since I can transfer via activesync all is OK.
I have a 16GB SanDisk micro sdhc card that I use constantly in my incredible. It has all my songs, pictures, application and widget files and my phone cannot access it. It attempts to read the card then says 'card unexpectedly removed.' I suffered with that all day hoping that I could get home and try to copy the files to my pc and then format the sd card. Then my pc wouldn't recognize the card either. Once I plug it in, the autoplay would start reading the files, then it would stop and a message pops up saying 'please insert a disk into drive H.' It would not allow me to open up the drive, let alone copy any files from it. Nor could I format the card either.
Does anyone have any good information on how to either get my files back by getting the card working again, or by formatting the card, as i can do neither one at the moment.
Thanks,
Merry Xmas
I have both a Vibrant and a Galaxy S 4g. The Vibrant had a broken screen and I got the 4g while waiting for parts.
On the Vibrant, when I connect the phone to the computer with the USB cable, Windows shows two external drives, the internal SD card and the external SD card. On the 4g, Windows only displays the contents of the internal SD card. I used the same external SD card on both phones.
I have tried reformatting the external SD card but it still does not show up in Windows Explorer for the 4g phone.
the sgs4g will only display 1 drive and that should be the ext sd card it does not display internal.
vibrant shows two because the internal is 16gb and it show external cuz its an ext sd card
The one it displays looks like the internal sd card, because the external card just had music and some backup files on it. The phone seemed to be seeing the external card though, because all of the music was there.
you only the external memory on the sgs4g. all of your music is stored on your sd card, which is why you can see it.
Well, imagine that i have that card but it seems to be dead or so, when i use an adapter and put it into my laptop's card reader, or i use the USB card adapter i cannot get the card shown in windows explorer of my Win 7 x64.
When i go to Computer Management > Disk Management, the card is not shown on the top window, but on the bottom one, it is shown, but when i right click on it there is nothing i can do except of changing drive letter.
Any ways of reanimating, reformatting the card? I do not care about the data in it, i want the card to be usable. Thanks
Anyone?
you need a update please check your windows update there is ad update for support of sd up 32 GB
Well, the card is 64 GB, not up to 32.
What i mean that this card used to work before, i could transfer files to it, but then after a month i cannot access it
