[Q] Accesing the McroSD card via USB? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed a Micro SD card in my TF and cannot figure out how to access it while connected to my pc VIA USB cable? When I plug it in the PC does recognize the transformer but does not see the micro sd card? Also Asus sync starts up and i dont want to run it, is there a way to remove this program or stop it from starting up?
Any input would be appreciated, thanks.

Found out the answer to half my question. The Micro SD card is actually listed as a folder inside the TF as opposed to a secondary drive.
Now just to figure out how to get rid of this Asus SYNC bloatware...

Please assist with micro sd card with bad blocks

Hey everyone,
I have a 1gb micro sd card. It apparently has bad blocks and cannot be recognized by my 8525 (WM6.1), vista pc or xp sp2 pc. I have the programs to recover the info on it, but none of these programs are effective because the card doesn't show up as a drive.
I am attempting to access the card directly from the phone. With the pc's I have an usb adapter that I know works because I use it for my 8gb micro sd card to swap information.
Can some one give me an answer on how to either fix the bad blocks or make the card recognizable by the ppc or pc's? The recovery programs I have say they will get info off a formated card, but I can't format what the phone or pc's doesn't recognize.
Thanks.
which apps did you try?
if if i'm not mistaken i managed to recover a card using Active Recovery 7
The easiest way for me was, plug your card back to where it gave you a bad blocks, and it should be readable, then backup your datas there,.
this is what i did to my 2GB miniSD for Olympus e520 SLR Camera (the camera lost now),.
I plug it in to my friend laptop, then it cant be readable by any device, then i plug it again, and its readable, then i back it up, then i leave the miniSD,.
Hey G, Thanks for the reply. The card went bad in a digital camera. So I should place the microsd card in the camera, use the usb cord to connect to the pc, remove the usb cord once the card doesn't read, then reconnect the usb cord?

[Q] transfer files via USB from ubuntu?

I am trying to transfer music to the Transformer from my ubuntu laptop. When I plug in the USB, syslog shows the usb high speed device connect, but it won't mount. I don't know much about android, so I thought maybe if your device isn't rooted, you can't access the internal storage via USB. So I grabbed a micro sd I had laying around (an old 1Gb) and popped it in thinking I could access that... no dice. Is there a way to transfer music on this thing?
-Thanks!
You need MTP drivers.

It won't mount in Linux. There is a way to make your computer mount storage, but I usually just take my micro SD out (32gb) and pop it in a card reader. Maybe try another card.

transfer to where?

Hi
Quick question. So I want to transfer a video file from the computer to my EEE pad. Where does it get transferred to?
When I connect my EEE pad to my computer via the USB cable it seems only to recognise the SD card and not the internal storage. I want to be able to transfer my video to the internal storage.
Is that actually possible?
When you tether the TF to your PC via USB, the /sdcard folder is the internal memory.
That's correct, the removable SD card is referred to as the MicroSD.

If you take the micro SD card out and then connect it will transfer to main memory.
At least thats what happened to me when trying to transfer music and the SD card wasn't ....couldn't be read. Bad card I believe because my phone couldn't read it either and couldn't format it. I'll find out when I take it back tomorrow.

ASUS USB Kit and ASUS SD Card Reader

I recently Purchased the Asus External USB and External Card Reader. Both work excellent. My Question when using either external adaptor with a hard drive or sd card all files are easily accessed with the file manager but No Files (Pictures,Music,Movies) will sync with any Apps Like it does with the Micro Sd Card. Am I missing something or is there a walk around for this?

Copy from one USB-device to another with Asus Infinity

Hello,
New to Android and new to this forum. I have my TF700T two weeks now and I'm glad I bought it. My target is to copy the content of my Compact Flash cards (16GB each - from my DSLR) to a portable hard drive. Therefore I tried to connect both a card reader and a portable hard drive via an auto-powered USB-hub to the only usb-connection of my tablet. I even tried with another hub and even with a third hub. The only result was that my tablet only found the first device that was connected (regardless wich one: the CF-card or the HD) with the hub and not both at the same time, so copying from the CF-card to the drive isn't possible in one step. Sure I can copy the CF-card to the internal memory of the tablet and in a second pass move it to the HD, but that is very time-consuming.
Anyone who knows how to connect more then one usb-device at the same time via a powered USB-hub and do a file transfer between them? Your help is greatly appriciated.
You can use wi fi transfer to do it with a file manager, like file expert.

@tbtaf: When on vacation or on a photo trip I only have that portable hd, my tablet and a powered usb hub. I think a Wifi appraoch is not applicable then. Or am I missing something?
Sounds like you need to setup a second mount point for the additional device - don't know if that can actually be done or not, but I do know that some people who could not even connect the first device were able to manually specify the device by mounting it in a terminal window.
I'm not sure 100% on the code, but let me try to find out.
Or you could copy the 16 Gb CF card onto the pad's internal memory (or external MicroSD card), disconnect it, connect the HD and then copy it out again.

He already mentioned, he doesn't want to do this, he wants to copy straight.
For now, it's not possible since the powered hub or non power hub unable to recognize 2 devices at the same time.
CF, now there's nostalgia if anything. I thought those became outdated over 3 years ago... Fact is the CF is hardly compatible with mobile devices these days.
No, you can't copy from an external cardreader directly onto an external HDD through your tablet. It can only read 1 storage device in the USB port. Multiple devices works, but multiple storages doesn't. Some people have had some success with USB Flashdrives/Pendrives instead of HDD's though. You could try that.
You can copy from an SD to HDD easily though, so you could consider using an SD with a CF adapter if your camera has no SD slot. (SD's have the added advantage that the pins can't bent.)
