[Q] Flytouch II change browser to save to /local/Download

For my old flytouch II. When I put an SD card in slot 2, and try to tell dolphin HD to save to /mnt/sdcard2 it allows me to save the setting, but downloads will not start "not enough space".
I tried to do /local/Download as the save location and it tells me "An SD card is required to download" if I try to download anything
I've verified that /local/Download is a correct folder and if I browse to that location using root explorer it takes me to the download folder I've created on my internal storage just fine.
If I put an SD Card into the 1st sd card slot, the file downloads just fine and even downloads to the correct area of the local folder, /local/Download but I have to have an SD Card in the tablet's #1 SD card slot for it to even start the download.
The problem with this, I keep the SD card slot in #2 because if you restart with a card in #1 then it tries to boot off the sd card, so keeping the card in #2 allows me to not have to worry about removing the card during every restart of the device.
I would like to not have to have an SD card in at all.
TL;DR - Flytouch 2 gives error "An SD card is required to download" even when dolphin browser is set to save to /local/Download unless I have an SD card in.
Files save to /local/Download just fine if I have an SD card in slot 1, not slot 2.

System Volume Information is a standard system folder that you will find on every partition of a modern Windows system. It stores things like recovery data. Did you even do a search at all? http://www.bing.com/search?q="System+volume+information"
Did you check the Music folder on the SD card to see if the files had been transferred there? Did you check the used space on the card to see if the multiple gigabytes that many songs would have taken up were consumed? Sorry if these seem like really basic questions, but I can't make assumptions here.
Format failing is weird, but the next step I'd try would be to un-mount the card. Use Disk Management (diskmgmt.msc) or the command-line tool mountvol.exe (run CMD or Powershell as Admin) to remove the drive mapping, then try Disk Management, diskpart.exe, or the format command. Use the volume name if you need to (after un-mounting, there won't be a drive letter or mount point, of course).

SD card recognition

Hey guys,I am running cmod12 on my Galaxy note n7000, but it stopped recognising my SD card for some reason. When I open apps that are linked to my SD card storage it says "please insert the SD card", I have about 40 songs on my SD card,but whether I open the app called music it doesn't show any of the songs,but their strangest thing is that when I open file manager it shows all the files on my SD card, any help?

empty/hidden folders in "Device\storage" can't access Sd card

Hey
With the new android update for this phone i can no longer browse to the sd card via the directory of device\
usually there is a link to the external sd card in device\storage but now its all empty there and i can only access the internal storage via Device\sdcard.
If i use a file browser like Es media then u can select the external sd card directly and access it. But the problem im having is when im in simple apps like ePSXe it wont let me reach the external sd card since i have to manually browse to it but there is no shortcuts to it anywhere. There was one app that allowed the full path to be manually added which worked since the folders are hidden or something.
Its like samsung have hidden the folders link to the external card.
Is there a way to create a shortcut from the internal storage that point to "device\storage\D8C7--9661" (which is my external sd card)?
