I downloaded SideSync for my Windows 10 computer, I've set it up. I can connect using the USB cable, and using USB it works fine. However, when I try to connect wirelessly the computer gives me a notification saying that the program must close, and then it closes. Does anyone have any information on what the issue might be?

Is anyone else having trouble getting their Samsung Galaxy S III (Verizon) to be recognized in their Windows 8 PC as a media device? I have explorer functionality when the phone is in camera mode but in media mode it does not appear in Computer.
I tried the phone on a Windows 7 PC and it works just fine, plug in play. I have downloaded the driver available on Samsung's website, but doesn't have mention of Windows 8 compatibility and during installation also prompts many messages of compatibility issues.
Thanks for your time and any help.
Also, the although I have file explorer functionality in USB camera mode, I am not able to transfer songs to the phone and a message is displayed by Windows that while in camera mode this type of transfer (music) is not compatible.
Did you try Kies air or try to somehow put the phone in compatibility mode to windows 7/vista?
For me MTP doesn't work well at all.
mine works fine.....I can see both internal and external sd cards and all the files on both of them.
Worked fine for me out of the box. Plugged it in and windows downloaded the driver, wanted a reboot and was fine since.
Works for me

Mine shows up but if I send over to many files at once it crashes the explorer.

Thanks for your replies guys.. I tried connecting the phone again to the computer this time into a different USB port and walah.. it shows up as a Portable Media Device. I'm back in business.
I connect a digital camera to my Note 10.1 (jelly bean) using a Samsung USB connector. The USB device is detected and a window opens with the contents of the device. Works great. When I'm finished, I tap the USB icon to safely remove the device. Later, if I reconnect the device, the USB Connected message is displayed, but no window with the contents opens. The file manager doesn't list the device. I can't get to the contents of the device unless I reboot and try again. This is repeatable.
Is there a way to reset the USB connection, find the device in "My Files", or get to the USB contents without rebooting between uses? Thanks for any ideas,
K.

You may have to re-boot the tablet.
Correct, rebooting works, but is that the only way? I hope not.

Try to connect the camera to the adapter first then connect to the tablet. I've had the same issue with some other devices and that fixed the problem.
I have the same problem and i get around it by running USB host diagnostics app. It an app from chainfire and its free on the market.

Thanks. I downloaded the USB app and I'm still having the same problem, I'll keep trying. BTW, turning the USB on before connection made no difference.

Problem solved. I uninstalled Avast Mobile. Now, I can reconnect the USB as many times as I want and the file window opens up each time. This is the behavior I expect.
Thanks all.

So this is very strange. When i use to plug my G2 into my mac and use Android File Transfer everything worked fine. Recently, I went to transfer some files over and I plugged my G2 into my macbook and it automatically chose the "PC Software" option and says "Installing PC Programs, check your computer." I go to select Media Sync (MTP) and it just automatically goes back to the PC software option. When i click Android file transfer it just tells me to plug in my USB. I have my drivers installed for my Mac and i've even tried it on my virtual terminal and the same thing keeps coming up. It's so annoying bc it use to work just fine.
Someone please help me
Have you tried a different USB cable?

Ya and same thing keeps happening. I am using the cable that came with the G2 when I got it. The same cable that I used when I use to be able to send stuff back and forth between android file transfer. It's very very strange
Hi. Got the phone a little over an hour ago. Loving it so far but I can not for the life of me get it to connect to my work PC. Drivers installed fine. Transfer Photos (PTP) works but others are not. Trying to get my music on the phone. Tried plugging the Pixel into my previous phone just not sure how to bring files over.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Did a window pop up on the phone to allow the phone to connect to computer?
PTP also works for me, but MTP doesn't. Ran through the Nexus toolkit, uninstalled/reinstalled and everything.
Same here. MTP not working, only PTP.
found this http://recomhub.com/blog/how-to-connect-google-pixel-and-pixel-xl-to-a-pc-computer/ I'm not able to install drivers though
EDIT:
Tried from a different pc running widows 10 and it worked right away
I just hit the USB notification on my phone and click file transfer, no issues on Windows 10.
Ok guys. I was able to fix the issue by uninstalling the device in Device manager and then uninstalling all android devices in USBDeview. After wich I restarted the pc then got the driver from the link I provided before. It's called latest usb drivers. I extracted them to my desktop and then I plugged in the phone. This time it worked and all the drivers got configured correctly. Hope this helps guys.
Just plugged mine in, works fine, no driver's to install, debian Sid ?

It works fine on my Windows 10. I plug it in to a USB3 port.
When I connect the USB cable to my Dell Precision M4800, I hear the 'device connected' tone, but then it immediately disconnects. It then proceeds to connect and reconnect at random, often very quick, intervals. Windows never attempts to install the drivers, and when I manually install the latest Samsung USB drivers, nothing changes.
Interestingly, the tablet says 'Connected as media device', but it is not showing up as storage in This PC. I think the rapid connect\disconnect cycles cause Windows to not even try to get a compatible driver, but I'm not sure what to do about it.
Has anyone else been able to connect a GT-8013 to Windows 10?

FYI, running Gnabo Rom, KitKat 4.4.
----- EDIT -----
I have a Windows 7 laptop (Dell XPS 15) that works flawlessly with the tablet. Hooks right up with no fuss.
Win 10 no problem.
Sounds more of a cable or usb port problem .

I agree. The laptop makes the tablet and cable 'known good'.
Try other USB ports on the troublesome PC; try updating the USB drivers (including the hub) and chipset.
