[Q] Content is microSD not seen

I use PC to copy movies to a microSD.
Astro cannot see anything, saying the directory (mnt/sdcard/external) is empty, but report the size taken correctly, and I cannot copy anything to it.
Any help?

Try taking out the SD card, turning the device off, putting the SD card back in, turning the device back on.

No micro SD support if you are stock. Its coming one day. Not with this update. If you are rooted ignore me.

Have you tried a different file explorer? Which kernel are you using? Also what format is they SD card in?

Pic transfer from LG2X to computer??

I saved a lot of pics to my LG2X phone(not memory card) and im looking to transfer them to my IMAC.
Whats a good alternative to do this???Any apps???
I tried through bluetooth share but it keeps working for a while and then disconnects.
Any frickin" ideas people???? Plz let me know.

Can you use root explorer to more the photos to the internal sd card and then do a usb transfer?
Or can you use androzip to zip up the photos and email the zip?

No i have not.I guess root explorer would be an option to tinker with.There are like 240 photos and videos.Dont think that zipping them up would work.Will try root explorer.

Silly question. Where are photos stored using the stock camera and rom?
Edit...ignore my dumb ass question. Found it. Feel slow.

Got it figured out with ESEXPLORER. Was able to copy the photos from the phone to sd card and then to computer. Thanks for the idea guys!!

When you connect the phone to your computer via USB does it not mount both internal and external storage so you can browse it with your computer? Mine mounts them as 2 separate drives.

It mounts them on a Mac, but iPhoto (apple photo app) will not read the external drive to import the photos, I'm guessing that's the issue since this happens to me to on my iMac.

Both of them mount fine on my wife's macbook pro and iphoto reads them with no issues. What file format is your external card formatted to?

Dropbox?

Can't access to my files from tablet to computer only old photo not showing all

Hello guys. I believe before I would able to go Computer, GT-N8013 then select both hard drive and able to access all my pic and video now it doesn't show new pic and some of older pic i had this problem for a while. I'm not sure if it's because I upgraded the version but I did remember
I did a factory reset. Also seem to be a bit slow to load up preview in gallary. Os I use is Windows 7 and Window 8. I want to view all the files. Any idea? Yes the new photos is in my gallery.

Have you installed Samsung USB drivers or Kies ???
jje

I had a problem recently where I could see photos in the gallery on my Note but the PC could not read the SD card either by USB connection or by plugging the SD card directly into the PC card reader. I only realised there was a problem when I could not delete a photo from the tablet!
The solution for me was to reformat the SD card on the PC (the format card option on the tablet had no effect) and then (sigh) copy all 16gb off photos back to the card.
If your problem is with the internal storage then this doesn't really help but ultimately it may be worth considering reformatting the internal SD storage.

Well I am able to delete photo on the tablet. Problem is I am able to access the internal and external memory except the new photo it wont show up if i connect to computer but does show up the old picture. Another thing is on my S2 once i changed back to stock rom i have same problem. What I can do is zip all the pic of internal then upload to a host website. I didn't had this problem with my Samsung Galaxy note tablet on 16gb now I have the 32 gb tablet since i got rid of 16gb version in Mexico. Kies is a no go. I'll try samsung driver but thing is my computer do detect the device and able to access the old files and files i put in.

So I understand you want you files and the card to work on the phone?
The phone supports FAT32 file system, if i'm not mistaken so you should format it to that.
Does a pc read the files on the card? Cause if so, then first copy them to you pc and after formatting back on the card.

Does the pc see the card and tell you it needs to be formatted or doesn't it even show on your pc?
If it doesn't even show up, you could be talking about a broken reader of your computer or a broken card.
If it shows up but you can''t acces, than it might be recoverable.

If not try on another pc first!

If your laptop's card reader is ok then check it form the device manager. Do you remember about setting any password to your MMC??
I've seen most of the PC doesn't show a password protected MMC.

Try testdisk (cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk), maybe it can recover your partition table.
Good Luck!

My S7 can't read my sd card

Hi guys !
I just have reveived my new Galaxy S7 (SM-G935F) and I'm disappointed that it doesn't recognize any music, photos or videos from my SD card, it says that it needs to be on the phone to be read.
So my question is if there is any way or even a custom ROM to resolve that problem.
Thank you in advance. :good:

Should be able to read media from the MicroSD card
Copy all media from the card to your PC
Format the card to FAT32
Put it in the phone
Connect phone to PC USB
Copy everything back across

100% user error because it works fine on my s7. Try to format the sd card or try to eject it and put it in again.

The sd card are recognize and I can explore the file and open music, photos or videos BUT ONLY in the file explorer . In the music, video or in the gallery apps, music, video and photos that are on the SD card are not detect, they must be on the phone to be read on the music player or gallery apps .
