I wish to use my tablet as a photo album. I have purchased a 64g micro sd card and placed a large number of folders and sub folders onto it from my laptop. I want to keep them in the same folder format as I have them on my laptop. Despite downloading and trying many " file manager" type apps I can not find a way for my Amazon Fire HD 8 (7th Generation) to open my photos in the same folder format as they are when I open the SD card on my HP laptop. can anyone offer and suggestions.

Hi I have created a folder on the micro sd card called books and then transferred some documents from my pc onto it.
When I try to open the files on the phone it only gives me the option to open them via open office but it says it does not support files over a certain size.I would like to view them like I do on my pc, that is with Adobe reader. I have Adobe installed so how do I get the files to view with it ?
Thanks
UplI have my TF700(which I nicknamed The Beast), for a few days and I need help with understanding setting up my 32 GB MicroSD card.
A few days after getting my TF700, my ordered SanDisk 32GB card came in the nail.
I did not reformat it, as it seemed to work fine.
Now comes my confusion.
With the new card inside, I did the USB connection thing to my Windows computer.
It immediately said loading drivers and in Computer, I. saw two new drives listed.
One the internal storage, the other the MicroSD card.
I created a couple of folders and copied over the contents of two CD worth of songs, all in Ogg audio format to the card. No problems.
I opened up Poweramp on my TF700, had it scan for music and it found my Ogg audio files.
Poweramp works great and plays everything. store my music in only Flac and Ogg formats.
Plugged in my headphones and the music sounded incredible.
Now the weird stuff.
I wanted to move some data files over to my card. Plan to have the volatile data files on the card and the more static apps on the internal storage.
I opened File Expert on my TF700 and it was bizarre. I see these folders showing that are shown as being on my external card, but in reality, they are not.
There is a mnt folder and inside that is the SDCARD folder.
Then when I go back in File Expert and select the Internal storage, I see a folder called removable and sub folder of that called MicroSD. I opened it and there are where my real MicroSD files are.
What the heck happened?
No problems redoing things, but I don't understand. Did I need to reformat my card inside the TF700?.
Thanks in advance.

That's just the way asus tablets handle external storage (it could be the same with other tablets but I only had a prime and this). You're fine. You could use asus's stock file manager app to get to your microsd card easier.
I don't use File Explorer, but ES File Explorer, but I don't think it makes a difference, but might.
Anyway, on the TF700T when using a file explorer the internal storage is SD card. The microSDHC is actually underable "removable" storage. You'll see both listed when you hit the root directory. It took me a few minutes to figure it out.
Hello ,
with the Amazon Instant Video app one can now save movies and view offline .
However, that fills my internal memory very quickly. Therefore, I would like to outsource the location via " Folder Mount " to the SD card .
But I just do not find the folder where the movies are stored .
Can someone maybe hell me?

Amazon instant video uses DRM so even if you were to find the right folder, you wouldn't be able to watch the video in another player or move it unless you can move the app to SD card
Hello basically I've sort of made a mess of an external hard drive with photos going back to the 1950's
I used my external hard drive to do a backup of my phone. Here is where I'm at.
If I plug the Hard drive into my pc I have lots of Huawei folders/ 2 pictures folders / steam folder and epic games folder.
I can view my steam and epic games folder fine.
But both pictures folders show up with hidden album ( I've applied show hidden files etc in Windows explorer)
So no luck with my Pc.
But if I connect the USB drive to an otg cable I can view 400gb of photos going back to 1950's up to 2021.
I didn't t want to mess them up so phoned Huawei ( useless)
I can move folders one at a time from the hard drive onto phone internal storage then copy to phone/ repeat.
But I don't know which folder to move them to.
As in move from hard drive / choose another location /???
If anyone knows what folder to move to, so they will be in the right place when I connect phone to PC I can transfer them too.
Thank you.
Solved.
Otg cable with USB ports.
Bought a Nano memory card.
Connected hard drive to Otg USB port.
Transferred photos from hard drive to nano memory card.
Windows now recognises photos and are currently being backed up to a Nvme drive )
