General :: File Transfer To MacBook - No Previews Of Pics / Videos?
Mar 19, 2014
Although I've had my Galaxy for a couple of months now, I'm still learning how to use it
One of my main queries is though, file transfer from my Galaxy to my MacBook Pro - why can't I see previews of what I'm transferring? I have to transfer the file to my MacBook, and then decide if I want to keep it or not because that's the only way it'll reveal what it is. I thought I'd be able to SEE what's on my phone to then be able to select what I want to transfer. But all I see are file names which as you know are always just like IMG_0000786597.jpg

I am a former blackberry user and I've been trying to figure out the file system in this droid. I need to be able to do some things and I'm not sure they can be done. I have some pictures and vids that I want to keep private. I am often showing my pics and vids to people and the ones I don't want to be seen are in the same folders. I have tried to move certain pics and vids to a different place using the phone itself, but I can't figure that out.
I was hoping that when I plugged up the phone to my PC it might recognize it like it does a camera or something but it doesn't. I even installed the motorola software but that didn't do anything. If I take the card out of the phone and put it directly in my PC, I can see it that way and modify things, but when I put it back in the phone nothing is as I had changed it on the PC.

Have a Samsung Galaxy ring, trying to transfer two pics via USB. The reason being is that I took those photos before I bought a micro SD card. With the card, all photos automatically go to the card and easily into my PC. However the first 2 pics aren't recognized and I thought I might use the USB. Tried it just by plugging in, I saw the files, but can't open any.

I know there are a lot of old threads but the seem to mostly be about syncing to the clouds, I have 32gb on my EVO LTE and I'm out of space. Iv beef using the cable and drag and dropping but its a pain. I would rather do over the air but I don't mind using the cable if I have to, I don't even care if its automatic. Also I have an old WD my book world edition if there is anyway to use that ?

Samsung Note 2. 16GB Samsung SDHC card. Not rooted. Stock ROM. The other day out of the blue, pops up and says "SD Card Blank/Unsupported Filesystem".
Attempting to put SD card in other phones = same result.
So trying to get it to connect to a computer. Yes, the adapter that I have supports SDHC cards.
Trying to run command prompt and it's not seeing the pathway to the drive (F.
Here's what's interesting to me...If I go START>COMPUTER>RIGHT CLICK>MANAGE>COMPUTER MANAGEMENT>DISK MANAGEMENT...IF I have the SD card connected to the computer, then that box freezes right there and stops responding...If I disconnect the SD card, box automatically pops up and shows the hard drives on the computer. Plug it back it, that box stops responding again.
Another intersting note...Now AUTOPLAY is attempting to pop up and run...it keeps running the bar back and forth like it's attempting to read, but then it just disappears. If I go to MY COMPUTER and look, I can see the F DRIVE there...but when I attempt to click on it...It just freezes that box as well, stops responding and I have to force close it.
With the AutoPlay kicking on and MY COMPUTER recognizing the F Drive, that leads me to believe that the card itself isn't 100% toast and recoverable...Has the controller module on the card gone out?
And FWIW, I have tried getting the card to read on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux and OS-X...The AutoPlay that it's doing now is on an XP machine. Obviously, I can't attempt to salvage any files if I can't get the computer to atleast recognize (and continue to recognize) the card.

I'd like to know if this is by design (it happens to everyone) or if something's just up with my phone.
Whenever I get an email with more than 5 images attached, thumbnails show up for only the first five. Any after that have an empty space where the thumb should be, but each image (first 5 AND any following images) has buttons to download or preview the image. So while I can conveniently get a good idea of what the first five images contain, I have to preview or download any following images to do the same, which requires opening the image in a separate image viewing app.
My phone's a Sprint Epic 4G Touch, with Gingerbread (2.3.3, I think), and I'm using the Gmail app, version 2.3.6.
Is there anywhere to change the number from 5 to something else?

I want to transfer some pics from my cpu to my Evo to use as wallpapers. Have a ton of them and do not feel like emailing them one by one. Can anyone give me a step by step on how to do this? Hopefully it is not that hard.

I was looking at the N1 on youtube and notice it's picture gallery which looks so nice. I went on the market to see if they have something similar....and yes they do. It's called 3d gallery. It's so much better than the gallery that came with the phone. If you've heard of cool iris that's what it basically is now for your phone. It works fine on the DINC. If this has been posted already just ignore and delete this thread.

I have connected it to the computer, sent pictures to the computer and viewed them fine. However some of the pictures I sent to the computer from the phone are not on the phone when I go back to it later. Where are they? On the SD card i assume, but how do I view the card on the phone, not through the computer?
And the pictures, and videos actually, are not stored in the Album either. One other question, someone in the forum said they use ATK sparingly. Any reason for using it sparingly, I think it is pretty good, but is it really?

I have I think a 16GB Micro SD card. But I can't seem to be able to use it. I can't save nothing on it, and when I installed this app Astro, a file manager, I still couldn't do nothing with it. My apps are saved to my phone, and the pictures I take with my phone and the videos are also saved into my phone. Only songs are saved into my SD card. Am I doing something wrong? or is the Micro SD card only made for songs, and not the pictures and the videos and the apps? I have an app to back up my information called m:IQ, and there it says I used up 46% phone memory, and only 2% of the Storage card. So can anybody tell me what's wrong exactly?

Sending pics and videos to a site for sharing is pretty easy. Now this is considering you have Photobucket and You Tube. Couldn't tell you about others. Basically after setting up your accounts with them, the camera software will send the pics to them thru the "share" option. Videos require a Wi-Fi connection. The new You Tube now does HD video, so they show up in high-quality 720p. Pretty much easy as can be. Sent a 15mb video in about a minute or so. Thought that was darn good.

I have a Samsung Fascinate and would like to transfer pictures and videos from my phone to my laptop. I try to use the Allshare app but my phone won't recognize my laptop for anything other than music. This is really weird and confusing.

I transfer some pics from my computer to my g1. I only had about 5 pictures total and then a few days later they all seemed to disappear except for one. Does anyone know what might have caused this or has this happened to anyone? I'm not really making a big deal out of it im just curious as to what might have happened?

If both people had the same app and of course had android... Like where I could upload something and they could download it like a mms, or would I have to use cloud sharing? Also which is the best cloud sharing and easiest for both pc and phone? Skybox/Cloud whatever microsoft calls it, dropbox or? I'd like one where I could upload everything from a pc with no transfer/UPLOADING required, just drag ad drop.

I've installed ftp server ultimate on my SE x10mp.
I've transferred a few file by ftp from my machine (running linux debian) to the mobile. Everything seemed ok, except that after a while the file disappeared.
I've ftped to the mobile with nautilus. Do I need to "cleanly" close the ftp connection on nautilus to avoid this issue?

i may totally be overlooking this but are the pics/vids sent via MMS stored. If they are on the SD card is there away to make an album? If they are not stored locally, is there an app that does this? I have SMS Backup, but i want the MMS files to be local on my SD card and in an album as all other pics/vids.
