Hi folks,
I have thread thru almost all threads in the activesync search but can't find the answer to the following:
I have created many notes files saved in the sd card and whenever I sync the notes into outlook, it doesn't appear there. It seems that it will only sync notes files created in my documents in the device and not those saved in sd card. Is it possible to sync files from sd card into the computer as well? Are there other ways of backing up sd card files besides the tedium of having to manually copy them onto the hard disk of the computer?
Would appreciate some kind advice.
Cheers
Vic

I'm wanting to backup & format my SD card following a problem with Sense not loading described in another thread. Having read various threads about this problem it seems that some, if not all, revolve around issues with the SD card.
Through File Explorer, on the phone, I've selected ''Show all Files'' from within my SD card directory. However after connecting my phone to my PC thru active sync there are some files that are visible on my phone in the SD card directory which aren't visible in the SD card folder on my PC screen. I've tried to find the show all files setting on my pc but haven't been able to.
Thing is I don't want to backup my card then format it and possibly not backup all files that are present on the card.
Any help appreciated.
Hi there,
Two days ago I copied all the files on my SD card to my laptop, changed my card from a 2Gb one to a 8Gb and copied all the files back again onto the new SD card. I never even looked for hidden files neither on the phone nor on the laptop and it all went without any problems and all is working fine.
For sake of good order, I can't guarantee it will work with you as well, but it should.
Bye,
Itamar

Hi, thx for the reply. Think I'm just gonna bite the bullet and go ahead.
Just got a Flyer wi-fi model. Synced with my computer and transfered IE favorites to the Flyer. Have no idea where they are located. When I open the stock internet program it is not there. Any help would be appreciated. I'd like it integrated with the internet program. I have Firefox installed but doesn't seem to have favorites section that I can find.
In addition how can I access the SD card I put in the Flyer from the Flyer. Thanks for your help.

I think you will find that HTC Sync created a new bookmark folder on your PC and only items you place in that folder are synced.
The external SD card shows up as sdcard2 at the root level for Root explorer file manager.
Apps by default use the internal SD card for data storage.
I don't quite understand about creating the favorites on my computer. But if it did how do I transfer it to my Flyer and where do I put the folder? What do you use to find the SD card?
When i connect USB cable to my SGS3 to access content of external SD card I see multiple duplicates of folders on the root of the card. There are 3-5 instances of all folders on root of the card with exactly the same names. Some folders are empty, some of them have files without extensions, some of them seem to be real folders with real content in them.
I have tried to checkdisk with error fixing on my PC for this card in a card reader. It didn't help. The folders, when card is used in a card reader are OK, they aren't having any duplicates. I have tried to format SD card for a few times already and then transfer my data from PC to card again, it didn't help and was getting worse after each such try as the number of folder duplicates was just increasing then.
ES File Explorer isn't showing any duplicates.
This thing is really annoying and makes me mad.
Please suggest me any cure for that. Thanks in advance
MTP mode is heavily flawed, hopefully an update fixes it.
If you're rooted you can use Easy UMS Apk (see General section) to mount the external Sd in Mass storage mode on your computer

Thanks, it seems to work
Hi, I'm coming from a SGS i9000b to a SGS3, and I neved had problems before syncing photos from the external sdcard to my computer when connecting my phone via USB, but now it reads the internal sd memory only (which is empty, since I decided to store photos on the external sd to save space).
Anyone know how to fix this?
I'm using the UK BLG8 firmware version, and my PC's running Windows 7.
Thx.
Check the settings when you open Dropbox app
Use thanks button if I helped
No, I'm not having problems with uploading (I guess I'll have to change the thread title)
The problem is that photos from the external sd card wont sync with my computer when connecting the phone via USB through the dropbox PC program.
I hope I make myself clear.
Basically, my SD Card recently got corrupted. However, the good news is that the files are not lost. I am unable to play the files while on SD Card, however, I am able to move them to Device Storage, and access them.
Also, I am not able to add anything to SD Card.
Now the issue is I have over 4000+ videos and pictures on an application known as Gallery Vault. It consists of a total of 70gb. Therefore, I am unble to remove the file to device storage as I have a very limited device storage.
Can I manage to simply move all the files from Gallery Vault on my SD Card directly to my PC?
