(Q) Saving a file directly to sdcard or phone. - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but all of the phones I've had i could download a file from the internet on my computer and save it directly to my sdcard. But for some reason on this phone it tells me "You cant save here. Please choose another location". Any advise? I now have to save it to my computer, then paste it to my sd card or phone.

Q: Can't I see my SD card as a path again, instead of Computer\GT-I9100?

Hi, I deleted some files on my SD card by mistake and would like to see if I can recover them with eg. Recuva. The problem is that the program can't see the SD card, because the parth is just seen as "Computer\GT-I9100" in Windows 7. On my HTC Hero the SD card would pop up as a drive, but my GS2 refuses this it seems. Does anyone know of a way to fix this? I did a search but all I could find was a fix for Windows Phones. Thank you.
Hah..well nevermind. I just figured it out on my own.
Go into settings, USB-mass storage and enable it
Or just enable debug usb on settings/application

i have a question, when you transfer an app to the sd via the manage application settings. where do the files go i cant find it anywhere? its not on the sd card i cant find it on the sd portion of the nand.
if you dont find the answer try using a combo of drop box and es file explorer (both found on market). That's what I use to transfer any app or file form device to card

How to save to external SD card?

I have a Galaxy s3. But this pertains to any phone with a sd card.
I can access the card with root explorer just fine. I can see media on it that I placed there due to media scan.
But i cant save to it on some apps. Apps that capture pics or save stuff..in their options, it allows you to choose the directory you want to save in. But it stays in internal storage only area only.
I cant go up to main system root directory to choose the external card for a folder location...
Is there a way to do it?

[Q] SD Card not appearing anywhere!?

My rom is SlimBean 4.2.2 build 2.5
i have no idea what i did but on my phone, my internal sd card isnt shown at all. i cannot save any files to my phone, download anything etc. so i decided to upload whatever files i needed to skydrive, and then using the app, download those files onto my phone. however, i cannot save any kind of file. when i use my file manager (SlimFile Manager) on the top it says that i have a total of 0.00gb of internal storage and 0.00gb free of internal storage. further, whenever i go into clockwork mod and try to access internal storage, it says it doesnt exist and that i have to mount it. if i try to mount it, it doesnt let me. currently, the only way i can transfer any files, view any pictures, any roms etc is by connecting my external sd card to my computer, copying over the file onto it, putting the sdcard into my phone, going into clockwork mod and flashing through external sd. i cannot view any pictures at all. i have tried to move onto another rom and see if that fixes it, but have had no success. please help me! thanks!
i would attach screenshots but i cannot since my phone wont let me take any screenshots right now it says it cant save them anywhere
