Can't copy pictures to PC, everything else works... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,

I copied the pictures I wanted to have on the PC into another folder on the phone and from there I could copy them to the PC (wtf?)
Hope u can help,
Cheers
Matt

Never heard of that i would suspect a rom problem .

So... Can't you tell us the file? Or look in your history in command prompt?

I have the same problem (I didn't delete anything) and I found it was the problem of the port USB on my laptop. I plug my phone in another port and everything is ok. Try on another PC or another port USB. Hope this helps.
did a data wipe and the usb connection worked again, till i reinstalled all the apps i had before. So i guess the problem wasn't because of something i deleted, but maybe it was caused from one of the apps i installed.
haven't figured out which app yet, but will check it out later on.

Little problem over here!

Hello! I can't push files into my phone via USB.. i can copy files from the phone to the computer, but not the inverse.. when i try to copy a file from the pc to the phone, it says something like "you cannot copy/move that file, the device has been removed" .-. but its there! and i can get files from it! whats happening? thanks!
Edit: I can transfer musics / pics to the phone.. but i cant transfer zip files (roms, themes) ..

picture folder gone

hi!
my girlfried just wanted to do a backup of her galaxy s3. she connected the phone to her windows 8.1 laptop and tried to copy all folder from "internal" to the laptop.
the process is done, but some folder contain files, other folders are empty.
and the greatest problem is, that the picture folder is gone. it is not on the laptop and no more on the galaxy - its away!
i dont think that the picture are deleted on the flash, but how could we recover this?
i hope you can help...
thanks!

Take a look at this guide your photo's maybe there >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/info-flashed-4-2-sdcard-data-t2274218 <<

Where did my folders and files go?

All the files and folders on my Galaxy Note 3's internal and external storage have reverted to what appears to be the defaults, all the photos (DCIM folder), videos, downloaded files, apk's, setup files, language files and who knows what else are gone, just vanished, not visible in Windows nor in Solid File Explorer, some apps are missing their language files or data files.
The phone was plugged in to USB on a WIN7 PC and the explorer window seemed to freeze, eventually I had to unplug the phone and now when I reconnect or look with a file explorer there must be >40 folders and thousands of files missing.
So what happened? Where are all the files? Are they recoverable?

This can be a files coruption, most of thing can cause data losage, like some tweaks, boosting apps, also hardware problems.
I know one LG bello user which changed few sdcards because of the rom. That was a bug which destroy sd.
Files are not recoverable, also I suggest not only to you, upload your files(pics, videos, other data) to cloud services because you never knows what can happens with the device you can drop it into water or to throw it in a deep abyss
Always keep files on safe place.
MEGA, Google drive, mediafire, or any other.

This just happened again, luckily my photos are backed up to the cloud but how does this keep happening? Has anyone else had this happen?
I'm kinda amazed that it actually happened again and wasn't a glitch and that no-one else seems to have reported something similar. I'm sure now I can cause it to happen on command.
(I'm using MTP on 5.1.1 Resurrection Remix Rom.)
Maybe you can open your files via cardrider?

i see all files as folders (apk,zip,docx, etc..)

when i connect my z5 to my computer(with usb) i see all as folder as 0 size even if i try to copy to my computer i can only copy new files ( at the begging i was sure it was virus)
i 've tired reboot my computer, and the phone didnt help
what more i can try? beside's repair with XC?
Thanks
PS
i tried FTP with ES FILE explorer i see all fine (beside it slow)
