Motorola Atrix 2 :: Unable To Transfer Photos/videos To PC Via USB?
Jul 1, 2012
If I email a photo from my Camera Roll, it opens up fine on the PC. If I connect the phone to my PC via USB, though, whether I choose USB Mass Storage, or Windows Media Sync, I can't get the valid photo files transferred it seems. The transferred files would be "invalid" to open on my PC running Windows 7. If I choose Windows Media Sync, and then use Windows Media Center to Import the files, it would always get stuck at ~45% completion. The imported files can be opened, but then the rest somehow can't even be transferred.
I used to have data and device encryption on. I turned both off when I found out about this problem, but the same issues remain.
I have the Atrix 2 and am unable to watch videos my friends post on facebook as I get some error type message. Yet my wife has the Atrix and she is able to view the same videos with no problems. What gives? Anyone have any clues as to how to fix this annoying issue?
Actually I have iphone 4 and while transfering data from my pc to my iphone 4 I can transfer music and photo and all but not the video, whenever i try to transfer video after sync my phone syncs but on my iphone i see a message that ( ) items could not be synced see itunes for more information.
My phone is pretty dead - screen is white and no buttons respond. A new phone is on its way from orange and I'm trying to get videos off the bb onto my desktop. I've managed with the photos but can't get more than a couple of videos from the bb onto the desktop (using desktop software). Not sure if they are on the phone or media card. (On software, none show up in 'my videos' file. How do I do this only using desktop/ usb and not accessing phone?
my camera isnt working... I'm able to view all of my past photos and videos fine. But when it comes to take new ones i'm unable to do so. When I launch the camera app it stays stuck on a closed shutter; when I press the camera button to snap a new photo/vid nothing happens... it just stays on this lovely screen.
When recording a video I do not have any volume when I play it back. Yes my volume rocker is turned up. It doesn't play when I transfer it to my computer either. Very, very frustrating.
I just got a new samsung s6 edge previously an apple user and really annoyed by this phone, all I hear from friends is apple is so crap well I've never had an issue with iphones for me they worked how they were meant to work, now I have the s6 edge and problem after problem doing the most basic of things, the most annoying of which is photos.
I'm trying to drag photos from the dcim folder of the phone to my windows 8.1 desktop, obviously connected by usb I have the drivers installed etc have used both the mtp and ptp options in phone, neither option works each time I drag to desktop all the windows close screen turns grey like explorer crashes and the desktop refreshes, also done copy and paste does the same thing.
I don't want to use software as only way to do it which is slow and laborious is like google photos etc. surely if its treated as a storage device just copy and drag, really annoyed as it should be so simple.
I bought Xperia Pro mini and was told i will be able to trasfer files via bluetooth to other devices. Unfortunately, my phone cannot be detected by other phone eventhough the bluetooth is on. Even if I pair it with other phone & devices..it aint working.
How to transfer photos, contacts, notes etc., from blackberry phone (9900 model) to my recently purchased iPhone 5S? Though it is pairing, but failing to transfer the data.
so i thought to believe that the atrix was capable of 720p video playback. i tried to test it by downloading a hd Internet video @ 720p. then i transferred it to my atrix via usb cable. when i tried to play the video it just gave me an error message telling me that it couldn't play it. i was a bit disappointed to see that it's having problems. now, i'm not sure if it's the default video player, software issue, or hardware issue? either hd video couldn't play or it just freezes while audio plays?
My Daughter has and iPhone 3gs and when she sends me videos she has recorded with her phone I can't open them. I have tried a number of different video player apps (moto x, rockstar, mobo) (I think those are the rightnames) and none of tehm will play it. Does anyone know what I can do to be able to watch those videos?
Sometimes when I take pictures and/or videos with my phone, I can't see the picture or video on my phone. I take a photo. The phone acts like it took a photo. I see a thumbnail initially. When I try to view it again, there is just an icon and the photo is gone. It will say it isn't viewable or a video isn't playable. Can't view them if I transfer them to my computer either. I don't understand what the problem is because sometimes it works just fine. I can still see old photos or videos. The formats are exactly the same as the old photos. I didn't change the settings.
On my DX, whenever I went to the Gallery, I was presented with the folders on my SD card that contained photos and videos. One folder I had was called "Wallpapers". On the DX2, all photos and videos get lumped together and there is no way of navigating to the folder that contains the photos or videos you want to see or play.I understand that there is a way to "group" photos and videos by day, week, or month. Fine. But why not also let you group them by the folders they are in on your SD card?If you click on "My library" and then click on the "My Library: Timeline" drop-down button at the top of the screen, you get a popup that shows you can view your "My library" by Albums, Locations, Tags, and Timeline. Again, why not also include the folders that they are in on your SD card? I was hoping that was what viewing your library by "Albums" would be, but that's not the case. When I click on that, I get two albums: "All videos" and "All photos". Not very convenient if you want to view a particular movie, video clip, or photo. I don't want to have to sort through a folder containing ALL of the videos or ALL of the photos.
Here's the problem as I see it in practice:Say you want to change your wallpaper. Okay, long-press on your home screen and select "Wallpapers". Now, select where you want to pull your wallpaper from. "Gallery". On my DX, it would take me to the Gallery and it would show separate folders for Camera, All Photos, and the folder I created for all of my wallpapers, called "Wallpapers". So then I could click on the "Wallpapers" folder and easily select the image I wanted as my wallpaper.ith the DX2, after long-pressing on your home screen and selecting "Wallpapers" and then "Gallery" as the source, it takes you straight to ALL of your pictures. I have more than 1,700 on my SD card so I don't want to scroll through all of them just to find the wallpaper images I saved that are mixed in with photos I took with my phone, downloaded images, etc. Sure, if you click on the Menu button and select "Group by", you can group all of the thousands of images by Day, Week, or Month, but again that doesn't help since who the heck knows when those wallpapers were created?
I'm looking for a way to transfer contacts (too many for SIM card copy, plus addresses) and calender from V9x to my new Atrix. Have MPT but I don't think the Atrix is supported.
I just got a replacement Atrix and was wondering if there was a quick way to transfer everything from the old phone to the new. I use Lookout, so I guess I will get my call logs and photos back, but wondering if there's a quick and easy way to transfer all my apps, etc.
I'm able to transfer my iTunes library to my Atrix, but the playlists end up in alphabetical order, rather than the original order of the album or list.
I'd like to know the best way to transfer CD audiobooks to the Atrix. The method I've been using is to:
1) Rip the audiobook CD's to iTunes on my PC. 2) Setup playlist in iTunes for the audiobook, 3) Use MediaLink to transfer selected playlists to the microSD card on the Atrix.
One problem I've run into is that MediaLink seems "glitchy" in transferring the audiobooks to the phone. Sometimes it takes several or more attempts until the transfers complete successfully with MediaLink. Any less cumbersome method to transfer audiobooks to my Atrix (running Froyo 2.2.2).
When i take photos from the camera, some photos randomly becoming like panoramas...like titles (happens 1 out 50 captures : single photo gets broken out into multiple tiles and rearranging them in a random order)and i am not able to revert it back to what the photo originally was, Touch screen gets frozen Out(unresponsive) at times...currently i am just pressing the power button twice to over come this problem, When the phone is in the pocket and you are connected to the headset...if a call comes then screen is getting unlocked ..even though you are using hands free(wired in my case) for answering that call.. and options like loud speaker or other things getting pressed in the pocket... the dolution that i found out is adding another lock to the default android lock would solve this.
A friend has been trying to Transfer Photos from Motorola VU204 USB to PC. Everything tried so far has not worked.I tried connecting the VU204 USB (cell phone off) to my Windows 7 PC and it was recognized and correct driver was DL and installed but it did not show up like a USB drive so unplugged everything and turned the cell phone on and reconnected still did not show up like a USB drive.Did a search and found "Connecting VU204 via USB tocomputer"ttp://cellphoneforums.net/motorola/t289608-connecting-vu204-via-usb-computer.htmlFoucault posted "Well, Tony's tried, and it appears to be a Verizon issue.There probably is a way around it, if I understood some of what others have been through with other phones, and felt like being a pioneer, but I don't think it's worth the hassle to get some photos from a phone-cam. I'll stick to my digital camera."
purplegenes posted "It is a Verizon issue ... I own a VU204 and like many other posters here I cannot offload my pictures or even charge the phone from my computer via a USB cable. I ran into a Verizon employee the other day and started a conversation about the VU204 problems."The VU204 will charge by my Windows 7 PC but as mentioned have not figured out how to transfer the photos.
