I need a simple clarification that I can't find discussed plainly in any of the SD threads.As I understand it, an SD card is completely unusable at this time. For example, files can't be transferred there through a program such as Quick Office.Is this correct?
View 9 RepliesI purchased a card from Amazon last week. I haen't received update yet. The card came with a micro and SD adapter included. Do I need the micro adapter to install the small micro memory card? How do I install the card? Do I have to format it on my PC before installing on Xoom?
View 14 Replies View Relatedthis question is for the motorola geniuses here. I have 3.2 installed and can confirm that there is native SD card usage however I can not figure out how to take pictures and have them save directly to the SD card. They still get saved in internal memory. How do we change that I don't see a setting anywhere unless I am blind.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have music and photo files stored on an SD card. I could play the music and view photos OK before ICS update. After ICS, the music files on the SD card didn't play. If I copied them to the internal memory, they worked. Gallery photos on SD card had multiple copies and would not swipe from one to the next. When viewed with XOOM attached to PC, there were multiple copies of everything. but only one copy of each if viewed in file manager, or by plugging SD card directly into PC. I found on other forums that I can clear the media storage and the files will play properly. However, after I restart once or twice the files are corrupted again. Is there a permanent fix for this problem? Is Google/Motorola aware of this? Is a permanent fix planned for a future update?

The browsing speed is very very slow and most sites dont open.The signal strength shown in xoom is - (-105 dBm 3 asu).Is this a issue with Android 3.2 update or my home wifi is weak? Would i be able to reset the tab to the original version?

View 15 Replies View RelatedWe have two stock 32GB WiFi/LTE Xooms. We both started receiving SIM card error dialog boxes when we try to access the internet. The box states that the SIM card is unauthorized and recommends that we contact our wireless provider's customer service for assistance. This started happening after we accepted the new build number (HLK75F).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have the SD card in my Xoom and mounted. No problems there ( the card is mounted through Settings > Storage > Mount ). How do I use it to store music, pics and video? Do I need to create a MUSIC directory on the card?I can't seem to find any docs on this, so suggestions on how to integrate the use of the card within my daily tablet life would be helpful.

View 15 Replies View RelatedI have a Wi-Fi Xoom with 32G of internal storage and Android 3.2. When I insert a 16G SanDisk Class 4 micro SD card and power up,I am unable to mount the card. I go to Settings>Storage, and get an error message, with the option to Force Close or Send Report. Most of the time, the app closes itself with no action on my part. If I insert the SD card while the Xoom is powered on, I get a different problem. I am able to get to the storage setting, and there is an option to mount the card. However, pressing on that option doesn't cause anything to happen. The card is formatted as FAT32. I have copied some files to it on my PC, and the files are there when I connect the card back to the PC. I've checked the board here, and not seen this problem addressed.
View 13 Replies View RelatedWe bought a Xoom to use on vacation instead of taking a laptop. I want to download photos and videos taken with my Canon Camera into my Xoom. I have the adapter for the Canon that allow me to convert the SDHD to a Micro SD, so that I can pop in ito the Xoom. I can view the photos fronm the Canon card on the Xoom, but it won't let me download them into the device. I don't want to have to go thru a computer to do this. So is it possible to download from the SD card onto the Xoom.
Also, when we watch the videos that were recorded on the Canon with the Xoom, they are at a slowed down speed. Would seem that if they were actually downloaded to the Xoom, it would take care of this issue.
I do not want to use the Xoom to take these photos. My Canon camera is the device we will use to capture the photos for multiple reasons.
Is the Xoom f.e. capable of moving apps to an sd card? I've tried several such apps, but none seem to work. Is this a hardware issue / limitation of the f.e or can someone recommend an app2sd card app for the f.e..?

Here is an App which allows some access to microsd card.
I have been researching SD Cards at Amazon. Getting prepared for the eventual software update from Motorola. I have seen a Sandisk 32 GB Micro SDHC listed at Amazon. Is this a good card for the XOOM. I am VERY happy with my Xoom so far.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI just bought a Xoom wifi only because I thought it would be handy to have a tablet that I can use to swap files between my pc and my device, and now I see that though there is an sd slot it's pretty much just a decoration at this point. Does anyone know if there is a way to get this thing to work, or when Motorola/Andriod will fix that?And yes, I do know there are apps that I can use to access PC files over a wireless network, but i wanted to be able to bring a few sd cards worth of movies with me on the road when i travel since after i fill the device up with music and apps there's not a whole lot of room left.
View 1 Replies View RelatedGot the 3.2 update for my wifi xoom today and it supports the SD card slot! So, the obvious question is which one is recommended? Where can I find the specs for supported SD card speeds? I don't want to shell out the big bucks for the class 10 if the xoom only supports up to class 6 for example.
View 5 Replies View Related I have setup Astro file manager to default to the external SD card when saving and retrieving files.
Today I was "editing" a PDF and after saving the edits chose to "send" it from the app itself. The app prompted me to use Gmail. It opened Gmail and, as far as I could see, attached the file to the message and prepared to send it. I sent it to my work email address. I was not on line at that time however not long after finding a hotspot I noticed that the message appeared on my work blackberry. BUT no attachment.
So then I , on my XOOM, opened Gmail and manually attached the file to the message and sent it. Again it appeared on my blackberry but again with no attachement.
I then went into Astro and moved the file onto the internal memory, created a new Gmail message and located the file internally, attached it to the message and sent it. This time my blackberry showed an attachment. So it seems that whilst I can open files from the external SAD card, edit them and save them I cannot pick up these files for attaching to an email.
Is this a XOOM or an OS issue? If an OS issue does ICS resolve it? If a XOOM issue, why is such a basic requirement overlooked?
Can anyone shed light on the SD card issue.Was it activated as read only on purpose or is this a bug. Will everyone be satisfied with a read only SD card?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the sd card on my Xoom wifi with Android 4.0.4. I have my music collection on an sd card which is loaded in my Xoom. Initially the music plays fine in the Google Play Music App, but after using the tablet for a day or two the music will no longer play. I get a message that the music cannot be played. This message then appears when attempting to play any music on the sd card.
I can temporarily fix the problem by erasing the Media Storage and Google Play Music data or resetting the tablet as suggested by gmanapps, but the problem repeats itself. I also tried syncing/not syncing with Google Music, disabling the Google Play Music app and using an alternate player, and formatting the sd card.
In general I have been happy with my Xoom, but this issue really concerns me. Does this point to a larger problem of stability in the Android file structure?
I have a Canadian Xoom updated to 3.1, When I plug the usb into my laptop I see MZ604Device Storage - no SD Card. I have an SD card in the device which I can see when I access the 'Files' app.
View 5 Replies View RelatedOthers may have asked this but I can't find an answer that works for my Xoom. I have a 3G Xoom operating on 3.1 but it won't recognise the SIM card.
I have:
Tried turning the unit off and repowering it - no success Tried using the SIM card from my mobile phone - no success Removed the SIM and resinserted it - no success When I look at Settings/Wireless and Networks/Mobile Network Settings, I have Data Enabled checked.
If i open the SIM card slot, I immediately get a message "SIM error - A SIM card error has occured. A mobile data connection cannot be made until you insert a valid SIM and power cycle the device. Please contact Customer Care if the problem persists".
When I reinsert the SIM, I get a triangle with an exclamation mark in the bottom right corner saying "No Service - Selected network (Vodafone AU) unavailable". Now when I go back to Settings/Wireless and Networks, the Mobile Network Settings option is greyed out an unavailable.
When I turn the Xoom off and then restart it, that Mobile Network Settings option is available again. MASSIVELY frustrated as I can't find out whether it's a setting that needs adjusting, whether it's the Xoom itself, a 3.1 problem.
I have updated my Xoom to 3.1 and now have my sd card active. I have put a picture (jpeg) folder onto the sd card, and now I want to link the folder to the Gallery shortcut on my tablet so that I can show my pictures using the Gallery shortcut instead of having to go via my file manager app and then selecting the individual pictures on the sd card.
