Motorola Xoom :: Unable To Simply Move Movies And Music Using The Internal File System?
Nov 2, 2011
So I just got a microSD card for my Xoom and understand that I'm not able to simply move movies and music using the internal file system from the Xoom internal memory to the SD card. So fine, I'll re-copy them from my PC to the SD card.But what about when my Google Music syncs, is it going to copy the Music to SD card with the other copied music? or still in internal memory? What about camera pictures and movies? Can you set it to save on the SD card? It take it apps cannot be 'moved to media area' either?onder when Google is going to fix these restrictions to their file system. 10 months later after release of Honeycomb seems a bit long to fix a basic file system function.
Is it possible to move an app to the 32gb internal memory from main memory. I know that the external sd card is read only but why can't you move an app from main memory to internal memory like you can with a phone? The move to sd card is always grayed.
After my update to 3.2 I am unable to play any movies from my gallery that are .mp4 or .m4v format that worked before. When you click on a movie the Screen Fades but nothing plays.
on my previous phone (Xperia Z2) I can plug in to my computer via USB and copy files to/from the internal storage or SD card. When I plug my Nexus 6P in to the computer the same way, I just get an empty folder. I can't see all the files on the internal Android file system. Is this normal?
I have a iphone 4 (not S) and have purchased movies on it. Just some Pixar shorts. I want to move these purchases to my computer so they are backed up, in other words, sync the other way. I have my phone/itunes set to manually manage music and movies because my music library on my computer would be too big for the phone and I don't want all my music on my phone anyway. Problem is, I can't just drag the movies from my phone to my itunes when the phone is plugged in, and when I choose "sync movies" I get a warning box that says:Are you sure you want to sync movies? All existing songs, movies and TV shows on the iPhone "dorothy's iPhone" will be removed and replaced with movies from your iTunes library.
I want to avoid this so I don't have to take the time to reload particular songs/albums that I've already put on the phone. Isn't there a way to transfer purchases you've made on your phone onto your computer without losing everything that's already on your phone? Is there a way to sync only movies? One would think so if you just checked the box, but the words "all existing songs, movies, and TV shows" make me too nervous to check the box.
I have been using my ray for 6 months. Today I observed that all the files were invisible on my computer, eventhough SD card was full. My phone was connected by usb I run Sony PC Companion, windows explorer started and it was writen that SD Card 708MB Free and 3.65GB full, but I double clicked SD card and there was only two files; "customized-capability" and "default-capability". I have checked win explorer Folder Options, hide, unhide selection, do not affect. I am sure that the files are in my phone, I have check from my phone.Now, I could not transfer my pictures, files, movies from my computer.
i went on to the android market to rent a movie using the new google movies application, but there does not seem to be a videos app! i can watch using Internet, but want to be able to download to i can watch it on the plane, etc. where there is no internet connection. according to this:
[code]....
the app should have been pushed out today for all verizon 3g xoom customers, but i can't find the damned app. does anyone know where it is?
I have a MAC at home and would like to transfer some movies which I have onto my Xoom. I have Android file transfer on the MAC and astro on the Xoom. I have mastered transferring files onto the Xoom BUT have a problem now as Android file transfer onlu allows me to transfer if it is less than 4GB.
How do I transfer my movies over which are more than 4GB?
I have a problem after doing a reset of my phone. It is rooted and has TWRP 2.8.6.2 installed. I did a full wipe with TWRP including the internal storage.
But now, if i want to upload through TWRP's USB mount, i have to following issue. I see the internal storage on my PC when both are connected by USB, it has the TWRP folder.
I tried to upload a small text file, that went OK, then i uploaded the new ROM file and after 5-8 sec i get a popup on the PC telling me the "device has either stopped working or has been disconnected".
When i boot the phone it is stuck on the boot logo, Samsung text.
I've tried converting them to mpeg, but that didn't work. My Canon SX40HS outpuuts AVCHD lite video, but none of the Android movie players I've tried so far will play them. have a recommendation for native AVCHD Lite video players?
you have converted a dvd to the xoom format and you go to the gallery on your xoom how do you get it to continuously play the movie without you having to go back and click on every slide
can I install the KMP player to see the movies in RMVB format and the AVI format? If not do we have another software that can be installed in tablet to view the movies in RMVB and AVI format?
Can someone tell me how to move data from the internal phone storage to the SD card? Wife's Charm gets a notification that internal phone storage is low (13MB or so). Any way to move some things to the SD card?
When I try to watch something with the movie player, I can not get the volume high enough in a noisy environment. Does anyone know how to turn the volume up to 11 or 12?Seriously, the movie playback volume seems lower than the music player. I turn it up all the way and it still is not loud enough to hear the movie.
Does anyone have some headset/earbud recommendations?
I am trying to transfer digital copies of movies to my xoom. The first is a universal studios which I put on my computer but cannot transfer to my xoom.The second is a lions gate film digital copy which makes you go through itunes. I did that but cannot get it to my xoom.I traded in my Ipad 2 for a xoom for more possibilities. I guess i should have stuck with the obvious simple Ipad because I am not smart enough to use the xoom.
Got the 3.1 update on my wifi xoom this morning. Looks like im missing the movies tab in the market and im also missing the videos app. i tried clearing the data for the market but it made no difference.
This is my first post here and i am here to discuss the topic i have in my mind. It has been long time while i am planning to buy this motorolla mobile. But there is a doubt in my mind would there any plugins need to install in my hand set to download movies or watch?Link removed by forums manager.

I currently missing photo and music, not really missing them, If I open ES File Explorer and open .sdcard/DCIM/Camera all my photo are there. They just don't show up in Gallery. I can open them from ES File Explorer fine. Same with Music, I can open /sdcard/Music and all my music is there but when I open the Music App, it reports"You don't have any music in your library." I can open any song from the file explorer.Also I can no longer see any files in storage when I connect my Xoom via USB to my Win7 pc, the internal storage shows up but is empty.
I had a similar issues on " General: System Error " Music file unable to save on music library the second one is corrupted music file unable to deleted on music library.
i have an Atrix 4g (stock)running gingerbread 2.3.6 i noticed a file listed as LOST.DIR. on my internal memory when i open it the names of the files are listed as numbers ranging from 92 to 1315. 126 files in total. when i try to open them it keeps saying "unable to open this type of file". when i long click it for file options and click info it shows me file properties with the following info "? 98 TYPE:FILE, FOLDER:/MNT/SDCARD/LOST.DIR, SIZE: 4KB, MODIFIED ON: DEC 31, 1979 7:00PM". every file size is 4kb and they all say modified on Dec 31, 1979 @ 7:00pm. can any one out there please tell me what this is and if they are safe to delete or how to restore the files. i am very confused about the modified date, i was 2yrs old in 1979
Mi Xoom has stopped playing any sound through the internal speakers. They worked fine in the beginning, but a week ago they were muted for games, video and music. However, i do get the sound through headphones.The speakers are not broken, as i get notification and alarm sounds normally.I tried the factory resetting, but without success...Problem might have come up when i tried headphones for the first time or when downloading some volume control app -unfortunately i cannot say precisely when the problem occurred.
1) Let's use Angry Birds as an app example. I need to know how to discern the internal storage structure so that I can (1) find angry birds the app and then (2) know where to put it on the external sd card such that I can still use it.
2) Where do you put apps within the sd card such that you can use them on your phone?
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..?
