    Misbehaving photo transfer from camera card to tablet

    I found that I can navigate to the photos on the memory card inserted into my tablet (even though that first time they showed up in QuickPik like I hoped) and they are indeed in the DCIM folder, BUT, there does not seem to be a way to move, copy or import them into the tablet. What i am saying...

    I have a camera with a 2gb memory card and a Samsung Galaxy A tablet. And no, I do NOT have a smart phone.

    transferring WMP playlists to Android device intact

    When I first got my Samsung Tab A a several months ago, I was new to Android and stumbled on something I would like to repeat. At that time, I transferred 2 playlists from my 2006 WMP to Tab A intact - ie, the playlist showed up on the music app and the tunes were in the correct order. But, when...

    Samsung Tab A issues with free hotspots

    Yes, A17, I WAS using Chrome. This tablet was less than a week old when this happened, and I am a new Android user. It never occurred to me to use the Internet Browser in the apps, since the chrome link was on the desktop. It might possibly have been a message from Google, but I am not sure...

    I have researched online on how to move data from my Windows XP PC to my new Galaxy Tablet A and vice versa. When I plug tablet into PC, the AutoPlay dialog box does NOT show up, only a box asking to use Windows Media Player to move media. When I open the drive with the tablet, there are 2...

    Samsung Tab A issues with free hotspots

    Took new Samsung Tab A to Greece - connected to airport wifi fine, but refused Internet connection as signals from the airport indicated possible fraud site. Layover in Munich - connected fine. Thoughts? Why connect to one and not the other?
