Thanks once again, GSDer. I was preoccupied with the election yesterday, so I missed the sale. But that's OK, I'm still hoping that your initial suggestion about Google Drive may work better for me than I'd originally thought. I'm most grateful to you!

Thanks VERY much for all your helpful suggestions. I think eventually I'll probably go with USB-OTG in conjunction with AllwaySync--I'm really happy to know about this. However, Real Life has gotten complicated lately. As a result, I decided that for now, I'd just bite the bullet and go...

Thanks very much for this idea. It sounds promising!

Thanks very much, GSDer, for this suggestion. I've now tried it out, but I'm afraid it's not going to work for me. My tablet can access the Internet only via wi-fi, and I want to be able to access the files even when I don't have a connection. There is a setting in Google Drive for making a...

I'm looking for an app that will compare two files or two folders, one on my tablet and the other on my Windows 7 64-bit computer. I can transfer files easily between tablet and computer using WebDAV, but what I need is something that will tell me what's different between, say, my Travel folder...

re: B. Diddy, you are amazing! Once again, you've solved my problem. The program you suggested, Open in Browser, does what I need. It gives me the chance to choose whichever browser I want, and among the browsers it lists is Chrome. So when I need Chrome to open the .html file on my tablet...

re: Now that I'm home, I followed the very clear instructions to wipe the cache partition. Alas, that didn't seem to make any difference that I could see. Chrome was still not listed among the programs that could open an .html file that I have on my tablet. (The file is a list of links to...

re: Thanks very much, B. Diddy. I am traveling right now and will wait until I am home before giving this a try. I know it's safe, but I can't afford to mess up when I am so dependent on my tablet. Once I try, I will post back to let you know the result.

I want to add Chrome to the programs that are listed as Open With choices when I want to open an html file (containing lots of links) that I have put on my unrooted Nexus 7 (2013). There are at least half a dozen programs listed, including my 2 favorite browsers (Dolphin and Pale Moon). However...

I think this description sounds pretty legitimate: http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-7-tablet-2013/610234-android-6-0-nexus-7-tablet-problems.html

Well, as far as I can tell, the 5.02 update was downloaded onto my Nexus7. When I went into Settings/About and selected System Update, I got the screen I described in my first message. It said that the update had been "downloaded and verified 389.2MB" and it showed me a button that said...

Sorry, but I haven't been able to find the file. I use ES File Explorer, and I looked in both "system" and "sys," but all I found were still more folders, and opening those led to still more folders. I enabled notifications when I first tried to get the update process started, and I've left it...

No, I don't think I disabled or uninstalled any apps or services that the OS may need in order to install the update. I have two questions: 1) What is the filename of the update that may have been downloaded but not installed? I'd like to look for it to see if in fact it was downloaded. 2)...

Thanks very much, cab2, for your very interesting reply. I'm not sure that I can do what you suggest. When you did it, you were apparently moving from KitKat to Lollipop, the next in the series. That apparently is not a problem (normally :) ), but leapfrogging over Lollipop to move from...

Hmmm...Interesting. I think I've got to learn more about Wug's tool. Thanks very much.
