I get this error from time to time. I go into settings and to storage and my Apps are the issue. First, I don't have that many apps and I move any I can to the sd card. 2nd, it appears that once an app that was moved to my sd card gets an update, it puts it back on device storage. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks

Welcome back! What's the exact error message you get? Can you show us a screenshot of your Settings>Storage menu? http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...ide-how-post-screenshots-android-central.html

It's normal for the app to be moved back to Internal Storage when updated, because apps have to download and install directly to Internal Storage. From what I've seen, Android doesn't automatically move the app back to SD afterwards.

Apps like Facebook that update almost everyday are constantly moved back into internal memory. It's a problem for devices that have only 16 gigabytes internal memory like mine.
And now my tablet will not update anymore anyways.
