Is that possible to save beamed files to card, not internal??
So just synced my N1 and I am looking at the folders on the sd card. Where are ringtone?..and media files stored?
Do I want to make new folders for music ect?
Any help here on what to do would be great.
thanks
Ringtones, alarms, and notifications are stored internally. You can create a folder called Music on your SD card and put your music in there.
I have read that I should make a folder called Music, with separate folders for alarms, notifications ect. Is this correct?

To do that, on your SD card, create the following trees:
sdcard>media>audio>ringtones
sdcard>media>audio>notifications
sdcard>media>audio>alarms
Once you do this, then add files to each of the 3 folders, reboot and they'll show up just like all the other ringtones that are physically on the phone.
thanks for the help.
I have a number of media files that do not show up in the media library despite being on the sd card and can be played on my laptop from the sd card through the phone.
Any ideas?
Exchange phone only reads some tracks on two SD cards.
Is it a format and reload all y music? I hope not.
I have an extensive mp3 collection and I'd like to sync to my phone when I plug in USB. On my RAZR, I could use Musicbee, which synched the songs by USB complete with album art, directly to the Music folder on my external SD. But the S5 connects to my PC as a phone, rather than individual drives. I can sync the music to the external SD, but it filters to a series of nested folders relating to my PC username.

Two ways, depending on your current setup. I have my collection stored in Dropbox and I just use dropsync which is essentially a selective sync to mirror my Dropbox music folder on my SD card.
The other way, and admittedly something of a pain in the ass, would be just to physically mount your microSD using an adapter, in your laptop, and then use a desktop sync program.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have ~30GB music, and don't really feel like paying for more Dropbox storage
I've been transferring to the SD directly, but it's a pain and would rather just have it sync automatically.
Any other suggestions out there?
