You have to install the 'Android File Transfer' android.com/filetransfer
that works! thanks. too bad double twist wont work
Does anyone know if filetransfer is going to be the method going forward, or will we get a way to mount the internal storage? Getting music and video on the device using a mounted drive makes everything more convenient.
After thinking about it it for a few minutes, I potentially understand why it doesn't work. If we are able to mount the drive, then the OS wouldn't have access to it. We really need the sd card support

Doubletwist works fine for me. That's how I transferred my music.
I should say doubletwist on Mac doesn't work. And that's where my music library is.

Ok so back when i had my tp2, i had this wonderful app called Wifi Remote Access that allowed me to connect to my wifi and computer and transfer files through my file explorer on my pc through wifi? And it was called ftp support, no i found an app on the market called ftp file expert or just file expert and dont know how to get my computer to do what the windows mobile app did?
Anyone know what i can do to make it so i can transfer files through my file explorer on my computer so i can copy paste and mange files on my phone?
Or another app?
Thanks
I use swiftp. It's free from the market & easy 2 use for file transfer. It helped me alot when I was having usb issues!!

Thanks guys, but we have a winner thanks for the suggestion, this is exactly what i was looking for, if only i could select multiple folders though.
I gave all u a thanks button
I use wifi file explorer to move stuff to and from my phone. It isn't as slick as showing up in your file explorer, but it gives you web access from any computer on the network.

Ya its only that folder too? Oh well maybe if i take thos folders in that one and move it to another? also it might be because i got a wifi error saying no connection on the app however it works fine and that is the only folder that wont open, i guess ill try reseting my router see if that fixes the error?
btw sorry the pic was so small, damn xda and there small pic attachments lol
I reporting back on something I stumbled on yesterdays after updating to the latest CM7 2.3.3 build. After updating I have been removing the sock music app then replacing it with the Honeycomb version. Upon that I was prompted with several permissions request and accepted them all. Syncing then started and I checked that under that under Account and Sync notice Music was syncing. This synced overnight. I put in a empty SDcard in. Then I went in to the Jumper Test that comes along with the Music app started the peer under the Controls tab, Ran a test under the Logs tab ( showed 785 files and the files names below) went back to the music app then went to music settings and checked Stream Music and my music started to show up! Played a few songs no problems at all. Let me know if this is working for anyone else.
*EDIT*
So I guess this inst working anymore. I did test this when I originally posted this but i cant get it to work anymore. Sorry guys not yet
is there a way to access those files from a computer too? i mean since its synced in the cloud, could be really useful.

If your objective is to have your music available everywhere, try AudioGalaxy. it streams to computers, android and iDevices.
How did you replace the app? I tried to but the honeycomb music just keeps FC'ing
As far a a URL to go to on a computer I haven't found anything. Ill post the apk i used when I get by a computer sometime later. Basically I just used root explore to delete the stock music app then installed the honeycomb player.

Gotcha. Did that, syncing now...
So, I have a question..
If you already have these songs on your phone, why would you want them "put them in the cloud", so you can play them on your phone, where they are already???????

So you don't have to keep gigs of music on your ad card. This is great news!
If they're in a cloud they dont need to be on his phone. In return he saves space on his memory card. However, if they're not on your phone they're not going to play when you dont have a connection.
I wonder if running a logcat during sync would reveal where this cloud is?
ah, that makes sense..
although, I have a 32 gig card, so i dont care that I have 10 gigs of music on my card..
Plus, thats a good point about not being able to play your music if your connection goes south...
Wait does this download the songs back into the SD card or does it stream your synced music from the cloud?

Is it force closing when you opened after install or after you tried to sync your music? If its force closing after install download it again. It works for me.

Hey everyone,
I love my tab from I/O but as a Mac user I am stuck with no way to connect it to my mac to put videos on or anything. Every time I attach it to my Mac (or even PC) it wants to load Kies. It doesn't give me the option to mount as disk or anything.
On my Windows 7 PC it does allow me to browse it as a folder but I don't use my PC for any video downloading or anything. Is there a solution for Mac? I tried downloading the DMG for Honeycomb tablets from Android.com but it still didn't work for the Samsung tab. Not sure what to do here.
Second thing... someone needs to break a version of the new Netflix app to work on Honeycomb. I can get the app to load as is but it won't let me play video, says that this device is not supported.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Did you try this: http://www.android.com/filetransfer/ Should work. I used it with the Xoom and it worked like a charm.
Also if you have the SDK installed you can use ddms to open a file explorer. (In the same menu where you can launch the screen capture app)

I did try that and it did not work, because I think Kies is persistent and messes with it. Any other ideas would be great.
And to be clear: neither Kies on the mac nor Windows recognizes it either -- they say it's an unsupported device.
I managed to get a movie on it for the flight home by connecting in windows (VMware), installing Kies (for the drivers) and mounting it as an external drive.

Really that would be a disaster for the 10.1v because of a lack of a SD card...... It would mean that one only can transfer files over a network.
But I assume that uninstalling Kies would solve this?
Deleted.......
Anyone else know anything that might help? I don't have Kies installed and cannot get it to work on my Mac.

Only option is adb push if you want to get your files on there. Or wireless transfer but hat takes too long

I tried both the Windows and Mac versions of Kies, and ended up having some luck with XJNB. I have a post on my blog (at surfsoftconsulting.com) explaining this, have a look at the Galaxy Tab First Impressions entry. The problem seems to be that Samsung's implementation of MTP is rubbish. Worst case scenario is that the update to 3.1 will include Google's own (and hopefully less buggy) implementation. I guess a more worse case is that Samsung have donated their code to 3.1... sigh.
I should add that since doing a factory reset I've not been able to get XJNB to work with the tablet :-( so I shall probably move to using a Wifi based solution

filetransfer doesn't work - at least not for me - with the I/O Galaxy Tab 10.1 (MacBook Pro early '08, OS X 10.6.7). I've written more elsewhere on this thread, I won't repeat it here.

You can't... Install Parallel's and load a Windows Virtual Machine. Samsung says its coming... SOMEDAY...

This is a good workaround.. I have a Mac so how you do the first part on a PC you'll need to find a solution.
1. Rip the movie with Handbrake to your preferred resolution
2. Download a App from the market called Software Data Cable
3. Download Filezilla
The app gives you all the info needed to connect over wi-fi and once its set up transfer any file to any directory.. Its sweet

I'm having the same issue. I'm on a PC. My PC gives me a confirmation tone when the device is plugged up to the USB port, but no drive letter for the device comes up. How do I go about transferring documents to my Tablet from my PC?
I've already downloaded & installed the USB drivers from Samsung's site:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/GT-P7510MAYXAB
I got it working now. I just happen to see a notification that USB Debugging was enabled.
After disabling it, it's working as it should.
Yeah, disabling USB debugging let me connect via USB. You might have to unplug and then replug in your galaxy tab.
Can anyone suggest an app that will allow me to copy my SD data from my old phone onto the Essential over the air? I thought Google's File Go would work, but it seems to restrict which files I can transfer directly, phone to phone. i need access to files beyond the 6 categories File Go offers. I'd like to stay away from any kind of wiring or PC use. Thanks.
Dropbox seems to be a solution. I still would appreciate additional input. Thanks.

You can take an ADB backup... Which should copy everything on device to computer...
If you are rooted... You can do it via wireless ADB

X-plore file explorer will transfer over wifi sharing.
You might want to check into an app called superbeam. It uses wifi to transfer as well and you can use it afterward to transfer files from your PC to your phone and from your phone to PC.
