so when I try to connect my iconia tab to my Macbook, android file transfer wont work. it worked last week, I think the minor update they sent maybe caused a problem. whenever I try to turn on the program, it crashes the first time and after that it wont turn on. any ideas? I tried redownloading it but no dice.
Are you in mass storage mode or in software suite mode?
Maybe try on a pc too
Doesnt work for me anymore either
Not sure how many/big files you are trying to transfer but I find dropbox to be easiest way to transfer files...and its free! Hope this helps.
just use XNJB for file transfer on mac
or use wifi file transfer, its easy

I've been having a problem transferring files off my XDA Exec recently. Before, it was just the pictures that weren't transferring, now it's everything. When i go to drag them off the phone into another folder, it shows the regular transfer window, but then when it finishes the file isn't in the destination folder. I'd really like to clear the phone as i want to sell it.
Try reinstalling activesync and make sure it's the newest version. If it's WMDC then again, make sure you have the updates.
If that's still a problem, do you have USB HDD installed? If not, that will be a good alternative if activesync connection proves problematic... Can't really think of a reason except corrupt drivers.
I'm wondering what others file transfer workaround is.
For larger movie files (1-2GB), I have been uploading one by one to Dropbox, then downloading onto my tab. But this is awfully time consuming.
Anyone have a better workaround until File Transfer recognizes the 10.1?
I'm really confused by all these threads about file transfer not working
I have had no problems whatsoever
is it because you are using a mac?
i have file transfer problems, too. trying to transfer a huge file / large number of files via usb and windows file explorer just aborts the transfer after a few minutes without any error message.
currently im using "wifi explorer" fpr transmitting files to my tablet. it's a cool app i've already been using on my android phone, too. with this tool you can access your tablet/phone with a browser (web-interface), once you've started wifi explorer and you're connected to your wifi.
It's not so much so a specifically Mac issue or Windows machine issue, apparently quite a few of the IO tabs just simply cannot or won't be recognized by either OS. I know of this first hand cuz neither my Mac nor Windows 7 ultimate machines see my tab.
Uplinked through my mind
I found out that the computer won't pick up your device if USB Debugging mode is on. After I disabled that and had the KIES drivers installed, Windows picked up the device without any problems.

Ill try this after class and post back my results.
SGT 10.1 uplink initiative
I think it started after I updated to the new Samsung UI.
So I plug in the tablet to the usb (it sees it as the mpt device in 'mobile devices' section of my computer), navigate to the folder. When I am dragging files over to copy it gives the warning, that I won't be able to play back it (which is wrong). Than it thinks for a moment and states, that cannot copy file due to device was not recognized ot something.
I've installed the latest version of Kies for Win7, so all latest USB drivers are installed.
And anyway, how to turn off this crapy MPT connection? I want to use the tablet as a USB flash.
I'm not sure what causing that, but it might be worth reinstalling the drivers. If you start Kies, there's an option to do that.
No, it does not help. I reinstalled the driver via Kies and also manually.
I can copy back and forth small files, but as soon as I wanto to copy a 400Mb movie - it just looses connection with device.
the movie has to be no more than 3gig, either resize the movie with handrake or split the movie in half with HJsplit 3.0 and then transfer it, i would suggest using wifi explorer pro to transfer, works %100
My problem is that whenever I connect the TPT to my PC, DTG tells me "No Device Connected".
I am running:
Documents To Go Desktop for Android PC:
Version: 3.0000.031
Documents To Go on the Android:
Version: 3.003u(999)
Under My Computer on PC: TPT is listed under Portable devices: THINKPAD TABLET:
Portable Media Player
Running on TPT: ANDROID OS 3.1
On PC under Device manager:
The tablet is not listed by name under: USB
Debugging mode in not on.
The only I was able to get DTG to syn is to uninstall from PC and then reinstall. It works one time only and then I have to uninstall and reinstall again.
This worked for a few times and now even this does not work.
DTG has not been much help yet.
I really need this to work.
All help very much appreciated.

What are you trying to do with DTG by connecting it to you pc? You can wirelessly transfer files via ftp, or do it manually by usb if that's all you're doing
I'm trying to get the documents I write on the PC onto the tablet.
File transfer via USB seems to be working even though every time I move a Word doc, the PC tells me I won't be able to read it on the tab.
Sync is supposed to work so I guess I want it to work.
When using the stock OOS, I can connect my phone to my computer and the file transfer works just fine. My phone shows up on my computer as normal. However, whenever I'm using a custom ROM (so far all of them have had this problem), file transfer does not work because I can't get my computer to recognize the phone. Debugging is on, and the configuration is also set for file transfer. Oddly enough I can get my computer to recognize the phone if it's in PTP mode, but it immediately dissapears when I select file transfer. I haven't had any luck finding a fix for this.
just installing google usb driver worked for me https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb
