hello Guys,
is there a way to connect with my desire to my Network Harddisk ?
Yes, you can browse the contents of network hard drives with most file explorers. I use ES File Explorer to do this; I'm sure many other do the same too.
i recommend estrong file explorer... it has a lan, FTP and bluetooth option (as well as internal)
Estrong File explorer--->LAN [instead of local]-->Menu-->new-->scanner-> !!
Hi! all. recently i have this problem copying large video files from windows explorer to the iconia. everytime i copy & paste a large file such as 1 or 2gb, windows explorer will stop functioning & restart. i notice that small files such as pix & mp3 do not have this issue. but if a folder that is 1gb in size with lotsa pix or music in it is transfered, the same thing will occur. i tried wifi file transfer but it keeps getting disconnected halfway & i have to redo the whole process again. anyone can help?
What I recommend is getting ES File Explorer from, the market, its free. Then share, say your home folder over the network in windows, as ES can access Samba file share. Then copy and paste within ES instead of your computer not only does it work wonderfully, but you aren't tethered to your home computer and you don't have to use Acers terrible driver Lemme know if it works.
Even easier, withthe File Expert (free), yuu don't have to have a permanent network share, it has a web interface for transfering to and from the tablet. It also has root access, so no need for a separate root explorer.
same with es on root access. I find sharing a folder easier for me, but thats just me.
Hi,
Sorry if this is a stupid question. The Nexus 7 is my first Android device and something has got me a little stumped:
I am using ES File Explorer to access the file system on my Nexus 7 (not rooted, stock JB). If I connect my Nexus 7 to Windows Vista and create a new directory in Windows Explorer I can see the directory in ES File Explorer however if I create the directory in ES File Explorer I can't then see it in Windows Explorer. Why is this....?
I have also noticed that files I have deleted from /sdcard/Download (deleted from within Android) are sometimes still visible in Windows Explorer.
Am I missing something?
TIA,
Ed
Hi all. I dont know if this is the right place to post but please bear with me.
I am using ES File Explorer and want to access my files remotely. From what Ive read SMB (Server Message Block) port would need to be forwarded on a router's firewall. Also SMB is not encrypted and so I wanted to access my files using ES File Explorer over SSH, using an app like SSHTunnel on my phone.
Is it possible to use SMB over SSH without opening SMB port? Thanks
same question here, would love to have ssh file explorer
ssh into ur ssh server and forward from any port above 1024 since thats the android restriction to 445 (samba port).Then connect to 127.0.0.1:4450 (port that i have specified as source) via ES file explorer
Tried this but can't get it to work in present day
I have done just that but I cannot get the phone to connect to the SMB share after I establish the SSH connection and forward the respective port.
I tried entering localhost:[port] in the LAN server field and I get an error message from ES file Explorer upon connecting.
To someone works your G6 with Android file transfer on mac ?
there´s no way my Macbook pro to recognize it
This worked for me:
1. Install Android File Transfer
2. Connect you G6 to Mac
3. Change G6 settings to File Transfer
4. Start Android File Transfer app on your Mac
