Use a file manager? Windows drag n drop?
Peasy.
Thank you for the answer But do you know how to set the phone to save for example music on the external sd card?

It's not the phone you must set but each app in their settings menu.
You can do the same for internet browser etc..
Wherever they are multimedia files are automatically detected.
I have tried with the apps... but i can't figure out how to for example move my songs from the internal to the external sd card by my stock music app.
Sorry for my bad english

You ca'nt, the music app doesn't move anything. It just scans the SD card and displays what it finds.
Alright thank you So if i want to move my songs then i have to do it "manually" by the pc, right?
Best regards

Or with an app like Astro
It is better to do it on computer, simple drag and drop and more reliable
Ok, thank you all for the help

ok so this is a simple question i know but conflicting topics have made me post this
i have 1gb system memory
5gb phone memory
29gb of sdcard space
So in short.... WHY CANT I MOVE ANYTHING TO MY ext_SD(the removable one) CARD I HAVE A CLASS 10 32GB SD CARD IM NOT ABLE TO UTILIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*UPDATE EDIT=So looks like the culprit is yet again a phone company making mods to android
+1 to Close the open source!! and go back to google phones.. LG, MOTO, HTC, they all just bloat the sh** out of the phone and take away the modding capabilities
so if anyone has any advice on how or what i can move to my 32GB Ext_SD card... please let me know
I have no problem moving all as compatible apps to the as card. Some apps just don't have that option though.

Some of the games and such are adapted to save on sdcard
Look through o3d forum

OK, I have a quasi solution for you I just thought about. /sdcard is internal and /sdcard/_ExternalSD/ is the your transflash card. Most apps are made to save data to /sdcard which does become an issue when some of the kickass games like shadowgun download 250MB plus of data plus all of your roms and media. What you could do, I gather, is move the directories like those game data directories to /sdcard/_ExternalSD/ and then crate a symlink to it with the same name in sdcard. It's probably what I'LLC do when this last GB is gone, lol.

That's a good idea just put them in the extra SD through the computer or if I can move it with astro maybe ill try that
Hopefully at least I can move my roms since they are the biggest space taker

No, he's talking about the external SD card...as in the card that you can pull out that stores your pictures and videos on. When you move an application on this phone to the SD card, it actually moves it to internal SD application storage. This is my second thrill and neither will move apps to the external SD card.
When you click on apps2sd app and move an app watch and see that your external SD card memory doesn't change at all.
You can edit vold.fstab to,switch how the cards are used

Okay. Continue. I'm listening.
I have a 32 gig SD card I bought specifically to be able to move a ton of apps there. I haven't been able to do so and would love to rather than being limited to the 8 gigs on the phone.
Hope this helps

That method did not work, did not even recognize my sd card ("internal" or "external")
I can post that file when I get home tonight and see if anyone can get them edited.
Okay. Just tell me if I'm wrong. What I'm referring to and what I think the OP was referring to was that external SD card that you buy at the store where you store your music and pictures on. The SanDisk.
The other storage is internal storage, then there's system memory.
Cm7 fixes this.

Hello everyone,
I have been flash-crazy lately and I have run into a couple of problems I'd like your input on.
The last few that I have flashed are not recognizing any data on my external SD card. For example, my SD card (16Gb) is about half full with music and pictures, but when I go to the gallery, it's blank (no pics), and when I go to the music app, it doesn't show any of my tunes. None of my ringtones and notifications are available as choices either.
The ROM's that are giving me this problem are: MIUI and Axi0m (AOKP). These are the two ROMs that I would really like to check out. But with no SD Card contents...its a deal breaker.
But, ROMs like Team Gummy's ICS4Bionic load my SD card contents perfectly.
Any ideas what could be happening here?
Thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer.
Rip
Read the op..... the miui has mounting issues not sure about axiom rom.....

Thanks for the advice. But, believe it or not, I did read the OP where it says that the SD card does not mount to the PC, which is not, at all, my dilemma. The problem that I am having is that the ROM is not reading my SD card.
Sent from my XT875 using XDA
Sorry guess I miss read.. so it does mount in SD on PC or no?? Thinking maybe a bad SD happened when I had my charge and I needed to replace it..
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
Well, part of my annoyance is that this problem is ROM specific. Gummy and CM9 load it fine. MIUI and AOKP don't. Not sure what is going on. Just going with Gummy for now...
Sent from my XT875 using XDA
fyi gummy is aokp based so..
Oh yeah. I meant that MIUI and Axi0m don't read the card. Thanks.
Sent from my XT875 using XDA
No problems just giving you the real facts so you know lol no sure what is causing this wish I could be of more assistance. I should know how to fix but I am stumped

I flashed Axi0m and took a few pics with the camera. The immediately showed up in the gallery. About a half an hour passed until I checked my phone again, and when I did, viola! My pics were in the gallery...and my music was in the music app. Super weird.
Still no luck with MIUI

hmm.. that is super wierd dude sounds like you have a pos bionic.. try returning to stock and going back up..

found out this might be the issue sometimes when you are in your "gallary" or whatever you are looking for in your sd card try opening up the file manager and see if you can see them there..
Is there an application that will allow you to move applications to your EXTERNAL SD card. as the internal card fills up very fast. I wish i knew a developer to make an application that you could use to choose what SD card you want to move the application to.
Anyone know of a way please let me know
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
how many apps do you have installed to fill up the 1GB for apps let alone the 12GB storage.
You might want to email one of the deva on the market that have made a app2sd app it would be a very simple modification.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I know it is simple that is why i can't believe you can't do it already. But i think it would be for us ROOT users only. But i am not sure.
It is just sad that apps can't be moved to External SD and that it is only for media

Well i emailed the developer they say that there is nothing anybody can do except Google

I cannot find any of my recently taken pictures on my Bionic. I recently moved all of my pictures to my external sd card on 2 separate occasions. But for some reason, after I took a picture today and tried to remove it from my internal storage, it wasn't there. I can find it in my gallery, but not in any file, anywhere. I tried searching using es file explorer and nothing. I am rooted on stock. Does anyone have any advice?

Did you check the external?

Have you tried importing the files to your computer? A lot of times it will tell you where they are stored whether it be an sd card or simply a random file folder....you can also change where you want images stored after taking a picture, let me know if this helps and if you have any trouble I'll be glad to help fix it.

If you see the picture in your gallery you should be able to select the picture and hit options. After that hit details and on the bottom it should show you the path to where the picture is saved to.
They were on my external sd I didn't notice them because all of my instagram pictures were at the end of the list, not my most recent pictures, lol. Thanks for the help.
