[Q] Just a quick question

Hi, when you go into the "media" folder on your tab, is it possible to add more folders there then the stock photo, video, download?

Yes, its possible

And how do you do it?

Use the stock file manager "my files", or download astro file manager or efile from the market.

or use your pc/mac via usb

Using your tab only, click "my files" icon and navigate from there to wherever you want to place your new folder. Then use the context button to reveal the new folder menu, as well as rename and details options.
by the way, you might also be interested in a better media browser than the stock, use quickpic from android market.
also, if you add a blank file (usually a txt file) named .nomedia at the root of a folder which contains some files, the files won't get picked up by the media scanner and stay hidden, but will still be seen by file explorer like My Files.

[Q] how to access download files in windows phone 8??

hi,
today i downloaded a txt file from a email attachment bt i cant find it anywhere same is with zip file does anybody know how to access download folder or how to access these files

Generally speaking, you can't. You can open them again from email, and (for apps which support this) you can save them after opening - for example, a text file that you open in Word can be saved to the Office hub - but the actual temp folder used for downloads is not accessible to anything except the app that does the downloading.

Yep but you *can* get the file(S) from that temp folder. Search store for*downloader*

Downloads Folder Question

Weird situation. When I download something using Chrome, it shows up in the Downloads "app" which I assume is just a folder. I can also see the Download folder in ES File Explorer as well as the file I downloaded.
Now if I copy another file to that folder, I see the file in the Download folder, but it doesn't show up when I click the Downloads "app" - only the actual downloaded file shows up.
How can I get all the files in the Download "folder" to show up in the Downloads "app"?
Thanks

Errr, the downloads app is not just a folder, its an actual APK that shows what downloads you have made on you phone.
Has nothing to do with the downloads folder, other then that is the folder when the downloads program downloads to.
I don't know that its possible with out someone making a new downloads apk that acts as you want.

That makes sense. Guess I could make a folder shortcut and use that to view them Thanks

[HOW TO] Sideload apps to Freetime Profile

Hello all,
I think i stumbled onto something and want to tell others as it took a while for me to figure it out.
What you need:
ES FILE EXPLORER (from amazon app store, share it with the free time profile)
APP YOU WANT TO SIDELOAD INSTALLED TO PRIMARY PROFILE
GOTOAPP (from amazon app store, share it with the child profile)
Make sure the ES File Explore app is shared to the child profile. And that the app you want to load in freetime mode is installed on the primary profile.
Then go to the child profile, open ES File Explorer.
Click the Apps icon from the homepage, click on the app you want to sideload and then click view app content.
Select all the items and copy them to a new folder in your Downloads folder.
Then select all items inside that folder and zip the files to a .zip file.
After doing so rename the file and change .zip to .apk. Then open the GoToApp and open the docs app from it then select the apk file and enable unknown sources installation and install.
You now have it installed on the freetime profile and can use the GoToApp to load it. (Also you can use the Kids Folder app from amazon store to load sideloaded apps as well)
