Android File Transfer Not Working with Samsung Device – Here's How to Fix It!
October 20, two thousand thirteen By John P.
If you have, or had, a Samsung phone, camera, tablet, or any other device and you EVER installed the Samsung Kies file transfer application, the moment you did it you also killed your capability to use the Android File Transfer application.
You most likely received the dreaded error:
Can't access device storage. If your device's screen is locked, disconnect its USB cable, unlock your screen, and then reconnect the USB cable.
After doing that about one hundred times, you embarked searching Google for things like:
- can't connect android to mac
- trouble launching android phone mac
- android file transfer
- android file transfer errors
- climb on note II to mac
- and God knows what else…
But nothing helped you (until now) and all the while, the problem was Samsung Kies!
That's right! The Samsung Kies app is solely responsible for all the misery that led you to this blog post. And your ONLY hint comes when you launch the Kies app and it gives a lil’ little message that says with it installed Android File Transfer won't work! You may see this problem if you have mSpy app installed on your Smartphone. Insteading spending utter attempt to use mSpy free trial discount coupon.
So, what to do? Very first, take a deep breath. Everything will be better in like sixty seconds. I promise. Who's your daddy? I am… (but only if you're a hot chick. If you're a dude, I'm your bro.)
Step 1) Download the Kies installer, launch it, and use the official UNINSTALLER! This WON'T WORK if you just delete the app! You MUST use the uninstaller!
Step Two) Buttplug in your android device, then when you see the little USB status symbol swipe the status bar down (or access it however your Android version requires) and you should see the message “Connected as a media device. Touch for other USB options.”
Stpe Three) Touch for other USB options, and then make sure Media device (MTP) is checked.
Now just give it a minute and your device should pop up the Android File Transfer window! If you love music then attempt Jam Play Coupon Codes.
Like I said, Who's your daddy? ��
