[Q] MicroSD doesn't show up when connected to PC?

---

Thanks guys, I hope someone knows how to fix this.

When I connect my Asus EEE Pad Transformer to my PC(Windows 7) via the USB cable, I can see on the PC a new device named "Computer\Transformer TF101\Device Storage" which is my built-in 16 GB, but there is no device for the Micro SD card - it is actually visible in the EEE Pad (at /Removable/MicroSD) and works pretty normally within the Pad.

How do I transfer my files to the MicroSD from the PC then?
I don't want to take out the card and use a card reader, btw.

I would like a response to this as well.

Just for curiosity... you don't see any folder named similar to "sdcard" inside the visible 16gb directory?

Go to:

http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_...sformer_TF101/

Download tab and then pick your OS and then download PC sync software?

It happened once or twice that I found a folder named 'MicroSD' in the 16gb directory - it is indeed the MicroSD card, but now it is gone and I have no idea why.

That's weird... I am waiting for my Transformer to arrive, btw.

Did you tried a full restart on the tablet and try again?

Already tried, no luck.
Thanks anyway.

Yes I did. but I havn't tried factory reset yet.

More than connecting transformer to PC by the usb cable, I usually use some app like "Websharing" or "WiFi File Explorer PRO". Sadly there's no way to upload data to the microSD card using one of these apps either

Until now, I've been removing microSD card and putting it in my USB all in one media card reader!

well what you can do is simply copy it to internal and then use the HC filemanager to copy it to your microSD, that's what I do.

A good workaround, but quite frankly, these are the sorts of little inexcusable things that companies need to check for before they push out products. Hopefully Asus fixes this very soon in an OTA soon. There's absolutely no reason why the MicroSD shouldn't show up as a separate drive when you connect the device to your computer. (Even my Nook classic does that!)
