Where do I put music & video files?

Prozac69 · Nov 12, 2011

Sorry but

a really noob question ..........

Where do I put music and video's so that the default app's find them?

I thought the SD card was 'external_SD' so that's where I put the music folders. But then, when I try to navigate to that on the phone, there's nothing in there. And also, when I open the music app' it doesn't show anything that I've added!!

So can you tell me where you put audio and video files please.

Sorry, I really show know this but it's not something I've done on any of my phones before!

Thanks in advance for you help.

SDCard : Internal Storage ,the 16Gb build in
External SD : The micro SD (T-Flash) you insert into phone

And inside Windows Explorer ,it should be two drives ,say ,Drive E and Drive F ,one is internal ,one is external
Hope this help

I think memory your looking at is the built in memory. I put some video files in the folder marked media and it found them ok. If you want to find the external memory you need to go to settings,wireless and network then usb utilities to connect tovpc. Thenn i just put all my music on there. Again it found them ok.

Right, I've done the music files. I've dumped them in the 'Music' folder in the above screenshot and it appears to have found them. The only annoying thing is that it's sorted each song alphabetically and not by track number!

Now I just need to work out where to put videos.

I also still can't see, from my screenshot of the folder structure above, where my SD card is. If it is that 'external_SD' then why aren't files showing when I explore it on the phone?

And does the Note not play .mov files? I've transferred some across but when trying to open them it states, "No applications can perform this action".

right click, create a folder in the "media" folder called "videos". put your videos in there
