Help with Titanium Backup

The battery on my old favorite Xoom tablet died so I bought a Galaxy Tab S2 T810. I rooted the new tablet, and set up the external SD card for rw privs. Then I took the SD card from the Xoom (which is running 5.1.1) and installed it in the Galaxy. I've done this numerous times when updating or changing ROMS, and even from one device to another.

I can see the Titanium Backup folder, and can see all of the backups within it with ES File Explorer. TiBu does not see it when doing a search for backup location, and when I navigate directly to the folder and choose "use current", TiBu behaves as if the folder was empty. It did a successful backup last night, and all the current apps appear correctly, but I still can't see the apps brought over from the Xoom (except using ES File Explorer).

Both devices are running Android 5.1.1 and TiBu 7.3.0.2

I could use some help getting back the files that were backed up on the Xoom. (I know I can reinstall the apps, but the data would be lost, and besides the Batch Restore in TiBu is so much faster!)

Try disabling "mount namespace separation" option in SuperSU then reboot.

If that doesn't work, copy the backup folder to the internal storage.
