Android Phone Sd Card Not Showing Up On Pc
(1/1)
nvidia:
so i have an android 9.0 phone i got a 32gb sd card for it for 8nzd and i use it as the internal storage as phone only has 4gb built in and only 400mb free space android uses the rest of the space
so i wanted to copy some files to my phone off my pc but when i go to this pc on my computer and click on my phone it only shows the internal 4gb storage no sd card
what can i do

You have to make sure that the phone itself can see the card first. Check/Google the phone model to see how much of a card it will be able to accept. For example, I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 (quite old) which takes a 128 GB card as against the entry level Samsung Galaxy Prime will only take a 32 GB card. If it is supposed to take the card you have, you may have to the phone settings and check what options you have there.
Syntax Error:
Check Settings > Storage
You may need to (re)mount the SD card
You can also do this by dragging down the USB connected notification that should appear when you connect the otg cable.

Try plugging the (micro SD) card straight into your laptop, or via an adaptor like....
