Android phones are capable of storing data on SD cards as well as their internal phone memory. Since the device is capable of viewing and saving many different types of file formats, you can access the SD card from different areas of the phone. For example, if you launch the music player, you can access the SD card by selecting music to play that is stored on the card. However, Android does not have a built-in file browser, so to view all the files stored on the card at the same time, you must connect your phone to a computer.
Instructions
1. Connect your Android phone to your computer using its USB cable.
2. Drag the notification bar down at the top of the phone's screen.
3. Tap "USB Connected," and then tap "Mount" or "Turn on USB Storage." Your Android phone is now connected to your computer as a storage device.
4. Click "Start" on your computer, and then click "Computer."
5. Double-click the drive that represents your Android phone. All the files on the SD card are displayed in the window, such as text documents, photos and music files.
6. Drag the notification bar down on your phone when you are ready to disconnect the SD card from the computer.
7. Tap "Turn off USB Storage," and then tap "Turn off USB Storage" again to confirm you want to unmount the phone from your computer. Disconnect the USB cable from the computer.
