More nexus 7 questions help plz

blondie7

I have a few questions please can someone help me.

1. I have transferred some music via bluetooth, I can only find these on the Bluetooth menu but when I click on the track, it says "can't play the track you requested".

2. I have also transferred pics, but when I go into gallery only 1 photo there. If I go into bluetooth as above they are all there.

3. Ebooks sorry if already been asked, I was on wh smith site and tried to download a book there was 2 options add to liberty or download epub. I first of all clicked epub "it said download complete" but couldn't find it. I them pressed add to liberty it now says "in your liberty.

Thanks in advance for any help I get.

I've not used the BT mechanism, only USB.

1. I just copied MP3s over via USB to the Music folder. These are then available to any player that can read that folder (like the normal player, VLC, Dice etc.)

2. Not tried this, but I'd presume as above except into the Gallery (?) folder.

3. Don't know.

WHSmith:

browse, buy, read and store eBooks with Kobo.

Have you installed the Kobo app?

You can download Kindle as a free app for ebooks.

Which is nice if you buy your ebooks from Amazon. Otherwise, not so much.

Go into the Play store and download the Astro filmanager app. The 7 stores your transferred files into folders you cant get at for some reason but the above app will let you view them all.

Once you've downloaded the file manager go to the "Bluetooth" folder and see if their is a file called ".nomedia" it will be a 0kb file.

Select the file and delete it (it's safe to do that it's just a ''flag' telling the OS not to look for media that might stop some programs playing or seeing things in that folder.)

Browser downlaods will usually go into a "Downloads" folder.

You could try ES File manager, I use it to send things to and from shared folder on my PC (Latest few versions of Astro do not like auto "discovery" of network shares so I don't use that any more)

I also use "Root Explorer" this is a paid version for rooted devices

Get the Google music manager on your computer and "upload" your music to the cloud. Allows up to 20,000 tracks that you can stream to the nexus 7. You don't need to store the on the tablet at all!
