When you plug it in, do you get a notification on the phone about USB connection? You need to select mass storage mode. If not you need to update the drivers on your computer.

Connect thru Kies Wifi, after 5 days of trying to make the drivers work , i gave up.... Use Kies or remove the card and read it with a card reader.

Driver issue. Follow these instructions, just change the kindle stuff to yours. It will work. Make sure to update the USB driver in SDK, and check it a second time in the SDK to be sure it updated. And remember to reboot after installing the new driver, it won't work otherwise.

You should also have a setting that says connect to pc on your phone, make sure it is set to prompt.

also when i connect phone to usb it says mount and when i hit it i do not see it on my computer wats wrong ?
to see your phone you must mount the sd card. and you need the sdk tool on your computer.
please correct me if im wrong.........any one?
It might be a problem with your usb cable. Are you using the cable that came with the epic? If so get a new one the one that comes with the epic is crap. Try monoprice.com they have good cables and great prices.

Try rooting without your SD card in the phone. unplug the USB, take your SD card out, plug in the usb, run the root.
See if that works.

Hi, So ever since I had my phone I was never able to get the SD to mount on my computer when I plug the phone in the USB. I even went into the system and turning on the mass storage. Is there another driver beside the one found on the samsung website? Because of this I can not get my phone rooted with CWM. if anyone can help that would be great!

Turn USB debugging on. Plug it into the computer. It should make a connection noise. Pull down the notification on your phone and connect mass storage. Your phone should say mass storage connected. If it is not connected as a drive on your computer go to control panel, system, device manager and see where it connected, either "other" or under USB ports as samsung android or something. Click on that and hit update driver. It may take a half hour to find and install all the drivers needed. Then reboot your computer and phone. You should be able to connect then.

Im trying to connect my phone to my computer but when I connect the usb it doesnt allow me to mount the sd card. It just charges but nothing appears in the naotification bar. It used to work fine but now it doesnt let me connect my sd card.
Same problem here, it used to work... but not now. I tryed to uninstall and install again companion but did not solve it
I know that this ain't the solution but you could look into Wifi Syncr as a means to transfer files to your phone.
I can not mount my sd-card with Ubuntu, do I need some drivers and stuff?

Edit: He he he, I fixed it myself by changing to MSC USB-connection.
Go to setting>sonyericsson>connecntivity>usb connection mode change it to mass storage mode.then ur phone will prompt u usb connect to memory card,just select connect.
Happy try.

Do your PC has the LG pecan drivers? If not, hang around and you will soon find. Install them and it should be the end of your problems =D

Earlier today I tried to access my files on my phone connected to my pc via usb and my computer doesn't seem to recognize that a usb device is connected. All it does is just charge the phone. I've tried every port on my PC and still no luck. I have to remove my microsd card from my phone and insert it to my Pc using an adapter in order to transfer files.

Do you have USB debugging disabled?
Also, what OS is your friend using? Unfortunately it seems Samsung has switched the GS3 and GNII to Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) instead of USB Mass Storage (UMS), which is way faster and more compatible than MTP. Some people have issues with their PC not installing drivers for MTP devices, and that may be why you're not able to access your phone from your computer.
