I put the phone to mtp, connect it to my pc, I can select my phone memory or sd card, but when I try to drag and drop files to my pc it keeps saying resource is in use. Can anyone tell me what's going on? I didn't think simple file transfers on this phone should be this tedious.
Put the phone in PC Software mode.

yep, me too! never found any of my pics! however I did find a way of copying them.. get pisca photo viewer or anything that you prefer. Connect the phone in Disc Mode, a little window should come up on windows (I'm using win 7) and click on the sync option which everone you prefer
hope this help! good luck!
I'm following this guide on downgrading the DHD from the latest update.
All is well until I get to this step:
Put PD98IMG.zip to your SD card. You can close the cmd.

How do I do this? What command is there?
I cannot just drag and drop cause my SD card doesnt show up in the Windows explorer?

When you are inserting your adb command as the instruction, your device is still connected with CHARGE ONLY mode,
To insert the .zip file, you need to change it DISK DRIVE mode, and your memory drive will be shown,
You can change it by showing your notification bar, or go to setting-connet to pc, and choose DISK DRIVE,
Put the zip in the root directory, and reboot to bootloader, the DHD will now flashing the rom,
Hopes this help,
BR
Or you may be able to do it from command line using adb.
adb push PD98img.zip /sdcard
I'm can't remember though there might be a limit on file size when pushing like that.
I'm having an issue with the file transfer. I can see both internal memory and SD, but when i tried to drag and drop from Finder it is giving me an error, saying my screen is locked (even when it isn't) and asking me to reconnect. anyone else have this problem?
This was extremely annoying because I would try to transfer say an album and then it would get like 2 songs on there but not the rest saying my screen is locked please disconnect etc....i tried that but did not work.
please help as the only machines i have our macs.
thanks,
I don't understand. i am dragging the files from finder to the android app into a specific folder...

I get the same error. Try double-clicking the folder you want to drag your files into (in Android File Manager) and drag your files from Finder into that rather than trying to drag files into a folder with the root directory showing.

How do you guys even get it to see your phone?
On my computer, it just sits there and freezes if I have the phone plugged in when I start the app. if it isnt plugged in, it tells me to plug the phone in and freezes. When i switched the phone to PTP, it doesnt detect it, though it does pop up in iphoto. Any suggestions? I have been shuttling files with a micro-sd card lol!

Best way is to use Kies Air with the mac... transfer them wirelessly.

How do I do that? It is mp3's.
I heard of double twist with air Sync and easy phone tunes but haven't tried either of them.
Has anyone?

Android File Transfer has not been operational between Android and MAC os --at all-- since the Jelly Bean release.
Google knows it...Please add your two cents:
-- It's Issue #36970 @ Google's Android Open Handset Alliance Project
Squeaky wheel and all...
I'd post the link, but I'm a newbie here, and it won't let me.
So I downloaded the latest Nav Images for my car while I was on the road today and I was planning on burning them to update my system. The only problem is when I connected my Verizon Galaxy Nexus to my Windows machine I can't find the files I downloaded. I can see them on the phone in Astro, but when I look using Windows Explorer I go to the same folders and there isn't anything there! It shows as empty. Any suggestions? I could upload each one individually to Drive and back down to my PC but that seems like it would take FOREVER!
Fix permissions may help

you can use Trickster Mod's media scanner
I probably should have mentioned I'm not rooted. I pulled the files on my work phone. They are .rar files if that makes a difference.
Id tether the comp to the phone and download them that way instead of uploading them.
I am connected to the computer. I can see every file in my phone EXCEPT the .rar files I am looking for. Its so weird.

No I meant tether your comp to the phone for internets, then download them on the comp. Instead of having to upload them first and then download them.
after connecting my moto z play to pc using cable i cant access the media folder of whatsapp as it appears as an unrecognised file any help please
In media protocol sometimes files are not visible. Try restart you phone and then access them from pc. If this doesn't work you can always copy this folder to sd card and after that use microsd card reader.
Do you have TWRP?
