You may just need to reinstall the usb drivers, check the tablet is detected in device manager.

not working
First of all check the wire and port. Maybe something is loose?
Second: Go to device manager, does it find the phone there? If it does, right click on it and select uninstall. Then disconnect the device and reboot. When it's rebooted attach the device again.

[Q] ADB works, but no MTP/PTP functionality

So I got my Nexus 7 2013 to work perfectly on my laptop, which runs Windows 7 x64. However, on my desktop, which also runs Win7 x64, I only have the ADB working correctly for the N7. As I recall, sometimes there is a device under Device Manager called "D:/", which is non-descriptive, but seems like the closest thing to the N7. I have tried to update this mysterious device's drivers by pointing to Google's USB drivers and the OEM drivers, but neither was accepted. There are also no devices with missing drivers listed in Device Manager.
At this point, I am not sure how to proceed. Is there a precise way identify under what device name/category the N7 shows up in Device Manager? Please advise. :fingers-crossed:
See if this helps:

Make sure USB Debugging is disabled, device is plugged in, and go to device manager in windows. Then right click on nexus 7 or android adb device, or any similar name. Then after uninstalling everything, unplug device and replug it in. Let windows get the drivers, and MTP should work!

Deleted everything related to google and nexus. Still installs as adb device but doesnt show as nexus 7 device! Wug fresh has this program in its tool kit
It might sound dumb, but I was literally just having this issue. But apparently certan roms or kernel disable MTP mode when they are installed. i reinstall every driver just now. My fix was as easy as going to Settings > Storage > Menu Button Top right > Enable MTP box.

Going to try a custom rom see if that works!
I have tried a number of the suggestions in this thread, including the deletion of all my google/adb/nexus (and samsung) drivers. None of these steps resolved my problem. However, at the end of the day, I can still use both ADB and MTP, just not at the same time. So it's not a big deal. I think I will mess around with Tasker and/or get a widget for turning ADB on/off.
Are you ale to get a nexus 7 device to show so you can access internal storage? I can only access camera storage.

Are you running stock?
If so, do you have USB debugging turned on?
If you have USB debugging turned on, the USB IDs change and it might not (depending on what you have previously installed) recognize the MTP device anymore.
If you turn off USB debugging, it should recognize MTP.
Now if you are on a custom ROM, there might be some issues on the ROM side causing the MTP problem. Try going back to stock and see if it works.
If you are on stock and have the case where MTP only works with USB debugging disabled, then you can try this driver inf I put together to address that.

To change modes plug the usb cable from phone to computer and pull the pulldown down
and you will see "connected as a media device" click on it and will be able to change it to
"Camera PTP" or "Media Device MTP". (Media device PTP is mass storage mode)
Be sure that you have the latest samsung usb drivers installed in your computer.
If you don't have it installed or if you don't see the options then that means that
either the usb drivers are not installed or the usb cable or the usb port is not
functioning properly.
Good luck!

Doing that makes it show up as a camera. Which is fine I guess, but probably just for applications on the computer that don't know how to read MTP. Neither is actually USB Mass Storage though.
Either will let you copy files to/from the device in Windows. OSX seems to need MTP and the little application Google makes available.
When people ask about UMS, they usually want to connect to something that's not a computer, like a car radio that can play music/video from a flash stick. Those devices won't support MTP/PTP. I am not aware of any way to get normal UMS to work on a Note3. Last I heard, people determined that a kernel mod needed to happen, and even if that does, the device might get angry if you take its storage away as it won't expect that. The external could probably be done without too much hassle, but the internal would be weird. And probably won't work anyway as it's an ext4 format, so only Linux devices could mount it anyway.

This is sometimes a bit finnicky. Try changing to PTP instead of MTP. If that doesn't work, enabled Android Debugging. For some odd reason, Windows 10 wouldn't discover the storage on my HTC One M9 unless I enabled debugging from the developer settings menu.

I've tried everything that you suggested... and I'm still having the same problem as the OP.
Did you open the notification that appears on your phone after you connect it to the pc and select mtp?
How about just using a USB OTG memory with Type-C connector, something like this...
http://www.amazon.com/WEme-Type-C-MacBook-Devices-Surface/dp/B013OIGJFE/
Yea MTP nor PTP didn't work. What I did was plug it in and wait for it to show up in device manager. Then I deleted the device from device manager. Then I unplugged the device and plugged it back in... Then waited for drivers to install on it's own. Everything was good after that.

Are you using a custom ROM....
Anyway after connecting your phone you should see a notification on the bar that says USB for charging, click on that and tap on the second option, USB for media transfer
Anymore suggestion
