Mounting MicroSD / Connecting Z2 via USB

BagPuss — Thu, 08 May 2014 11:37:06 GMT

Hi Everyone,

I'm struggling to connect my phone to my Laptop via the USB Cable (Mount SD).

The phone recognises the 64Gb Card as I have music and a few films but unlike my old X10i I cannot seem to Mount the SD.

Under Storage in Settings the Mount SD is greyed out?

The Computer recognises something being plugged in as I can hear the USB Sound, but that's about it?

So either way, I cannot see my phone on my Laptop?

Any idea's?

Go to settings > Xperia connectivity > USB connectivity > USB connection mode > MTP and try again

Thanks for your help.

That MTP doesn't seem to want to connect however MSC mode does?

Is that right?

SD card may be faulty as well... As linux can somehow read the sd card, windows wouldn't read it - had that problem with samsung's SDHC 16GB.. Switching to another (new) card solved the problem.
