Help with transferring pictures and music from old phone

I had a 1GB card on my old phone and I wanted to get the pics and music off and put it on my DX. I put the old card in the new phone, connected with the USB cable and moved the pics...Haven't figured out how to move the music yet. I then put the new 16GB card back in the phone and reconnected the USB cable. When the media transfer comes up on the new phone it says the memory card is not installed although it is.

 

Any suggestions?

Did you format the new card? You need to do that before being able to access it. You do that via SETTINGS / SD Card & Phone Storage   - you need to UNMOUNT it first, then click on FORMAT SD CARD.

 

As far as the MUSIC, I would just connect via USB and access the files (DCIM / MEDIA) via File Folders on your PC .. get the Media Manager out of the way - it causes more problems than solutions.  IMHO.

BTW...this new phone is awesome...I have a CPO and it looked like a brand new phone out of the box...I'm sure it will take me a while to realize what all I can do with it.
