For some reason when I connect my droid to my mac with a USB cable I no longer get an option to mount the phone.  I've tried both ports on my computer and the phone shows it is charging while connected but I just don't get anything in my notifications.  Help me!

Could it be Steve has put his foot down and said "none of my hardware will ever work a superior android!" Or could he have said, "that's what you get for going outside the family, you red headed step child, now stay out!"

Just saying

Transfer files to / from the computer:
  1. Ensure that your memory card is inserted.

    Note: If your memory card is not inserted, you will receive "Please insert a disk" when trying to access the phone.
    If your card is inserted correctly and is still not being recognized, you should try to format the card.
  2. Connect your device to a computer using a data cable. (It is recommended to connect directly to the computer, not through a hub)

  3. You will see the following icon under Notifications   
  4. Drag down the status bar, and touch the USB connected” notification

  5. Touch Mount

  6. Use your computer interface to move files between your device and your computer.

     Windows PC

     Apple/MAC

     

    * Open Computer or My Computer

    * Your phone should appear under 
       Devices with Removable Storage

     

    (If your phone is not being recognized you
    may need to update your drivers
     HERE)

    * Select your device

           * For photos & videos select DCIM > Camera

           * For Music select Music

           * For ringtones select notifications or Music

     

    * Your phone should appear on
    the desktop, as NO NAME


    * Select your device

  7. When you are done, go to Notifications and touch Turn off USB storage, then disconnect the data cable from the device.
