    Honestly thank you so much! I've been trying to move my files for ever and I watched a lot of videos but this was the only helpful one! There was just a slight difference for me maybe because of the update, when I pressed on copy I didn't have the menu bar. I simply had "copy here", so I was really confused, turns out you just have to go back and press on USB 1 and then press on "copy here".

    This is excellent- I'm doing this on my samsung tablet however, but all instructions work. UNTIL I click the item to be copied. When I tap the 3 dots the only options are: Open with, rename, add to home screen, move to Secure Folder, and compress. However, along the bottom is the copy option. But, afer I tap on that, it only offers "cancel" or "copy here" (?? Where??) So I click on "copy here" and it says " You already have a file named (name) in the destination folder." I'm in Tech hell !! Any idea what might be going on?? TIA! You've gotten me to a point in the process farther than any other online info so far, so THANK YOU!!!

    Previously when Ihave taken videos I have to return home to transfer the files to the computer, so i can deklete them from the phone to free up more space. Now i can simply take a USB stick and transsfer the files while out and about.
    I assume it's the same process to transfer from the phones memory card to the USB stick.
