Why can’t I transfer the files to another folder? :( I tried to give the access to everyone (by going in the proprieties of the sd card) but it doesn’t work
im having a issue except im on mac and i have a 32 gb sd and 4gb sd, the 4gb is the sd with the mods and i also formatted the 32 sd to fat32 none of my special apps appear, only mario kart ds and twighlight mods i put all the info and from the 4gb and dropped it into a folder called 3ds data then put all that data into the 32gb sd and the space appear but none of my themes appear and its really weird and frustrating
Hey I just got a sdhc 32 gb card from Sandisk to replace my 2 gb sd Toshiba card I just copied the files from the 2 gb card to 32 but when I opened it up the 3ds had a little I think luma screen on I didn't know what to do so I just pressed buttons and it says it doesn't detect a sd card I need help please. Edit: I have the old 3ds like yours in the video and it already was in fat32. Another edit: never mind i did it again and it worked now
I went from using a 8 gig sd to a 32 gig sd, moved all the files, formatted to fat32 and every but none of my themes or games show up?? I even tried a different 8 gig sd and that didn’t work either. I know it’s something with me but what? Any ideas anyone?
@@manechbourree7290 turns out I accidentally changed the name of a file that didn’t save with one drive, so I turned off one drive, deleted the files from the 32g and re-copied them from the 8 gig to the 32 and it worked

Hii, I upgraded the sd card from 2gb to 64gb, I formatted the new sd card and inserted all the old files. But when I insert the new sd card it gives me an error and says that the software in the sd card cannot be viewed
bruh it says preparing to copy the files, and I waited and it didn't put any of my programs or anything from one Sd card to another, like, why is like that, is it because I have so much folders or smh else? like do I need to set all in one folder and then all of that in sd card? and yes my Sd card is working properly and it's fat 32
yo i followed all the steps the card is FAT32 and it says “could not detect an SD Card the software on the SD Card could not be displayed” what do i do?
My problem is some games work and some wont why is that ? And when is start the game that wont work it says An error ocurred (ErrDisp) The SD Card was removed
@@RetroBoyy THANKS, how can i fix it tho ?But Thanks maybe im buying a new sd card but the one that i used was a 256gb fat 32 format sd card and id didnt work some games just wont show up or dont work
Can I use an android with MSET9 Installer with the Lenny face (and some sorta background image), & ZArchiver as well? Also, should I create a throwaway account in case I need a backup? I don't wanna lose my main Nintendo Account.
i wanted to do this because my normal sd card for my 3ds has only 1.7 gigabytes left on it but it did not work my 3ds wont even show the home screen but i switch it back to the other sd card and its working normally again
I have an unrelated questions. So I've upgraded SD card, I copied all the files from old SD card to new card. The question is, can I use the old card on the same 3DS to play/downloaded completely different games? For example, my old SD card will be used for Nintendo games, and the new one is for third-party games. Is it doable? Or would there be a problem for the console?
I get an error code saying failed to open device the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. when trying to format the sd card
I have an important question, this won't make me lose my Pokemon and Smash save data right?, I remember reading something about those games being picked about the save data
You finally made the video I requested😊. Thanks ❤. You deserve a lot more subscribers
Been pondering this for days, thought about asking you in the comments, but you read my mind and made a video ❤ so glad I'm subscribed to this channel
Glad I could help!
Wow, I can't believe it was this easy. Literally just a simple backup, formatting, then copying files to root. You absolute legend ❤❤

Very helpful and straight to the point, thank you!
I got the new micro sd card 32gb and make it fat32 but my Nintendo said cannot display the app what need to solve this problem
Make sure the switch on the side of the sd card is set to off

It has to be fat32

No clue. It’s either your sd card or your pc
quick question, if the original files were dumped from a windows computer can you still do everyithing you showed us but on a mac??
Yes
@@RetroBoyy thanks man, big help. also nice content
yo i followed all the steps the card is FAT32 and it says “could not detect an SD Card the software on the SD Card could not be displayed” what do i do?
Sounds like a defective sd card
I found on my new sd card that it had all my stuff that the old sd card is do you know what this means?
No clue what you just said
My man 🤝
My problem is some games work and some wont why is that ?
And when is start the game that wont work it says
An error ocurred (ErrDisp)
The SD Card was removed
Sd card is not detected
@@RetroBoyy THANKS, how can i fix it tho ?But Thanks maybe im buying a new sd card but the one that i used was a 256gb fat 32 format sd card and id didnt work some games just wont show up or dont work
@@Itzz_Ph1l_YT its too big, stick to 138gb or smaller
Quick question do you need cfw on the new sd card or do you just copy all cfw and other stuff from the original sd card to the new one
Copy. You dont mod the sd card, you mod the 3ds
Ok thanks I was worried that there could be an error if I just copied everything
No as lang as the sd card is fat32
It should be fat32 as long as it’s at least 32gb right
@Tyray222 it has to be fat 32. Does not matter How many gb it is
When I did format to fat32 for some reason it didn’t work until I used raspberry pi imager then my 2ds decided to read the card
How big was your sd card?
@@RetroBoyy 128gb so I knew I had to format to fat32 and yes my 2ds XL is homebrewed
Yeah then it makes sense
@@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440 what does Rasberry pi imager do im running into the same problem with the 128gb card
@@duytranmimh3611 it re partitions the sd card into actual FAT32
Yo I did this but I can't open any game or FBI on the new SD card, it just gives me an error. What do I do?
Hey what does the error say?
Can I use an android with MSET9 Installer with the Lenny face (and some sorta background image), & ZArchiver as well?
Also, should I create a throwaway account in case I need a backup? I don't wanna lose my main Nintendo Account.
Sounds like you know more than me. So i dont know.
How can i merge two sd card's games into one?
this question doesn't have much to do with the vid itself, but I was just wondering, how does fat32 affect the transfer? what makes it mandatory?
If its not fat32 then the 3ds wont detect it
@@RetroBoyy oh I get it now. Thanks for answering even though it's not related to the tutorial lmao 👍
Update: I commented while I was doing the tutorial and it was just finished and it worked 100% 😄 THANK YOU SO MUCH

when i did it it said my luna was broken
luna meaning the thing in the modding process
nvm its just i needed to try again
I get an error code saying failed to open device the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. when trying to format the sd card
You have the sd card open in another tab. Close all Tabs then retry.
@@RetroBoyy ty bro
Hey bro, my new 3ds xl is modded with luma does it also works the same way ??
Yes
I'm assuming that if my laptop has a Micro SD slot then i don't need that adapter you have?
Yes
@@RetroBoyy Awesome, and this will work the same on a New 3DS XL, right? Sorry for the questions i'm just a real newbie at this.
@thatg9958 yes
@@RetroBoyy Really helpful, thanks a lot man!
For a 128gb sd card, the allocation unit needs to set what size?
32 i think. Just try different ones if it does not work. But the sd card needs to be fat32
@@RetroBoyy thanks!
The process is the same for the sd card and the microsdcard right?
Yes
You don’t lose game progress by doing This?
Nope
I did everything exactly right but none of my data transferred
That’s impossible
can i use any Sd or MicroSd? Or do I need a specific model/brand?
Any you want.
I have an important question, this won't make me lose my Pokemon and Smash save data right?, I remember reading something about those games being picked about the save data
No it wont
OP as always
What if I have a Mac
then video is up tomorrow:)
Worked mostly but I lost my games and hshop fbi etc
fire
Thank youuu
You're welcome!
