Richard-BKK Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Does anybody have experience on how-to connect a Samsung Galaxy Note II with a Apple Macbook Pro (running OSX 10.9.1)? The idea is to be able to copy files (pictures) from the telephone to the Macbook Pro... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Hello All, not sure about the Samsung, but I highlight pic's drag the file/files to a folder or desktop of my Mac using a usb cable from my Nokia N8. When doing my wife's Nokia Lumia 720-Windows OS, have to remove micro-sd card and into the card reader to transfuer pic's. rice555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard-BKK Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Hello Lite Beer, Those two options (KIES and FileTransfer) I tried and where not successful, KIES basically doesn't do anything useful (with exception that I can make a backup of my phone) and Adroid-FileTransfer keeps telling me to reconnect or restart my device... The solution I have now found is to use a converter plug from Micro-B USB (what is the little USB plug which fits into my phone) to a regular USB 2.0 female plug, by using this plug I can connect a standard USB Kingston 16GB flashdrive, which the Samsung Galaxy Note II mounts as USBDriveA. This option is pretty fast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GooEng Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I connected a Galaxy S3 to my MBP no problem and copied files both ways using the android filetransfer app. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
