Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to access webstorage straight from the filemanager app on the Prime instead of having to go via MyCloud. It would be convenient if I can just see the webstorage as a drive.
Also, is there an option to automaticly sync files from a certain folder when the device connects? I see the mysyncfolder in the MyCloud app but i can't find this folder in the filemanager.
Thanks
Try file expert.
It has box.net and dropbox.

This may be common sense but I was having problems earlier syncing my kindle for mac and pc books with my Kindle for android. The kindle app on the nook is a nice alternative to the built in B&N reader for the availability of .mobi files.
Basically this is how I wireless sync my kindle app with my kindle for mac. If there is a better way I'd love to hear it.
Requirements:
-Dropbox app and dropbox on pc/mac.
-.mobi ebook file (or any other file readable by kindle)
-Root Explorer or similar
-SD card.
1) take the .mobi file or .azw file you want in your kindle app and put (or copy) it in your drop box. (I use calibre to edit the metadata/ add a table of contents if they are not already present before I move them).
2)Open dropbox app and download ebook. Then exit dropbox.
3) Open root explorer then to /sdcard/dropbox. Hit menu then multi-select, select the book (or books) you want to move and hit move. Go back to parent folder.
4) Go to the kindle folder (should be in /sdcard/kindle) you have to use the kindle folder on the sd card.
5) Click paste and exit root explorer.
6) To get your kindle app to sync with your sd card you have to pop the sd card out and put it back in. I just press it twice.
7) Open up kindle app and your books should be there.
Obviously you can avoid doing this by using an sd card reader and just dragging the books, into the kindle directory straight from your computer but this is just a neat way to do it via wireless.
Also you can load apks from dropbox if you want.
On my sd card i created a folder called kindle...... i put my files in there and the kindle app see's them all. woot
Where does the default browser store downloaded apk files? I downloaded a few apk files that refuse to install, so i'd like to move them to my sdcard so i can sideload them using adb. Where would i find the downloaded files?
They're under Library>My Nook>My Files>My Downloads
Hope this helps.
that will not allow you to install your apks, just show you where they are. your best bet is to install "root explorer" and open it and go to the media folder, then my files & finally, my downloads. install your apk from there, or move it to SD. Hope this helps.

Thanks Swiissjokr. Found them using ES File Explorer.
/media/My Files/My Downloads/.
Copied them over to the SD card, and will sideload them from my laptop using adb.
Where the downloads go
After practically pulling my hair out over this same problem, I finally found my downloads by going to my library. First is the Books category, scroll down there are Movies, keep scrolling all the way down through all the categories and the last one is My Files. That is where I find my downloads. Hope this helps. :fingers-crossed:
Native/Stock Download app doesn't seem to recognize any files put in the /sdcard/Download folder.
I moved a bunch of files from my previous phone into the /sdcard/Download folder but none of the files seem to be recognized at all by
the native/stock download app (they simply do not appear on the screen).
And I am sure it is the correct folder because I have downloaded more files since I got this phone and the files are saved in the same location
(/sdcard/Download) and being recognized by the stock download app.
I have also ES Explorer installed but just thought I like the look of native download app plus it is linked from the notification bar.
Anyway I could fix this?
Thanks!
and being recognized by the stock download app.

The Download app does not "recognize" files, it has a history of files you downloaded through it.
To access the data on the storage, use apps such as "File manager" (Stock), "OI File Manager" (free) or "ES File manager" (also free)
share a folder on my phone to appear in my network places to send and receive files from within windows?
Should be simple. yes?

I find Dropbox or Google Drive to be the easiest solutions for this. It sets up a folder on your PC and whatever you put in it will sync online and be accessed through the respective apps on the phone.
With a little more investigation, Samba File Sharing located here does the trick. Astro and Ez File explorer allow you to view files on your network, but not the other way around. Samba adds your phones internal storage as a network folder. If your phone has an external sd card, then you can add to show it as well. Though, I would like the option to only allow certain folders to be shared, but this works just fine!
Hi, where can I find offline files from One Drive in phone?

Well, most likely in your download folder, but you can also check under Android/data/... and finder the OneDrive folders. Sometimes file are stored there.
I don't use OneDrive, that's why my answer is that generic.
I use Dropbox tho, and it has an export button, if there is one on OneDrive I think you'll be able to save the file to a location of your choice.
Have a good day
Once you mark a file or folder offline, OneDrive will list it in a 'Files Available Offline' view.
Tap the 'Me' icon at the bottom of the app, then tap 'Files Available Offline' to instantly find all your offline files and folders.
