What 4.2 camera are you using?
I use INFECTION 2.1 [Neo's CM10.1] and it saves to sdcard0/DCIM by default [sdcard0 = microSD, sdcard1 = emmc].
i posted this when I was on Sense. Since moving to CM also, it is saving to the external. I forget if back on sense with the flashable 4.2 camera that was posted if it used internal, of if I wasn't used to the naming convention as you mentioned.

Are you using infection (neo's cm10.1)? If so it should save to microSD.

Definitely no way to combine the 2 as far as i know. (that's what wp7 does and locks the ext sd up).

What are you downloading? When downloading an app I think it requires the space to be available in the "device memory", that partition is where apps install be default and is about 2 GB. If you are downloading a single file over 19 GB, then you would have to move the files from your SD card to your phone memory to make the space available in a single place.

If you're downloading a file from your browser, you can set the default download location to your SD card instead of your phone memory.
If you're downloading an app and you're out of space, yeah your only option is to move some apps to the SD.
I don't use any phone memory I have 1 of 2gb free in phone memory but my phone says I have 10gb internal but I have used it all then I click "external_SD" I have 20gb open in that area

As explained above: you need to have enough room in the phone's internal memory. Go to settings/applications and move some existing apps to the external SD. I had to do this recently when trying to install Modern Combat 3.
I have room on internal memory for the phone it tlself the phone took my 32gb men card and split it into internal and external is there a way I can make it all one instead of two? I download tons of music and roms so I deal with the SD more than the device itself

Ok, all you need to do is set the default download location to your external SD instead of the internal. In gingerbread it's pretty easy to find in the browser settings...I have to assume that's where it is in ICS too.

Listen: the memory card IS NOT split. You have an external SD card. That's the one you can take out and hold in your hand. You also have another one of those that you can't take out; it's built into the phone. That's the internal SD card. Two different cards, not one split into two.

just like EVERY other phone out there, its advertised as 16gb
thats 16gb TOTAL storage.
it gets divided up into PARTITIONS just like EVERY OTHER phone
system
'internal' which is where APPLICATIONS get installed
/mnt/sdcard which is 12+/- GB of USER ACCESSIBLE SPACE *this is where stuff gets DOWNLOADED when you are downloading from the interwebz
/mnt/sdcard/external_sd (/mnt/emmc in AOSP roms) THIS IS THE EXTERNAL sd card...the REMOVABLE one
why do you keep thinking you are getting screwed out of space? or that anything is any different than other phones?

I absolutely love CM10! It's perfect and just about everything here works perfectly....except the external SD. Just curious, why doesn't it work through the ROM like it would on the stock ROM? I remember having an OG EVO 4G and it worked fine with it in CM9 and all other versions, is it because of MTP?

Sorry I didn't get exactly what you said, explain?
I was more so just wondering why it doesn't function correctly on this, like I have to download Multi-Mount on the Play Store everytime I want to use it
Is there a reason my phone doesnt give me the option to move an app to the Sd card?
I dont wanna fill up my internal space again, like I did on my last phone. But no apps have the "move to sd card" option.
How do I put apps on the external sd card??
Just got the phone two days ago. Im not rooted.
Verizon phone.

The ability to move apps to SD was removed in Jelly Bean by Google. Samsung has recognized this limitation and has developed a way to do just that. The Samsung fix is rolling out to the international variants first and hopefully soon to the various US ones.
Really? Thats lame. So there is no way to put my apps on the sd card? I have a lot of apps & have taken up almost half of the internal memory already.
So no way to do this at all?

The Samsung fix only moves the apk. App data is still internal.

Use the Folder Mount app to move data to your external SD card and create symlinks to the internal storage.

Go into your camera settings and tell it to save to SD card and free up some of your phones space

Or use something like ES File Explorer File Manager from the Play Store or am alternative browser like Dolphin. ES has a downloader that is one of the choices when downloading a file from the web. In the ES settings you can set its default download location to the external card. Dolphin lets you pick the download location at each download. The TouchWiz camera and some others let you specify where to store photos.
Also, Titanium backup and other backup apps let you back up to the external card.
And most important of all, especially if you are crack flashing TouchWiz ROMs, keep your TWRP or CWM backups on the external card. They can be 2 GB+ each if you don't use compression, and not much better if you do. I have a 16 GB Nexus 7 and its a constant battle with backup space. I usually keep one solid reference backup and my latest only. I would love to be able to throw a 64GB card in it.

Best thing for you to do is educate yourself. ...As the extsd card is invaluable and something many other phone manufacturers don't even offer any more..

Go to storage in settings and the 2nd to bottom option is to transfer data to sd card! Done!!
Or use a file manager and transfer to your SD card only the videos and images that you choose.
I have to say though, that the method mentioned above, is nuch easier and less time consuming

using a file manager like root explorer or file commander is the best i think, but it probably work in other ways to
