#SAMSUNG FILE TRNASFER FOR MAC ANDROID#
Please connect your Android device with a USB cable to get started. When I connected the wrong one, Android File Transfer said: No Android device found. After much frustration I discovered there was another one (it has a Verizon label in my case.) They both seem to be USB cables but I discovered one works with Android File Transfer and not the other.

NOTE: To connect be sure to use the right cable- in my case, I discovered 2 cables - one is a USB plain one that just charges the phone.

Please see link above and go to my posting under Interpret for full explanation.Īs already mentioned, download and install Android File Transfer app. The other cable, bearing the Verizon label, was entirely different. I discovered I had 2 different type USB cables- one seems to just charge and so Android File transfer didn't recognize the phone at all. (Always good to have a little levity at this level of frustration.)Īndroid File Transfer worked with S3 on Mac running Snow Leopard once I used the right cable! Kies seems to be the default suggestion to solve this issue, but it is terribly buggy and it accomplishes file transfer much the same way that nuking my house would get rid of spiders. I want my phone to work over USB and with AFT for a reason (speed, convenience, and better synchronization). However, my Windows device is not my primary computing device, and I am frequently away from home (otherwise, at this point, I would chuck the Mac and that would be that).Īs with the person who posted a similar question about the Galaxy S2, please do not post answers suggesting the use of Kies, Bluetooth, Wireless, and the like unless they lead to me being able to use Android File Transfer via USB. The phone is recognized and the SD card is recognized, and I can transfer files between them. My phone is recognized just fine by my desktop PC running Windows 7. I've tried with two different new cables and the error message is the same. The result is the same: app launches and then gives error message. I've turned it on, then on and off, then off, and restarted before, during, and after connection, and every combination possible. Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging I've downloaded Android File Transfer, and, when connected with my device, the app launches, but it just continues to demand that I attach the USB cable and or restart my device. I am trying to use Android File Transfer, having been promised that it would solve all my woes.

My Mountain Lion MacBook Pro (10.8.3) doesn't recognize my Samsung Galaxy S3 (4.1.1) for file transfer over USB. I have not seen a post concerning my particular phone, Mac hardware, and Mac OS. I saw some similar questions along these lines with newer Samsung devices, but I will post a question here anyway in case an answer for me ends up being an answer different than that for someone else.
