If it's an android, you can change it within an app - like camera. Go into settings and change default storage location from internal storage to sd card.

If the app can't see your sd card, make sure it's "mounted" within your device. Depending on the software version: Go to settings, general, phone/tablet management, storage, from here you should be able to see the sd card. It is either ejected or mounted. Click on the sd card, if you can see the folders content, then it is installed correctly.

Also, if it was used in another device, it may need to be formatted to be used in your tablet. You can do that from the same setting menu.

Hope this helps.

SOURCE: How do I get app to download to sd card on my

from "manage space" send it to sd card. Many apps are not permitted to be moved to sd card if you still want to remove then "root" your android device and get whatever you want. But first know everything about "root" then go for it. If you know what is rooting then you can do anything with the android device even making a app a system app, controlling frequency of your processor and many more!!

SOURCE: Can you transfer your apps from your tablet to a SD card? The tablet is a Tel9Q. If yes how do I do it please.

In your settings you can find 'applicaton manager' find the app in question and press it. There should be a 'move to sd card' button. That should transfere most of the app data to the card for less tablet memory usage.

My tablet keeps giving me error message. Insuficcant space on tablet to download apps

This means the internal memory is full and the only way to add apps is to uninstall other apps that you have installed. Check to see if you have apps you no longer use and uninstall them.

I have put 32 gb sd card into excelvan tablet for external storage and its not saving?

Unfortunately, most apps will not load onto an SD card. You'll find that some apps will, if a card is installed, place data there. Mostly the SD Cards are installed for use in storing photos and videos taken by the user with the tablet camera. Newer tablets and smartphones are coming with more and more internal RAM to alleviate the "full" issue, but in most cases, you wither have to give up the new app, or remove one to get another.

How do I transfer apps and stuff to SD card on my trio stealth g5

If the tablet is running Android, in app manager click on the app you want to move and there should be a button 'move to sd card'. If it's 'greyed out', you can't move it.

How do I download apps onto this device?

The default on most tablets is to install apps to internal storage so the SD card does no good by itself. You can go into Settings>Applications and change the location for each app to the SD card. Likewise anything else you put on a tablet, particularly photos and videos get stored in internal storage. If you have taken a lot of photos and videos they can fill up your storage quickly. You can change this in the Camera app by tapping the settings icon and changing the storage option to SD card. You will still need to actually move existing photos and videos to the SD card manually or copy them to external storage and delete them. I would also change the image and video resolution in Camera settings to 640x480. This is plenty good enough for pictures you just want to look at on the device or share online.

How do I move my downloaded apps to my SD card?

You really should check the manual, to see how to move or to install the apps on the SD card. Not all Android tablets and phones work the same. You not giving any detail of yours does not make this easier.
Some systems can install the apps on the SD card and they can run from the card. Others only allow you to put apps on the SD card, but before you can use them, you have to install them in the internal memory.
Again, check the manual.

How to save video onto sd card

In the settings of the camera app it should have something called 'default save location' or 'Memory in use' set it to "Ext. SD" card. Most tablets have an internal SD so it is important that you select EXT SD card (external SD card).
If you have already found that setting, and 'Ext SD card' is not listed as an option, you need to format that SD in the tablet itself so it builds the folders it needs. Put it into a PC first though to copy off anything you need because formatting it will delete all data.
