  1. My internal storage on my Galaxt A7 is almost full but the SD card has plenty of space However  when I analyse the internal storage in Settings,the bulk is sitting in something called 'Other' I cannot find out what is in 'Other', there are no folders or anything.

I have deleted all unnecessary apps, cleared cache., but this has not feed up much space.  How do I move 'Other ' rto the SD card.Many thanks,Megan

An SD card shouldn't read as other. This means your phone doesn't trust the card. It should read as SD card. How old is the SD card? Prehaps you need to get it replaced. You want it to be a reconhinised card as some phones have been known to purge data on unrecognized cards.

Unfortunately you cannot access that folder or simply move it to your SD card

My Samsung Galaxy S Device don't use a SD Card as it was removed from some of the Samsung Galaxy S Devices. It's not good for internal storage uses and storage space does run out with no backup storage space in some Samsung Galaxy S devices where the SD Card can't be used
