Help SD Card Switch Question!!!

Since the aria only comes with 2gb of space im buying a 16gb sd card. Will my apps and pictures be gone when I put the new sd card in? If so, is there a way I can copy the apps? Plz help!
Hi drewdawg,

Yes, your apps, photos, MP3s,etc that are on the 2GB card will stay on the card when it's removed (IE: You won't have access to them).

What I did when I upgraded my Desire's SD card was:-

1 Mount the card as an external drive on my PC
2 Copy everything to a new directory on the PC, keeping the original folders
3 Install new/bigger SDcard
4 Mount the new card and copy everything back from the PC

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Magani
