Well I have this 2019 Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8 in. tablet that this site seems not to know exists, and I've had a great deal of trouble connecting a USB cable to it from my Mac with Android File Transfer. It never just connects, it puts me through a long hassle of cannot connect messages on my Mac screen, and endless allow/deny buttons on the tablet, and no matter how many times I hit the allow button AFT just keeps saying it cannot access the tablet. I've been able to get i to work in the past, after much fussing, but today it's just not going to work for me, and I'm wanting to put some files on the tablet, so this is not good.
Now I know I'm supposed to use MTP or file transfer mode, but I've looked around this tablet a very long time and while I can find MTP host and the MTP application there are no settings for either one, and I cannot find any way at all to just let my Mac connect with the tablet without the hassles. I just want to plug it in and go. I could do that with my old Acer tablet, but not with this one.
If anyone knows how to solve this problem I'd greatly appreciate the help.
Thanks,
a.
