I am having a complete brain fart. I just transfered to a COP because I was having issues with my other phone. I am trying to set it up like I had with my other phone but for the life of me I cannot remember how to access the download folder on my phone without rooting. I know it is possible because my other phone I wasn't rooted and was able to access the DCIM folder, downloads folder and many other folders.

I mean is there something I am supposed to download or something? I mean I used to be able to hook the phone up to my PC and then access the folders that way, I was also able to view them on my phone itself using a program like astro. But I am not seeing anything but the following folders: .android_secure, .bookmark_thumb1, .estrongs, Android, data, LOST.DIR, slacker, and tmp

Can someone please help me out with this? I would highly appreciate it, because it is driving me nuts!!!

Thanks again...
