Hi, everyone

Got my mid 9742 two weeks ago, very happy with video, audio and 9.7'' size. However, there are 2 problems bothering me, I am the first time android user, not sure is tablet's problem or not.
1. mini SD card. I bought a 32 g mini sd card, mid 9742 recognized it right away, but when I tried to copy a picture from the internal storage to the mini SD card, it won't work. However, it seems I can copy somthing from mini SD card to the internal storage. I use ES File Explorer.
2. I am so happy with mid 9742, I bought two of them. I use them to try oovoo, when I use one to call the other, both of them will make "chiping" sounds but no showing live picture or voice.

Again, I am the first time android user, These are probably not tablet's problems. Thank you very much if anyone can help me fix these problems.

Hi cailuqin

The miniSD card is called a microSD card

Sounds like your microSD card is set to ReadOnly ( needs to be set to Read/Write)

What Name microSD Card?
What Class microSD Card?

Also, please take time to explain how you are trying to copy to and from.
Example - Is the microSD plugged into your tablet or plugged into your computer?
If the microSD card is plugged into your computer Using an Adapter ,
take a close look at the Adapter amd make sure its no the the LOCKED position
(there is a little slider on the side of the Adapter)
if the Adapter is locked position, slide to the Unlocked position.

(push the slider down to make it Read/Write).

I talked with Coby support, they told me the current solution for micro SD card problem is to connect the tablet with a PC, the internal storage and the micro SD card will appear as two separate removable drive in your pc, then you can move files around. Well, it's better than nothing, but I hope they can fix the problem and allow tranfer files between the internal storage and micro SC freely without the PC.
