Thread starter Josquine Start date Nov 23, Joined Nov 23, Messages 6 Reaction score 3. I want to transfer files – documents and pictures – from my Nexus 7 2 to my PC. When I connected the two the first time after installing Windows 10, the computer seemed to take ages transferring material from the Nexus to the PC, created a folder called Nexus 7 in ‘This PC’ and then said the folder was empty.

It does not see the tablet as a separate drive. Fortunately the material is still on the Nexus, but I want to work on it in my PC. However many times I switch on and off, disconnect etc, the same thing happens, except for the apparent transfer of material.

The PC is recognising it as a multi-media device and an empty one at that. When I disconnect, the ‘new folder’ disappears but reappears when I connect it again. Find your wanted photos and import them. If you want to add a folder, click the triangle under “Add” and choose “Add folder”. Then navigate to the photo folder on your PC and import it. Or, you can also drag and drop the photos and photo folder to your Google Nexus 7. During the transferring, you should make sure your Nexus 7 is kept connecting with your PC.

Besides photos, this Android manager also empowers you to transfer music from computer to your Google Nexus 7. If you’re using your AirDroid account for remote transfers, they do offer premium features , which include up to 1GB of remote data transfer each month, up to MB for a single file transfer, no ads, remote camera access, and more.

However, if you just want to transfer a few pictures every now and then, the free account will probably be good enough for you.

It is surprising that it would have to be done every time the tablet is connected to the PC. I have owned the tablet for several months, have connected it to the computer repeatedly to transfer manuscript files, and have not had to do this before.

Ah well, the one surety in life is that things change. If the issue arises again, I now have the answer. Thank you. Not the answer you’re looking for?

After that, this software will automatically detect and connect your Nexus 7. Then you will see the below interface where all file folders are arranged on the left panel.

If you want a better way to transfer files to and from your Nexus 7, go wireless and use your local Wi-Fi connection to do the dirty work for you. When you open up AirDroid for the first time, you’ll be greeted with a screen to either register or skip registration. Obviously, you’re not required to register, but I highly recommend creating an AirDroid account, because it will allow you to track the device should you lose it, and gives you the ability to access the device even if it’s not on the same Wi-Fi network.

If you’re merely interested in transferring files from your Nexus 7 to your computer and vice versa at home, then skipping registration is fine—and the easiest method. After signing in, you’ll be asked whether or not you want to turn the Find Phone feature on. AirDroid has the ability to locate your device, wipe the device, and sound an alert for easy finding.

If you don’t want to turn these on now, you can enable them from the application settings later.
