Each 7 days we offer to just take in inquiries for Tech Savvy columns and then to research for the responses.

This prompted one particular reader to check with why we really do not print the inquiries and answers in our weekly column. Pretty frankly, we put out the option each individual 7 days but it’s been a lengthy time considering that any individual took gain of it. We are much more than willing to research concerns and we can depend on CTC to assistance us out when frequent browsing doesn’t assistance or when authentic technological abilities are needed. We aren’t the technological genius sort as a lot as we are tech fans and people of know-how.

So our reader stated it’s possible putting in a problem would aid impress other readers to do so and her question wasn’t similar to new gadgets and tech as substantially as it was something a minor far more utilized. Specifically a 2017 Samsung J7. I use a Dell at operate and have a blend of tech at house, but at home, as everyone who reads this column considerably regularly may perhaps know, I am an Apple consumer at heart. But I’m also a robust believer in continuous understanding and I love challenge-fixing and on the lookout for solutions.

Dilemma: How do I get my cellphone, a 2017 Samsung J7, to down load images and video from my phone’s memory to my SD card? I have to have to free of charge up room on my phone memory.

Solution: So I experienced to do a small analysis to occur up with the solution to this query and considering the fact that I really do not have a Samsung, I couldn’t test it myself for empirical know-how but other people on the net had. And this is one of the factors the online has wonderful worth. I’ve made use of YouTube to locate out how to correct a vacuum and how to alter a headlamp on my motor vehicle. For this a single, I relied on checking a number of sources by way of a Google look for and identified a checklist for this move with Verizon and checked many YouTube movies to see if they were advocating the same detail. This is 1 factor we no question have in frequent across platforms is the need to have for extra place, even electronic place. For some, that implies acquiring much more memory on the phone up front or adding storage room and area for backups in the Cloud, or a combination of both of those. The photographs we just take are time capsules of our everyday lives and value the memory and memory house.

• Subsequent, on the prime ideal hand major corner of the display screen, there should be 3 selections, share, delete and three dots, which suggest the obtain to far more selections. Contact the 3 dots, which are referred to as the Menu Icon, to open up the gate. 

There appear to be a couple of approaches to go from below. The most basic in a few of YouTube films is to put a finger on a photo and maintain it to mark it as 1 to go. Keeping on a person image will open up an selection to select all in the major remaining hand corner of the display screen. Potentially you want to continue to keep some and move other folks. In that circumstance, choose the shots or video independently by tapping on them.

• Now that you’ve selected the pictures you want to go, faucet the Menu Icon, the three dots in the higher ideal corner, again, and then tap Move. 

The SD card must be a single of the alternatives.

• Contact the SD card folder.
