Hi ,

I have a music folder on my Samsung galaxy S4 which I want to edit with mp3tag.

The phone supports two usb modes. MTP and PTP,

but when I try to select the folder (or for that matter any other folder on the phone) I get the following message:

has anyone has a suggestion (besides plugging my sd card out, and sticking it directly in the computer) that will help me edit my music?

thank you very much in advance,

Guy

You have to find the setting for MSC mode.
