Internal Storage

Post by bensonspooky »

Hello,

I accidentally synced my MM from my Windows 10 to my Android internal storage instead of the SD card. Could someone please let me know how do I remove the MM database from my internal storage, keep the one in the SD card only?

Any suggestions/comments are much appreciated.

Thank you.

You can set Internal to Sync no files and SD to Sync the files. On the next Sync it should remove the files from Internal and Sync to SD instead.

Thank you. Is it possible to remove them via my internal storage instead of via MM?

Yes, you could, just make sure MediaMonkey isn't set to Sync them again (you can even disable Internal Device Profile if you want).

You can see in the Device Profile where MediaMonkey is set to Sync the files. It may be to the Music folder.

I followed your instructions and synced NO FILE to internal storage and SYNCED those I want to SD card. It didn't work, all my videos still have duplicates in my internal storage. I guess I have to go in my phone and delete them one by one, which will take a very long time.

Thank you.

Did you disable the Internal (in which case Sync won't remove files) or did you leave it enabled without any files selected to be Synced (in that case check the delete options in the Device Profile).

I am sorry, I mean it was disabled but I enabled it before started the sync.

OK, I went to LIBRARY FOLDERS and under INTERNAL STORAGE, I saw the following:

Movies
Music
synctours
video

Should I delete them all?

Under SD Card, it has all my stuff in them

For more on Sync settings see: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/Sync_M ... oid_device

You'll need to analyze the contents of those folders before you choose to delete them.

Well, there's nowhere I can see what is in those folders. When I opened them, none of them show my videos. I guess the only way to remove them is to go into the phone storage and remove them one by one. What a mess.
