SD card storage

I have been working on this for 4 days I even ran the apps that said it would fix this not reading SD card but tablet not rooted so didn’t work. It seems every item weather phone or tablet if it has KitKat 4.42 the SD card is no good. Google made it that way. U have to have 4.3 jelly bean. Can’t figure out weather to keep it or not otherwise was great.

Erica, I looked at the camera settings and there is nothing that will let me switch over to SD card.  I looked under the camera app.  Also, went into settings under apps, then into camera.  If you could just let me know where you found how to switch to the SD card for this tablet.  Thank you again.

I better just stop talking I don’t want to get in trouble or banned

Thanks thisgoesto11. Ya I think that’s the problem what I read online is Samsung found a Wk around but there the only one. HP is working on it but nothing yet. The supervisor said if they do he would let me know. We tried 3 diff phone calls but both finally gave up. I just want it to do storage or something I’m already down to 9 gigs left without and pic,movies or anything. U would think if Samsung did it HP could. I was told google just wants u to use the cloud due to piracy rules.

truckdude, exactly what is it you’re trying to do? I have an Android phone and a tablet, both KitKat 4.4.2.  Mine are Samsung, not HP, but that shouldn’t make a difference. The SD card isn’t useless on either. You can put files (music, photos, documents) on the SD card, but how to get them there depends on where the files are coming from.

Erica I downloaded 5 even the HP file manager with no avail. HP support said it just won’t work and said they are trying to find a work around but google has it locked out. I’m afraid to run the apps cause it says it might mess up tablet. I have them down loaded just hard to push button thank u for yr help. Again not trying to cause a problem just want it to wk

Erica can u tell me how to do it I can see SD card but went into settings and nothing. Hp had me download file manager but it doesnt see the card. Like I said lv the tablet wks great with HP printer. I just want to use my SD card for something.

Im not trying to create any problems I lv the tablet I’m use to an android phone and use SD card. If u go online and put in SD card and KitKat 4.42 there a ton on it. There are some apps the say it will fix it I down loaded them but kinda afraid to run them. Its not HSN or HP its google and only KitKat. HP support is great they really tried to help cause I told them 50,000 were sold. I even noticed this morning was a 8 in tablet with KitKat and they said expandable memory and I couldn’t believe it. I brought it up to us cs. I got all the acc for it coming  what to do?  I only shop HSN and have never had a problem.

I just got HP tablet yesterday I spent 2 1/2 he’s on the phone with HP and found out google with KitKat 4.42 changed the ability to read the SD card so the SD card is usles on KitKat. We tried to go around with no avail. So if u have KitKat forgot SD card. U can only use the 16 gig internal. If anyone has a work around I would lv to know. I lv the tablet but not KitKat not sure what to do. Its all ggogle deal.
