Installing Apps to SD card, NOT Device Memory

I just received my first ever BlackBerry (the Bold), after using Windows PDAs for several years. I installed some third party apps (some E-books) using the Desktop Manager. I didn't see an option to select whether I wanted the apps on the SD card or in Device Memory, so I assume they went to Device Memory.
Is there a way to install apps like e-books to the SD card instead of device memory?
Thanks.

Actually I once had an app that claimed if you saved the "over the phone" installation file (forgot extension) to the SD card via the media manager and double clicked on it it would be installed on the SD card. I do not know if the app transferred to memory to run.

Reset your iPad. Press and hold both the power and home buttons for 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till you iPad starts on it's own. Now try and download an app.

Lenovo A328 - Does not install apps on SD Card?

Bought this phone recently and I noticed that even if I put SD card and select it as the "default write" storage in the settings, apps I downloaded on Google Play still do not install directly to the card and I kept on getting insufficient storage space error messages. Is it really like that or the phone I got might be defective? I tried different SD cards and got the same results. Thanks!

Hi
No,your phone isn't defective.
With the launch of Android 4.4 KitKat, Google has imposed some serious limitations regarding SD cards(that's the main reason you can't move apps to the SD card).
Secondly some apps really need to be installed to the internal memory.
Thirdly the A328 has a limited 4GB internal memory and about 2.2GB are used by the system,so...
Again...No,your phone isn't defective.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

XP PC Does not see Media Card. Device Memory and Media Card are not available.....

I am starting a new thread because the old one was marked as resolved and it isn't.
My Windows XP desktop is no longer seeing my BB Storm Media Card. I am getting the error:
"Device Memory and Media Card are not available because the Mass Storage is currently in use."
I have followed these directions:
Options > Memory >
Media Card Supoport - ON
Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) - ON
Mass Storage Mode Support - ON
Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected - YES
SAVE
I have application free pace 8.1 MB
and the error message:
"Device Memory and Media Card are not available because the Mass Storage is currently in use."
The card is there and is seen by my BB Storm. Media > Explore
I have removed and reinstalled the card.
On the desktop I have tried Explore as well as Disk Management and nothing shows up for the Media Card although the Blackberry itself is present.
Please help.

Give this KB a try perhaps?

How to install apps on sd card in Windows 8.1

Why is it not possible to install apps from the Windows Store on to sd cards in the Windows 8.1 OS????
This is absolutely frustrating because you guys obviously blocked the functionality to change it since Windows 8, and since I've updated my tablet has been unable to hold as many applications and games I need.
Don't tell me to clean my file space or uninstall things, alot of your users are fed up and ready to ditch the OS all together so why don't you guys address the problem in an update asap rather than misleading your trusted users. Spare a thought for
people with 32gb tablets that are raising your overall sales of tablets with your OS on them, or get ready for a lot more android tablets to take their places.

who do you mean "you guys"?

You may either goto http://store.ovi.com/ thru' your Phone browser or use the Nokia Store application on your phone..Login and select the Application you want. Select Download (..if its a paid application complete the formalities of the Payment) and the application will start downloading. When complete it will proceed for installation..so follow the instruction in your phone display.
Other way is to http://store.ovi.com/ on you PC.. Login, Select the application and click 'Download' and it will give you an option to send link thru' SMS. When you receive the link ..Open it and follow instructions..
If you search for any application thru' Google and want to download / Buy it from the Developers' or other site..first download it to the PC.

ITunes App Store Gift card not activated properly

I have purchase more than $1000 (thousand) gift cards and redeemed them successfully, but my last 25$ (Can) App Store could not be redeemed. I used camera to scan the code, and then also tried manual to input correct code. But I get error message on iPhone App Store - " your card/code is not activated properly"!
I am not sure what it means. Any help is much appreciated. Contacted apple customer care, waiting for their reply.
Swarose.

When you buy a card the store has to activate it (they usually swipe it through the till) so that it can then be used - are you able to take it back to the store that you bought it from and ask them to activate it proplerly ?
If not then how did you contact Support ? I usually say to contact them via this page for gift cards : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes (and they may want images of the front and back of the card, and possibly its receipt)

Installed apps yesterday - they are not visible today. What happened?

I have Mac running OS X 10.5.8. I updated Firefox yesterday to 5, and also updated Adobe as you suggested. Installed App tabs and liked them alot. Today I got online and noticed the app tabs are all missing. What happened?
PS: I really like Firefox - use it all the time. Rather use FF than Safari or others.

right click the folder, select properties and then the repair button.

Move/Install apps to SD Card

Is it possible to "move" applications to SD card? The only two Firefox Phones available in India are Intex Cloud FX and Spice Fire One MX, both are lower end phones and do not have much internal memory. I wish to buy one but I feel internal will give me a bit of head ache if apps can only be installed in phone memory.
Thank you in advance.

Apps that are available will take up very little space on the phone, so there is no worry behind that. At this moment, I do not believe that it is possible to move apps to the SD card.

Moving Apps between Mempry Card and Device

Is there a way to move apps from your device to your memory expansion card and vice versa? I recently downloaded QuickVerse to my memory card. It runs but it is so slow, I was thinking it might be faster if the app resided on the device.

How to move an app from sd card to phone memory

I use BlackBerry z10. When I install some app,but it automatically saved into sd card. So I cannot run the app. How can I move the app? Or how can I set the setting so every time I install an app,it would only go to my phone memory?

How are you installing the app ?.
Apps will only install on the phone, the sd card can only store media and files.
Android apps (apk) have to be sideloaded.

Bought app w/ itunes card not on my home computer

I bought a game app "stone of destiny" with an itunes gift card under my login name. But I bought it at my work computer(this isn't my main itunes) not my home laptop. I cannot figure out how to get it on my iPhone without having to delete all my other apps just get the one. Is there a way to get it on my iPhone? It doesn't show up under purchased in my iTunes library. Am I just going to have to rebuy the app on my laptop?
Please help me figure this out!
Thanks

By design, the iPhone syncs with _one and only one_ iTunes library for media content, including apps. Trying to sync to another library results in all the content being erased and replaced.
So yes, download the app on your home laptop and sync it, or buy it directly on the phone.
The good news is that you can do that for free, as long as you're using the same iTunes Store account. You'll be prompted for the free download after you click/tap Buy.
