Got my pics to transfer!!

Lots of us were finding that you could not transfer pics as we always did from our old phone to our new one. I finally got it to work!

I had already found that if I connected the phone to USB and created a new file, I could move my pics over to the phone. The problem with that (to me) was that now I was going to have more than one folder containing pics to deal with.

Tonight I used Astro file manager and navigated to the new picture folder that I had created and did the following:
1. select the 'Multi' button at the top
2. then select all
3. Then copy
4. Next navigate to the DCIM folder and then into the 'Camera' folder (where all of your new pics are being stored)
5. Click Paste

That's it. Everything back in one place!!
 
All I did was delete the DCIM folder, then copy/paste the DCIM folder from my laptop that I copied from my Droid X.
I also successfully transferred all of pics from the other folders I had with no problems.
