It cant be done. I've tried everything . These little pieces of crap tablets just won't do certain things period and no amount if off the wall ideas will work. I've kearned one thing though, next time buy a tab with a ton of internal memory
 
I have the latest version of JellyBean and it allows me to transfer apps to sd card except for the pre-installed bloatware.

It's very easy to transfer photos, music, and movies to the extSDcard.

Unfortunately, Android (ie Google) stopped the ability to move apps with Android 4 (tablets and phones). So presumably that is your problem.

While buying a device with much more memory will fix the problem, so will the most recent JB release (which may not be available for your tablet).

I don't know about other Android devices but the Tab 2 7.0 with 4.2.2 (latest update) added the "move to SD card" function and it works well. There always were a few apps which didn't allow being added to the external SD card in the 2.x OS and that is still true. It adds a hidden folder to the ext. SD card which I can't see using the File Managers on the Tab or connecting the USB from the Tab to the PC but is visible when looking at the Micro SD card by itself (removed from the Tab). The Application Manager has added a list called "ON SD CARD"

i have a samsung galaxy tab 2 and i have games of total size 15gb installed in my external sd. Only way i found around is by mounting the obb and data folders to the sd card. To do that you need root and an appropriate app like GL to SD or Folder Mount. GL to SD is free to use, folder mount costs 2.5 euros
