Andrews, > Yes. They're there also. Same garbage that I have never needed to use. :-) Long ago people trashed their computers by deleting "garbage" files they didn't recognise . Only to find out that that "garbage" was actualy used by the OS. > Well, some of it is the installed apps but the point is I make a single > top-level directory on the internal memory just as I do on the external > sd. The problem is that you think the SD card is yours to manage, while Android thinks its his. And I'm afraid that Android can out-stubborn you. :-( :-) IOW, don't try to fight it, its not something you can win. What you /could/ do is to, on the 'puter, write a bit of code/script that will remove all empty (root) folders from the SD card. A clean-up so to speak. Regards, Rudy Wieser
