Hi,

In AnkiDroid, get to the deck selector front screen and press the Menu Button then Preferences. Hit "General". Hit "Deck Path" (see DeckPath.png). That tells you where on your phone the decks are being stored and will typically be "/mnt/sdcard/decks" or "/mnt/sdcard/AnkiDroid" . Don't change this! Just hit cancel. 

Now, connect your phone to a PC with a USB cable and mount it as USB storage it should show up a a USB disk. You can find your decks in the "decks" or "AnkiDroid" folder (see DecksonAndroidPhone.png). The .anki files are your current files and the most recent backup copy is in the backup folder. If you downloaded media for a deck (pictures or sounds), you'll need everything in the .media folder too.

Cheers,

Jamie
