Re: Moving Files from internal card to external card.

[Pent]

Are there write permissions for everyone in the directory and on the
files you want to copy move to ?

I believe all the permissions are set because I can move the files if I am moving them around on the same card. The problem olny occurs when I try to move from one sd card to the other.

I am making some progress. I have got the action to work as "Copy" instead of "Move". Now I am just trying to delete the the files in the directory after I copy them.

Same problem, s2, ICS.... moving internal to internal fine but internal to external doesn't work, permissions are writable. Not rooted ?! Goal is using Pano, can not pick output folder but would like to auto move those to the external sd card upon exiting the app. Help? :/

Does the problem persist when trying to move files the other way?

I was working on the same problem. This is what I came up with. Copy then delete.

Move And Delete Wallpaper (25)
A1: List Files [ Dir:PicSpeed Wallpapers/PicSpeed Wallpapers/My PicSpeed Wallpapers Match: Include Hidden Files:Off Variable:%wpmove ]
A2: For [ Variable:%wpmove Items:%wpmove() ]
A3: Copy File [ From:%wpmove To:/storage/extSdCard/wallpaper Use Root:Off ]
A4: End For
A5: List Files [ Dir:PicSpeed Wallpapers/PicSpeed Wallpapers/My PicSpeed Wallpapers Match: Include Hidden Files:Off Variable:%wpdelete ]
A6: For [ Variable:%wpdelete Items:%wpdelete() ]
A7: Delete File [ File:%wpdelete Shred Level:0 Use Root:Off ]
A8: End For

Try doing that using shell commands. It'll give you a more meaningful error, or it will work (which is great since you can run shell commands from tasker).
