Hey Guys, I'm wondering whether you can help...
I've plugged my Galaxy S into both of our macs at home and I have mounted both of them but they won't show up as mass storage devices

My SGS has an inbuilt 16gb sd card but doesn't have a external one, you think this could be the problem?

All I want to do is move picture files over to the memory.

Hi Dr. Evil,

did you check your usb-mode on the phone? Maybe you are in debug-mode too?

USB debugging (Settings>Applications>Development) must be switched on for it to mount properly.
