Local Files

Until recently all my Local Files were on my PC but I've now copied those files on to my tablet. I've tried using the "Add Source" function on my desktop but it doesn't seem to pick the tablet up, all my devices are on the one network. Any advice please?

Hey @spiritofradio, welcome to the Community!

Sorry to hear you're having trouble with this. We'll be glad to help out though.

When using local files, you need to import them from your desktop. It's not possible to add a source from a mobile device like a tablet.

You can find more info on this here.

Hope that helps clear everything up.

That's disappointing. I hardly use my laptop these days and was hoping to be able to do everything through my tablet.

Hey @spiritofradio.

Thanks for getting back to us.

We definitely understand where you're coming from with this. Hopefully the feature can be available to use from more devices in the future.

Hope you have a great day 🙂
