    Hi all,

    I got myself a Samsung S3 a couple of weeks ago and am loving it!

    However, I have a Macbook Pro at home and when I tried connecting the phone to it, it doesn't show up on the desktop. Its a bit of a pain as as I have my music on the MacBook and do all my downloading on that also.

    Is there something I can do to allow the phone be recognised by the MBP and do the usual drag 'n drop?

    Thanks,

    try airdroid in the google play market. transfer files over your wifi?

    the android file transfer works for me on nexus, but the screen has to be unlocked.
