As long as this stuff is not apps.

Then you use what tools you know to place your files on the card.

Most Android users learn about ES File Explorer or just pop the card into a PC to copy the stuff onto that.

Yeah that file program doesn't work either. The problem with these Samsung Android tablets is that apps only go on internal memory. I got suckered into thinking that adding a 32gig memory card would take care of that. So what we have now is both Samsung and Android playing the blame game whenever someone ask why this is If you want a tablet that you can download a lot of apps too you have to spend alot of money for one. Right now mine can't even update all the crappy apps it came with because its out of memory space,yet i have a 32gig sd card in it with nothing on it.

How to load apps directly to the SD card instead of internal memory?

But that topic is so well discussed that I'm going to shortchange you. If the app can move to SD card, it will show such an option in the usual settings and apps panel.
