Changing storage folder

[peeam]

I purchased the app today. I would like to change the default storage folder. However when I try to do it, all I get is a box with a folder called 'recent' and no option any where to change the folder. Unlike the instructions, there are no 3 vertical lines on left. Thee are 3 lines on top right which only give option for enable/disable sd card.

Thanks for your help

The lines on the left are horizontal, not vertical. You need to "enable" the SD card.

These images show what I see.

Thanks Charles. Very helpful with the pictures.
My challenge is that in the left box under 'Recent', no drives are shown. I am using samsung galaxy tab s. Wonder if this has got something to the drives being locked.

Did you "enable" the SD card in the right-hand menu?

I received my Onyx Boox c67ml carta 2. Have installed a 32 g micro_sd. Also installed CC; the c67ml is running Android 4.2.2.

Problem is that trying to do the "enable sd" as per the pics here, there is no "SD card" selection; don't know if it is a problem with 4.2.2, Jelly Bean. When I just "select" the line item for the default folder, I get prompted for cancel, new folder or "go to folder". When I select "go to folder" I get prompted for the path to the folder, which I enter & I get an "unable to open" response. The path I entered is "/mnt/extsd/ebooks" and "/external_sd/ebooks".

I have not checked the FAQ/Doc again but don't know if CC is able/allowed to write to the SD card in 4.2.2. Thought I read that someone did have the books in the SD card in one of the forums.

The "Use SD Card" button appears only in Android 4.4.

CC can use SD cards in Android 4.2. The best way to choose the folder on the SD card is to use "go to folder" to go to "/" (the root) then navigate down from there. This avoids spelling errors and other android strangenesses related to how SD cards are mounted. In your case you would go to "/", navigate to "mnt", navigate to the SD card (whatever it is named), then to the folder.

Thank you very much; I hate it when the solution/answer is "simple" when I did lots of messing around to find/get something working.

I even had moved CC to the SD card! Now have the books loaded & the navigating from "/", I found that the path was "/mnt/external_SD/ebooks". Also hate it when a folder has 2 different names under different apps as per your description of "strangeness" in how SD cards are mounted or named.
