I'm currently using android studio to develop an app, but my pc seems pretty bad for it so I'm very afraid that it stops working and i can't access my codes anymore. Is there any way I can transfer the files to another computer? I have the app folder with all the codes, even tried using whatsapp, email and google drive to send the documents but it won't let me. If I buy another computer can I use an external hard drive to transfer my apps to the new computer? Idk if it matters, but i'll be switching from a MacOS to a Windows.
Sure. Just copy the folder where your project is in to an external hard drive, copy it in the other PC, install the same version of Android version you are using in the other PC and open that copied folder as a project with Android Studio.
There should be no problem.
Maybe you have also to reconfigure things like Firebase access or the like, but with repeating the process you did it should be enough.

I have an android project checked out from git into an ubuntu server. I will be doing git check-in and check-out files inside this ubunut machine.
I have installed Android studio in my local system .i.e. windows machine.
Is it possible to use FTP in Android Studio to directly import the project from ubuntu server and edit them without copying to my local windows system. I did search around the internet and couldn't find any posts regarding how to do this.
I'm aware that we can install Android studio in Ubuntu itself, but I'm not allowed to do that.
It would be very helpful if anyone throws some light on this.
FTP is not enough, you need something like NFS that allows a user on a client computer to access files over a computer network much like local storage is accessed.
It looks like this functionality is only available on IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition, which Android Studio is based on. It looks like the server only stores the files and IDEA on the client does the heavy lifting. For Android, there's also the question of running emulators, which I assume is also done on the client.
Not sure what the delta is between AS and IDEA, but you can develop Android apps on it.
So my laptop has seriously crashed & i REALLY need my android working files (not backed up)
Is there any way I can get the app from my debug phone into android studio (in another laptop) & have them as working android files - pleaseee help!!
If it's your own application and you own copyrights, you can use some tools for decompiling Android apk. Quick google gave me this.
or you can have a look at Is there a way to get the source code from an APK file?
I'm making a script to sync some files from my pc to my android.
How can I list all androids directories connected (via usb) to my computer?
I tried to use this http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/488836b0-84e9-4c0c-b2cf-dd19f6e70f74 but I'm having too much trouble with all this windows dependencies. Tried to use the windll.kernel32 from ctypes too, but found it just too confusing to use (the lack of examples doesn't help).
There's any way to do this without installing an Android SDK?
If you mean detecting which removable media is Android storage, you could scan all removable drives for the Android/ or .android_secure/ folders, which would suggest the device is Android. Documentation here may be useful.
how can I save a file from QT application running in PC to Android phone using USB or Android emulator?
thanks for your answers!
If you are using Necessitas, if you go into QT_src folder on your C:\ you can see that you have a lot o examples which one of them is called http, it is app that is capable of downloading files to your phone or to your pc through the network.
Hope I helped a bit. If you can't find folder just check into QT_SDK folder if you can't find it then maybe update sdk and be sure to download source files for android.
This will probably seem like a noob question but I have managed to intall phonegap with eclipse and to get the emulator and samples running. However, I am confused on how I would export this inorder to try it on my phone. Is it the .apk file in the /bin folder of the application? Or is there more? I mean like pictures and other files. I'm not used to eclipse. How do I get it on my phone and eventually the market(free only apps).
Thanks
Yes, it's the APK file that is the application. You should also be able to connect your device to your computer and run directly on it.
