17
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,359
storage to make room for all the apps

00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,679
you can throw at it and how to move your
19
00:00:39,359 --> 00:00:44,238
existing apps to the USB storage if
20
00:00:41,679 --> 00:00:46,079
you're starting to run out of space on a
21
00:00:44,238 --> 00:00:48,919
side note if you still have one of the
22
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:50,759
old fire sticks with fir OS version 6 do
23
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,239
yourself a favor and throw it out and
24
00:00:50,759 --> 00:00:55,079
get a new model you will be happy you
25
00:00:53,238 --> 00:00:56,759
did I have a lot to show you so if
26
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:58,759
you're ready to see how you can multiply
27
00:00:56,759 --> 00:01:01,640
your system storage on your Amazon Fire
28
00:00:58,759 --> 00:01:11,118
stick grab your otes and let's
29
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:13,438
[Music]
30
00:01:11,118 --> 00:01:14,759
go before we get started just a quick
31
00:01:13,438 --> 00:01:16,839
note to show you a couple of things that
32
00:01:14,759 --> 00:01:18,280
you're going to need to get I'm assuming
33
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,240
you've already got your fire stick what
34
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,040
you need now is the OTG cable this is a
35
00:01:21,239 --> 00:01:25,239
cable that plugs into where your power
36
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:28,040
normally plugs into the fire stick but
37
00:01:25,239 --> 00:01:30,158
it has a connection for a USB drive that
38
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,439
you need to get a USB thumb drive I'll
39
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:34,079
put a link in the description for both
40
00:01:31,438 --> 00:01:36,000
of these things and then it also has
41
00:01:34,078 --> 00:01:38,359
this other y connection here that you
42
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,560
can plug the power cable into so that's
43
00:01:38,359 --> 00:01:43,599
how you would connect this uh to get the
44
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,879
USB storage installed so you can add
45
00:01:43,599 --> 00:01:47,118
apps to your fire stick in this video
46
00:01:45,879 --> 00:01:49,959
I'm going to show you how to do this on
47
00:01:47,118 --> 00:01:51,718
the 4K Max second generation but as I
48
00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:54,879
said earlier this will work on all of
49
00:01:51,718 --> 00:01:56,239
the firos 7 or eight devices the easy to
50
00:01:54,879 --> 00:01:58,199
follow steps I'm going to show you in
51
00:01:56,239 --> 00:02:00,599
today's video will not work on the older
52
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:03,039
4K fire stick with with the fire OS
53
00:02:00,599 --> 00:02:04,759
version 6 adding system storage to those
54
00:02:03,039 --> 00:02:07,718
older devices just isn't worth the
55
00:02:04,759 --> 00:02:09,239
hassle trust me so let's get started all
56
00:02:07,718 --> 00:02:11,799
right so before we get started I do want
57
00:02:09,239 --> 00:02:15,439
to make sure that my Amazon fir stick 4K
58
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:17,319
Max second generation is up to date
59
00:02:15,439 --> 00:02:21,318
first we can go into about and you can
60
00:02:17,318 --> 00:02:24,199
see that excuse me this is the 4K Max
61
00:02:21,318 --> 00:02:27,439
second gen and if you go down to check
62
00:02:24,199 --> 00:02:30,598
for updates you can do that and it does
63
00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:33,359
say that my Fire TV is up to date so now
64
00:02:30,598 --> 00:02:34,759
let's go back to the home button we're
65
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:38,239
assuming now that you've already
66
00:02:34,759 --> 00:02:41,799
connected the uh fire stick with the OTG
67
00:02:38,239 --> 00:02:45,319
cable now we can take our our USB drive
68
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:48,400
and just plug it right into
69
00:02:45,318 --> 00:02:51,158
the port on the OTG
70
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,000
cable and Watch What Happens it'll come
71
00:02:51,158 --> 00:02:54,799
up with this message that says your USB
72
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,199
device is using an unsupported file
73
00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:00,560
system and so what you want to do here
74
00:02:57,199 --> 00:03:03,000
if we want to add uh device storage for
75
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,959
installing apps on we have to go over to
76
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,759
where it says device storage and click
77
00:03:04,959 --> 00:03:10,598
on
78
00:03:06,759 --> 00:03:13,840
that are you sure say
79
00:03:10,598 --> 00:03:15,639
yes so this will take some time uh to
80
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,598
format but when it gets done it'll let
81
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:20,199
you know 12 seconds later all right so
82
00:03:18,598 --> 00:03:22,119
it says formatting complete your USB
83
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:24,679
drive has been formatted you can now use
84
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:28,560
this USB drive to transfer data to
85
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:31,799
Amazon fir stick 4K Max click okay and
86
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:35,239
now if we go over to the Gear
87
00:03:31,799 --> 00:03:38,239
again and go down to my Fire
88
00:03:35,239 --> 00:03:41,200
TV and you go to USB drive it'll tell
89
00:03:38,239 --> 00:03:45,039
you now that you have 59 and change
90
00:03:41,199 --> 00:03:48,399
gigabytes available out of 59 and change
91
00:03:45,039 --> 00:03:50,719
again this is a 64 gig SanDisk Ultra USB
92
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,158
3.0 drive I'll put a link in the
93
00:03:50,719 --> 00:03:54,400
description if you want to get this
94
00:03:52,158 --> 00:03:56,399
exact one that I'm using here in this
95
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,680
demonstration so now that that's done
96
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,680
you can go ahead and click the home
97
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,120
button
98
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,519
okay so now that we have the USB
99
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,400
installed for device storage which means
100
00:04:04,519 --> 00:04:09,640
we can install apps on it we need to
101
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,519
have the explore File Explorer app that
102
00:04:09,639 --> 00:04:14,039
is available in the Amazon app store you
103
00:04:11,519 --> 00:04:15,560
can search for it by name you can just
104
00:04:14,039 --> 00:04:18,439
type in
105
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:22,240
explore or you can use the voice
106
00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:23,680
button but you'll see it show up here so
107
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,759
you can get it there or you can get it
108
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,360
at the cord cutters Li downloads page
109
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:30,840
which is the downloader shortcut code
110
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,919
61187 but just as easy to get from the
111
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,758
Amazon App Store so I'll assume that
112
00:04:32,918 --> 00:04:36,319
you've installed explore let's open it
113
00:04:34,759 --> 00:04:38,400
up for the first
114
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:40,719
time first time you do you're going to
115
00:04:38,399 --> 00:04:42,599
get a message that says that it needs to
116
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,400
access photos media and files on your
117
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,759
device of course that is required to do
118
00:04:45,399 --> 00:04:50,439
this so click allow what we're going to
119
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:51,960
do here on the right side of the screen
120
00:04:50,439 --> 00:04:54,719
we're going to go to where it says
121
00:04:51,959 --> 00:04:56,198
internal storage and we're going to just
122
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,800
select the
123
00:04:56,199 --> 00:05:01,080
downloader folder we're not going to do
124
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,960
anything in there quite yet now let's
125
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:06,198
move over to the left side of the
126
00:05:02,959 --> 00:05:09,079
screen and go into where it says app
127
00:05:06,199 --> 00:05:10,720
manager and then installed this is going
128
00:05:09,079 --> 00:05:13,240
to show you all of the installed
129
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:16,000
applications that you have on the fire
130
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:19,360
stick here I'm going to show you how to
131
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:22,120
move for example the mellin TV app um a
132
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:25,360
new app that I just installed recently
133
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,600
and so long press the select button and
134
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:30,400
you'll
135
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:33,160
see It'll say copy
136
00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:34,758
click on that now this is the only time
137
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:37,840
you're going to want to check this box
138
00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:39,520
where it says move mode so what this is
139
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,959
going to do it's going to uninstall
140
00:05:39,519 --> 00:05:43,879
mellin TV from the fire stick and it's
141
00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:45,799
going to move it to that downloader
142
00:05:43,879 --> 00:05:47,159
folder uh that we have selected on the
143
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,400
right side of the screen so go ahead and
144
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:52,000
click okay on
145
00:05:49,399 --> 00:05:53,638
that it's going to prompt you that to
146
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,959
make sure that you want to uninstall
147
00:05:53,639 --> 00:05:56,960
this app and you say
148
00:05:58,478 --> 00:06:04,399
okay so that's it so now mellin is no
149
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,319
longer on the fire stick but as you can
150
00:06:04,399 --> 00:06:09,120
see it's over here on the right side of
151
00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:12,400
the screen in that downloader folder so
152
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,399
now let's go ahead and click on
153
00:06:13,038 --> 00:06:16,439
that and
154
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:25,240
install so just by having this USB drive
155
00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:27,199
installed and set up for system storage
156
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,160
all apps that can be installed on that
157
00:06:27,199 --> 00:06:32,120
USB will be installed on that USB some
158
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,800
can't some do it's a bit of trial and
159
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,879
error but let's see if this mellan TV
160
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,918
does what I think it's going to do so
161
00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:40,918
click done after the app is
162
00:06:38,918 --> 00:06:42,799
installed and now you can actually go
163
00:06:40,918 --> 00:06:44,680
down to where it says mellan TV in the
164
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,439
downloader folder and you can remove it
165
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:49,240
from there so long press that and then
166
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:51,759
press delete because we no longer need
167
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:54,000
that installation file on the
168
00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:58,400
device and click
169
00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:00,120
okay so now let's go to the home button
170
00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:02,239
and
171
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,519
if you go over to the apps button you
172
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,360
will see at the bottom of the list we
173
00:07:04,519 --> 00:07:10,120
have melant TV
174
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:14,080
there let's quickly open it up and see
175
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:15,519
if it runs sure enough it does click the
176
00:07:14,079 --> 00:07:18,318
home button one more time I want to show
177
00:07:15,519 --> 00:07:20,439
you one more thing to verify that it is
178
00:07:18,319 --> 00:07:23,800
and hopefully installed in the right
179
00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:25,839
spot so we go over to the Gear move down
180
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:28,319
to
181
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:31,598
Applications go into manage installed
182
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:34,280
applications now if you scroll down to
183
00:07:31,598 --> 00:07:36,478
mellan TV you will see this little USB
184
00:07:34,279 --> 00:07:39,799
symbol there that shows you that it is
185
00:07:36,478 --> 00:07:42,439
installed on the USB uh
186
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:45,639
drive we can back up a
187
00:07:42,439 --> 00:07:49,240
step and for ver further verification we
188
00:07:45,639 --> 00:07:50,800
go into my Fire TV go into USB drive and
189
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:55,360
now as you can see it has a little bit
190
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:57,598
less than that 5932 GB available now
191
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,759
it's that that difference between those
192
00:07:57,598 --> 00:08:02,519
two numbers is the size of that mellan
193
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:04,199
app and that's all there is to it so
194
00:08:02,519 --> 00:08:06,478
once again I do want to be clear some
195
00:08:04,199 --> 00:08:09,400
apps can be installed on system storage
196
00:08:06,478 --> 00:08:11,598
on the USB some can't so it is a matter
197
00:08:09,399 --> 00:08:13,478
of you know trial and error I should
198
00:08:11,598 --> 00:08:15,959
also say that some apps you don't want
199
00:08:13,478 --> 00:08:19,519
to install on here so for example like
200
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:22,198
the Cody uh media player or IP vanish
201
00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:23,839
some of those very high system resource
202
00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:25,840
dependent apps you don't really want to
203
00:08:23,839 --> 00:08:28,119
install on the USB storage it'll slow it
204
00:08:25,839 --> 00:08:31,119
down and could give you some issues so
205
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:33,320
for some of the high processor intensive
206
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,158
um applications you may want to keep
207
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,399
that on the internal system storage and
208
00:08:35,158 --> 00:08:39,360
not the USB now you might ask me how you
209
00:08:37,399 --> 00:08:41,759
do that well after you've installed this
210
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,200
external storage as I said earlier all
211
00:08:41,759 --> 00:08:45,278
apps that can be installed on that
212
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,120
external USB storage will be so in the
213
00:08:45,278 --> 00:08:50,919
future if you want to install an app on
214
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:53,399
the internal um device storage not the
215
00:08:50,919 --> 00:08:55,838
USB you will want to shut down the
216
00:08:53,399 --> 00:08:58,600
device temporarily disconnect the USB
217
00:08:55,839 --> 00:09:00,760
drive power it back up install that app
218
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,839
it'll install on the internal system
219
00:09:00,759 --> 00:09:05,439
storage and then you can shut it down
220
00:09:02,839 --> 00:09:07,560
again plug the USB back in and there you
221
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,079
go you'll be back where you were now
222
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,919
there is one thing I wanted to point out
223
00:09:09,078 --> 00:09:12,559
just in case it wasn't really clear the
224
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:14,759
procedure that we just did was we
225
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,479
basically uninstalled the app and all of
226
00:09:14,759 --> 00:09:19,679
its data from its existing place on the
227
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,440
internal system storage and we reinstall
228
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:24,639
that app on the USB system storage
229
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,920
therefore any data any add-ons any
230
00:09:24,639 --> 00:09:29,278
extensions anything like that will be
231
00:09:26,919 --> 00:09:32,399
gone and you'll have to redo that there
232
00:09:29,278 --> 00:09:34,879
is no easy way to move an app from place
233
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:37,159
to place and keep all of that data
234
00:09:34,879 --> 00:09:38,838
intact I know that was a lot so if you
235
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:40,759
managed to stick with me until this
236
00:09:38,839 --> 00:09:42,680
point congratulations hopefully you've
237
00:09:40,759 --> 00:09:44,519
been successful if you had any questions
238
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,439
