Question
where exactly is the slot for the SD card to go into the computer
A phone microSD card will not fit directly into a computer. You have to put it into the holder that will make it appear like a Mini SD card and then it will fit into the slot of a computer. A microSD card typically (but not always) comes with the holder that it fits into to make it a Mini SD card. However, even if you have the holder and put that into your computer, you still won't be able to get the information off of the card because the way the phone writes to the card is not in the same language that your computer can interpret. You need to use a USB cable to plug your phone into your computer and the appropriate software in order to read what is on the phone and card. I hope this helps. Thanks. DebiN
