Homebrew Question Copying Nintendo folder to new sd card.

[Ericthegreat]

Finally got a bigger sd card, I wanna go fat32 so I can have homebrew/games on the same sd, strangely two of my sd card readers broke lol, onme at least worked the other day, so I only have one usb sd card reader, then I gotta use my wifes mac to read the other sd card, seems I cant just copy/paste says "Nintendo is larger then 4gb", from what ive read the actual files that are installed (I havnt gone through all of them maybe there is one over 4gb), I should be able to just copy/paste my Nintendo folder, is there a homebrew to split/transfer files over(no i dont keep all of my nsps)? Or is this just a weird osx issue I dont understand?

If file in Nintendo folder is bigger than 4GB, then it's your fault by putting file there, because Switch is splitting all their files if are bigger than 4 GB.
So this file is not crucial to copying.

If there's a file that's over 4GB, you won't copy that to a FAT32 card.

You sure this isn't a osx issue? I find it strange its almost acting like the folder is one file.

Maybe OSX it's treating it like archive for some reason? Try to copy it with nxmtp and Android File Transfer.

Right now im trying to copy it using memloader, at least on windows its transfering.

Its working okay on windows so far, I will see I do see what you say with some files having a 00 of 3.99 gb followed by the rest in a 01 file.

I have no issues copying the Nintendo folder regardless of the file size of certain games.

yeah it should be fine as long as none of the files are over 4gb
