Exclamation **How to view/ delete local files?**

I am having a heck of a time trying to individually view and delete video/ picture files I downloaded. I do not know if they download to the SD Card of if they go locally to the phone. In any case, I've spent much time and can't figure it out.

I deleted the download history but when I dock the phone in the multimedia station, and play the slide show, the images are still part of the slide show.

Any help in deleting downloads off of phone and/ or SD Card would be very much appreciated.

Kind Regards!

Check the download folder...

Some apps..like Handcent have their own download folders

Backnblack,

Thanks for the response, however removing apps isn't the issue for me. It's the removal Images and Videos downloaded straight from the browser. Just cant seem to figure it out.

The root directory of the SD card? Your file manager app should allow you to go up the directory tree. Or do you mean something else?
