Android devices
Android devices will need to be put into MTP mode. The way this is done changes slightly based on the version of Android running. On more modern versions, slide down the top of the screen once to show notifications. There should be a notification from the Android System indicating something to the effect of "USB debugging connected." Below this notification is a second notification. Tap the second notification, then change the setting from "Charge only" to "USB for file transfer."
