Connect via usb, drag down notification bar, click usb notification, then your phone should show up as a drive on your computer you can create a folder for your pictures or, you should have a folder called DCIM which is where pictures taken with your phone will go. For ringtones, find or create a media folder, inside of which should be folders named ringtones, notifications, alarms, and wallpapers and place items accordingly. It may take a reboot for things to show up, but then you should be able to set them as normal.

Well I doubt that yer post title is totally accurate, but let's not worry about that right now....:smileyvery-happy:

 

It would probably be best to download your pics and ringtones on a computer from the old card (with the help of a card reader or with the old card in your Droid X, if it's compatible), then connect  (or re-connect, as the case may be) the Droid X to your computer and upload them to the new SD card.

 

I'd also install the app RingDroid, which helps to make tones into ringtones on the X. Just make sure that the old ringtones are mp3. RongDroid will roll over and play dead at the sight of Ogg, WMA, or AAC files (at least on my X).
