After connecting the USB cable to the two devices, log into the Nexus and use the pull-down screen on the Nexus to put the device into PTP mode. If needed, unplug the USB cable, wait a few seconds, and plug it back in again. A Nautilus screen will pop up and allow you to drag-and-drop files. You will only be able to move files from/to the Nexus in a couple of directories, but you can use a file manager app on the Nexus to get around this. Works for me.... -- KevinO
