If your computer is able to read SD cards - there is no reason to think it shouldn't be able to read this one. Once the TF card is in the SD adapter... it functions as an SD card.
Of course - i don't know your computer, so only you know if your computer can read SD on the fly.

With regard to the new TF card - you should do these things IN THIS ORDER:

BEFORE YOU USE THE TF CARD IN THE PHONE OR IN YOUR COMPUTER:
1. Power down the phone
2. Insert the new TF card into the phone
3. Power up the phone
4. Goto: Menu -> Phone Info-> Storage Devices
Select the TF card form the list and hit Menu again. Then select "Format"

The phone will format the TF card in a way that you will need in order to properly put media on it from your...

Don't forget to move the lock/unlock switch on the SD adapter to unlock, or the files on your TFlash will be read only.

You have a few inconsistencies in your post. I'm trying to follow the steps that you say, but since there is no such "Motorola->Shared -> MP3" folder in the TF card, it is hard to do so.

Under the "Shared" folder, there are only the options for "audio" and "ringtones" (plus all the other ones for video and pictures, but that's not what I'm referring to right now - we're just talking about adding MP3's).

I cannot get my files to upload to the folders. I have tried to place MP3 files in both "audio" and "ringtones" folders, but only half the files show up. On top of that, when you make a folder labeled "MP3," the same thing happens, some of the files are missing.

From reading other posts, am I to assume that some of the files are n...

Thanks for the information. If you read my post, you would know that I already HAVE the TF card.

My problem is not getting the card (even though I got it for cheaper than that off Amazon.com), I need to figure out why the files are not showing up on the phone!

your phones default memory storage is the phone itself...in order to see the files you put on your TF you must change the storage device to your card.

I have been struggling trying to figure this out. I went thru your steps to play MP3's and although the MP3's appear on TF card, they will not play. Any suggestions? Does it make a difference how MP3 files are downloaded to my computer before transferring to TF card? Also, my MP3's are only audio and not music, if that makes a difference. 😕
