Answer» You might remember me for having a Polaroid 7 inch tablet. Well, last WEEK it died. I mean I couldn't turn it on and everytime I'd try to charge it, it would get very warm.
I just bought a 14 inch HP Laptop. My question is that I bookmarked a lot of stuff on the tablet. Is there anyway I can retrieve that stuff off my tablet and onto my laptop?The battery for the tablet is toast and likely has a shorted cell which is causing the heat up.
A battery replacement would allow for you to get the polaroid tablet to work again BUT these tablets dont generally have readily available replacement parts.
One idea is to open it and disconnect the battery and see if you can get it to boot off of the wall adapter or USB power connection connected to a power source. If the battery is not REQUIRED to boot it then it can run direct off the wall adapter or usb cable is its that type of microusb port etc.
Once if your able to boot the tablet then I would save info to a MICROSD card and then transfer the data that way or if you have the google drive app installed use cloud storage as a transfer means.
I have opened devices like this and its a royal pain. It required guitar picks and pry tools to open a kindle for example. The good thing is that the pry tool set was like $7 at newegg. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA6RP39M6074&cm_re=pry_tool-_-9SIA6RP39M6074-_-ProductI'm an IDIOT. Can you dumb this down a bit?this may get you started; https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Polaroid_Tablet but you haven't mentioned your make/model.
then you have to ask yourself, how many bookmarks are we talking about and is the effort worth it?What browser were you using on the old tablet? Some browsers have the ability to sync bookmarks between computers. It's a long shot but, if you USED a browser that had you create an account, you may be able to login to that account from another device using the same browser and sync your bookmarks to the new device.I think it was internet explorer. And as far as the bookmarks, there was a lot of them. Can somebody help me?Either you or someone else needs to disconnect the internal battery and see if it can be powered direct from its power jack without battery present. If not able to do this then I'd suggest bringing it to a computer repair shop which might support tablets to have them try this.and we still don't know the make/model. it may help others help you!I was actually able to import my bookmarks by signing into my google account because when I sign to my google account on my laptop, I see the bookmarks from my tablet.Cool ... Congrats in getting them. Account sync for the win
