Hi Louise,

Thank you for your thoughts.

I've learned I need a C to USB-A cable ro adapter to attach the cell to an
older laptop.

I borrowed such a cable and it works flawlessly.

Glad I can reach out to caring fellow librarians as Samsung has proved no
tech help for myself or patrons needing tech help.

Thank you again fir your understanding and kind help.

Charles.

No, it doesn’t relate, but we’re here to help each other, so…

Charles, there are limited number of charging cable types.  Sounds like
yours might be a micro-USB?  You’d just need to get a micro-USB to USB-A
(what your computer has) adapter.  Usually the cell phones come with such
an adapter cable?  Otherwise they’re readily available.

If your old Dell laptop doesn’t have USB-A ports…it’s really old.  You’d
have to find out what those are and find an adapter that translated between.
