UPDATE: Transferring files to Tablet via USB Cable Looses Original Time & Dates of Files

I have a Samsung Android OS tablet with a SD card that I am unable to
remove ("stuck"). The alternative to putting files on that card is to connect
a USB cable, used for charging the tablet, into my Windows 7 Home Premium
laptop computer. Win7 detects the tablet, but does NOT assign a drive letter
to that device, as it does if I plugged in a SD card..

I can transfer files to my tablet's SD card this way, but their
original time and dates are replaced with the time and date of the
transfer!!!!

One solution for now, I "zip" up the files and transfer the FILE.ZIP
to my tablet's SD card (can't be removed), and use "X-plore", a file
manager, that can open the FILE.ZIP and allow me to view those
files and see their original time and dates.

Hi,

I have learned something of value from my experience (above).

The best solution is to find a way to remove the stuck micro SD
card from this tablet. Note: The SD card plugs into a slot on the
side of the tablet. To remove the SD card, using your finger nail,
you push in the SD card and it should pop out enough for you to
grab it. That's how it "works" on my Wife's tablet.

SOLUTION:

Since there is very little space around the SD card, I used
two sewing needles on each side of the SD card, after I pushed in the SD
card. I was able to pull out the card a little using the needles. Then
I used a fine pair of tweezers to remove the card.
