I also have e988 and all my music is on my SD card and the stock player sees all of it. Check whether your SD card is properly detected by the system and whether you have .nomedia in those folders.

For newbies, try copying all your data card files on your computer, format your memory card in your phone and then put it back.
Check for .nomedia though

Hi,
Thanks for the inputs.music video files were detected earlier from the same sd card.whatever that is detected is still showing up.New folders are not..nomedia is not there.

Hi,
Guess it's not detected because es file explorer was used to transfer to sd card.now it's getting detected when the process is repeated using stock file explorer

Faulty memory card maybe.
Format your memory card and check if you still have problems with your apps.
In which way are they damaged?

That's an interesting issue!
Try this:
1. Move all the apps back to your internal memory.
2. Delete off the .android_secure folder.
3. Copy your important stuff back to the computer.
4. Format the memory card from your phone (not from your PC).
5. Reboot the phone.
6. Copy back all the stuff and move the apps back to memory card.
See whether it helps.

It looks like there is a serious problem with your phone handling the SD Card. I can't suspect the phone, but only your SD Card.
Try with a different SD Card. By the way, is this card came with the phone? If yes, try to get a replacement in the service center.
And, you are welcome to press the "Thanks" button anytime you like .
yeah i will try that.thanks mate.

Damn it my sd or my phone.
The same problem is back again. I wonder is it my phone or sd. Using new sd, and reflash with fresh rooted stock room.
Now it keep on damaging file after file.
Just like the 1st time i got my arc.
Seems like no one elses experiencing the same problem.

Hi everyone
I have a problem with my Sd card not properly being seen by any Rom at the moment. I noticed it when I flashed the new virtuous sense 4 Rom, as I couldn't view any of my pictures in the gallery and also no music can be found in any music app.
I decided to return to my backed up Rom which was runny suprise and the same problem occurred even though I had no issues before back up. I also tried a couple of others too.
I always full wipe between roms and just wondered why this has happened, have I pressed something in recovery or is my Sd card faulty? I can view my old photos by using my file explorer and selecting view with gallery and also listen to music this way also by using the native music player.
Any advice would be handy before I buy a new Sd card and start all over again.
In settings/storage it still tells me how much space I have on the Sd card so I'm not sure what's happend.
Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

I posted a solution for this in another thread, it seems that this is a repeated question.
For those of you that encounter problems of having trouble finding your gallery and music, but yet those files are still in you SD card
Follow instructions below:
1. Plug your phone to your PC
2. Use the search function on your PC and search your SD card for ".nomedia"
3. Delete all
4. Reboot your phone
TADA!!!
Hi
Thanks for the info but didn't help. I searched and deleted all .nomedia files then reboot but no luck

Heck, I don't know. Did you make a backup of your whole sd card, format it, then transfer everything back?
Are there any .nomedia files in the sd card?

I would say that this is problem with pc. What system are you using? Do you have "show hidden files" option on (just google it for your system if you don't know how to turn it on)? Is there "." at the begining of the file like ".xxxx.yyy"?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Hmm. It seems that the only files that can be viewed on the external SD card on PC is the files I put on their from the PC. The files I downloaded on my phone are not being shown. Hidden files are shown on windows and it still cannot see them. The files are just zips apks and images, I don't understand why they are not showing up. tried on another computer, same result. Hmm.

Unmount and remount sdcard in the storage settings. The PC drivers are really pretty crappy. I've seen it happen quite frequently.

Maybe the SD card isn't propely mounted? Did you tried removing it and connecting to a PC? If it recognizes and the file is there, you could try Recuva for Windows,,,

I recently had to factory restore my M8 due to it constantly rebooting. After my factory restore, I can no longer move files (pictures and videos) to the external SD card. I had the ability to do that prior. I also lost the ability to transfer files from my internal SD to my computer. Can anyone help? . The transfers just hang and then fail. I am stock. No root. I should also note that I tried reformatting the SD card. I moved all the pictures and videos to the internal storage so I wouldn't lose them and could not move them back after reformatting.
You can only do it with root

Anyone?
Have you tried to move files to another computer?
Give more information. How are you trying to move files to your externalSD? Using your computer or using a file explorer.
You shouldn't be able to write files to your external Sd because of Kitkat's new permissions.
There is a workaround if you have root
