Having this issue with music and pictures specifically. I can access the music through my phone's music player but if I connect my phone to my computer and try to view the files through my computer a lot of the albums don't show up. I ha e the same problem with pictures that are saved to my sd card. If I want get to a pic off my sd card the only way I've been able to do it is by emailing them to myself.
Any suggestions?

I think you should put all your files on the computer and then format the SD card. and then try it again with your phone. If it then still not works it's a phone problem and not a SD card problem
Thank me if I helped you!

Hey Guys,
I am running running AOKP CM10 Nightlies on my HTC One V right now. I am running the latest sep-30 version with Jellyboot4.img. The ROM is not recognizing my SD card which makes life a bit hard. I have not read anyone else having this problem in the forums and can't post there yet because I have just signed up.
Anyone run into this problem before? Is it the ROM or is it my phone. Any work arounds? I maybe new to the forums but I have done my fair share of rooting and such and know my way around.
Advice is appreciated.
Thanks
Yeah! Me too!
I'm having the same problem, I think;
installed the CM10 CDMA Rom, used the boot.img from jellyboot5.
had the SDcard out (old 16gb from my Optimus V), tried to run Google Earth and it told me it couldn't do it without an SDCard. Put the card back in, ran GE again and it booted fine; i even saw, in Storage, that it was mounted, gave a correct number for free space/capacity. Got a 32GB micro SDHC today, shoved it in the thing--replaced the 16GB--and when i tried to download something from the web in Chrome it told me it couldn't do it without an SD card. Storage reported its presence, its empty presence. Ran something else that needed an SD Card, it reported the card's absence. Still recognized in Storage, was able to USB it and look at it from my laptop; these apps still can't acknowledge it.
Not sure why. Both cards do this.
Anybody got any idea?

Alright;
Tried formatting the card weird, waiting for the error and to reformat on the One V. just kept unmounting/mounting. Formatted it FAT32 on the PC, threw it back in.
the SDcard is visible to dropbox (for exporting) and ES File Explorer (for examining).
the SDcard is NOT visible to Chrome (for downloading) or Swiftkey's installer (for dictionary storage).
Dunno about music or gallery photos, other common SDcard stuff. Guess I'll try that next.
Is the only way through Samsung Kies? Whenever I try to drag and drop music on my SD Card it doesn't allow me to do when it is normally connected via USB. I would use Samsung Kies but I don't like the syncing and interface in general. With my Vibrant I was able to freely drag and drop music without any problems. Is there anyway to that on the S III? Thanks!
that's weird, I could easily drag and drop with no problems
Really? Hmm..I can drag it to the internal space, but for some reason it won't let me drag it onto my SD Card. It worked perfectly fine on my Vibrant though.
You can always use FTPServer app to connect your computer to your phone and transfer music that way.
I used windows explorer... make sure your phone isn't locked? (Screen on)
Use a SD card adapter. Or, you can try the app EasyUMS which allows your SD card to run as USB Mass Storage for quick transferring instead of the regular MTP connection.

Yeah I guess the SD Card Adapter is the best way to access my external storage. Anyone know how to make it work on internal storage though like editing files? It won't let me edit the like the properties of my music, lol.
You stock or custom rom?

usb? connecting an android to a pc with physical cables? *sputter
in the immortal words of Scotty in IV, "a keyboard! how quaint"
use networking man!
on the pc ... "share" the drives/folders you usually access
download an app like ES File Explorer on your phone
access your pc files over your wifi in ES file explorer LAN section .. edit to login as if logging into your windoze
I am using the 5GHz band of My WiFi router.. which means I am transferring files between My pc and phone at speeds between 80-150Mbps :good:

I use poweramp and only set up the one folder on my external card.
What exactly happens when you try to drag-and-drop?
I am also using the stock ROM and it works for me, just tried it again to make sure. Do you have other things on the external card already ? Could the format be a possible issue ?
I have recently installed Xperia Ultimate HD 3.0.2 with Rush kernal V10 and everything was working fine, taking pictures, playing music etc. I have also deleted some software using Titainum to remove the dead weight. And recently i took some pictures but it says cannot save and i cant view thenm in the quick view on the camera software, but it does save them when i looking the gallery. If i try to video something is says 2 mins. at the bottom that suggests it cant recognise the SD card even though it is inserted and is trying to save on the internal memory. Also when i screen catpure is takes it and then says it cant be saved but again when i look in the folder in my gallery it is there. So these apps obviously cant recognise the sd card to save to it, for some reason. the Walkman app when i open it just says no music in the library...suggesting no SD card again! I can browse the SD card in File Manager, so the phone knows the SD card is there, just some of the apps dont realsie it is there, the apps on the sd card are all working fine. im not sure if i am missing someting or maybe i accidently delted somethiing important.
HELP!

Hello everyone,
I currently have a 10.5 stock rom rooted with some debloating not much taken out. I've been having a problem with my 64 GB SD card to the point where it is virtually unusable. When I save things to the SD card, some strange things begins to happen. After a while the files that were added would simply disappear almost as if they have never been there to begin with. (This includes folders that were made within the SD Card) Or they would work for a while and just simply stop working. When I add music (MP3 or which ever format) the sound would be speed up making it unpleasant to listen to. This happens if I add new files to the SD card from the tablet or directly to the SD card with a computer through a USB cable. I am wondering, has anyone else experienced these issues? Is it the card itself or simply the tablet? I have done some research and I have not found anyone else having this issue in this website or elsewhere. Can you please help me?
Thanks ahead of time!

I am surprised you have not found any related posts as there are many about the SD slot on the Tab S. My 10.5 has similar problems, I have a 32 Gig card that at times will just not be readable by the tablet. I keep all my music on there and at least once a week when I fire up my music player it says it can't play the file. For me a reboot of the tablet fixes it for a few days but it is still an annoying issue. I am hoping the Lollipop update will help fix some of these SD card slot issue. I tried formatting my card in the tablet and that did seem to help some but I still have intermittent problems with the SD slot on my Tab S 10.5. Oh and I tried the card in other tablets and my phone and it never has an issue so I don't think it is the card.

I have not experienced issues with the sound speeding up, and are you saying the files actually are no longer on the card even it you view the card on your PC? Are you always connected to the PC with the card in the tablet? I assume if you pull the card in read it on your PC not in the tablet that all your data is still there?

Yeah I'm surprised too maybe it's our tablets? To tell you the truth the files just the files would simply dissappear after a while. Almost as if it never existed to begin with. I have some files there sure, but not nearly what I want. What makes it even stranger if I move a file from the tab to the SD card it will stop working. If I move it back to the tab itself it still longer works. It's the strangest thing I've seen.
