I decided to upgrade to 256MB SD card which I formated as my old 64Mb to FAT32.
Using card reader I have copied all files from the old card to my PC harddrive directory and from there to the new 256 SD card and I can see that the files are there.
When I put the 256SD into my XDA1 and when attampting to open the card using file explorer the message is
"Cannot find storage card (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available"
When I insert my old 64 MMC card everything is back to normal and OK.
What am i doing wrong? any clues?
TIA

i have old gene and i use wm6.1 and everything is ok
but suddonly become the sd card unreadable and always ask me to format it

and that massage appare when i put the sd card
(Do you want to format this storage card to make it readable? This will permantly delete any files on the card.
and i select yes
then said
This storage card has been successfully formatted.
but when i go to file explorer
it is not there
by the way my sd card is 2 Gb
Try to format the card on a card reader. If the problem persists, then try another card.
Two possibilities : Either the formatting utility in your rom is not formatting it properly, in that case, format it using a Card Reader as ramerson said, OR The card is probably getting bad due to a bad system area. Its not properly retaining the file system structures created during formatting process and the phone cannot work with this corrupted filessytem.
i tried and use another sd card with deffrent sd card size and i have the same proplem and i use wm6.5 and also the same and wm6.1
I think there must be problem with your phone if it is refusing different cards on different ROMs.
@smb: While some of builds of Wm6.5 have issues with SD card, but such instances are not reported with wm6.1 ?
BTW have you tried to format your card (FAT32) using card reader.
@techmate : Buddy for general use in phone Fat32 is a bad format. It slows down the speed of file access to pathetic levels due to its very small default cluster size of 4096 bytes, or 4 KB. Fat16 is the recommended format for windows mobile, and most other mobile phones.
I have bought a SanDisk Ultra 64 GB microSDXC (Class 10, UHS-I) and put it into my new S3 (16 GB, black):
In "Settings" the Card gets detected and shows its correct size (59GB)
When plugging the SD Card into my Notebook, it's shown as 64 GB device, also
When pluggin the Phone with inserted SD card to the PC via USB, two new drives are shown for the internal and the external space of my phone. They contain different files, but have both the same size (11GB)
Therefore, i am unable to use the 64GB of my external card. I guess it does not get mounted properly. Instead the extSdCard folder seems to be located at the internal space.
Do you need more detailed information for helping me to solve this issue?

/edit: I forgot to mention that after not being able to solve this, i rooted my phone. But nothing changed.

i brought micro sd card for my phone it has phone memory 500 mb sd card 2 gb cant remove it and i buyed 16 gb so i want to install apps on my phone to new 16 gb card so i cant do it when i want to change preferred install location here is only 1st phone storage and 2nd 2gb card so what do to install apps on 16 gb card?
P.S i can delete write files on 16 gb card
Are you saying your phone has 2GB internal memory or a 2GB removable SD card? If it's a removable card, all you need to do is copy all the files to a folder on your computer, put the 16GB card in your phone, format it, then copy everything back from the comp to phone.
If the 2GB memory is internal (noted as 'SD card' by the system in some devices), then by default apps are installed here and not on the external SD card (removable card). There are ways to do it though, but they are phone specific and depend on whether a dev has made such a method work for your phone.

Hello
I've recently bought a SanDisk 4GB SD Card, format it to NTFS, I was able to copy large files like my Need For Speed SD Data, .apk files. Then I've checked it in my phone if it is success. But for some reason, .apk files were not showing up on the list, all I see is the SD Data of my NFS. Please help
I'm sorry about my english grammar by the way. :silly:
