I just formated my SD card and have all my photos backed up on my PC
the files have the correct date attributte, but when I copy them back to the SD card, all files have the current date (today)
I've tried creating a .zip file with the correct files and unzip directly on the phone but no success...
What am I missing?

Have you tried doing all your copying on a PC? I mean, taking your 8GB to a PC... copying files to a temp folder. Putting the 32GB card into the PC and copying all your files to the new card. I have always done this and I had no issues with folders not copying properly.

Like the pserson above me said, have you tried on the PC? Also when you do copy it over on PC make sure that you have all administrative rights on your computer so it can go through.
I know this is a tad old, but A nandroid backup such as done by 4EXT Recovery or even ClockworkMod should backup the .android_secure folder/partition/etc (in 4EXT Recovery when you do a backup, it saves the boot, system, data, cache, sd-ext/sd-ext2 into a backup which can be then be copied over to a new card after you partition it how you want, then run the restore process).
Likewise you could probably tarball it via adb shell in order to transfer it across file systems that do not support linux permissions and ownership flags.
I've got a few films on my phone which play fine. But some won't show up on the pc as being on my phones sd card when I look at the folder. From what I can see the file types are the same as the ones that do show up.
I also have the problem that when I go to delete some files (some. Video some apk) they don't delete. It doesn't say there was a problem deleting them and the file size is 0 but the file name still shows. So they do not show up on pc do I delete them in the phone but they still show.
Hope this makes sense
Anyone?
Double post.
Don't know this could help
I have ever got this experience. I accidentally renamed some file(data) in phone Sd like original file name is "xxxx" to " .xxxx" after renamed I couldn't see that file from phone Sd even via PC(when usb connected) but I knew it still in Sd because it took lot of my internal Sd Space. I tried install root explorer app(your phone need rooted) and got into sd again now I could see that file then I could delete it successfully.
ive just tried to put a music track in a folder thats in my music folder in ext sd but its only showing a handfull of the folders.
so say i try to make a new folder and name it the same as the one im trying to put it in e.g "live" the folder wont rename . but i can rename it with a new name.
this is really winding me up
just noticed none of the things show up if i look vie kies either
a workable solution.....connect your SD to your PC via USB or SD slot....copy all SD content onto the PC....format the SD.....move it back to the phone....connect the phone to the PC via USB......move back the content to the SD
unmounted my sd , put it in my card reader , but my card reader must be faulty . put the sd back in the phone and all the files are showing up again lol
thanks for your help, i should have thought of that really
I am posting here 'cause I don't have enough post for the development sections. Tried to root my 4gLTE using RegawMOD EVO 4G LTE Rooter, but if failed because I had a new LTE and Best Buy upgraded me to OTA 1.22.651.3. Although the root failed, TWRP recovery was flashed, and I read that all I have do do is use it to flash SuperSU.zip and I'm done. I copied SuperSU.zip to the root of my SD card, boot into recovery, but I don't see ANY files, just folders.
When I boot into normal system operations and use any file manager - Astro, ES, etc - I still only see folders but no files (folders show as empty). Yet my gallery is full of the pics that are on my SD card, and when I mount the phone as a drive on my PC I see all of the files.
I tried copying all files to my PC, formating my SD card on the phone, and copying back but still no files. Could be my SD card (32GB Patriot) and this phone. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
You will need to mount it in TWRP. It will show your sd card as empty until then. On the new 2.2.1, I think that it just gives you the option to switch between internal and external sd within the section to flash new zips.

Dooooh!!
That did it. Big THANKS!!!
I've recently installed 4.2.2 on my Xperia Z (build number 10.3.A.0.423) stock with full root and dual recovery using NUT's instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2337433. Everything went fine and I'd been using it a few days until today when I noticed all the files/folders on my internal sd had been moved from 'emulated/0' to 'emulated/0/0', and a whole new set of folders had been created in 'emulated/0'. I decided to move all files and folders from /0/0 to /0 as this was where all new files were being stored since I installed the new firmware. Everything was still ok at this point. I then connected my phone to my Windows laptop and noticed that the folder 'sdcard/storage' was showing as literally empty in the file explorer. All my other files were visible in the /0 folder so I deleted the /storage folder (it was showing as empty). I then noticed that the location of the files on my phone did not correspond with where they were showing in Windows explorer (When I added a test file on my phone to 'emulated' it appeared in 'sdcard/0/legacy' (or something similar) in Windows - basically a right mess!). I then noticed I'd cleared my internal SD card completely, so rebooted to CWM to restore my backup from a few days ago. The backup should have been on the EXTERNAL SD but CWM was saying no backup found. So I then rebooted and noticed that both INTERNAL and EXTERNAL SD's were completely wiped, other than a few essential files that Android had added to the Internal. I talking GB's of photos, music, videos etc.
I know I'm not going to them all back but I just want to know what happened so I never do it again. Why did the file locations not correspond with Windows? Why did an 'empty' folder turn out to be the one with everything in? And why was my external SD (which held all my personal files!)wiped when at no point did I ever edit anything in this??
Very confused, I'd be grateful if anyone could shed some light on this....
Hello there
Recently I was try compress an image folder with the Huawei stock file manager. That folder has a "." I was added before the compression To keep them secret. For my bad luck I was changed my mind and I stop the compression before it's done.
Now I lost my folder and all of my image's. And the only way to see anything about that folder is by using es file manager but there is no folder anymore only a file with the name of folder and 0 of bytes.
I try to connect my phone to a PC and see the files in my SD card with no luck.
I can't believe that I lost all of my work so simple...
Any ideas was accepted
I was found the solution.
I have to just get out the SD card and put in card reader in my pc and magical the folder is ok. I was create a new folder and I transfer all that files of the original folder. Then I Get back to phone the SD card and woohoo all the files is ok now as before.
