Root the phone boot to recovery mounts and storage format cache system data and preload .

Try formatting it with MiniTool Partition Wizard Home edition... please backup the data first and PLEASE PAY ATTENTION which disk you'll be formatting... If you choose the wrong directory, your PC harddisk will be formatted instead of your extSdCard...

True, although by default, the cards are exFAT if formatted in the phone. We really need more info from the OP.
Also, there is a possibility the card is fake (if it is not formatted to FAT32)...
Anyway, first things first, format the card in the phone to ensure it is exFAT
Think you guys for replaying to my post teally didn't expect that many members will answer so, thanx again
So I'll explain te problem with more details
First i put my sd card in a card reader then format it to exfat then i drag my vedio into the sd card (all vedio supprted by s3) i play all videos through my pc ( work perfectly) and pushed the sd card into my s3 and here the problem began .
Some of the vedios didn't work in the phone (currepted) and after return the sd card into card reader to see if the vedios work in the pc now the same vedio currepted in my s3 are currepted in the pc
And I'm ready for more info

I think you should back up data in your microSD card to computer (throught SD reader) and try to format microsd card
hmmm got no problem when sd card is inserted in SD READER, everything is normal..

There is some custom roms that have strange behaviors with sdcard, But the stock is not very normal to have problems.
Try back up data in your microSD, and format, and scan your sd card

cant format my sd card both in my device and in PC
First of all I am sorry moderators if this problem has already been posted.. I tried searching for it and found some solutions that didn't work for me..
I have recently bought a new I9300 and I have a Sandisk 32gb External SD card that I would like to use with it. The card is successfully detected by the mobile but I am unable to copy files to the external SD card.. I have tried formatting the card via CWM via computer card reader both in FAT32 and EXFAT format but none of them worked..
16gb is not enough when you want to try different ROMS.. I hope someone has already solved the problem and point me to the right direction.
Thanks in Advance.
Solution:
So after a lot of search I found that many people have this issue regardinh external SD card in Galaxy S3..This is what solved my problem.. may be it would help you too..
I have 32gb Sandisk Card that apparantly seemed out of order because both S3 and laptop were unable to copy files in it.. I was using the sc card jacket that came with the card itself... .
so instead of just returning it to the sales person via mail I personally visit his office to abuse him..
as it is 1hour drive from here..
but when he chekd the card it worked just fine in there.. and I was like "this is not the same card you are using another one"
Anyway the card reader he used was 3.0.. I am sure many people know this but it seemed to work for me.. i bought the same card reader Lexar usb 3.0 card reader and the same card is working just fine.. playing all the files in the cell phone as well..
Still one issue left and that is I cant copy files within the cell phone via root explorer it says "operation failed due to low memory".. I believe I have to remove .nomedia file that is in there if viewed in the explorer but cant delete it may be permission issues.. anyone have any idea?
Let me know of this helped?

Hey guys
Recently I'm having a strange problem with my sd card
I noticed that even when I was deleting files, they used to come back so I decided to format my sd card
If I mount it as usb storage from the computer, the format works but as soon as I reboot, all the files reappear and the card is formatted back to exfat.
If I use the adapter it tells me that the storage is write protected
Please please someone help me
Thanks in advance
If this is helpful:- I recently updated my phone from XXUGMJ9 to XXUGMK6
Download the sd format tool and wipe the card again, if still the same then throw it away.
