suddenly all my mp3 from micro SD is gone and I cant addno mor...pleas what is hapening here
only the MP3 files? you may accidentally deleted them or the parent folder.
There are some Rules on data loss:
STOP working with the card immediately.
switch on write protection (if you can)
Connect the Card via card-reader to the pc
Try to recover your files with special software, for eg: GetDataBack for FAT
If you have the original files on PC: Just copy it again to the SD Card

I have got a 1GB sandisk mini-sd card. The problem is when I want to copy files of it, like mp3s, videos... (for 400 MB~) from the pc to the card reader.
I put the sd in the ppc and it tells me that it is 100% full ?!?!?!
So I decide to explore it and there are corrupted files everywhere ! I put it in the sd card reader from the pc and corrupted files are everywhere too.
I tested many times to format the sd and try to copy the same quantity of files in, but the problem comes again.
The problem don't comes when I don't insert the sd in the ppc and try to read it in the reader again or when I don't copy so lot of files (50MB for example).
I joined a picture to show you what's the problem.
PLEASE HELP ME !!!
Try a different card reader and reformat the SD card, I had a reader that just couldn't take them for some reason.
HiH

right converted my dvd to a avi file and now got to put onto my memory card, but when i click copy it goes to copy it but when it gets half way it just re starts copying it again? is it cause the file is too big?
also how do i check how much memery space i got left on my memory card?
same problem
They only way I have found to copy mpegs or avi's to the mem card is to skip activesync altogether and use the adapter for my minisd card to plug into my laptop directly ( I have an sd port). If you dont have that you can buy a usb adapter that will do it. I then do a normal file copy to the storage card, place it back in the wizard and it works fine.
If you dont have an adapter for your memory card use wm5torage http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271652
I haven't dl'd any movies yet, but have had similar problems with large files. I have found that if you go to Tools->Options and uncheck Media, then Sync and disconnect and reconnect your device, it should not restart your Sync proccess midway.
After the file is dl'd, just reselect Media, and Voila!
Hope this helps!
I have enabled the Encryption on my PDA and then I have disable it, I couldn't save anything on my micro sd card and I hard reset my PDA. I have backed up my files and try to delete them from sd card and nothing happened. I have connected the micro sd through a card reader on my PC and I tried to format it and I get a message that cannot perform format. I have deleted the files manually from PC and when I connect the card back to device I can see all files on the card as was before.
Can anyone help me format the sd card and use it again from the beginning?
The encryption in WM6 really sucks. It encrypts the files and makes .menc files of them. The problem is that there is no option to store the encryption key, so the files are only usable on the phone that encrypted them. If you want to view the files on another phone or a pc you can't. the same if you put another rom on your phone.
To format the card i used wm5torage and connected the phone as an removable device. Then you can format the card from your pc. There are also various maintenance programs for WM that can use to format the card.
At last there is a manufacturer from sd cards where you can download a low level format program (cant find the program anymore in my ever growing download folder, so can't be more helpfull )

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yup it really does suck.... happened to me once... what i did was (which resolved the problem)... removed the check on the radio button, then added new files to the sd after the encryption is disabled. all my files are back to normal. you shouldnt have formatted your device as the encryption keys will be lost as well...
you can also try pocket mechanic to reformat your card...
I am going to swap my 2gb sd for a 16gb and want to know how to transfer the files correctly. It seems that the files I can see on my PC when mounted via usb, are only a fraction of the files I see via Root Explorer on the phone.
Whats the correct way prepare the new card, and transfer the files?
Thanks
mount the phone. Open the appropriate drive (2 should show). One us the internal for the os. The other is the 2 gig with avatar (sdcard/sd).
Copy to your desktop.
Get the new card with adapter mounted to pc now. Right click and format fat.
power off the phone after properly unmounting.
Swap cards in phone. Mount it again to pc. Move the avatar folder to new sd.
unmount. I would reboot. Make sure avatar works. if it didn't, you did not listen.
Thanks for the info
The way I did it is:
-put the new card in the phone
-format it using the phone (settings, SD Card and phone storage, format SD card)
-put the old sd card with adapter into PC
-mount the phone
-transfer files from old to new
So the only files that need to be transferred are the ones that show up when mounted/viewed on the PC? Are the files that I see on the card via Root Explorer when it is in the phone not needed? Are they just links or something?
Avatar is on the sd card (sdcard/sd)
Sdcard is the internal memory. Do NOT mess with that!
ah, so the sd card is actually the sd directory inside of sdcard...got it, thanks
Is there a way to prevent this? If I try to open any office documents from the external SD card on the S3, it will open it as a separate file in a temporary folder in windows. I am not able to save as back to the SD folder. It will say Read Only. I can not even write to the SD card if I have the file that is in the SD card open. I believe this is the way MTB works, but on my DroidX, I did not have this problem. Is there a solution to this?
