I have been creating playlists, and after the soft reset they disappear or are empty.
When I boot, without SD card in the Galaxy, and I insert the external card, after the multimedia scan of the internal card, the playlists will not be deleted or become empty.
If it is possible to delay the mounting storage?
Thanks

Hello there
Ever since I changed the storage of my emails to the storage card, I have the problem that the device creates a folder called "Storage Card" when I perform a soft reset. The actual storage card is then mounted as "Storage Card 2". This has the effect that not only my email bodies are not saved to the storage card, but also that software installed on the card can't be run. I have to start Resco Explorer, remove the storage card, delete the "Storage Card" folder and insert the storage card.
It seems that the storage card driver isn't loaded until later, when the system already created \Storage Card\Messaging\... folder structure.
Is there any way to have the sd card driver load earlier, or any other solution? thx.
No solution?
I have had the same problem. I have only seem the problem from time to time, havent figured out what triggered it..
Try not to set the PIE temp. file to storage card and email attachment to storage card. Because during reboot the system can't see the SD yet, so it will create a storage card from existing rom, and this will cause your subsequently detected SD to be mounted as storage card2.

Yes, I realize that this is the problem. I'm therefore looking for a solution to either prevent Outlook/ActiveSync from creating those folders, or else tell the system to mount the storage card a bit earlier...
also
setting all the temp/cache dirs for built-in MS Win apps (like Word and PIE) on a storage card is a bad idea, from my experience, as the Universal unmounts the SD cards on power down. this causes many of the built-in Win apps to crash when powered back on, with PIE bringing down your entire phone if it can't find the cache dirs. I don't know about you, but I like my Universal to behave more like a stable phone, and not a Win PC. Installing code on the card also seems to be a bad idea, as this problem also causes apps to crash. setting cache and other volatile information to the storage card for 3rd party apps seems to be ok so far. Maybe because they're not privelaged to being integrated with the OS like built-in Win apps.

Hi there... I have had your same prob... I got rid of it simply disabling the "messages" today plug in, and it worked...
have fun
Few days ago my storage card (mini SD 1Gb) got new name: Storage Card2.
I noticed that after a soft reset (hp ipaq 6965, WM5) a new folder had been created on the hp device, called Storage Card and the actual storage card (with all files) was being designated Storage Card2.
If I delete the new folder and remove and reinsert SD card then it reverts to being storage card. Unfortunately it reverts to storage card2 after every soft reboot.
How to solve above problem ?
Encounter this before too. But some how it does not happen too frequent.
May be you would want to try defragmenting your memory card?
Would a full hard reset solve this?
just hard reset ppc storage card problem will solve

Not only with hard reset, If this happens, all the shortcuts/launchers for applications that are installed in the Storage card will stop working, though you can still launch them by going to the respective folder in Storage Card2. You cannot delete "Storage card" folder because some applications may be using files from here. The solution? Rename the folder! Once you rename, immediately do a soft reset. Once the OS boots again, quickly locate this renamed folder and delete it. Now you can insert your SD/CF card back and you will see it being properly named as Storage Card. Peace.
Good Luck!
A strange thing happened - my memory card changed its name from Storage Card to Storage Card2 - now my progs dont work!
Anyone know how to change it back?
i had that happen to me once, i took the memory card, and deleted the folder called storage card from file explorer and then reinserted the memory card again. You might need to soft reset afterwards
Some program likely tried to write to the card while it was out.
Take your card out
Delete the remaining "Storage Card" folder
Reinsert the card.
Did you try and move the inbox to the memory card?
Have a look at these threads
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=33714901
didnt do anything, think it tried to do something when it was connected to the computer as a storage device.
All sorted now, many thanks.
Ok so I tried accessing my gallery and my folders are missing - rebooted the phone, still missing.... file manger >> sd >> all there is is a friendly name.txt
where has my content gone!?
Also when plugging in my phone to my PC using media player mode only the phone directory displays, no storage card
Has it wiped itself? - How could I check this?
Settigns >>> SD card and phone storage
now reports External SD card as total space 'Unavailable', and the internal SD card as 13.43GB I've tried unmounting and re mounting - no change
if you put it back on a PC, does it read fine your SD card?
make sure you don't have it mounted
when mounted, you can't access it via the phone
I know this is a stupid question, but is it physically present and on the right place? If you try to remove it and put it in another card reader does it read itself? Do you have some other phone you can try this with?
Sorry its the internal SD card that seems to have formatted itself, I had many images etc. on home\sd - now its empty

Your SD card might be corrupted, can you write files on it?
I have realized that the note II internal storage is not treated as an external card and hence gets wiped if flashing certain roms or choosing to factory reset. So, the following barrage of questions relates to "what-if" scenarios when plugging in an SD card into the Note 2.
If I choose to insert an SD card, would the phone automatically start saving content there instead or would I have to tell it to do that? What about all the folders that the phone already created like S Note Export, paper artist and photos from the camera - would they get migrated automatically or would I have to move them manually? Would subsequent photos and files be saved to the SD?
Finally, what about app storage? S Note saves notes to the internal drive but would it save it to the external storage instead if I insert an SD card? How about Spotify with its offline tracks? Would those tracks be stored on the SD rather than the internal storage if a card is detected?
Okay, one more to really complicate things: What if I insert an SD card, do a titanium backup of several applications with their corresponding data on internal storage, save those backups on the SD card, factory reset/format the phone, and then restore the backups from the SD card? Would the associated data go on the SD card or internal storage?

When you insert an sd card the camera app asks if you want to start saving photos there.
Downloads automatically go to external.
But aside from that I havent noticed any other moving. Screenshots still all go to internal as does s note and most other apps.
Still looking for a way to make them shift.
Anything already on internal storage had to be moved manually. Took a whike too lol.
Sorry but mot sure about your other questions. Hopefully someone else can answer
