Mine didn't work straight out of my Captivate. I did a full format on Windows to get mine to work; quick format might do the job too.

I dont have such problems with my external sdcard.
All I can think of, is to try and format the sdcard on your PC as fat 32 (BTW what size is your sdcard?) and copy the file to the sdcard with the pc explorer, assume you are using windows as you are running kies.
This will test if the problem is the sdcard or something else, if the card formats with windows explorer the it should be OK.
Hope you get it to work.

Format the card to FAT 32 via the PC .

Can you mount the sd card on the galaxy?
If not, connect sd card directly to the computer (with card reader) and run cmd. Then use this command to fix the sd
Code:
chkdsk /F [Letter where SD Card is]:
So if my sd card would be on G:, I would write chkdsk /F G:
Ill have a bash at computer fat32 just got a couple of filns transfering ... Fingers crossed thanks for help so far

Yes. Just transfer the files via an SD Card reader.

Welcome aboard matey, Mine came with a 16gb sd card but I have a 32GB class 10 card in my Play.
Highly recommended, the faster speed seemed to have sped up my games also as they were getting a bit jittery when I had the stock 16gb class 4 sdcard in my phone.
If you have a Mac, you can try Carbon Copy Cloner, it's free and it's awesome for cloning an entire disk (or SD card, in this case) to another one. I used it when I got a new SD card for my Play
I also use it to backup my SD card to an image file on my computer every week. Yay!

Go into your SD through windows, select all, copy to a folder. Put in the new card, select all, copy the contents over. Done.
thanks guys...
Hey there im new here on XDA but I was wondering if its possible to run Apps through stickmount using my flash drive or would I need an SD card + adapter to be able to run apps directly. Also gameloft games download an additional 2GB or so depending on the game would this download to the flash drive and be playable from the drive itself or would I need an SD card reader + SD card in order for it to work on my nexus 7 that I preordered.
editff-topic I also wanted someone to direct me on how to add a custom signature to my posts here on XDA. Thanks
Bump
anyone?
You cannot run apps through stickmount. it is only for accessing data media and other types.
all apps and app data must be on the internal memory.
Card reader
Thanks but you can run apps from an SD card. If I used my OTG cable with a SD card reader attached with a 16GB sd card will I be able to store and use my apps from there in my Nexus 7?

No, it's not a "True" SD Card, it still acts like a flash drive.

So essentially no way of running apps from outside flash storage what so ever? Just movies, pictures and files?
Right.

correct.
The internal memory setup emulates an sd card by adding an /sdcard directory.
there is no way to have another directory with that name and all apps are coded to store their information in the /sdcard directory. doing it any other way would break the app for all devices.
i can sure understand why you'd want to do that, but basically it's not possible.
best thing i can recommend is to keep all of your videos on external storage since those are the largest files you'll have.

Just thinking out loud here, but is it possible to rename the internal SD directory? I'm guessing no being that something so conceivably simple hasn't already been done.

Since you are already rooted you could always try this app it may give you the results you require. Bearing in mind that this was originally developed for the S2.

SD cards are too slow to run graphic intensive games (especially THD or Gameloft)

I don't have my S4 yet, but when I got my S3 at launch, I had to format my SD Card with my PC for my phone to read it. Could be worth a shot.
Ok cool thanks ill try that.

Quick question.. Can you try this out for me? I am having a similiar issue with the microSD card. Put music or video in the sd card and navigate to it using the My Files app. I can access everything on my sd card via My Files app explorer but the stock music app or 3rd party apps cant detect it.
