Cosmo 3 not recognizing microSD card old content

I have a question/problem similar to one previously posted here but slightly different.
I upgraded from LG Cosmo 2 to LG Cosmo 3. The microSD card I was using in the Cosmo 2 had pics and ringtones on it. When I insert the card in the Cosmo 3 it does not recognize any content on the card. If I connect the phone to my laptop in USB mode I can see all the pics and ringtones on the card, which is in the phone. I tried moving the card content to the phone memory but it still did not recognize the files. If I move a new pic from the phone memory to the card, the phone recognizes that. How do I get the phone to recognize the old content on the card? Thanks.

Different phones (even updated models from the same manufacturer, like the Cosmos 2 to the Cosmos 3) use different formatting; copy the data to your computer, then format the card in the phone (erasing all the data), then copy the files back to the appropriate folders on the newly formatted card.  The phone should then be able to find the files on the correctly formatted card.

  • Lumia 625 does not detect MicroSD cards, please he...

    My Lumia 625 does not detect MicroSD cards when inserted.
    I have tried powering off/on.
    I have tried formating them in my PC.
    I have updated my phone to 3050.0000.1334.0007
    I have tried a Kingston 64GB SDXC Class10
    I have tried a Sandisk Ultra 64GB SDXC Class10
    I have tried formatting the cards in various ways including exFAT / FAT32 / FAT64 etc.
    The only progress i made was when i tried formatting in NTSC and after inserting the card i recieved a message saying "incomattable formatted card inserted, do you whish to format the card in a compattable format?" After choosing yes, the phone formatted the card and then the card was undetected...
    This was confirmed by checking the card in my PC, which confirmed that the card had been formatted using exFAT, which i believe is the correct format for the phone/card.
    Clearly the phone is somehow detecting and writing to the card and the card is functioning properly, except that the phone does not detect that the card exists as expanded memory and will not allow me to use it.
    Any help with this would be really appreciated!
    Becoming quite frustrated now...   

    Hi Pepperami33,
    Have you tried to perform a reset? It will delete all your data so backup is required. See this link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/how-to/wp8/basics/back-up-my-stuff for the steps on how to backup your files. After creating a backup, go to Settings > About > Reset your phone.
    If the reset will not work, it is best to have your phone checked by our care point. Visit www.nokia.com/support for more info about the repair process.

  • Older iMac not recognizing AirPort card

    I manually installed an AirPort Extreme card in my G4 iMac. I followed the instructions exactly. However, it's not showing up anywhere in the Network Preferences. It's like I never installed it. I think I did everything right, I even went back and did it again, still to no avail.
    Is there something I'm missing here? Remove screws, plug in card, restart computer, right?
    Part of what be my problem is I'm using a newer iMac that does have an AirPort card built-in as a base station, (or, at least, that's the plan- is nothing showing up because I don't have a real base station?). Maybe I'm totally wrong about all this, but I don't think that should stop my computer from not recognizing the card.
    It is an older card, bought refurbished from the Apple Online Store.

    Which G4 iMac did you install the card into? Does it have a clock speed of 1 GHz or faster? Click on the Apple menu and select "About this Mac".
    Assuming the clock speed is 1 GHz or faster, run System Profiler and look in the "AirPort:" field. If the card is not recognized, the field will be blank.

  • 400 mhz G4 PB not recognizing Airport card

    HELP!!! i'm a PC girl learning Mac, and bought a used G4 powerbook to try it out. I then purchased a used Airport card to go wireless. However the computer is not recognizing the card. It is installed correctly- barcode up, all the way in, but no go. Is there anyway to test (like will a trip to the Apple store help or will they look at me like i'm from the dark ages?) the computer or the card? I was going to attempt to harvest the card from my snow base station but don't have a star tip for my screwdriver to get into the thing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!!! THANKS!

    Thanks brody. That is the card I have. I was guessing at the OX I have as I bought this machine used and truly have no idea where to find half the stuff much less what it is. since I figured out where to find it, I'm running 10.4.11.
    I appreciate everyone's help. I've had the hardest time figuring out just which model I have. i've yet to find a picture just like it. I'm not even sure it's a 12, since dummy me didn't realize they're like tv's and measured diagonally. I think it might actually be a 15 inch if that makes a difference. 2 hinges in the back, all the ports in the back under a cover (I must have looked rather comical until I figured that one out) card slot is on the left side, dvd drive in the front. I was told it was a titanium but honestly it didn't matter to me so I didnt' check to make sure. I just wanted something relatively cheap to see if I really liked a mac before i plunked down a couple of thousand on a new one. It wasn't until I had trouble with the card that I found out all these different ones existed.
    also, it looks like there are actually 2 slots to the card reader, although I cannot access it from the battery bay. The slot I can access that the card does actually fit in is from the left outside. the other slot is under it (I can see it with the keyboard off and the card removed) and looks as thought the card would be inserted similar to the one i can use, except the body of the powerbook is in the way. I'm afraid to do much more than I have hardware wise as my PC kicked the bucket so this is my only working computer right now. Let me know what you guys think!!
    THANKS!!!

  • BB Pearl not Recognizing Media Card

    I have a 2GB Kingston MicroSD card installed in my BB.  It has been working fine for the past month or so (since I got the phone) and has 4 or 5 pictures and another 5 of 6 ringtones stored on it.  Earlier this week, I had been hooking the phone up to the computer using the USB cable and it would prompt me if I wanted to access the media.  I would say no and go on from there.  Then Wednesday, all of a sudden the BB started no longer recognizing the card.  Today, I went into the settings and they are:
    Media Card Support - On
    Encryption Mode - None
    Mass Storage Mode Support - On
    Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected - Prompt
    A media card is not presently inserted in the device.
    I take the media card out and plug it into the computer and it is still showing all the files on there.  When I plug the phone into the computer, it is not being recognized by the computer.  
    Any suggestions?
    Solved!

  • Iphone not recognizing SIM card

    Since I bought my Iphone about 5 months ago, a few times it would say that there is no SIM card inserted, when in fact there had been one. I would remove and reinsert the card or do a hard shut down and restart and the problem would go away. Yesterday, as I was scanning my applications a error message came on saying it did not recognize a network. Then I noticed the functions on would not work. Basically it froze. So I restarted it. Once the apple logo went off there was an icon of a USB to be connected to iTunes, with no other functions working. I then patched it to my laptop and the error message on the laptop said that there was no SIM card in the Iphone. thinking its a SIM card problem I inserted someone elses SIM in my iphone. Same problem. I inserted my SIM in another iphone. No problem. It was not a SIM card issue. Without the iphone recognizing the SIM card the phone could not even be reset.
    I took the phone to the Service provider in Malaysia MAXIS. They said the iphone is defective and had to be taken in for repair. The problem is they will most probably replace the phone, However there policy with Apple they say is that I have to WAIT 6-8 WEEKS for a new set. How ridiculous is that?
    The worry I have now is that all my apps that I bought, what will happen to them? All the online games that I have been leveling up for months, what happens there? I could never sync my phone with my laptop when it came to the apps. It just would not sync!
    It is disappointing to think that Apple does not have a solution to customer software and program issues.

    You're right - it is ridiculous however thats not a decision made by Apple, but by Maxis. If Apple were asked to rpovide immediate replacements, they would do so and Maxis would have to pay the price. Under warranty, in other countries we can go into an Apple store and get an immediate replacement.

  • IPhone 5 not recognizing SIM card, I can't activate the phone.

    Hi, everybody.
    A couple of days ago, I bought an iPhone 5 from a friend. I have an iPhone 4 and, as you know, they both have different SIM card sizes (4 uses micro size and 5 uses nano size). When I got the iPhone 5, I restored it to factory settings, but couldn't activate it 'cause I didn't have the nano SIM card (or SIM nano card, anyhow it goes), so I just turned it off. Next morning, I went to my mobile carrier to buy a nano SIM card (they took like 28 hours long to activate it…anyway) but the iPhone is not recognizing it, so I cannot activate it.
    I've gotten stuck in the white "Hello" screen for like 3 days already and I'm running desperate 'cause I wanna use my stupid iPhone 5…
    Please, guys, any help?
    EDIT: It cannot be restored via iTunes 'cause I get a screen saying that there's no SIM card in the iPhone I'm attempting to activate. The friend who sold me the phone showed me a way to restore it on the phone itself, without having to send the command through iTunes 'cause he said that from iPhone 4S onwards all phones have to be restored with a SIM card inserted. Thing is, I tried this two or three times on the iPhone 5 but the device still doesn't recognize the stupid SIM…

    EDIT 2: It cannot be restored via iTunes 'cause I get a screen message saying that there's no SIM card in the iPhone I'm attempting to activate. The friend who sold me the phone showed me a method for restoring it on the phone itself, without having to send the command through iTunes (connect the phone to computer, turn it off, hold both Home and Power buttons until the Apple logo disappears, release the Power button without releasing Home button, iTunes shows a message about an iPhone in restoring mode, restore, etc.). Thing is, I tried this two or three times on the iPhone 5 but the device still doesn't recognize the stupid SIM…
    Please, help

Please help I hope I didn't loose all my music!!!

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
    What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

  • Sd card reader on MBP not recognizing SD card

    The SD card reader on my MBP is not recognizing a new SD card.  I have tried taking it out and putting it back in.  I looked in disk utility, but do not see it listed.  "I also tried image capture.  What else can I try?

  • Account not recognizing gift card

    So I redeemed a gift card but then had to reset my password because I forgot it...now my account isn't recognizing my gift card has been redeemed & keeps asking me for my billing information and won't let me purchase music. Should I troubleshoot or what in the world do I do

    Hi Jeff,
    I saw Chris' reply to you below as well. I could be wrong, but I believe what he is trying to clarify is that as long as it's not a card that says "Digital Album" on it. Those are cards that have content on them instead of balance.
    Now if your card is a $25.00 card, then I'm pretty certain it is a regular iTunes gift card.
    First thing to check. When you go to iTunes home page, on the upper-left hand corner, next to your account name (most likely your email), do you see a balance there (i.e. $25.00). If you do not, then logout of iTunes and re-log back in. You should see a balance other than $0, then when you purchase, it would use that balance first.
    Try that and let me know if you still get the error.

  • SDHC cards not recognized​, xD cards read perfectly

    I have a problem with the card reader in my HP x18 1080ED notebook.
    When I put a 2GB xD memory card in the slot the card is recognized and shows up in My Computer and I can view the contents.
    But when I put in a SDHC card, 256MB or 8GB of 16GB, the light besides the reader lights up 8 times and then nothing happens. The card is not showing up in My Computer.
    I updated the driver, reinstalled it but no effect. I also check the cards in another computer also HP and the cards work on that computer. What is the problem can anyone help me!
    Thanks, hope you can help.

    your computer is a dv8-1080ed Correct?
    If so it may not support the SDHC type card.  I would got to the HP website and search Product information and Troubleshooting tab, in the Manuals section there should be a entry called External Media where it will list the type of cards your system supports. For the dv8-1080ed It doesn't appear that the SDHC cards are supported.

  • ITunes Store Not Recognizing Gift Card Credits

    I recently redeemed a gift card and now $25.00 is showing as available on my iTunes Store page. However, when I attempt to buy any 99-cent song, I get following message:
    “Your remaining credits are insufficient or inapplicable to this purchase. Your account will be debited for some or all of this purchase”
    Apparently there is some disconnect between my account and my iTunes store page. Apple support has been non-responsive and unable to help me with this problem. Any ideas?
