Short answer: since Android 4.0, the OS no longer supports this. Instead, Android 4.0+ devices have one large storage partition that can be used for apps, media, or whatever.

Longer answer: http://forums.androidcentral.com/android-applications/246277-download-install-apps-sd-card.html There are several other threads on this topic, too.

As for Astro not showing the card, are you sure the card is inserted fully? I don't use Astro, so can't offer any specific help for that. You might want to try ES File Explorer. Or maybe an Astro user will chime it. You might want to show us a screen shot of what Astro shows when you try to find the external SD.
