SD Card Not Supporting Anything.

A

AC Question

I have a Samsung Galaxy Core 2 smartphone. I bough TOSHIBA 8 gb micro SD card for the device. But when I transfer a music or video in the card through usb from my PC, the device says couldn't play the music/video. The same happens when I transfer an apk file. It cant install it. And when I try to save a document in the sd card or move/copy something in it, it says cant move/copy. Is this a read-only issue? Then how to fix this?

Welcome to Android Central! What version of Android is the phone running? KitKat introduced limitations to what apps can do on an external SD card--the app needs specific permissions now to read and write to the card, so I'm not sure if that's part of the issue.

Also make sure the card is what it says it is, and not a counterfeit. Run SD Insight.
