So I had the 8 gig sd card in my phone with a selection from my music in there. Bands like OneRepublic and stuff (important later). They all worked great. Then I got a 32 gig card and loaded ALL my music, like 13 gigs. I tried doing it through just an sd usb adapter, then through htc sync. Tried it a hundred times. The music has been placed in a folder that htc sync set up for music. I try going to amazon music player but it only recognizes bands up to starting with a c, then skips to rihanna, and then nothing. It won't even recognize Onerepublic anymore! So less than half my music. Then I decide to get a new music player. So I get MixZing and I can scan the media. So I look and it recognizes that there are the onerepublic folders and other music folders, But says there are no music files in them. annoying! I don't think it's because they are the wrong file type. What file type does the inspire read anyways? Most all of them are mp3 and I know the that there are plenty that are missing that are mp3s. I'm thinking it could be an sd card problem? I got it cheap from kingston and I think it busted a little when I tried to put it into the adapter that it came with... I heard a pop. And when I put it in my phone once, the taskbar at top said briefly it was a damaged card. Could that be causing the problem?
 
Make sure the card is properly secured into your inspire. Mount the phone as a disk drive and use your pc to format the card. start over from scratch. If it says unable to read drive, insert drive, etc., then you most likely have a damaged card. If you have to get a new one just put it directly into your phone from the start and load it from within the phone. Skip the adapter in perpetuity. Also, click the "safely remove hardware" icon in the system tray when finished to unmount the phone.

Was all of your music downloaded from amazon? If some of it was ripped from your cds or like me it came from, ahem, "other sources," then you may be having id3 tag issues.

I use Music Folder Player Free because it is the only free one (that I have been able to find) that plays mp3 s by folder and file name rather than id3 tag. (if anyone is aware of a better FREE one then please let me know).
 
Make sure the card is at least class 4 card. Anything slower you've just wasted a lot of money on a card that won't work for your phone. I had a 32 class 2 card and they've always never worked being way too slow and will skip a lot of songs because of this.
