Note 7 Won't See SD Card

[free2spin]

I installed a 64gb Evo Samsung card and the Note 7 says no sd card installed. Anyone else have this issue? I did move it from my Note 3 though I can't imagine the formatting is different.

There may be a difference in formatting. Do you have an option to format it under settings>storage?

Also how old is the card? Sd cards have a short lifespan

I would remove it and reseat it in its spot. Those can be a tad touchy.

I also moved my 64gb Evo Samsung card from my N3 to N7 and it Recognized it immediately..... I did turn the N7 off before pulling the tray out tho

I just tried that and nothing. It doesn't even give me the option to format.

Less than a year.

Weird. I installed my 256gb (thanks samsung) with no issue. However it would not read in my original surface pro but on well. Smart Switch was better than I thought.

One would expect a new 256 card to work..
The op is having trouble with a card previously used in another phone

My mistake. I missed that. Note 3. Hmm....May need to reformat. Or just buy a new one and transfer content. I mean you can get a new micro SD 64 gb for less than $20 on Amazon

Reason why i put new cards in every device .....then drag and drop from laptop

I was hoping that staying within the note family would allow cross pollination. Guess not.

I did the same exact thing as you and it worked for me. Same identical gear as yours.

N3
64gb Evo
N7

I would copy everything to a PC just to be safe. Then have the PC reformat, and then reformat again on the phone.

I must have done something wrong then cause it's a no-go. Will have to try a new card. My worry is that there's not even an option to format. I would think the phone should be able to see a card regardless of the format, then give me the option to format.

Will try that tomorrow.

You're right. It should, but there is a big difference between should and do.

This. My microSD card fit very tight. I had to press it hard into the tray to seat it correctly.

stupid question but I can't find the Storage option.
