Problems moving an app to my Galaxy S4 sd card

[Larry Virden]

So for the first time in 3 years, my S4 won't move an app marked as being able to be moved.

When I try to move the under a half meg app, it tells me there isn't enough room.

When I run the diskusage application, it tells me there is 6 gig free on the card.

I have rebooted the phone to see if that would help. It didn't.

Anyone have any ideas?

The SD card could be corrupt, defective, or counterfeit. Install SD Insight to see if the card is genuine or counterfeit. Counterfeit cards are programmed to report more storage than they actually have, and if you try saving more than the card can actually hold, then files can start getting corrupt, or it might tell you there isn't enough room.

If it's a valid card, then go to Settings>Storage, Unmount the card, remove it, and insert it into your computer. Can the computer read these files? Backup as much as you can right now, then run chkdsk to look for bad sectors: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...guide-using-chkdsk-fix-corrupted-sd-card.html.
