Help HTC Desire HD Memory Card problem, help?

[trickstyle48]

Hi people, now bear with me if this problem has already been solved and it's on another thread, I have no idea how to work these forum things, so be patient please!

Here's the problem... I got myself a 32GB Micro SD card to replace the old 8GB card, and I've tried syncing my music from my iTunes library onto it, problem is that some of the music doesn't show up, and when some of the songs do appear in my library, apparently, some of them can't be accessed or read... When I used my old 8GB card, there were no problems like this, so I don't know why this is happening...

Where did you get the 32GB card from? Ebay? There are loads of fake cards kicking about, so you could have been sold a lower capacity card that's made to look like 32GB.

I dont think its fake to be honest, Ive popped it into my phone and it seems to be working fine. And yes, I got it from ebay...

Have you tried to put 32GB of stuff on there? If you get errors when you fill it up, that'll tell you whether or not it's one of the ebay fakes.

Even if it is real and just faulty, hopefully the seller will allow a refund, if not, you'll need to open a dispute with ebay.

I havent filled it up to capacity, Ill try that now and see what happens... Thanks, hopefully I might be able to get a refund if the memory card really is faulty...

Can someone advise me too please.

I posted earlier but not right response and the questions in here are what I asked.

Basically my card is 16gb and I it states on my phone that that is the capacity however I have the exact same problem. My phone has got half an album as recognisable and the other as unknown artist and won't play.

Yes I bought mine on eBay but surely if it states that I have 11gb available then I should have a real one??

Also te latest update won't go on my phone as it states that I don't have an SD card installed...erm yes I do cos my music's on it>?

Any help and advice would be great...I'm on my second one of these aas HTC couldn't recognise the problem and just replaced it lol
