Help SD Card Problem - Won't appear

Hi guys, a few hours ago I posted a thread because my S3 wouldn't find any new sound tracks on the SD. As someone suggested, I tried to remove di SD and insert it back, well... now in the Music Player it won't even recognize a single folder on the SD as having music etc. In the Gallery, only contents on the Phone Memory appear, while my Pictures on the SD won't be shown. It's not a problem with the SD card, I am pretty sure, I can access these contents by using a file manager, but that's pretty much useless if I can't use the Gallery and Music Player features... any help?

[ROOT] [RECOVERY] SCH-i535 - xda-developers

go there and download the USB driver. install the usb driver before you format the card. or if you already formatted the card download and install the usb drivers anyway. i had the same problem. sd card would nor read in my phone or show up when i connect to my comp.

so i put the sd card back into my old phone and transferred all files i wanted to my comp. installed the sd card back in my sg3. reformatted it. installed the usb drivers. and moved all my files back to the sd card on my phone. now everything pops up like its supposed to.:p it even shows up properly on my comp now as phone storage and sdcard storage.

No better... still not found. Don't understand what's wrong with it.

I have a feeling all your stuff can be found at mnt/extSdCard. My music player finds my music but when i use ES Explorer I do not see anything on the regular sdcard folder. Instead, i have to go to root and then the above.

I'm too lazy to find the config file to possibly change this. Hopefully, some other bright mind can do that. (:
