I have inserted a MicroSD card to my Atrix and every time I plug it in a computer only the external card gets mounted but the internal card still appears with a drive letter in the explorer.
Is it possible to have access to both cards at the same time when plugged in over USB?
There is a setting in SD card management to give you access to both.

hello guys!
my problem is popular on google but i don't see any one with my problems.
Anyway, i used my usb to connect and transfer some pics and some music.
Everything was OK until i unplugged my usb. PROBABLY WITHOUT UNMNOUNTING (on my mac). The message on my x10 is like this "preparing sd card. checking for errors"
I have tried to fix the problem by recovering the phone to fabric mode (?).
Anyway i just want to know how to fix this and i have tried a different card into my phone so there is no problems with the phone.
My comp doesn't recognize my x10 anymore. This is really frustrating and i can't use the sd card in the phone because it just restarts itself.
Try formatting the card and see if that helps.
how to formate the card if my comp wont read it?
i have no adapter or anything else, except my x10...
The card works in other phones and i have tried micro sd 2gb in my x10 and it works...
PLEASE HELP

Use one of them to format it.
I actually have a similar issue. When connecting the phone to a mac via usb, upon dissconnecting the card becomes unreadable. I used an adapter to reformat the card to get it working again. I am no longer connecting via usb with my mac. Connecting from Bluetooth doesn't cause this problem. Best bet is to borrow/buy an adapter to reformat. Try not to connect to mac via usb as the card almost always becomes corrupt upon disconnection.

How can I charge my HTC HD2 through USB on a computer without mounting my memory card so I can still access all my files and games through my phone? I found absolutely no help for this issue on Google, which is crazy. I also tried ejecting it from Windows, but the card is still unaccessible through the phone after I eject.
set the phone to active sync instead of hard disk and your problem is solved.
I love you. Thanks for the help. rofl
Only happens when I try to sync, if I unplug the sync cable it automatically mounts can anyone help me on this one?
Depending on what USB mode you're using, that might be normal behavior. The mode is either Motorola Phone Portal, Windows Media Sync, USB Mass Storage, or None.
USB Mass Storage would definitely unmount both the internal and SD card.
I had hoped you would be mentioning the problem where they don't REmount after mass storage disconnection. Happened to me thrice and I'm still on my first week with this phone...

Further; I hoped one could keep one of the two stores mounted while the other is accessable over mass storage. That bubble popped a couple of days ago also.

So I removed MotoMedia Link software, cleaned the registry on laptop then rebooted. Reinstalled software and was able to sync phone to computer without having SD card ext unmounting. I think it was a driver issue or something.
Atrix rooted 1.5.7
GingerBlur 1.2

If I was in that situation I would format the sd card in windows as fat32 and give itanother try.

Try to format on your windows PC. If that doesn't work, the card is a cheap chinese copy and no 16GB-version...
I did the same replacement and it worked fine.
I formated new card in PC as FAT32 (like original card). Then I copied all content from old 8GB card through USB disk option on my phone directly to new 16GB card pluged into my laptop. After copying was finished, I replaced cards and all was working fine.
I did this:
Shutdown phone.
Eject 8GB card from phone and plug into PC.
Copy contents to temp folder on disk.
Plug 16GB card into PC.
Format FAT32.
Copy contents from temp folder to root of 16GB card.
Eject 16GB card from PC and plug into phone.
Switch on.
I had the same problem.
I bought my sandisk 16gb sdcard from ebay, at the beggining worked fine but after a few months started to act weird. I copied media files and the one moment was there but when i unplugged the usb cable it's gone, other times it kept some files.
I tried to format the sdcard, use big block size, i even used SDFormater which is for sdcards specific format but nothing happens.
I thought it might be the usb cable but after i used back the 8gb samsung sdcard works like a charm.
As for the sandisk i would like to contact the company to see their opinion.
Try with a different card, and see what happens.

Check if the price you bought the card is at least close to the real price of the card. Many ebay cards are fake. The fact that it says "Sandisk" on the card doesn't make it genuine. From my experience Sandisk are the safest and one of the most expensive card on the market. I use their Extreme series for my cameras and never had a single problem with them.
Probably it's fake. I bought it the half price of what it costs in my country.
So I was wondering if anybody else has had this problem. So I plug in my phone to transfer music to my phone and I worked fine. The next day I wanted to save some of my picture I took that day to my computer and all the sudden my computer tells me that "this device is unrecognizable." So I tried to do it on my friends computer and it tells me the same thing (we both have windows 7). My phone charges fine it just won't let me put it on USB disk drive mode. I just wondering if its the cord or my phone

I used to have the same issue. What i did was i formatted my sd card. Right click the sd card in my computer, and format it (either NTFS or FAT, not sure), and it worked for me.
I did lose some data on my sd card, but it was nothing i didnt already have on my computer
hope this helps.. if not sorry for wasting your time
If formatting SD card doesn't help - try rebooting to FASTBOOT and attempting connection. If it'll still be connected as "unrecognized device" - then you either have a bad cable or a bad USB slot, and I can even point specifically that you have a bad D+ line.

Try Multi-Mount SD from the market. Maybe that'll fix things. And try what Jack_R1 said.

I have had this problem several timed before. It usually happens when the cable is starting to peel and the wires are showing... or if the cable is too bent at the ends.... I just buy another cable and the problem is fixed...
Hope I helped
