Micro SD Card issues

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 which I recently upgraded to the official Lollipop 5.0.1 update. I also added a new Samsung 64 GB (Class 10) Micro SD Card. When I use the Micro SD Card in a card reader in Windows 8, I can easily add / delete files without any problems. When I use the Micro SD Card in the Samsung Galaxy S4, it works fine for a while, then suddenly files and folder automatically disappear or files become corrupt; photos clicked with the camera disappear instantly. I am not sure if the problem lies with the Micro SD Card, the phone, the OS or some app.
Please could someone help!
I would suggest to format the card in your phone (if not already done). And then try it again.

I found that you cannot even use the sd card as storage for apps with the 5.0.1 rom this is a issue for me as far as the sd card corrupting files im not sure i am using a 16 gig and i had to set everything manually to save to sd card or move it over myself such as the camera and downloads, but for apps not a chance

This is also the case on KitKat.

Move files to External SD card

Hello, I'm new to the Note 4 and new to a phone with an SD card slot in general. I've found that I'm unable to move files from internal storage to the SD card. Is there a way to do this without rooting? I'm on a Verizon model on lollipop. If there is no way to do this without rooting, what is the advantage to having an SD card slot if the only thing I can put on it is pictures?
It should be fixed in Lollipop. It works for me.
Look for "com.speedsoftware.explorer" in Play Store and try again, but the default file manager should do just fine.

Moving apps to the SD card corrupts them

I have a S5 G900F, stock ROM G900FXXU1BOE5 not rooted. I have a ton of apps and I have a Sandisk Extreme 3 with 32gb. I never had issues with the phone nor sd card. I save documents, pictures and videos in the SD card.
However I reached the point when I really need to move some Apps to the SD card. The problem is that when I move them, it says application moved and then it says that the memory card can be safely removed. I need to go to settings-> storage and mount again the sd card. Once I do it the moved application appears with an android icon, it says the name like com.whateverapp.xxx and when you open it, it says the application stopped working.
The application cannot be moved back to the internal storage. Does somebody know how to fix this issue?
Uh... I never had "memory card can be safely removed" message after moving app to SD card.
And as you can see, I have some of them there... None of them stopped working.
SD card is Kingston class 10 64GB card

I have upgraded my phone to marshmallow. I formatted my sd card to use as external storage. Now I want to change my sd card to class 10 type. I bought one memory card. How can I transfer all files from previous card to new card without any data loss? I have not tried anything as while formatting present sd as internal storage it showed that card would not be recogniged by any other system from now.

Micro SD Card Replacement

I've moved some apps to the 32GB Micro SD Card. If I want to replace it with a 64GB should I move them back to the internal storage first?
