Hi I am father of 7 years old son and a 5 years son. And I am preparing my 2nd Grader son an English study deck. Both to help his lessons in school and teach him English better.

So I prepared a deck consist of 230 cards with pics and sound files in Ankidroid. I checked card by card to make all cards with sound and pic at least 4 or 5 times.

But still when I check media it says 59 media files are missing. And also when I export this deck to use in other device, anki creates a broken .apkg file.

Please help me... thank you for your interest and helps beforehand :)

Did you create the deck in AnkiDroid and do you have all the media files on that device as well? Could you go review the deck to find the cards with missing media files and check that they're referenced correctly from the card?

Yes I did create deck in Ankidroid.
I checked main deck with custom study > ramdom cards with 300 cards which takes all 230 cards in. And checked all 230 more than 4 or 5 times. If you want I can check it one more time. All of cards with sound and pic are working OK. But when I click "check media" in main menu I see 59 missing. I can't find where is that 59 missing media files.

By the way in some cards some choices are same. for ex.

What is number in picture?
A) four [sound:four.mp3]
B) six [sound:six.mp3]
C) nine[sound:nine.mp3]
--------------
B

Same question with different picture

What is number in picture?
A) four [sound:four.mp3]
B) six [sound:six.mp3]
C) nine[sound:nine.mp3]
--------------
C

Can this be a problem?

By the way when I share "2nd Grade English" deck ankiweb.net just creates a working deck and share it correctly.

Thanks. When you open that deck in Anki Desktop and run "Check Media" from there, it will show you the names of all files that weren't found, which should help you to fix the cards. In your case, capitalization is often incorrect and spaces are inserted, e.g. "Good_evening" and " Good_Evening" where the correct file name is "Good_Evening" etc.

Thank you so much it helped a lot. I fixed all cards. No missing files. Just as you mentioned, it's all about mistyping file names.

But still there is problem with export with ankidroid. I don't know why it creates a broken .apkg file but I can't struggle with it so I just share deck on ankiweb.net and download to other device. Quick solution.

Thank you so much for your help.
