I recently purchased a micro SD card for my LG G3 with the intention of moving and storing all of my music files on the SD card so that I would have more room on my phone for applications/photos/etc. I moved my music files from the internal memory to the SD card, however, when I tested to see if I could play a music file from the SD card without the file being on the phone's internal memory, the file did not show up on the SD card. I then researched and was told that I needed to have the music folder on my SD card linked to a music player, so I installed the recommended "Poweramp" music player and attempted to link my music folder from the SD card to the Poweramp app. I then tested again by deleting a music file from the internal memory of my phone and attempted to play it in Poweramp, but the music file disappeared again.

Can someone tell me how to CORRECTLY link my SD card music folder with the Poweramp app so that I can play music from the SD card without having the music on the phone's internal memory, which is the primary reason that I purchased the SD card. Thanks!

I have an LG e980 Optimus Pro G and I have found if I have both the LG music player and the Poweramp music player on my phone I have no issues with all of my music being on my SD card whenever I download anything from an outside source it automatically loads to my phone memory I have to physically transfer it to my SD card

In Poweramp Settings > Folders and Library > Music Folders, make sure that your SD Card's main top level music folder (whatever you have called it) is ticked in that list. Then Poweramp's scanner should detect and be able to play any music in there. If it doesn't see it immediately, do a Rescan in the same menu.

@andrewilley I have tried that and it still will not keep a song once I delete it from the built in music player. I want to get to the place where I don't have any music files on my phone's internal memory.

What do you mean by "delete from the built-in music player"? Do you perhaps mean deleting a physical song file from the 'Music' folder in the device's local file system? Also, I'm not sure what you mean by "keep a song" ?

Poweramp should only scan those areas that you have told it to via the Music Folders list. If you don't have any folders within the internal device file system ticked, Poweramp won't even know they are there. If it is not picking up songs on your SD Card when you have got that ticked in the Music Folders list, try a Full Rescan to see if that helps?

Ideally, in the Music Folders list you should have just one top level folder ticked, which would be your main Music folder (or whatever you choose to name it) on your SD Card. Within that folder should be all of your music (probably in lots of subfolders), which will also be ticked by default when you drill down in the Music Folders list.

@andrewilley By "built-in music player", I mean the music player app that came with my LG G3 pre-installed, like the one that you cannot delete even if you try (unless you try really hard maybe, lol), so yes, I suppose that would mean the music folder in my device's local file system, which contributes to the phone's internal memory, right?

When I say "keep a song", I mean that when I have linked the music folder from my SD card to Poweramp (which successfully worked), I do a little test and delete a random song from the "music folder in the device's local file system/internal memory" (or the built-in music app that came with the phone pre-installed, like the equivalent of the itunes music app for iphones) and then I check for that same song in the Poweramp music library AND my SD card's music folder, and every time I have tried this, the song is deleted from both the Poweramp music app AND my SD card's music folder.

So, I guess a better question before I move any further along this process is this: is it possible to delete all of my music files from my phone's internal memory (built-in music app/music folder in phone's local file system) and still be able to keep the files on another music app such as Poweramp and my SD card? Because if not, then I purchased the SD card for the wrong reason.

So your problem is nothing to do with music players as such, but that when you delete a file from your local phone storage (either using the stock player or via a file explorer app) it also seems to delete that same file from your external MicroSD Card?

It sounds very much as though you are not actually viewing the contents of your external SD card at all, but just looking at the same files in a different (virtual) folder view. The folder name "sdcard" on most Android devices actually refers to a part of the internal device memory that is set up ready to store the user's files. On a G3 (I think) the external MicroSD Card is referred to as "external_SD", which can be found in two virtualised paths, /mnt/media_rw/external_SD or /storage/external_SD (both of those paths will display the same file system, they are not different places).

Hi OptimalHome, first of all I want to thank you so much for developing and releasing this great card. A card like this next to the custom spotify card was definitely missing for a long time and bonus we have the search function!

The card catalog represented in this online database was first created by Work Projects Administration (WPA) workers in the late 1930s and early 1940s, and continued by the Archive of Folk Song (now part of the American Folklife Center) staff into the early 1960s. Its purpose was to provide the public with access to the thousands of individual songs, tunes, folk tales, sermons, monologues, and life stories in the Archive's collections.

Please note that this is a digitized collection of catalog cards, not of the audio recordings they represent. Most of these recordings are digitized, but only a fraction of them are available to hear online. If you find a card for a recording you wish to hear, you can search for it by title or number on the Library of Congress website to see if it is available. If you can't find it, feel free to contact us and we can suggest a way to hear it, either by coming to the Library or through another online resource.

Included are the seminal field recordings associated with John A. Lomax and Alan Lomax's Library of Congress collecting work (Lead Belly, Woody Guthrie, Jelly Roll Morton), and Alan Lomax's less well-known field collections in Haiti in 1936 to 1937 and in the upper Midwest of the United States in 1938. There are hundreds of well-known and lesser-known treasures by other notable collectors including Herbert Halpert, Zora Neale Hurston, Henrietta Yurchenco, Vance Randolph, and Helen Creighton, among many others. The catalog also reflects exchange projects with institutions outside the United States, notably the Discoteca Pública Municipal de São Paulo Collection (1938-1943) of field recordings from Brazil; and field recordings collected in Oceania. The researcher may encounter duplicate or multiple cards for some of the non-English recordings in this catalog. The researcher should also be aware that for some non-English recordings from this period, no cards were made. We hope to expand the catalog in the future and add the bibliographic data for the sound recordings that are now represented only as "Spanish" or "Foreign."

The physical card catalog in the Archive is searchable only by title, performer, state (if U.S.), shelflist number (AFS number), or country/language (other than English). The online version of the catalog searches these areas, plus recording dates, recordist's names, and many others.

Please note that this catalog represents only a portion of our recordings; in fact the majority of the Archive's recordings are not represented here. There is also information in the catalog that is incorrect and incomplete. We are continually working to make these corrections and to add more material to the database. If you see an error please feel free to notify us with corrections.

The mission of the Library of Congress is to make its resources available and useful to the Congress and the American people. Through its Web sites, the Library offers broad public access to a wide range of information, including historical materials that may contain offensive language or negative stereotypes. Such materials must be viewed in the context of the relevant time period. The Library of Congress does not endorse the views expressed in such materials.

Manually reinstall the latest firmware. Sometimes the firmware in the player becomes corrupted. Never insert or remove a card while the player is on. Use Sandisk class 4 micro SDHC cards for the best compatibility. Cards faster than class 4 are likely to cause issues.

When you try to view the card contents on the player using the folders menu, do you see all the songs on the card, or just some of them? If the player shows many songs on the card, what happens if you try to play them?
