SD Card is not inserted
#6
I have the same issue, with the wrinkle that it errored at first, then worked exactly once, but is now giving me the error again.

Initially I was using a 16GB Transcend SD card that I reaped from an old digital camera - card is probably a decade old. I formatted it exFAT, filled it with mp3s, and it Just Worked.

Got a brand new Lexar 1TB Professional SILVER PLUS UHS-I microSDXC (exFAT out of the box), which is what I use in my camera and e-reader and have had really good reliability and performance. I put about 70GB of music on it to start off, loaded it into the Tangara - SD card not inserted or could not be opened. It works in my laptop and my ereader.

I tried inserting and removing a couple times, flipping it in the SD card cover, flashing to 1.3.2 - still same error.
I put the Transcend back in and got the same error (ugh).

Finally tried a hard reset with the Lexar SD card in, and it worked! Got the message that the database was indexing and could see the normal UI. I didn't try playing any music as we were walking out the door for a road trip.

In the car now... And it's giving the not inserted / could not be opened error again. Hard reset doesn't resolve it. Super frustrating.

Any suggestions? (Hopefully other than "get a new SD card"... I'd really like to get this working if possible.)
