it might be an issue with your SD card

settings -> storage -> unmount SD card -> turn off your phone -> take the SD card out put it back in turn it back on and try again

Try to reformat your SD card but before you do so

if you want to preserve all the files from your old SD card

ok on your PC

1) open any folder -> click on tools -> properties -> view -> show hidden files

2) mount your phone with the NEW SD card and delete everything (save any file that you might want to keep)

3) swap SD cards, mount the old SD card, go to your SD card, press Ctrl + A then Ctrl C, on your desktop create a new folder, open it, then press CTRL + V

4) swap SD cards, mount the new SD card, open the folder you just created, press Ctrl + A then Ctrl C, open your SD card, Ctrl + V

well if you don't backup your files on your PC and you just reformat your SD card, you will lose everything thats on it
