I just bought a used Acer A500 16 GB tablet yesterday. Everything works great — except it doesn't recognize my 16 GB microSD card for storage, but says there is no external SD storage or it is emulated.

I don't know a lot about rooting and such; the guy just told me it was rooted and is running JellyBean 4.1, which works great.

Does anyone know how to get my SD card recognized again?

@Izzy Make sure to get the title when you edit ;) – Matthew Read♦ Dec 2 '12 at 0:53
Oh... I didn't figure anything wrong with it -- but true, now it's much clearer. I will watch out better next time :) – Izzy Dec 2 '12 at 1:24

Please ensue that the device supports SDHC microSD cards.

Also ensure that the sd card is fat16 formatted.
