This also happens with the micro sd card. Until now it was working, now it doesn't show anything. And I just added one .odt file to the Document map in micro sd card.

I have connected an SD-card to the tablet through an USB card reader, but the File Manager App shows no files although I have copied 3 files onto it from my Ubuntu PC.

After connecting the newly formatted (on the PC, couldn't format from the M10) card to the M10, it shows no files. Connecting the same card to the PC through the same USB card reader then shows 5 folders: Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures and Videos. I copied 1 LibreOffice document, 1 jpg file and 1 mp3 file to their respective folders. In addition, I copied the 3 files to the root folder of the SD card. Still, File Manager App says "No files".

I have not had this problem, though I do have to'unlock' with the password which seems odd.
