Xperia V sd card storage issues

Hi, I have this problem, I can't save anything in my sd card, everything goes to the internal storage... What can I do?

Or is it because the card is broken or corrupted??

Can you please elaborate a bit? What happens when you try to save data on SD card?

What if you set the camera application to save on SD card? Open camera > settings icon > data storage > SD card. Does that work? 

Can you use settings > storage > transfer data to SD card?

So you have set the camera to save pictures on the SD card but they still are saved to the internal storage? 

Try to clear data for camera under settings  > apps > all > camera > clear data. Restart the phone and try again. 

If that doesn't help. Try using another SD card or try to format the SD card.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

Have you tried to format your SD card? First of all make sure that you have all content on your SD card backed up/moved to your computer. Then go to settings > storage > erase SD card. 

Restart your phone, transfer back content to SD card and see if it works better.
