SD card not recognised after updating software

Hi. I have updated my Xperia Z2 to latest firmware and now my SD card is not recognized by phone. The card works ok with laptop. I have backed up the data, formatted the card and tried again: no luck.

I have been an avid Sony user since my very first phone.

I recently bought an Xperia Z3 D6653 and it wonderfully once I got it. The main deciding factor for me getting this phone as opposed to getting another brand was due to the fact that this was one of the VERY FEW PHONES which still utilised the use of an EXTERNAL MEMORY CARD.

However, I recently updated my OS to 6.0 Marshmallow and now the MAIN REASON for me buying the phone is gone..

I am no longer able to access my SD CARD or ANYTHING on it. Thankfully all my information was saved and I can access it on my laptop, but now all my apps and pictures and music can ONLY be stored on internal memory.

My apps take up a large portion of the already limited internal memory. Can you please advise what I can do to rectify this or if another update would be issued to correct this, as I am TRULY CONSIDERING buying another phone and changing my loyalty to this brand.

After the latest Z3 update my Z3 will not read the 32gb sd card that was working fine before ,the 32gb so card can be read by other devices and the Z3 can read a 1gb card , it has just stood reading the 32gb card that was not a problem before. 

Can anyone help fix or even explain this ?
