just updated to v7android and apps can not write to sd card

hello

Like I said above just upgraded to v7android and now my apps can not write to the sd card but the sony apps are fine only third party ones like  fmplayer , file manger+ and pi music player.

eg:- fm player says have not permissions to write to the sd card

so formatted the sd card re-installed app and changed the permission but still will not write to it.

pi music player see the music but it will not play the music.

if any ones has any ideas would be good, the phone was working fine before this update

The only thing left is a factory reset but really do not want to do this

Thanks in advance

I use file manager+ and it sees the sd card but when I click on to explorer the contents it says "Loading Error access denied" even thou it has permission to do so !!!!
