Have you tried a soft reset of your device?

U need a class6 or above microSD card in order to install the apps on the SD card.U can use class4 card but the performance will drop. Which card are u using for your Lumia 520??

 

[Ravindra lohakare]

Yes.

No reset and using class 4 4gb san disk but i was able to install apps on card earlier......??

I would advice you to make a backup of you MicroSD card, remove and Format the card by connecting it to a PC ..avoid quick format.
You can move the apps installed on your card to internal memory to avoid downloading them again.
Do not remove the card directly.. Go to Settings--> Storage sense -->SD card-->remove SD card.
Let me know if this Helped.

Yep better to move apps to internal memory since one can't copy apps from memory card to a new one. Do you have storage sense? What is the error you are getting..

 

[Cherub Kerketta]

Formated sd card but didn't solve the problem n ys i hv storage sense n no error is being displayed

Some apps (like whatsapp) cannot be installed on SDcard. Are you trying to install (and or move ) any of such apps on your SD card??
