The album covers of my music stored on my phone's SD card (Android) disappeared, when I replaced it with a bigger one (8 GB to 32 GB). Why?

More details: I have copied EXACTLY the same files from my previous SD card to the new one. Previously, I've downloaded all of the covers (around 800 so it has taken a lot of time) with a suitable app but now they're gone. Why? Both the music and the covers have been stored on the SD card... How can I fix this problem without having to download them again? (If I put the 'old' SD card back, the covers are still there in the music player...!) Is it in connection with the .nomedia file on my SD card?

Thanks.
