from sd card to phone memory (sd card went bad) then put back on new card?

Easiest thing to do would be to insert the SD card into a pc and transfer the data that way. As far as I'm aware that would be your only option.

There may be apps in the play store but I couldn't recommend one.

if u want to transfer to internal memory from sd card just start any file manager and copy it otherwise as rsfour said best option is to put the mmc in the pc and copy it. In future its advisable to keep dropbox installed as it will auto backup ure pictures.

Use air droid to transfer to PC, then back.

Simple way is to connect phone to PC and use Windows Explorer and drag and drop from External SD to Internal SD.

I use the application Android File Transfer on my MacBook, I think this is the official way. Seems OSX doesn't support the MTP device mode (what the S3 uses) for media devices naively. MSC is the "other" way phones often use to connect to computers, which is the mode USB drives, for example, also use. My (US Verizon) S3 doesn't have that option.

<soapbox>
It annoys the hell out of me that Apple doesn't support this (why would use a non-ios device on OSX?) AND Samsung doesn't allow a MSC mode on the S3 (or is it Google phasing this out of Android?). Everyone with their damn technical agenda and we the customers are the ones that suffer.

one other way .. is to use a cloud storage service.
copy to cloud.. then copy back to phone.

one great service is Dropbox. it syncs to many devices!!! that is it's beauty.
you can have dropbox on your phone, tablet, ipad, mac, pc, laptop.
at any location.. you can put a file into the dropbox folder. it will sync it to all devices.

Aardvark... cloud service also a solution around that soap-box..
