What do you mean by "modify the SD card"?

Who told you that? or where did you read that?

File commander is good ..but i've found better apps but they can't edit the SD card contents.
File commamder is not good in sorting images albums and songs .. It alwas shows them in a seperate folders . And there are many apps solves this for me .

I can't solve that for you, you should contact the app developers.

It should

http://www.xda-developers.com/android-5-0-sd-cards/

With Lollipop, applications can now access the entire SD card, thanks to the ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE intent. Naturally, the choice will be given to user, but having richer access for certain applications may bring some potentially very useful apps.

Giving wider access to applications might be especially useful for camera apps, sound recorders, and so on, because other applications will have easier access to content that has been created. This should also save you the headache when your SD card decides to stop working or crash your apps.

Soon, we should see file managers with richer features, which will also spare developers from implementing messy hacks in order to make their application work with external SD cards. Android Lollipop is still at a very early stage and only very limited range of devices have it, but soon we should see whether these methods work in practice or not.
