As noted in my reply to Bev, you should go into "Settings" and select 
"Storage" and explicitly unmount the card before removing it.

Either that or turn the phone off first.

If you don't do one of those things you risk corrupting the filesystem 
of the card by removing it while write operations are pending. (It's a 
small risk as accidents do happen, but it's real.)

Has the Note 4 mounted the card? Go into "Settings" and then "Storage" 
and see what it says. It may show that the card is unmounted, and give 
you the option to mount it. If it thinks the card is mounted try 
unmounting it and then remounting it.

Alternatively, turn the phone off before re-inserting the card, as 
Android will normally mount external filesystems automatically during 
startup.

Does that help?
