Tried again to moved the app to the SD card, but it again failed. Actually, it said it was doing it, but both times it just sorta stopped and said that it couldn't.

Any ideas on how SD card usage is managed? What apps, what types of data, can or cannot use it?
Just an FYI concerning moving apps to the mSD card. First off, not all apps will transfer and secondly, those that do transfer will need that mSD card in the phone in order to function. Let's say you have several cards (one for music, one for audiobooks, and one for videos) and you start swapping. Any apps stored on those cards will lose functionality once that card is removed and you'll have to reload the app.
