Table 8-4 Solving Media Card Reader Problems
Media card will not work in a digital camera after formatting it in Windows.
Cause Solution
By default, Windows will format any media card with a
capacity greater than 32MB with the FAT32 format. Some
digital cameras use the FAT (FAT16 & FAT12) format and
can not operate with a FAT32 formatted card.
Either format the media card in the digital camera or select
FAT file system to format the media card in a computer with
Windows.
A write-protected or locked error occurs when attempting to write to the media card.
Cause Solution
Media card is locked. Locking the media card is a safety
feature that prevents writing to and deleting from an SD/
Memory Stick/PRO card.
If using an SD card, make sure that the lock tab located on
the right of the SD card is not in the locked position. If using
a Memory Stick/PRO card, make sure that the lock tab
located on the bottom of the Memory Stick/PRO card is not
in the locked position.
Can not write to the media card.
Cause Solution
The media card is a read-only memory (ROM) card. Check the manufacturer’s documentation included with your
card to see if it writable. Refer to the previous section for a
list of compatible cards.
