Use only one card at a time

Solution: You can insert only one memory card at a time.

If more than one memory card is inserted, the attention light will blink rapidly, and an error message will appear on the computer screen. Remove the additional memory card to resolve the problem.

Cause: There were two or more memory cards inserted into the product at the same time.

If the memory card is not inserted properly, the product will not respond and the attention light will blink rapidly.

Solve a problem

Card is damaged

Solution: Reformat your memory card in your camera or format your memory card in a Windows XP computer by selecting the FAT format. For more information, see the documentation that came with your digital camera.

CAUTION: Reformatting the memory card will delete any photos stored on the card. If you have previously transferred the photos from your memory card to a computer, try printing the photos from the computer. Otherwise, you will need to retake any photos you might have lost.

Cause: You formatted the card on a Windows XP computer. By default, Windows XP will format a memory card of 8 MB or less and 64 MB or more with the FAT32 format. Digital cameras and other devices use the FAT (FAT16 or FAT12) format and cannot recognize a FAT32 formatted card.

Solution: Turn the memory card so that the label faces up and the contacts are facing the product, and then push the card forward into the appropriate slot until the Photo light turns on.

If the memory card is not inserted properly, the product will not respond and the attention light will blink rapidly.
