Memory card and front USB port troubleshooting

Use this section to solve these memory card problems:

My memory card no longer works in my digital camera

The HP All-in-One does not read the memory card or storage device

The Photo light next to the memory card slots is blinking

The Attention light blinks when I insert my memory card or storage device

The photos on the memory card or storage device do not transfer to my computer

Memory card or storage device is not available

Photos in a connected digital camera with PictBridge do not print

The file name appears as meaningless text

Other users on the network can access my memory card or storage device

Error message: Cannot find the file or item. Make sure the path and file name are correct.

Troubleshooting

My memory card no longer works in my digital camera

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: Reformat your memory card in your camera or format your memory card in a Windows XP computer by selecting the FAT format.

The HP All-in-One does not read the memory card or storage device

Cause: The card is inserted backwards or upside down.

Solution: Turn the memory card so that the label side is on the left and the contacts are on the right (and facing the device), 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 HP All-in-One will not respond and the Photo light (near the memory card slots) will not turn on.
