5300 memory card problem

My memory card claims to be full, which it should not be. When I go and look at the contents of the card it does not show enough data for the card to be full. There are a bunch of mp3 files that are showing up in my music library, but are no longer listed on the memory card. I would like to delete some of them the clear out space on the card, but I can't seem to find the files. Any ideas?

try file manager and delte
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

Try this first:
Try updating your phone's firmware by clicking to this link below:
http://europe.nokia.com/A4579163
Make sure you meet the system requirements before proceeding and backup some of your important contents.
But it might have developed a slight corruption on the firmware itself.
If the phone still does not show any improvements, I suggest you to send the phone to the Nokia Care Centre near you.
Good luck

N82 Camera & Memory Card Problem

Hello! After two months of careful operation and having the following problem: when you open the shutter of the camera, blinking charging indicator flashes, then a message "unexpected error occurred. Restart the device." Then, the phone does not "see" the memory card (included with delivery). Additional software is not installed. Resetting factory settings did. Memory card in other phones, Nokia tried it - everything is in order. Please define the problem. According to rumors, this is a common problem with this phone. Sin in the xenon flash. With the patience of waiting for a response.

Do a nuclear reset then:
Hold Green button + 3 + *
Turn on the phone
Keep on holding the 3 buttons until the shake hands appear.
Choose your region and that should be done. Your lock code is now should be 12345

N82 memory card problem

Hey guys had my phone since 5th of Jan, has been fine no problems.
Last night I changed where to store my sent messages to the memory card instead of on the phone.
After I sent my first message it asked me to remove the memory card and press ok. I thought this was a bit strange but as it wouldn't let me do anything else I did as I was told.
I replaced the memory card and it carried on working. Now every so often even if the phones keylocked and nothing running it pops up and asks me to remove the memory card. If I leave it and don't remove the card the message goes away.
This might only be slightly annoying but I have had nokias with software faults before and they start off as annoying and then become serious.
Any advice?

No... I should of said the phone changed it back to "store on phone" when it tried to store it on the card and couldn't do.
So now even when I'm not trying to access the card for any purpose it pops up.
For example. Left phone on keys locked over night, woke up and checked phone and as soon as I unlocked the keypad the message came up.
Also when trying out the n-gage demos which as far as I know have nothing to do with the memory card it closed the demo and asked me to remove the card.

Nokia 6500 Memory card problem

When i try to open my mem card it says Memory Card not formatted; Format mem card ?
after i press yes it says Operation Failed.i tried my mem card on other phone and it worked i also tried other mem card on my phone and i got the same problem... So it's the phone problem
Anyone can help me ?

Well, If there are any updates available for your device (look here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update), there could be a slight chance it would work. At least you could try before taking it to a Nokia carepoint. - You could always try to set it back to factory settings too, but I doubt it will be fixed.

6230i memory card problem

I've recently resurrected my old 6230i and begun using it again. However in doing so I've come across a wee problem.....
The big memory card that was supplied with the phone and hidden beneath the battery is only 32Mb - hardly sufficient to use the MP3 Player to any great deal. Looking at it I asserted that it was an SD type card and I went and bought myself a 4Gb one to fit in place of the measly 32Mb effort. Imagine my annoyance when, after buying the new memory card I couldn't get it to fit - it's just slightly too thick. On closer inspection I noted that the card I've bought is actually an SDHC card - but surely that shouldn't make any odds? Would it? Do I need to buy a stricly SD card, without the wee HC ad endum? Or, do I need to buy a smaller capacity memory card, possibly a 1Gb or 2Gb, in the hope that it's of equal thickness to the 32Mb one? Or, knowing my luck, am I just doomed not to get a memory card that fits because in actual fact there isn't one, because Nokia have played a huge trick on the unsuspecting 6230i purchasers????
I await your wisdom dear forum members.
ps......I humbly apologise if this question has already been asked countless times before!!!
Kind Regards,
Paul-D.

The slot in the phone is for an MMC card. It may look like an SD card but not quite the same. Please do check with the card manufacturer for compatibility before buying. The phone is very old and may have compatibility issues with the higher capacity cards nowadays.

Nokia 8gb memory card problem ( semi-empty )

just had a 5800 two weeks ago with a memory card 8gb, it already had some music but i add my own and other stuff and it was cool, i do this by removing the card from the device and put it in a memory card reader and into the usb, one day which is today, i did this to manage some stuff then what happened, the usb connection was last and back again in one second, so i changed te usb port and put it in another one, then what i found is there is nothing, all files and folders gone, there is only one big dump file has the size of 4gb (the size of all the things that should be), 4gb in one file that has no type or any thing its just a file with 4gb which is the size of the music and videos and the stuff that was in the card, so that means that the files supposed to be in the memory card but its stuck in one file, so whats going one i mean, thats it? all files are gone? and what is that big file? even if i give up the memory card will only have 4gb left cuz the file cannot be deleted or moved, by the way the file name is weird but this is the name: USBC╨┘à.
thnx for reading, by the way, the files that was in the memory were very important to me, i spent alot of days collecting those stuff and there are other things such as photos and stuff that i will never had if the memory is gone, when i found out nothing in the memory i lost consciousness for about an hour on the floor.
waiting for replys

Hi ,i just encountered this problem while moving files ,all files
lost except the USBC file from SDHC card.so i ran several recovery
soft. .nothing works.i have successfully recovered those files .
use memory card reader.open command prompt,change to that
drive .use chkdsk /f first .then chkdsk /r.if chkdsk /r ran
properly (in my case i got read error first ,trying second time it
shows the progress),it will show chkdsk found no error.
it will show how much space is taken in how many files and folders
and how much space is free.in may case it was 615 mb in 136
recoverable files.yours may be different.in the SDHC there was a
single file named USBC.Choose option show hidden folders AND show
system files in explorer menu.there will be a directory named
"FOUND.000" like that.there will be files that were lost inside it
with extension CHK.
in my case i changed their ext. to JPG.i got my files.but
in your case these files should be renamed according to their
original name & ext.

Weird Memory Card Problem (E70)

i've just bought nokia E70 a week ago... along with 2 GB minisd card... but within "heavy" use of the phone (installing software/theme, video recording, using camera)... the memory card will get corrupted (lost of data, lost of directory structure)... e.g.: 1. Video folder when browse with file manager in nokia E70, got a question mark icon, and cannot be opened... 2. Files is lost in some directory 3. after error, can't copy file into the memory card i've tried formatting the card from the phone and computer using FAT/FAT32, both work well before "heavy" use... but after a while the problem keep occurring... i already check the memory card, copying almost 2GB of data, comparing, checking/scanning the card without problem (when checked with computer)... and always get problem when tried with the phone.... anyone got the same problem? or any suggestion on what should be done? the phone fw version is: 2.0618.07.10 (31-08-06, RM-10) thanks

Hi,
I have also problems with one of my MiniSD card, the bundled 64MB card works fine but my other Kingston 2GB card does get corrupted. I first thought it was a faulty card so I got another Kingston card as replacement but that works as bad as the first one. Problem is simply that the card gets corrupted. I have also verified this in my colleagues phone (we hoth have a E70 with 2.0618.07.10 firmware) and he has same problems as I do.

E 72 memory card problem

I just got a E 72 on contract europian version,
The phone was supplied with 4 GB memory card but acording to file manager it is full only 929 mb is free space, event this does not actually having more than a few kb's of pre-installed data.
Few of my friends they also got e 72 on contract from same provider and they also have the same problem in their handset.
As i was reading reviews, i came to know most of the E72 users are facing same problem. what do i need to do now.

Hi. I just suggest delete E:\CITIES, and you will bring back almost 2GB. It's because Nokia installed all Ovi Maps in the memory, and it uses almost 2GB. After that, you must use Ovi Suite and install all the maps and voice guidance you will use. In my case, I live in Venezuela and I travel sometimes to Colombia, so I just installed only the Colombia and Venezuela maps. E:\CITIES is using only 30MB.

N97 Mini Memory Card Problem

I've been having a problem with my N97 Mini since installing a SanDisk 16Gb Memory Card.
When switching on the phone it quite often reboots. It will then work fine.
I also get 'memory full' or 'security module' errors. I can fix the issue by rebooting or ejecting the memory card in the file manager (even though I don't need to physically remove the memory card).
If I remove the memory card it works fine and I can't reproduce the errors.
I tried reformatting the card but it hasn't helped; even though it's blank.
Could it be a problem with the phone hardware, the memory card or the firmware (I'm running v11 on vf uk)?

So I've now switched to a Nokia memory card.
It came in official Nokia packaging, however there's no markings on the memory card or included adaptor that it's made by (or for) Nokia. Having looked online I can see there are other examples of this.
I did wonder if it was genuine!
However it works much much better with my phone.
The Security Module Error has completely gone, it very occasionally does the random reboot on startup, and gives a 'memory full' error, but I think this may be due to an issue with Ovi Maps and the amount of music I have on there.
I will try (another) full reset just to make sure but otherwise the phone's now working well.

E60 memory card problem

Hello everybody have a good day,
I got an problem...
I did a hard reset on my E60 everything went well.
But when i now turn on the phone the phone tries to install a program at startup but fails, and tries to install again at next start up.
When I go to the Manager applications (found under Tools) I see 1 SIS file that is not installed. Now I want to remove this file but I can't delete the SIS file in this Manager (the delete option is not present/available). Installing the SIS file wont work either it fails again.
Next I tried to format the SD card but I get the message "Unable to format. Memory card in Use by another application"
How do I get rid of this SIS file / installtion failure?
Please help thanks in advantage.
Sincerly,

The only way that I have found to resolve this issue it to use a memory card reader on a PC. Formatting the card works but a less drastic option is to just write down the name of the "offending" file, usually some alpha-numeric.sis file. You can then search for this file name using the PC and delete just this file. I've had to do this several times and it works fine.

N72 MMC MEMORY CARD PROBLEM AND PHONE PROBLEM

hello people i have a weird problem with my memory card and my cell N72.the music player is not opening sometimes because an error message is popping up saying '" not enough memory to perform operation" but i have 35 mb of free memory. i can play the songs from file manager.also sometimes the songs menu does open from music player but i cant trace the songs which i recently added a few days back though they can b played from file manager.Also in the playlists which i have created there are duplicate copies of some songs and the songs which i added recently added are missing. Also after removing my memory card i cannot send or recieve messages because error messeage pops up saying "not enough phone memory delete some data first to perform operation".this is really **bleep** me off as i can virtually do nothin with dis phone except callin people.Is it possible 2 get rid of this problem.if yes ,how?do i need 2 format my cell and my memory card.pls suggest a good antivirus software for this cell as i dont have one.any help will be highly appreciated.

1st, you do not need any anti-virus as that is not the symptom of a phone having a virus... press the menu button and dont let go, untill another "window" pops out (the one that look like the ying-yang symbol is the menu button) with this you will see if there is any application thatg is running in the background and is eating up your precious memory...
2nd, try just to turn OFF your phone and then ON again, i.e. reboot...
3rd, as mentioned by the other guy, save your data and try a factory reset
do also some search here, there many very detailed instructions here and allover the net... goggle can be your best friend...

VIXIA HF G30 Power and Memory Card Problems

While taking video with my G30 using MP4 at the 35Mbps rate in Sports mode, I have encountered two problems.
First, it will sometimes stop recording and say that the memory card is not fast enough. I'm using a 64GB PNY Elite Performance SDXC UHS-1 Class 10 90MB/sec card that is plenty fast and should work fine.
Second, I've had the camera freeze up while recording. When this happens, the red "operation" indicator on the screen starts to flash and I am unable to stop recording. Sometimes, after I stop recording, it will not start again. In one case, I had to turn the camera off to get it back to normal. In another case, even turning the camera switch off did nothing, as the camera stayed on but would not respond. I had to remove the battery to get it to turn off.
Canon's response was as follows:
"I believe the memory card may be the cause of this issue. The PNY Elite Performance memory card, while fast enough, also incorporates the UHS-1 standard, which is not supported by this camcorder. I recommend trying a second memory card without the UHS-1 designation."
However, I checked the Canon list of tested memory cards, and many of them use the UHS-1 standard, so that does not sound like a valid issue.
Has anyone else had similar issues?

Update. I bought and used the Sandisk Extreme 32GB cards (45 MB/s) that are recommended by Canon. Unfortunately, I still received some memory save errors due to inadequate speed, although they have been much less frequent. So, the memory card is probably the likely cause for this issue.
However, I also still had the camera freeze up on me again, which required me to remove the battery. So, I returned the camera and ordered a replacement because I didn't want to find out later that I just happened to get a clunker. The new camera also gave me a couple of memory save errors with the Sandisk memory cards. Eventually, this camera also froze up on me, so apparently this issue may be a more widespread problem with the camera software, not a specific problem with the hardware.
I'm pretty sure that every time it froze up I was using the 3 second pre-record feature. I really like the feature since it ensures that I will not miss any action even if I start the camera later than I should. However, if this is causing the problem, I will have to live without it. I have since used the camera for about six hours worth of video recording with no further problems.
I would recommend that Canon do some more testing, because I suspect that something in the pre-record function is causing intermittent problems. I will provide any updates if it happens again, but I am reluctant to try the pre-record feature again.
