Blocked Memory card!!

My memory card is blocked and I don't know the password, I can't find any helplines with Nokia to help me redeem this problem, it would be much appreciated if anyone could answer to my problem as soon possbile.

I suspect the card is toast, if you don't have/remember the password. If it was easy to overcome, it'd be a pretty useless security feature.

Problem formatting memory cards when running Parallels Desktop... help?

I've had the following scenario and can't figure out how to fix it. Emailed Parallels but waiting for a response. Any thoughts?
I tried selecting a Sandisk Imagemate card reader as a USB device to connect with the guest OS of Windows XP Pro. I opened the DOS window and tried running a command (that I know FOR SURE is the correct command and works perfectly for others with stand-alone Windows XP Pro computer) that would reformat my SD memory card to FAT32 in 32k clusters. When the operation seems to be completing, Parallels shuts down the host OS and I'm left back at the screen where I can choose to restart or modify the virtual machine settings!!! The iMac will not recognize the card at this point because it doesn't recognize FAT32 formatted devices. When I restart Windows XP Pro, the OS says that the card is not formatted and won't read it UNLESS I FORMAT IT! But, I just did try to format it?!?!? This happened 4 times in a row before I realized there's a problem here. My colleagues at work have done this with their Windows XP Pro machines without incident. Can you tell me why it's not working in Windows that is running through Parallels?
iMac Intel Mac OS X (10.4.6) 2GHz, 2GB RAM, 500GB HD, 256MB Video

Unlike BootCamp, Parallels does disk input/output
through the OSX drivers because it it dealing with
files on the Mac formatted disk. Because the card is
treated as a disk this may be blocking the
formatting. You should be able to format it with
OSX's Disk Utility. OSX does handle FAT32.
OSX does handle FAT32 disks, but Disk Utility formats them as FAT16.

Problem with 5300 and 2 GB memory card

Hi,
I just bought 5300 phone and 2 gb micro sd card, sandisk.
And I am now storing music files to the card via usb connection and phone is shown to pc as a disk.
It transfers 990 MB of music and after that is says card is full.
From gallery it shows memory card as 2 gb card, and full status is 990 MB, free fine also. I tried transfer also with music manager same result. Like the 1 gb is the limit somehow.
Is it ?

I also have problems with my new Kingston 2GB micro SD card on Nokia 5300. However quite different. I uploaded appr. 1.5 GB music and it worked fine. Then I switched the phone off. When I tried to switch it on again the screen started to flash and after 15 sec the phone switched off itself. It took for a while till I discovered that the problem somehow relates to the memory card. When it was removed the phone worked fine (no flashing, no switch off). I reformatted the memory card and everything worked fine till the next switch off. Then it started again. I updated the software (V 04.70), but it didn't help. I'm not 100% sure but it seems to me that the problem relates to the music player which tries to update the music library after the switch off and somehow it freezes the phone.
Any idea how to solve this?
In short because I don't have a 5300 - No ...
However - something to try is to see if your card works without problems on a PC (via USB card reader) or laptop (some have memory card slots built in)
Lastly on Nokia's 5300 webpage it states that they only recommend using authorised cards ... it might be worth seeing if you experience the same issue with Nokia's own 2Gb microSD card ?

How can I get Verizon to return my memory card- There screw up

After screaming about 1x a week with this new pre-paid SAMSUNG phone, I finally was able to get the store to take the phone and replace it. Sadly, I was so frustrated with Verizon for my phone never working, and getting the run around, that I was glad to get the "we will get you a new one".
Wasn't happy that they can't just give me a new one off the wall. (that would be 50 bucks please. (phone was 30 days old).
SO, The guy behind the counter advised me, I would get a new one. Took battery, I asked if things were backed up, and he said "yes", the backup synch was set up. "like OK".
So, removed battery and the lid, and the case I bought for it, took my old phone and said wait for new one. (came in today).
I didn't even think of getting my 8GB memory card from the old phone at the time I left the store.
This was 3 days ago (26th of Dec). Today, my new phone came in, it was not synching, not doing the backup right, and then I realized my memory card was not there.
Nicely called the help desk thinking I was calling the store where i returned the phone. NOPE, got tech support in a different state after 14 minutes of listening to switch witch and running around with button pushing. Just to be told "contact the store diectly".
Headed to store, advised of what happened, and the cheerful guy with hte IPAD, typing your name, pretty much said " to bad". It's goneft
No help. Just me trying to stay calm, after the head-aches with this phone. And now I am out an 8GB memory card, that Verizon, in their haste, never took time to remove (but did the battery), and I forgot to remove it myself.
Now, I want Verizon to replace the memory card. Their phone was bad, every week complained about this phone, and in 30 days, I now had to get it replaced.
I take error in not remembering to get it. BUT, figured the techs behind the scenes would have thought of this.
Anyone know of whom I can contact to ask VZN for a new card? I lost some vital pics and info from my realtor, and have to bite that, but this wouldn't have happened, if I could have gotten some satisfactory service, and I still ended up 3 days without a phone.

I admit, I did screw up for not checking. I was just soo steamed with the customer support and going back and forth with phone and offices in Charleston, SC and here in VA, I was just getting frustrated with this phone that i had for 1 week, and couple with the craziness of the hustle trafflc of customers during the holidays.
Just a lot of crazy here, but my new phone is in, I had to get the service center to reset things, as the backup synch wasn't right, and I will get a new card.
I just wanted a new phone that worked, and oversaw the issues. This isn't the first time I had to return a phone, but last time, it was a slower pace, and no issues, and I reminded myself to get the card out.
Got 99% of my contacts. Just wishing there was somehow to track the phone, and have hope, but it was nothing that was life critical.. And cost of new cars is cheap.
Chalk up to "pay attention".... but oh, the frustration of 6 visits to the stores in 32 days I had that phone. Ahh!
Happy New Year, and thanks for the replies....

Not able to Delete the data from Memory card

Hi all,
I have bought a new nokia 3120 classic.it is working fine but recently i have received some data from my friend.
Then suddenly the problem begins like.. when i take a photo.. i am getting error like the image is not in the format and i am not able to save that.And also, the main problem is I am unable to delete the data from my memory card.
Every time after deleting i am getting the same data.
Why this happening..is it because of VIRUS?? If so how to delete the virus from my memory card??
When i contacted the nokia care people in bangalore they are saying that they can offer the service of formatting the memory card??
Except that my Phone is working fine..the problem is with Memory card!!!
Please help me...

you can actually format your memory card first see if you have such option on your phone to format directly from the phone if that is not possible you can always use a card reader and reformat your card using your pc. just understand that all data from that memory card will be lost unless you do a back up of it. if you do a back up and restore the data to the memory card after reformat you might get the same issue so be careful as to what you will decide to do with the data from the card. once you format your card it should all be good unless the card is corrupted itself which can also happen. but first try with the reformat and see if it works out for you.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

Memory issues - kernel panics / system freezes with 1Gb Memory Card

I've recently updated my PowerBook OS to 10.4.7 and now more recently 10.4.8.
Prior to this, i had been running a pair of pc2700 memory cards (1x1Gb + 1x 512Mb) bought from crucial technology on 10.3.9 with no problems.
During the upgrade, i experienced complete system lock ups and kernel panics. pulling the 1Gb card resolved the problem.
So i thought it could be duff memory (it happens). I ran hardware checker, both long and short tests, ran memchecker from single user and there was no reported errors although i was still getting crashes.
I returned the memory to crucial and they replaced it and then i went to reinstall memory in the pb.
Once reinstalled, problems re-emerged. Both System profiler and iStat pro show both memory sticks as ok. both are pc2700 DDR.
i tried just the 1 Gb stick in alternate memory slots. with the memory in the lower slot i was getting system freezes, in the top slot i was getting kernel panics.
I've pulled the 1Gb and reverted to 768Mb (512Mb lower (crucial)/ 256MB (apple) upper) and i'm back to normal.
Now what?
As my mac is getting on, i'd like to get as much RAM in it as i can, ideally the 1.5Gb /2Gb which it can support. I'd be suprised if it could be the memory stick being duff (2 duff in a row?), its not a faulty memory slot as system profiler is showing that its full.
Any suggestions? Anything to do with how 10.4.8 handles the memory addressing?
Any help would be appreciated.
PowerBook G4 1Ghz FW800 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I've had that problem, too. I found out that it was one of my memory modules that were broken.
I'd say pop back in your other memory module, then get out your PowerBook DVD and stick it in Restart your PowerBook while holding down the Option Key on your keyboard until some buttons start to show up on your screen.
Select the Hardware Test one, then click the Arrow button. It'll boot into a utility and you can run a hardware test that includes checking your memory.
If any of your memory is bad, it'll show up like "**ERROR ERROR**" and give you a code.
After you've identified the hardware problem (hopefully just the RAM), then you can go to Crucial's website and fill out an RMA request to have the memory replaced. I'm pretty sure Crucial has a life-time warranty on their memory products.

I cannot erase alias JPeg images on a memory card so that it will not accept any more which I try to load onto it, yet there are no actual images available if I click on any of them. The error message states that one or more cannot

Cannot delete aliases for JPeg images on a lumix camera memory card even selecting individual images anjd trying to move to trash -error35 one or more items cannot be found. No image available on clicking or if card put back into camera-"no images to disply" Yet if try to add more images, message that card is full! Any suggestions?

Deleting from iPhoto or image capture after import should be fine and shouldn't cause any issues. Deleting from the folder view of finder, can cause issues as the camera can the image is still there. You can try emptying the trash on your mac if you deleted them via the finder, as although you've deleted it, it's only marked as trashed and not actually deleted until you empty the trash - ie it won't relieve the space taken by the files.
If your still having issues after you try this, you may be best formating the memory card. This will wipe all data on it though, so make sure you do copy anything off that yo u want to keep! Format from the camera, so that choosing the format>erase all option from the menu of most cameras.

Camcorder video error: "Unable to record. Resolution not supported by memory card."

We purchased two Samsung Droid Charges the first day they were released and recently they've both been getting this error after 8-15 seconds of recording in HD (1280x720): "Warning: Unable to record. Resolution not supported by memory card."
Called Verizon tech support, but they referred me to Samsung. Not knowing much about micro SDHC cards, I was alarmed to discover that the factory pre-installed 32gb card is only rated class 2 for speed. Samsung told me you need a minimum of speed class 4 or higher to record at this resolution. The only problem is you need an SD card installed in order to use the camcorder, period. In other words, all of us who payed an arm and a leg for the best phone Verizon sells now have to go buy our own micro sd card that actually supports all of the phone features as advertised?! The lowest prices I've seen for the faster cards are $70. Are we the only two Charge owners experiencing this problem? I've read somewhere that lower speed class cards may initially support faster speeds than they are rated until they accumulate more files, so the problem may go undetected for some time until you have more files that are stored in different locations on the card (making them difficult to access at the faster speeds). This may explain why are the first ones to get this error since we've had the phones the longest and only 50% free space remaining on the SD card. Oh, Samsung also said they won't be able to replace your card for one that has the proper speed rating. Kind of seems like false advertising to say a feature is available (HD camcorder), and then not mention the fact that the memory card provided isn't sufficient for that feature (separate upgrade required). Anyone else sharing the same frustrations? Ideas?

Thanks for the response. I've tried everything on that page. It's not an issue with the cable, or firewire port or the cable being connected properly, as the iSight camera works fine with iChat. I've disconnected the only other firewire device on the computer, didn't make any difference. Camera works fine in iChat, so it's not the camera itself. And, as I mentioned in the post, the same camera, if hooked up to my laptop, works just fine recording in QuickTime. So, it appears to be an issue with the QuickTime installation on this computer. I've done a search for the same error I'm getting and found some other occurrences with the same problems, but none that offered a solution.

Image browser "memory card utility" downloading to wrong date folder

Mac OSX 10.7, Image Browser 6.9.0.3 (9L)
I own 5Dmarkii and 60D. When I insert memory card, Memory Card Utility (1.7.0.0.9L) launches. I select Download, and program transfers to my computer. No fancy settings, just standard.
Both cameras date setting is correct, and image efix data is correct for date and time shot. Computer system date and time correct.
Pictures taken prior to 5:00pm are filed in a folder with previous days date. Photos after 5:00pm are filed in correct days folder.
Driving me nuts..... Help please

I'm having the same issue. The Canon software behaves as though it catagorizes the photos (and names them, based on the way I'm importing them) based upon what day it was/is in England (I think it uses GMT when making the date classification)
For me, it is also usually an annoyance, but sometimes it's more frustrating. If I want my files named by date, correctly, then I have to re-name all the photos taken after 4:00 pm (16:00).
Yes, my camera (7D) and computer (MacBook Pro) have their date and time settings correct. (I tried changing the time zone my camera was set to to see if it changed the problem, and it didn't. The Canon software is mis-placing the photos based on the date.)
I might try this workflow on a Windows machine, and see if it persists.
Anyone have any ideas?

How do i format a memory card on my mac?

I don't get a choice to format the sd card (actually via an adapter I plug into the USB port that holds various memory cards) - not sure if formating the sd card would actually eliminate the virus, but thought I'd try... The card is infected with a "conficker" virus, which Sophos can't remove. I have eliminated all the files, and there still is like 55 unviewable files.

Disk Utility. The same way you format any type drive on a Mac.

I have an iPod G2 with a firewire 400 lead. how can I attach it to my new 13 inch Mac book Pro, is there a 400 to 800 firewire converter. USB lead wont work with the Macbook Pro. iPod used as an external drive to archive memory cards on the go.

My G2 iPod that I use as an external drive to archive memory cards on the go cannot link with my new 13" Macbook Pro cause it uses a firewire 400 lead. It will not work with a USB lead. Is there a firewire 800 ipod lead or converter available? Can any one shed some light on this please?

As far as I know, if a harddrive works with a Macpro, it should work with the Macbook: if your Macbook is low on power, plug in the AC adapter
If your Macbook has a firewire port, then it should be fine. BUt i would do somemore research first.

How do I download /export my iPhotos to a memory card on my camera?

I am trying to "organize" my camera memory cards, which I want use as a back up rather than just using external or USB drives. I can not find how to Export photos to a new memory card in my camera.
The reason I want to do this is because when I've saved on a USB or External Drive, the photos are zipped, & then when I uploaded back to my mac (when I needed to get a new one), the dpi & KB is really low (270 x 360 & 54 KB compared to over 2000 x 1500 & 255 KB for recent photos!)
The iPhoto help manuals & Apple site helps don't address this exporting, only how to export to Email & the web.
I was told by someone USB & ED's "don't change the size" (it does zip them) & to increase the dpi & KB on those, just "double click" on each photo in the iPhoto app - didn't work! So any other better / real ideas how to increase the dpi/KB would be more than welcome, as I can't print any of my older photos, the size is too small!
Mille Grazie, Gracias, Merci, Danka

Still the answer since Canon Camera's will not mount to the desktop
I am trying to "organize" my camera memory cards, which I want use as a back up rather than just using external or USB drives.
Why? memory cards are not very reliable - using Time Machine and an external hard drive is a MUCH better way to backup - I run TM so I have hourly backups - do a daily bootable clone - ane I never have iPhoto delete my photos when I import them so I have the originals too - and if you really want a backup on your memory card this is the way to have one - do not delete when importing
The reason I want to do this is because when I've saved on a USB or External Drive, the photos are zipped, & then when I uploaded back to my mac (when I needed to get a new one), the dpi & KB is really low (270 x 360 & 54 KB compared to over 2000 x 1500 & 255 KB for recent photos!)
This is user error - not in any way a function of backing up to an external Drive - a properly done backup and restore gives you exactly what you had whe you did the backup - that is the whole purpose of a backup - and it works perfectly if done correctly
I was told by someone USB & ED's "don't change the size" (it does zip them) & to increase the dpi & KB on those, just "double click" on each photo in the iPhoto app - didn't work! So any other better / real ideas how to increase the dpi/KB would be more than welcome, as I can't print any of my older photos, the size is too small
this is a very cofussed set of statements
1 - no backup "changes the size" of the photos - the entire purpose of a backup is to have an exact copy available in case of problems
2 - Most backups do not zip photos - some do - zipping does not change the content when you unzip
3 - DPI is not an atribute of a photo - it is a mathmatical caculation - dots (pixels) divided by inches - you do not have DPI until you have inches (either a display or a print)
4 - the only way to "change" DPI is ot change inches - for a given photo the only way DPI can be increased is by printing a smaller photo - decreasing inches
5 - the KB of a photo is not material - the only things that is interesting is the pixel dimensions - and you can not make them larger
Basically you are chasing the wrong things - buy an external drive formatted Mac OS extended that is 2 1/2 times the size of your main drive and run Time Mahcine all the time with its default settings

HP Envy Touchsmart 15-J104sa Memory Card Reader not working

I took delivery of an HP Envy Touchsmart 15-J104sa running Windows 8.1 this week and the internal memory card reader isn't working. It doesn't recognise any SD cards (I've tried more than one) and continues as if nothing has been inserted; showing no error messages. All of the cards work on my previous HP laptop. The only way to get the laptop to show an inserted SD card is to run the driver update software (http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp63001-63500/sp63415.exe) every time an SD card is inserted; this must be done with the card in the reader. If the software is run and then the card is inserted nothing happens. If the card is ejected and then re-inserted (or a new card inserted) it isn't recognised and the process has to be restarted and the driver reinstalled even though nothing has changed.
Can somebody please help me with this issue or I will have to return the laptop to HP. I do a lot of photography so being able to read an SD card quickly and reliably is extremely important for me; it's not a problem I expected from a brand new laptop straight out of the box.
Thank you all.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Unfortunately non of the driver updates solved the problem but a BIOS update through the HP Support application seems to have remedied the issue. Whilst I appreciate there were no specific drivers available I find it hard to accept that HP should be able to release a model where they know the hardware will not be fully supported by the OS and in this case not function.

How do you prevent the organizer from mixing the order of pictures when down loading off the memory card?

This sounds like you are using Photoshop Elements, and the Photoshop Elements forum would be best at answering that.
