Camileo X400 wont recognise SD card

I bought an X400 yesterday form Argos (UK) and it will not recognise that I've put an SD card in it. I have 2 x 2GB SD cards. One is Sandisk and one is Toshiba. I had already ordered a newer 16GB card which is on the way but if it doesn't work I'll be taking it back for a refund and buying a different brand.
Could anyone shed any light as to why it doesn't recognise it?
On a side note..I found it very frustrating that the description says 'One touch Youtube upload' when it is anything but. You have to install software and I assume plug your camera into the PC to upload :/

I am having the exact same problem. I purchased the Camileo X400 on-line through JB Hi-Fi for my wife to take overseas at the end of this week. As it only has a fairly small hard-drive (128mb), I purchased 2 x 16GB Sandisk Class 10 Fast SD Cards. I put one in and started to record. The "memory full" message came up after around 45 seconds. I then started to hunt for some sort of switch, either physical or on the touch-screen that would swap my recording over to the SD card. Couldn't find anything. The "user manual" is next to usless. Our son has a small non-descript generic HD Camcorder that he bought at some flea-market somewhere, so we put the SD card in that, and it worked perfectly. I took the Toshiba camera and the SD card to our local JB Hi-Fi store for some advice. The customer service officer said that the particular SD card I had was "too slow" for this camera, and that I should return the SD cards to where I purchased them from and ask for the "Ultra" or "Extreme" cards, as they are "faster". That sounded ok to me. I thought that seeing the "Fast" cards worked in our son's camera, he might as well use them, so I purchased another 2 x 16GB "Extreme" SD cards from JB Hi-Fi. Took them home, and guess what? Exactly the same message. I tried to contact Toshiba Support, but they have nothing for Camcorder owners. I don't know whether I have a dud camera or not. I will have to now return to the JB Hi-Fi store I got the "Extreme" SD cards from and go through the whole exercise again. At this rate I think my wife is going to have to take our son's little generic camera, and hope for the best. Very disappointing.

    The ziio has issues recognizing the class 4 sd card. I had that issue earlier and send in my ziio and microsd card for testing. When I got my card back, the cso acknowledged that there is an issue and the firmware team is currently looking at a fix for this issue. Hopefully the fix is made available soon in the next update

  • [ PROBLEM ] Audio Control app wont recognise card properly

    Hi
    I have a X-Fi ExtremeGamer card in my Win 7 home premium setup and am struggling to set it up properly.
    Long story short , I pulled out the X-Fi card and tried the onboard audio as I was getting an issue with the audio playing around using the creative drivers ( volume changes mid song, positional audio in games was often unusal ).
    The Realtek stuff wasnt too bad but I wanted to try my X-Fi card again, it is suppose to be better after all.
    Anyways...
    I disabled the onboard audio , safe mode and cleaned all the realtek drivers out and any lingering creative drivers with Driver Sweeper, used CCleaner to clean up the reg and rebooted.
    Installed the BETA drivers from creative and the audio works fine, but when I try use the crystaliser or other SB features the app complains
    " The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit. "
    I installed Daniel_K's drivers from a CD ISO he put out a while back, and the applications worked fine but the audio dropped in and out, so I downloaded the official creative drivers for my card and OS, and the application worked fine again but as with Daniels drivers the audio dropped in and out so I reverted to the beta drivers... and the audio dropped in and out as well.
    I worked it out to being the volume controls on the creative 5. speakers , which every set of speakers I have bought from creative have had the same issue, the volume slider on the cable... after some use it messes up the audio and it becomes safer just to adjust the volume in the software.
    After deciding the issue was with the volume slider on the cable, I wanted to re-install Daniel_K's driver pack so I could access the other features, now it suddenly doesnt recognise the device anymore, nore does the official none beta drivers from creative, nor does the latest PAX drivers ... all report the same issue:
    " The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit. "?
    I am starting to tear my hair out here, the audio works and the card is recognised in the Device Manager as 'Creative SB X-Fi' , I have clean the drivers , the registery , used the patch that fixes a bug where the update wouldnt recognise cards properly , re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re installed the drivers.... carefully EACH time.
    I triple checked I was downloading the Win 7 64bit OS ver of the X-Fi ExtremeGamer drivers.
    What now ?
    ALSO Who thought it was a bright idea to put up the volume to 87% when you install drivers ? It also unmutes the volume if you mute it before restart, and it puts the volume back up to 87% if you dare to lower the volume before rebooting the PC to complete the install.
    ( NOTE: It only does this after the initial reboot to complete the install, subsequent re-boots leaves the volume alone )

    I give up...
    I sent a form to the tech guys , detailing the problem and outlining the steps I took to fix the issue...and they direct me to http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowA...aspx?sid=55438?, oh I can use Device Manager to uninstall , oh and Control Panel - Programs to unistall the Creative stuff ( note: I am being very sarcastic here ).
    This is the information I sent the tech:
    Detailed Problem Description:
    Creative audio application does not recognise SB X-Fi card , card audio functions just cant control the feature set. Error msg : " The audio device supported by this application is not detected. The application will exit. " Suspect nVidia installing of HD audio drivers causing 4 (four) additional High Definition Audio Devices to appear in the device manager screen. Unable to uninstall these devices as Win7 auto re-reinstalls with generic MS drivers, can only disable. Creative SB X-Fi card listed in audio devices as 2 - SB X-Fi. Suspect the audio control application looks in the first slot and doesnt recognise the device and fails, doesnt look at the 2 ( second slot ? ) Tried a full uninstall including going to safe mode and removing drivers with Driver Sweeper, CCLeaner to clear out registry entries and removed the card, booted to windows without the card , re-seated the card and re-installed the drivers.

    Thank you
    and this is the advice I got ...
    Thank you for contacting Creative Labs.
    To avoid installing the incorrect driver on your soundcard, we suggest that you do a full uninstallation using the guidelines, steps provided in our website. Shutdown your PC then take out the card and make sure to place it on another slot. Second, disable your onboard audio and if your graphic card comes with any audio support as well, disable this feature.

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

    have you tried connecting to other computers to see if it's detected there to verifcy that the conector is not damaged and causing the device not to be recognized by the computer?

  • NEW MACBOOK AIR WONT RECOGNISE AIRPORT

    I have a new MacBook Air - have spent 7 hours trying to get it to recognise and link to my AIRPORT and still no joy . I have my old MACBOOK PRO linked up, no problems ,and I have mirrored all the settings but  the new one  still cant find the AIRPORT and on the odd occasion that it does , it eventually times out .
    Have re-set the AIRPORT and done everything that the Apple Tech Man advised but nothing doing - feel like throwing the stupid thing out of the window .
    Also, it wont recognise my external hard drive so all the back ups that I have made, cant be transferred to my new machine.
    The whole point of having two machines was to make sure I was never left in a position like I was the other week with a broken hard drive and no way of runnimg my business but I have been unable to do any work for over two weeks - Apple Support non existant .
    So any ideas would be very welcome . Thanks

    As no one replied I would just say that I now know that you dont need McAfee security on a MAC - if you do , AIRPORT and your MacBook wont connect using AIRPORT TIME CAPSULE so dont let the store you buy your MAC from sell you MCAFEE  - its not needed

  • I was told to uninstall then reinstall itunes because "no apple application support"so i did, now wont recognise my iphone and says to uninstall itunes and instll the 64-bit version of itunes so i did again,and again,and again.still wont work pls help me?

    I was told to uninstall then reinstall itunes because "no apple application support", so i did, now it wont recognise my iphone and says to unistall+install the 64-bit version of itunes so i did, again..and again..still nothing please help me?!

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
