Media card will not format

I have not been able to format my media card. My phone does recognize it. But will not format for the blackberry pearl 8120 . HELP, I have done everything, and cant get it to format. I know I have the correct disk It is a scandisk 1.0gb Micro SD.

hello,
I strongly advise you to format the memory card with something else than the Blackberry. If you really have to do it from the blackberry, the procedure is here :

  • Media card wont read on phone or PC. "Media card can not be accessed due to fatal errors"

    I've had my blackberry curve 8520 for over a year and never had any problems with the media card until now. I'm unable to look at any pictures, videos or music on my phone as i can not install the media card on my phone. I'm unable to repair it and format it also. The media card will also not be read when I plug it into my laptop with the USB. 
    I definitely know its the media card and not my phone itself as I've tried my brothers media card in my phone and it worked perfectly. When i put my media card in his phone, it did the same thing and came up with the same error.
    Does anyone know how i'll be able to make the media card read in my phone or my pc so I can backup the data as I don't really want to lose it all?
    Any help appreciated,
    Thanks! 

    From what you describe, the data that was on the media card is already gone. If the PC cannot read it and the BB cannot read it, then it has for some reason been fried. I'm sorry for your loss.
    You can try PC-based recovery utilities, but typically with flash memory (as opposed to magnetic memory of hard drives), once the data is gone, it's gone for good. But, you never know...give some of those a try and see what happens. Before you ask, no...I've no guidance for one versus another.
    Good luck!

  • VCast Media Manager Will Not  Download Purchased MP3 Album to PC

    VCast Media Manager Will Not  Download Purchased MP3 Album to my PC, but has deducted the purchase from my account.  Clicking Download Manager tab gives the message "Please sign into the store", even though I am logged in.  
    In the past when this problem occurs Loging out and Login In  to the store has worked and started the download , but not this time.   There is no tab on the Shopping Cart to Log out of Store.  I have tried exiting and restarting VCast Media Manager and also rebooting the system.  I am running VCast Version 1.5.0 Build 1652 which is reported as the latest.  System is meets all requirements Windows XP Pro SP3, Intel Core 2 Duo E6600, 4 GB RAM, Sound Card and Video Card.
    If I need to re-install VCast Media Manager how can the data be saved that determines I am owed a download?
    Thanks.

    I would call customer service and see if they can see an issue on their end...and at least make a note that you never received the download.

  • Windows media player will not work as no DVD driver

    Had to format disk (trojan) & reinstall Windows XP home. Now Windows media player will not work as no DVD Driver, can I download from Toshiba site?

    Hi
    Usually the Windows media Player is not able to play DVD movies IF no plug-ins were installed.
    To watch DVD movies you can use the programs like WinDVD or PowerDVD.
    Such programs were designed especially for the DVD playing!
    But you can also visit the Microsoft website and search for plug-ins for Windows Media player.
    Then you could download and install it to play DVD with WMP
    Best regards

  • Card will not eject

    when ever I shot photos in Jpeg/Raw the card will not eject after import into Aperture. I have also tried it from the finder only but it pops up the message saying I can not eject because Aperture is using the card. very frustrating as the only work around I have found is to quit aperture and the eject or just pull out the card and be faced with the warning message for doing so.

    Hi Ernie
    I have just reformated all my cards and they appear to be ejecting now. Although they do take a few moments before doing so.
    I have also taken more pics imported just the jpegs and it ejected, then imported the matching Raw images and it still ejected. So the formatting may have done the trick. I have not taken any video on the cards as yet as the cards before did contain some video. will do this later to check if they still eject.

  • HT4628 I did the security update on 4-2-13 and now my airport card will not turn on. OS 10.6.8 Intel imac 4,1 core duo. My macbook pro did not have this issue and wifi here is working on that. Is there a setting that was changed? Thank you!

    Airport card will not turn on after security update yesterday. worked normally (for the download of the update) until then. Wifi here works fine with my Macbook Pro right now so the issue is with the card / computer / software not the provider. Did the update change something?
    OS 10.6.8 imac core duo.  The indicator is on the tool bar but is empty.

  • Verizon Media Manager will not start automatically with Windows, even though it is set to do so.

    Verizon Media Manager will not start automatically with Windows, even though it is set to do so.  This started with the latest update.  I see that the desktop icon for Media Manager now has a security shield on it, and it requires UAC confirmation when you start it, which I don't remember the old version doing.
    One thing I noticed, msconfig.exe shows that "C:\Program Files\Verizon\McciTrayApp.exe" is set to start at Windows startup, but the desktop icon used to start Media Manager manually has a target of ""C:\Program Files\Verizon\Verizon Media Manager\Release\Verizon Media Manager.exe" Verizon Media Manager".
    I don't remember what the previous version was, but this one is 9.4.86.  It asked me if I wanted to update it a few days ago, and I said yes.
    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Try setting the startup option to off and then to on again. It looks to be pointing to a wrong location.
    Attached is a partial screen shot of my msconfig setting.

  • IPod will not format.

    Hello. My friend's iPod 3G 30GB will not format. The hard drive failed or something and now when I try to format it (on either a mac or PC) it does not work.
    When I format on the Mac: Goes through as normal, then hangs on the last step (creating partition map)
    When I format on the Windoze: I guess the battery dies right at the end each time because the iPod doesn't get charged from the PC. (USB2 or mini-FW port).
    Is there anything that can be done? His warranty is done so it will cost loads to fix it.

    When I put the iPod into disk mode and plug it in:
    Click initialize and go to Partition tab:
    There is nothing to click delete to. When I change the Volume Scheme to 1 Partition, it just hangs forever while it's Creating Partition Map:
    When I go to the erase tab, it also hangs on the "Creating Partition Map" step (at the very end).

  • Media browser will not load iphoto

    Hi
    My pages media browser will not show my iphoto pics. It shows my files from garageband, but not iphoto. I tried dragging iphoto into the iwork folder and I also downloaded the ilife support 9.0.3 which was recommended in another post,but neither worked. I am able to drag photo folders, but not iphoto files.
    Thanks for your help
    Marcia

    Hi Marcia
    Welcome to the forum.
    Have you moved or renamed any of the iLife or iWork suite? The whole workflow relies on being able to find all the files where they are supposed to be.
    It is best to leave all of these alone.
    You can not drag iPhoto (an application) into the Media Browser.
    You can drag in folders of graphics and it will then browse those. Just be aware it is not actually holding any of the images, just providing links to where they are filed.

    I am starting a new thread because the old one was marked as resolved and it isn't.
    My Windows XP desktop is no longer seeing my BB Storm Media Card. I am getting the error:
    "Device Memory and Media Card are not available because the Mass Storage is currently in use."
    I have followed these directions:
    Options > Memory >
    Media Card Supoport - ON
    Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) - ON
    Mass Storage Mode Support - ON
    Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected - YES
    SAVE
    I have application free pace 8.1 MB
    and the error message:
    "Device Memory and Media Card are not available because the Mass Storage is currently in use."
    The card is there and is seen by my BB Storm. Media > Explore
    I have removed and reinstalled the card.
    On the desktop I have tried Explore as well as Disk Management and nothing shows up for the Media Card although the Blackberry itself is present.
    Please help.
