N82 removed original memory card, now neither are ...

I bought a 4gb memory card, switched it and the N82 didn't recognise it, swapped the original 2gb back and it won't recognise either. I did this while the phone was powered on, I don't think I damaged it because it prompted me to remove the card, then press ok.
EDIT
Now the 4gb works but the 2gb isn't recognised anymore.

format the 2gb and try it again... PLEASE NOTE: you will loose the data.

IPhoto fails, removes device (memory card), images lost memory on card lost

I've just recently began to experience problems with importing pics from my digital cameras' memory cards. I use a GE 24-in-1 USB Card Reader, and I have been using the delete after import feature on iPhone import, with no problems for a year, until just recently. I did browse and note some recommend not to use that feature.
I use 512MB and 2GB Sandisk, Toshiba, (and two new unused) Lexar SD memory cards. I remove the cards from digital cameras (several different models of Kodak, and in two Panasonic PV-GS500 camcorders in picture-taking mode) and use the card reader for importing. I've imported into iPhoto this way for a year, likely having done so 400 times or more with no problems. I've just been lucky?
But during import recently, iPhoto import stopped, and I got the device removed without being unloaded properly warning. The iMac hung, and I had to force quit iPhoto. Yep, I lost about all the images that had imported, both in the iPhoto library, as well as on the memory card--about 600 of the 900 images on the 2GB card. I started over, without the delete after import option selected, and was able to complete the download of the remaining images. I closed iPhoto, and used Finder to select and move to trash the images on the card, to clear the card and free up all the memory for the next use. But I noted that the memory available was incorrect, showing only 658.1MB instead of what I think a 2GB should show--1.87GB.
Something similar has happened again. During import (not having the delete after import option selected), import stopped, and I got the device remove warning again. No images were saved in Library, but all the images remained on the card, so I started over and did complete the import of all the images from the card, and they were properly saved in Library. I used Finder to move to trash to clear the card. But again noted that the memory card now only shows 704.7MB available, not the 1.87GB that it should.
Yes, I read today the recommendations evidently not to do the process in this manner, so I'm sure one suggestion will be for me not to use the delete after import option, and I guess I'm not supposed to use Finder to move to trash to delete the images from the card. But I note I've done it this way for a year, even using the delete after import option with no problems--until the past two weeks. And also I've allowed all the auto updates, one recently for iPhoto, as I recall, so maybe one of the updates is now part of the experience I'm having.
So is the recommended procedure to only import with the memory card in the device (camera or camcorder), and only to delete the images using the device? I can, of course, but the way I had been doing it was far more convenient, and seemed appropriate use of the software and options.
Also, is there anyway to format the cards so the complete memory is available? Related to that, I'm beginning to think I shouldn't randomly use the cards in the five devices I use (cameras and camcorders)? Until now this hasn't been a problem either. I've been randomly using the cards, devices, and card reader, again, for over a year....
To be fair, maybe I just haven't recognized the problem when it first started recently, as I just viewed the memory on all the cards, and now see that some of the 512MB cards are only showing like 179MB, 336.4MB, and 483.4MB--is the last volume what's normally available for a 512MB card?
I seldom use the 512MB cards in the camcorders, but haven't specifically avoided doing that, other than for the reason that when capturing images in the camcorders, I usually capture 500-900 images at a time, thus needing the 2GB cards to handle that. But I've often used the 2GB cards in the digital cameras randomly.....
Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated!

Hi, OC. In addition to Terence's fine suggestions, let me point out (in case it isn't obvious) that after dragging images from your cards to the Trash, you must empty the Trash to recover the space the pictures occupied on the card. If you don't empty the trash, the pictures are still on the card, taking up the same space they did before you moved them.
But I'll repeat the oft-repeated recommendation not to delete anything from a memory card using your Mac. There are too many ways doing that can go pear-shaped. Erase or reformat each card each time you reinsert it in any of your cameras or other devices. The commands are there, somewhere in the cameras' menu systems.

I had a brand new Mac book pro one month old and the hard drive died. Right before it died I was down loading pictures off a memory card and now they aren't on my memory card! They are wedding pictures I took for a friend and irreplaceable! Please help!!

I had a one month old Mac book pro and the hard drive fried! I was down loading a friends wedding pictures when it stopped working and started heating up. I plugged it in and turned it off as it was making a clicking noise. When I turned it back on the was a grey box with a question mark and nothing else. When I took my memory card out the pictures were gone. I took it back to best buy where I bought it and they said it was dead, needed a new hard drive and all my info is lost! Is there any way to get back those irreplaceable wedding pictures?

There are some data recovery programs (software). I would look into that for the images on the card. When files are deleted, the files are still there, just the headers are removed. That being said, a format of the card or new files written to the card can overwrite deleted files.
The physical hard drive could be thousands of dollars to forensically save, with no guarantee.

G5 won't read my new memory cards now?

Ok, so after going through a whole mess of getting the wrong memory cards (see this post: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8321578), I ordered new ones (which fit in just fine), but now that I've inserted them, the computer isn't recognizing them.
Yes, I've got them all the way in so the latches close, fitting into the slots on the side of the card, and they look as far in as the ones that were already in the system. Yes, I installed a pair, label side up. And yes, I followed Apple's online manual about putting the first sets in the slots marked 1, and now this is my first set for a pair of (outside) slots marked 2.
I've done and checked all this, but still when I check my Memory in the system profiler, the slots come up as empty.
I also tried resetting the NV-Ram by doing that apple/option/o/f thing, since I saw it suggested in another threadin this forum. Still the same issue. Am I missing some obvious step (I did follow the online manual) or any ideas of what could be wrong?

I'd bet you bought high-density ram. The G5 cannot use high-density ram so if that is the case you will have to exchange it for low-density ram which can be somewhat hard to find these days.
The best bet is to buy from a company that lists/sells RAM by computer model rather than memory speed/type.

My pc will not show my memory card/removable disk

Hi.
My first MP3 player, I chose Creative Zen 4 gig, I have added an 8 gig sd card the problem I have discovered is that my PC does not list the card as a removable disc as stated in the manual therefore I cannot add files to it.
Some advice pleas.
regards
Brian

Hello NewUser2,
Welcome to Creative forums!
You still need to put the device in Removable disk mode. Here's how to do it:
In the main menu, select Memory Card.
Select Removable Disk.
Connect your player to your computer using the supplied USB cable. Your memory card appears as a removable disk under My Computer in Windows Explorer.
Use the drag-and-drop method in Windows Explorer to copy files to and from your memory card.
When you have finished copying files, safely disconnect your player using the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the Taskbar.
Warning!
DO NOT disconnect your player, or attempt to remove the memory card, when files are being transferred. Disconnect the player only when file transfer is complete.
Notes
When you select Removable Disk, you view the contents of your memory card only, not the contents of your player. Playback stops when you select Removable Disk.

Approved method of removing memory card from reader

In the past, I have just removed the memory card from the reader when I was finished with it, but I have since read that that is not good practice. The method mentioned in my book is "Click the tiny Eject button next to the card's name in the Source list, and then remove the card from the reader". The problem with that is that I have no such Eject button in my Source list, and no card name appears there, either. First of all, is it wrong to just remove the memory card without any preliminaries? Second, what do you do when there is no Eject button and no card name?

<but there is a link reading "CANON,,,DC>
what do you mean by "link"?
<....icons for 12 files appears>
are the 12 files =12photos or 12 folders?
if you see the photos, (usually DSC000143.jpg or similar) then create an empty folder on the desktop and drag & drop theses 12 photos on the empty folder. And that's it you now have uploaded the pics from card to computer.
Eject the card reader, drag to trash.
Then you can launch iPhoto.
Drag & drop that empty folder over iPhoto et vloia all your pics are imported to iPhoto.
You can now delete the empty folder to the trash.
or it's up to you where you want to put them. In iPhoto or anywhere else.
and that's it!

Formating N82 Memory Card

Hi guys,
I installed an app (MovingBall_Example.sisx) on my N82 onto the memory card. The app installed two file. the MovingBall app as well as a RDAccelerometer.dll file. This app designed for the N95's but i thought it will work fine on the N82.
On the first run of the app, it opened and ran for awhile then crashed. i restarted the phone and it hung on the nokia's white screen for ages. I then restarted it a again after removing the battery, but no luck. It will only work if the memory card is removed.
I've had a look on the card, and it seems that some folders and files are corrupted. I have made a copy of the memory card and want to reformat it. What format should i reformat it to and what folders can i safely put back?
I've got the following folders :
-cities -- (Navigation folder)
-Images,videos,sounds,other (Default storage)
-Resource
-Sys
The corrupt files are in sys\uninstall...is it safe to delete items from this folder?
Also, should I touch the sisregistery folder at all?
If I remove all traces the MovingBall_0xE14A45B8.exe & RDAccelerometer.dll from the \bin & \resource will it be okay?
Thanks
H

Hi Hempiz,
If i were you its best to format the entire card and not just deleting certain files.
If its corrupt and you leave files on there the problems will probably still remain or return.
Its worth biting the bullet and formatting the whole card.
My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.
If my posts are helpful, please give me some KUDOS using the green star on the left.

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.

Lost videos after pushing "command z" and memory card already removed.

I recently copied some videos from an SD Card using the built in card reader on my 2009 iMac. After copying the videos to a folder on the computer, I removed the memory card and formated/erased it in the camera. Upon returning to my computer (memory card still removed) I accidently pressed "command z" with the current Finder window still active and the videos disapeared. I was wondering if the videos are lost forever, or is there some location that they could still be found at? Thanks

Turn off phone before removing memory card N95

i have removed the memory card many times to plug into the computer. but last time i did it, i plugged it into the computer and it told be it needed formatting. I tried putting it back into the phone and everything had gone!
This is just advice so you dont have to go through the same problem. Ever since i have turned the phone off first and i also click on eject before removing the card from the computer, everything has been fine so far.

that's a good advice, since the PC have a feature that says you can safely remove the mem card/usb flash!
removing w/o this procedure can corrupt directory of mem card.
Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!

Remote lock & Memory card corrupted issue

Remote lock & Memory card corrupted issue
Hi Dear Friends,
You might have experienced the "Memory card corrupted issue."
Don't panic! The solution is here!
Your memory card is just 'locked', it isn't 'corrupted'!
For sure, this post would be of great help to you, if:
• You have enabled the "Remote lock" feature of your Nokia device.
• You have sent the remote lock message to your device and locked it remotely.
Finding the solution really took me a lot of time. I was inspired by various posts on the Discussion, and decided to find the official notes on the issue. So would like to thank those who shared their tips, and helped us solve this problem.
I'm using E66, (you might use something else), and would refer to E51's and E65's User guide so often.
Of course, I'm not going to explain the instructions, and recommend you to refer to your user guides when needed.
On the contrary, I'm going to explain what may not be mentioned in your user guides.
Let’s Begin
What Has Happened:
In short, you attempted to test the feature, your phone was locked, you keyed in the lock code, code was accepted, you used the phone for a while, switched it off, powered it on, you were prompted the Lock code, you keyed in the lock code, code was accepted, you attempted to view some stuff that was on your memory card, you didn't find it, you tried to run a program that was installed on your memory card, the program icon didn't open, you put the memory card in the card reader and connected it to PC, it was not detected, you went to Menu> Tools> Memory card> You saw "Memory card corrupted"!
Don't, don't select the Yes selection key if you got the caution message, "Memory Card corrupted, reformat it?" because your memory card isn't corrupted, it's simply being locked!
But you can't find the unlock memory card command in Menu> Tools> Memory card> Options.
So? What to DO?
1. (This step is optional) Disable the Remote lock feature.
(Refer to your user guides) and change Allow Remote Lock> to no.
Then, while the unit is on,
2. Press the power key briefly, and select Remove memory card.
3. Remove the memory card from the slot.
4. Press OK if prompted.
5. Reinsert the memory card in the slot.
6. Reopen Menu> Tools> Memory card.
Is your memory card detected? If yes!
7. Follow tips number 2 & 3 of What to Know section below.
Did you get "Password removed" message?
If no, be careful of the case of the first character.
If you had changed the Remote lock message many times, use the one that was practically sent to the device via text message.
. In case you had set a password on your memory card before, you may also attempt to unlock the locked memory using your own password, not the first eight characters of the remote lock message.
Step seven would make the memory card detectable to the connected card reader to the PC too.
8. The memory card is detected temporarily, but it is locked and the "memory card corrupted" issue reappears every time you switch off/on the phone, unless you successfully complete step seven.
What to Know?
Official User guide Tips:
1. Remote locking also locks your memory card. (E51 page100)
. Yes, the one mobile phone that sends your device the predefined remote locking message, receives the confirmation message in response, indicating, "Mobile telephone and memory card are locked". But it isn't written in E66's and E65's.
2. To unlock the memory card, select Menu> Tools> Memory> Options> Remove password, and "enter the remote locking message as the password". (E51 page100)
. Yes, quite clear, but the quoted part ("enter the remote locking message as the password") isn't written on my E66's User guide, and there's a vague precaution on E65's, (refer to number 4).
3. If the message is longer than 8 characters, the first 8 characters are used as the memory card password. (E51 page100)
. Yes, quite clear good E51, but I don't own you; I have E66 your little sister. I owe my memory card's survival to nice users on the Discussion.
4. The maximum number of characters allowed is 8. Using more than 8 characters could prevent unlocking the memory card and require reformatting it. If reformatting the memory card is required, all information on the card will be lost. (E65 page28)
. Quite interesting, but it contradicts what good E51 says in number three¡!
. And it contradicts my own experience of the issue (and some other users' on the Discussion) too, since my E66's memory card accepted the 'first eight characters' of the 'ten-character long’ remote lock message that I had previously used to remote lock it.
. The first three tips are quite important and shouldn't have been excluded from E66's and E65's user guides. I don't have the time to download and review all the user guides that support this feature, but at least I read some user manuals and also got the impression (from the posts on the discussion) that there had been not enough information on E66's, E65's, E71's, N96's, and some others.
You may like to do a simple search on Google:
"The first 8 characters are used as the memory card password" site:nokia.com
Since the content of the user guides on the server seem not be searchable for any reason, you won't find any official support result except those of the good users on the Discussions. And the 'Nokia Site Search" brings no result too. (At least on the date of this post).
¡ Terribly sorry for those who have selected Yes to the Reformat caution message. It wasn't your fault. But there's an idiom that says, sleep on it! "Think about it for a while before coming up with a decision".
But now that you have tested the feature and know its solution, don't be afraid, and enable the Remote lock feature again! God forbid, but it may be needed one day!
Yours,

Dear, I guess, / This article doesn't suit your case. / • You have not enabled the "Remote lock" feature of your Nokia device. / • You have not locked your device remotely. / Because you don't know where the remote lock is and haven't played with its settings. / You need to explain what has happened. / The only thing we get is that your memory card doesn't open. / 1. your phone model, e.g., 5130. / 2. What did you do recently that might have caused this issue? / 3. What methods did you try to unlock it? / Use some of the tips provided above. (except number 1). / Yours

Iphoto doesn't read my memory card

Hi! I just switched to a mac so i don't really know my ways yet.
anyway, i was importing pictures to iphoto from a memory card using a USB memory card reader, then all of the sudden when i closed Iphoto and opened it again, my memory card can no longer be read.I tried my other CF and Memory sticks but with no luck.
I did eject the memory card properly. there was this one time though that i forgot to eject it and removed the memory card.
what do i do now? help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First lets get those photo off the card by dragging them to a folder on the desktop and import from there. Next delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, reformat the card with the camera, take a couple of test shots and try again. See if that helps.
If the time you forgot to eject the card correctly was that last time you used the card then reformatting it with the camera should fix it.
For what its' worth I recommend uploading from a card reader to a folder on the desktop first. This assures that the files get safely on the hard drive before any other action is started. Then reformat the card for the next shoot using the camera. If you name that folder to describe what the photos are about the Event will also have that name. I also sequentially batch rename the files with the date of the shoot and a brief description.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Nokia 5800 missing personal files on memory card

Good day everyone!
I have a problem with my new nokia 5800. A month ago, i lost some of my pictures, which are saved in my memory card. I just ignore it thinking that somebody from my frends just deleted it. After a week, all of the videos, which i took, were all missing.. I was so **bleep** of. A while ago, an application that i downloaded from the net was also lost.. Im so frustrated about this.. Please kindly help me on this one.
Your response is highly appreciated. (n_n)

this seems to be a problem of a common virus as the 5800 is generally doing well except for some performance hogs.
@chan chan, there is absolutely no use when you use a PC antivirus to kill a 5800 symbian's virus. there are s60 antivirus out there, but i recommend you do a hard-reset of your phone by holding
"green" + "red" + "camera key"(full press) all simultaenously while powering on the device.do not leave the power key also till u see "NOKIA" on the screen.before doing this, remove the memory card from the phone and format it on the PC.after the phone starts factory-fresh, insert the formatted card.it should work fine now.also update to the latest v31 firmware.
remember to backup your contacts and other phone-memory data as hard reset wipes-clean all data, but do not use the "backup phone" option as it uses memory card.better sync contacts with other phone or PC
It's not always about KUDOS, but to make people happy with their Nokia. get the most of your Nokia.And be happy with what u get ......yet, please dont forget to press KUDOS if my post helped to solve your problem kudos=Rep++
