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!
If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

  • N95(not 8G) KEEPS ASKING TO REMOVE MEMORY CARD

    I bought my N95(not 8G) about 4 months ago(second hand) and about 2 months after I bought it I started getting a message saying ,please remove memory card and press ok.
      It didn't come with a memory card so I fitted one from my old Nokia 6110(1gig) .Anyway I reloaded the N95 software from the nokia website,and this fixed my hassel for about a month,and now the ""remove memory card and press ok"" is back again.
     Also I can access everything on the card with no problems till this happens,then I have to switch the phone off and restart it.
           Any ideas on how to fix this problem would be appreciated
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    found this info on another part of this forum,does it work ???  and as I don't have the original card what can I do ???
    This is a common issue...here how I upgraded my n95 to 8 gig
    insert 8gig sd card into usb reader(thumb drive attachment comes with sandisk 8 gig)
    USE GHOST (disk image software)
    make a disk image of old sd card
    insert 8 gig sd card
    restore image to 8 gig and select the following options
    expand partition to fit drive
    and convert partition to fat32
    This works perfectly and the phone thinks its the old sd card    
    Kudos! Thanks!

    Hi nolimit966
    Although of no help in your present situation, keep this in mind for future reference although you do need a memory card reader. I have always progressed through increasingly larger Sandisk cards (not even formatting) 4,6,8 and now 16GB by just copying contents (enabling Show hidden & System files) of existing memory card to desktop of PC and back to new card without issue.

  • N78 asking to remove memory card

    Hi there, i have bought my N78 just one month ago and find it amazing for almost every aspect except that it has a problem with the memory card. The fist time i turned on the phone, i have no notice that the Nokia microSD 2gb memory card was inserted as there wasn't any icon in the screen. So as i removed it and put it back in, the card was recognized but after a while the phone showed me a message asking to "remove memory card and press ok".
    I replaced the original Nokia card with a Sandisk card and still have the same problem, which is quite annoying because it is a brand new phone and i can't count with the memory card to store any information because after a while the card icon dissapears of the screen and it is like i have no memory card inserted in the phone.
    Any clue?? Thank you

    There were a few similar issues with cards in other phones in the past - I thought Nokia had ironed these out, but maybe with the N78 still being quite new ..
    I guess the most common issue was that the card wasn't formatted correctly. The way around is to format the card in the phone.
    Another issue was that the firmware wasn't designed to work with larger volume cards. I'd be very surprised if this was the issue as 2GB cards have been around for ages, however it might be worth checking if you have the latest firmware. To do this you need to use the "Update phone software" option in PC Suite. This will install a newer version of the firmware is there is one available.
    If neither of these helps, I guess you could try a factory reset. Not sure how that would help, but you never know.
    NB: be sure and backup (and preferably synch) your phone before you attempt to update firmware or reset the phone as both of these erase everything in phone memory.
    Have to say, the N78 I used didn't have any problems with it's 2GB card. It was SIM-free, though and SIM-free phones tend to be a lot less problem-prone than network-specific phones.

  • Turn off phone calls, keep text capability on.

    Does anyone know if it's possible to turn off phone calls, but keep your text messaging capability on? We are travelling internationally and texting is a lot cheaper.

    Texting is a portion of the cellular service, and I am not aware of a way to remove one without the other. While you can turn off texting, if you were to turn off cellular service, then texting would be turned off as well. You can turn off cellular data and roaming, and that would turn the cellular off, but then you could still use iMessage via Wi-fi, however if any of your friends are non-iPhone users, you would not be able to get messages from them.

    Import the music and photos from the memory card with your computer and place the music in your iTunes library.
    Place the photos in a folder to be designated for transfer to your iPhone.
    Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes to transfer this music and any other music in your iTunes library and select Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes selecting the folder where these photos are located followed by a sync.

    Try plugging it up to your computer and launching iTunes and either resetting it to factory settings or resetting to last sync. Hopefully it just noticing it's plugged up to iTunes will fix it. This happened to my friend once and all she had to do was plug it into her computer and that fixed it.

  • Can you turn off phone calls and texts??

    I am traveling to Buenos Aires from the United States for a minimester.. I called my cellular carrier and they do not have a plan to save me money in regards to phone calls and texts. I have the app What'sApp so I can use a data plan they offered me to keep in contact while I am way, however I am still afraid of racking up charges in texts and phone calls. Is there any possible way to turn off phone calls and text and strictly use the data plan they have given me?
    I have the iPhone 5. Thank you.

    FYI, that won't work. AirPlane disables all radio communications.
    The best way to do this is to divert all calls.
    Go to Settings
    Phone
    call forwarding and switch to O
    Type in your carriers default voicemail number. Because it is the default number for voicemail is an exception in their list you won't be charged for the diversion.
    remember to switch this off when you get back.
    Then go to messages turn off send as SMS and MMS.
    That should avoid most of the charges. Its inevitable that you'll get some but hopefully if you're careful it will be minimal.
    Have you thought of using a local sim while you're there, you're iMessage will still work and your home SIM and account will be inactive so you won't get any unforseen chardges?
    Good luck

  • 5800 self remove memory card

    Hi, i am facing a problem where memory card (8gb) are self removed randomly. It had to be remove from phone and insert back to be detected again or sometime just simply restart the phone to make it work again. It's quite hard to point out the problem to nokia care because the problem occured is unpredicted. Plz advice.
    firmware v20
    RM 356

    try another memory card and see if you experience similar issues. you might have programs that are corrupted and hence make it impossible to use the card correctly, the card itself might be corrupted. you might want to also consider reformating your card. make sure you back up all your data.
