VIXIA HF G30 Power and Memory Card Problems

While taking video with my G30 using MP4 at the 35Mbps rate in Sports mode, I have encountered two problems.
First, it will sometimes stop recording and say that the memory card is not fast enough. I'm using a 64GB PNY Elite Performance SDXC UHS-1 Class 10 90MB/sec card that is plenty fast and should work fine.
Second, I've had the camera freeze up while recording. When this happens, the red "operation" indicator on the screen starts to flash and I am unable to stop recording. Sometimes, after I stop recording, it will not start again. In one case, I had to turn the camera off to get it back to normal. In another case, even turning the camera switch off did nothing, as the camera stayed on but would not respond. I had to remove the battery to get it to turn off.
Canon's response was as follows:
"I believe the memory card may be the cause of this issue. The PNY Elite Performance memory card, while fast enough, also incorporates the UHS-1 standard, which is not supported by this camcorder. I recommend trying a second memory card without the UHS-1 designation."
However, I checked the Canon list of tested memory cards, and many of them use the UHS-1 standard, so that does not sound like a valid issue.
Has anyone else had similar issues?

Update. I bought and used the Sandisk Extreme 32GB cards (45 MB/s) that are recommended by Canon. Unfortunately, I still received some memory save errors due to inadequate speed, although they have been much less frequent. So, the memory card is probably the likely cause for this issue.
However, I also still had the camera freeze up on me again, which required me to remove the battery. So, I returned the camera and ordered a replacement because I didn't want to find out later that I just happened to get a clunker. The new camera also gave me a couple of memory save errors with the Sandisk memory cards. Eventually, this camera also froze up on me, so apparently this issue may be a more widespread problem with the camera software, not a specific problem with the hardware.
I'm pretty sure that every time it froze up I was using the 3 second pre-record feature. I really like the feature since it ensures that I will not miss any action even if I start the camera later than I should. However, if this is causing the problem, I will have to live without it. I have since used the camera for about six hours worth of video recording with no further problems.
I would recommend that Canon do some more testing, because I suspect that something in the pre-record function is causing intermittent problems. I will provide any updates if it happens again, but I am reluctant to try the pre-record feature again.

USB ports and memory card slots not working

My Pavilion a6120n desktop has worked brilliantly ever since I purchased it. As of last week the 2 usb ports in the front and the 2 unused usb ports in the back have stopped working. My printer is plugged into one rear port and my wireless mouse is plugged into a second rear port and these work fine. I generally use a memory stick for data swapping or the card reader slots (which have also stopped working). I no longer see the memory card icons in the "Computer" window. When installing something new the "New Hardware Found" statement pops up but the driver install always fails. I think it is a software issue but there are no usb drivers to download on the HP/support site that I can find. . . so . . . Below is what I have tried so far.Run antivirus software. Full scan & memory scan - no issuesRun malewarebytes full scan - no issues I have tried restarting several times with no success. Restore to several previous restore points = failedRestarting computer in repair mode = failedRun the repair disk that I had made = failedChecked the power management for each usb port to see if the power was routed properly = okRemoved the case cover and carefully inspected the wiring and connectors.finally I tried uninstalling the usb drivers = failed Upon restarting the computer the last time the startup file must have failed and after several hours of attempting a repair I had to reinstall the Window 7 completely. Still no usb or memory card function. Any help would be appreciated Thanks,MrBob38

N72 MMC MEMORY CARD PROBLEM AND PHONE PROBLEM

hello people i have a weird problem with my memory card and my cell N72.the music player is not opening sometimes because an error message is popping up saying '" not enough memory to perform operation" but i have 35 mb of free memory. i can play the songs from file manager.also sometimes the songs menu does open from music player but i cant trace the songs which i recently added a few days back though they can b played from file manager.Also in the playlists which i have created there are duplicate copies of some songs and the songs which i added recently added are missing. Also after removing my memory card i cannot send or recieve messages because error messeage pops up saying "not enough phone memory delete some data first to perform operation".this is really **bleep** me off as i can virtually do nothin with dis phone except callin people.Is it possible 2 get rid of this problem.if yes ,how?do i need 2 format my cell and my memory card.pls suggest a good antivirus software for this cell as i dont have one.any help will be highly appreciated.

1st, you do not need any anti-virus as that is not the symptom of a phone having a virus... press the menu button and dont let go, untill another "window" pops out (the one that look like the ying-yang symbol is the menu button) with this you will see if there is any application thatg is running in the background and is eating up your precious memory...
2nd, try just to turn OFF your phone and then ON again, i.e. reboot...
3rd, as mentioned by the other guy, save your data and try a factory reset
do also some search here, there many very detailed instructions here and allover the net... goggle can be your best friend...

For some reason even when you did not add a password to your memory card, sometimes your phone after a factory reset, may ask you for a password for your memory card. There is a way around this. Go to SETTINGS à SECURITY à REMOTE LOCK and add a new codeword for locking your phone eg “lockthis” and put in your lock CODE (default is 12345). When this is done, use your lock codeword “lockthis” as the password for the memory card and you should be able to get into your memory card again. ATTENTION!!!!!! The codeword must have maximum 7 characters!!!! IT REALLY WORKS!!!!! 100%

HOW TO FIX 5610XM Memory Card problem

Without long introduction I just want to say how to do that, because it is annoying that you just can't use memory card
So it's really simple, you have problem with memory card it self OR your back cover.
Back cover has a small plastic thingy witch let's memory card to be readed, If it somehow fails to do it's job, then you have to do it by your self useing something like a isolated wire, to put it in that plastic things place, and then put the back cover on it.
I finally can use my memory card so I am really happy, and I hope this will helps for you as well :]

The newer video cards are plug and play. The only thing that you have to do is install the latest video driver that comes on a DVD with the video card or from the manufacturer's website.
There are two main things to consider when buying a video card:
1. The length of the card. It is important for the card to fit into the space provided and have good airflow.
2. The wattage required to run the card properly.
Because of the age of your computer, I believe that the power supply unit (PSU) is either 250W or 300W. You can find this information by reading the label on it. Most of the newer cards require at least 400W to run properly.
One other concern for buying a new video card is, does it require UEFI in the motherboard instead of a standard BIOS. I know that the last EVGA video card to work with a standard BIOS is the GT 640.
Here is a guide that will help you understand how to replace a video card or other Expansion cards.
If you are not comfortable with working on a computer it would be advisable to find a certified computer repair shop. It will cost you more money, but will save possible problems.

Music Files and Memory Card On N97 mini

I,ve own my N97 mini for about a month now, been serving me well except for this problem...
I created a folder on the E:/ drive for storing musics I transfered via PC Siute but I noticed that I can't seem to find the onces I trasfered via Bluetooth. When I open the music player and refresh, it seems some of the musics are not added to it. When I open the folder I created for musics I see the songs there but when I go back to the music player it ain't there.
What can be done?
I added an 8G memory card to my phone and it's been misbehaving. Problems ranging from slow boot up and opening of applications to this error NOT ENOUGH MEMORY PLEASE DELETE SOME DATA whenever I try to open the music player. I understand that N97 mini can take upto 16G memory card but how come 8G gives it problems?

Why on EARTH are you transferring music by Bluetooth ??? Simply connect the phone to your computer by usb cable in Mass Media mode. The phone will show in 'My Computer' as an external hard drive E. Open it and your music folder will be there. Then drag and drop any music you want FROM your computer TO the 'Music' folder on your phone, safely disconnect the phone from computer, go to music player and refresh music, that's all there is to it !!

N82 Camera & Memory Card Problem

Hello! After two months of careful operation and having the following problem: when you open the shutter of the camera, blinking charging indicator flashes, then a message "unexpected error occurred. Restart the device." Then, the phone does not "see" the memory card (included with delivery). Additional software is not installed. Resetting factory settings did. Memory card in other phones, Nokia tried it - everything is in order. Please define the problem. According to rumors, this is a common problem with this phone. Sin in the xenon flash. With the patience of waiting for a response.

Do a nuclear reset then:
Hold Green button + 3 + *
Turn on the phone
Keep on holding the 3 buttons until the shake hands appear.
Choose your region and that should be done. Your lock code is now should be 12345

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.

N97 and memory card?

well i've got a N97 to try out for a couple of weeks and thought setting it up would be a quick exercise but its not to be. i thought after backing up my n95, all i'd need to do is pop the memory card into the 97 and do a restore, but this didn't seem possible, it seems unable to read the card. does it need formatting so the n97 can read/write to it?
i'm just transfering all my music i have on my card to the phone via windows media player and i'm going to be here hours! (i couldn't figure out how to do it with the nokia software)!
Nexu 5

The card doesn't need to be set up differently. I'm using the card out of my N95 (although admittidly I did format it to keep things nice and clean). I did notice however that the folder structure seems to be the same as on the N95.
Things don't just "restore" themselves however. Music should appear in the Music Player after refreshing your library but applications won't normally re-install themselves - hey it's S60 5th edition on the N97 anyway so not all your S60 3rd edition apps will work now.
There's a good application called "Switch". Have a look on your N95 under Tools -> Utilities.
You can use Switch to copy over all your contacts, messages calendar entries etc. which is what I did when I got my N97 - it works a treat.
If you're still having a problem with music however then try refreshing your music library from within the options in Music Player...
Good luck!

Nokia 6500 Memory card problem

When i try to open my mem card it says Memory Card not formatted; Format mem card ?
after i press yes it says Operation Failed.i tried my mem card on other phone and it worked i also tried other mem card on my phone and i got the same problem... So it's the phone problem
Anyone can help me ?

Well, If there are any updates available for your device (look here: http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update), there could be a slight chance it would work. At least you could try before taking it to a Nokia carepoint. - You could always try to set it back to factory settings too, but I doubt it will be fixed.

6230i memory card problem

I've recently resurrected my old 6230i and begun using it again. However in doing so I've come across a wee problem.....
The big memory card that was supplied with the phone and hidden beneath the battery is only 32Mb - hardly sufficient to use the MP3 Player to any great deal. Looking at it I asserted that it was an SD type card and I went and bought myself a 4Gb one to fit in place of the measly 32Mb effort. Imagine my annoyance when, after buying the new memory card I couldn't get it to fit - it's just slightly too thick. On closer inspection I noted that the card I've bought is actually an SDHC card - but surely that shouldn't make any odds? Would it? Do I need to buy a stricly SD card, without the wee HC ad endum? Or, do I need to buy a smaller capacity memory card, possibly a 1Gb or 2Gb, in the hope that it's of equal thickness to the 32Mb one? Or, knowing my luck, am I just doomed not to get a memory card that fits because in actual fact there isn't one, because Nokia have played a huge trick on the unsuspecting 6230i purchasers????
I await your wisdom dear forum members.
ps......I humbly apologise if this question has already been asked countless times before!!!
Kind Regards,
Paul-D.

The slot in the phone is for an MMC card. It may look like an SD card but not quite the same. Please do check with the card manufacturer for compatibility before buying. The phone is very old and may have compatibility issues with the higher capacity cards nowadays.

Maps App and memory cards

Hi,
The MAPS app, is incapable of finding adresses eventhough I copied said adress from the MAPS app onto my adress book. What is the matter with this app???
Also I can't find a way to calculate an itinirary between two destinations other if one of the two is not necessaraly my PRESENT LOCATION. Is there a way to do it? And I never get multiple itiniraries wich is a problem when I know there is construction work on the most obvious itinirary.
Furthermore, an adress or a phone numbre sent by email or text message is not identified by my phone as such so I cannot click on it to go directly to the MAPS app or the automaticaly dial the phone number.

HOW DO I TRANSFER EXCESS DATA FROM MY BBZ10 MEMORY, TO THE MULTIMEDIA MEMORY CARD I ADDED TO MY BBZ10.
NicolasCleroux, I asked above and you've yet to answer... what is this "excess data" you speak of?
Please, scroll up, read and answer that, and then perhaps we can deal with that... What do you consider "excess" data?

For some, Link is a problem on Mac and Windows. I've had some isues with it on my Win7 PC, but it does work after some fixing of issues in my firewall and proxy settings.

WHEN I SAY "IDENTIFY" I MEAN THAT THE ADRESS OR PHONE NUMBER CANNOT BE CLICKED ON TO ACCESS DIRECTLY THE RELEVANT APP ( PHONE OR MAPS)
Make sure those phone numbers are formatted properly to be recognized as a phone number or address.
For instance, where I am, a phone number formatted as xxx-xxx-xxxx work and is "hot-linked" to dial the number.
Similarly, with an address: 123 Street, city, St, Zip" will create a hot-linked address openable in BlackBerry Maps.
I know in my own Address Book's contacts, i have several linked addresses which open in maps, and you will see them in a highlighted blue text if they are recognized as such.
So, please give an example of how your phone numbers and addresses are formatted?

Facebook and memory card

hello people,...
Facebook app was never my favorite on my BB. It's sluggish, slow, and it simply sucks. Until today,... I've removed my memory card from handheld and voila. Facebook worked GREAT! really fast and as I, and everybody else expect! But the problem is,... When I put back memory card, it gets sluggish again. So my question is, how do I force Facebook app to use only internal memory?
Info:
BB Curve 8520
BB OS v5.0.0.610 (I know it's not official, but every OS prior was showing exact problem with Facebook app)
Carrier: VIPnet
memory card: Default 2GB
I've deleted Facebook app couple of times, deleted cache, removed battery and still same problem with facebook.

By removing your memory card you did force FB to work off internal memory only. To do this dynamically you can go to settings > options > memory > media card support > OFF and see if that works as well.
