Acer 5920 does not work with sandisc 1gb memory card

My reader will not read mine either. I use a usb key card reader. It used to read the regular old SD cards but the new HC card format wont work. This is due to UDF differences. You can try to reformat the card but then your camera or device may not recognize it anymore. good luck

make sure your'e mobile can map a 1GB. If not try another brand.

A couple things you might try.. remove the card carefully and check the position of the "lock" tab. Make sure it is fully in the unlocked position - not locked or a point between the two positions. Reinsert and try again.

It sounds lie you're using a card reader to download the pictures - try formatting the card while in the card reader via computer. The card should be completely empty when the format is complete. You can even try copying files to and from the card to make sure its ok and format again. When complete, try again in camera.

If the problem persists, check to make sure the card is on Nikon approved memory card list for use with the Coolpix L1 (provided below):

I hope this helps!

I had a look and it seems 1GB is about the Maximum? yes Sandisk is a good brand. Frankly anything that works well is OK.
Buy a good brand of card ... SanDisk is my favorite.
Kodak would certainly be a good choice too.
Don't buy it on eBay, as there are too many counterfeit cards available on eBay.

A Tip:
If you use a card reader, you will need a SDHC card reader if you use a SDHC card.
Most older card readers can not read a SDHC card.

Tip number 2:
Always format a new card with the Camera before taking any pictures.
You will find how to format with the camera in the camera User Manual.

Are you using this 1GB card on your phone or camera?

Try to use the card into another phone or camera, this will allow you if there's a problem with the card or with the card slot.

If the card works on another device, try inserting a known working card into your phone or camera.

Do not forget to check the supported card capacity of your device.

Good luck and have a good evening!

Have you tried formatting the card in the camera first?

take the card to asda and ask if you plug it into there memory reader where they print photos to see if it opens.if it does it is your reader at fault.

connect to card reader then to computer and take my computer, right click on the memory card icon , select format
