SD card 101: the 2.1 MP cam is not compatible with newer sd cards...get standard SD class 4 or less; SDHD(high def);SDHC(high capacity);and classes above 4 may not work(class 4 SD cards usually have a 4 stamped just under the SD on card's label.

Been there...my bear ripped 4 cameras off trees and destroyed 3 of 4 feeders...repaired feeders...cameras had to be replaced(in bear-proof cases)...water had gotten inside...one SD card had bear's pics.

1) This camera accepts SD cards up to 4 GB in capacity. Most 4 GB SD cards however, are "SDHC" types (check the label to determine which type you are using). If you are using a 4 GB "SDHC" card, it may be causing the problem, as it is not an "SD" card. Furthermore, any card greater than 4 GB is not compatible with the camera. Any SD card with a capacity less than 4 GB should work without issue.

2) Check the position of the lock or "protect" tab on the side of a compatible SD card to be sure it is in the unlock position. The camera will be unable to write to a locked or protected card.
