ERR99 is a default error code in the Rebel.

There are a number of things you can try...

Remove your battery and the memory card and let it sit for a little bit to reset. Put them back in and check it then.

Also try cleaning your lens contact points,(the gold metal contacts on the lens and the camera body) with a clean pencil eraser.

If you can, try testing another lens with your camera, that often works, which may mean it is a contact point or lens compatibility error.

Compact flash that i bought wont work san disk 4 g ultra says error 9

USUALLY the ultra and high density flash cards have trouble working in most music equipment.

Only buy the cards up to 2 Gb and verify compatibility with one of them before buying more.

San Disk 2GB is saying it's full when it still has plenty of room

I didn't understand you weren't using it for photography. Here some more suggestions:

* Double check the SD card's Write Protection Switch to make sure it is unlocked.
* If your card reader is old it may need to be replaced. See if the card works properly in your camera. If you hook your camera to your MAC with its USB cable you should be able to upload and download files.

Windows was unable to format my flash disk

It seems that the card is bad. Try to format the card on a different machine to rule out your Windows formatter.

Card can not be formatted

There is a write protect switch on the side of the card. That may be the reason why the comp is unable to use it.

Nikon D70, displaying error code 'CHA' when memory card inserted. Unable to format or use memory card. Have tried new memory card, still same problem.

CHA errors indicate a communication issue with the CF card. Your card could be going bad, you could have a broken pin, or any number of other problems.

I'm running into this same problem now. If anyone has a good step-by-step to troubleshoot which of the dozen things this error could be, I'd appreciate it.

For myself, I'm planning to start by trying a new CF card.
