Look at your memory card. SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card.

To clear the card completely, format it. In fact, memory cards should be formatted each time you finish downloading the pictures. This prevents the fragmentation that occurs if the pictures are deleted individually.

Since you didn't specify the make and model of your camera, I can't give you specific instructions on how to format the card. It's probably somewhere in the camera's setup menu.

Two things to try: 1. Go into the camera menu and find "reset" to get the camera back to factory default settings. 2. With the new card installed, go into the menu and find "format"...follow the on-screen instructions. If the new card now works, you will probably need to do the same with the old card but download the pictures first using a card reader if necessary because formatting will completely erase it.

Hi Anna,

You need to either download and delete or just delete some of the pictures on your camera in order to make room to store new pictures

Basically you need to delete some pictures or move them off the camera or memory card. If you use your usb able and softwarethat came with the camera it should move them over and store them on your pc or laptop and then you will have free space.

If you don't copy/move them off then your options are to delete the pictures or change the memory card with a empty one. A new memory card should give you enough room for thousands more pictures if you buy a big capacity card. You will want to check your user manual as to the type of card to get.

Something SIMILAR happened with my Samsung S85. Your situation sounds different in that you say you can view a limited number of images (on the camera?).
I my case it had pictures on the camera, that I had deleted after down loading, from the computer interface window. They did not show up on the computer interface window when I downloaded other pictures. Eventually the camera filled up with pictures but there were none on the computer interface window.
I had to go back and delete the pictures from the camera itself - one by one.

Each time you execute finalization, the disc remaining space will decrease by approximately 13 MB. If you don’t have enough room, it won’t allow you to finalize the disc.
To finalize this disc, you have to delete some pictures to make enough space. But don’t worry, before you delete those pictures, you can save them to your computer.
Find out the CDs came with your camera, refer your manual page 51 - 61 to install ‘PIXELA PTP Manager’ , connect your camera and computer with USB cable, and copy some pictures to your computer, then delete the pictures on camera side. If still not enough room, copy more and delete more. make it enough to do the finalization.

Well that should not happen unless you your iPhone has to many pics. Delete one picture and tell me if you can take one more if you cant even when you have deleted one tell me.
Thank you, Apple Care Technical Support

use a recover program...like the one used to recover data from formated dvds..and use it on your memory card,inserted into a card reader..I dont suggest you to use it in the camera
and you can do the same with moving pictures..use the copy/paste option...put them into the card...attention...only D40X made pictures..
good luck;)
