PNY 4GB microSD High Capacity Mobile Media Kit - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Most likely i.m.o. your 4Gb card is a SDHC card. Only a few 4 Gb cards are made as SD in the beginning after they crossed the 2 Gb line. You can't buy them anymore. So to use a 4 Gb ore more, you need a SDHC or better a SDXC reader.

Insert your USB drive in the appropriate USB slot in your computer. If the Autoplay dialog box appears, select "Take No Action" and click the "OK" button. Launch your anti-virus program, such as AVG Antivirus or Anti Malware. Select the USB drive for the program to scan. Click the "Start Scan" button or option. Open the scan history for the USB drive when the scan is complete to see a list of viruses and warnings identified by the antivirus software. If desired, select the options to "Heal All Infected Files" or "Move the Infected Files to the Virus Vault" to ensure these files are quarantined from your system. Highlight each infected file in the scan history. Write down the file name of each infected file identified on the USB drive. Minimize the application's window. Select "Run" from the Windows "Start" menu. In the Run window, type "e:/" at the command prompt to switch to your USB drive (or type the drive letter for your USB drive). Press the Enter key. Type "attrib -s -h -r -a *.*" at the command prompt to remove the system, hidden, read-only and archive file attributes. Press the Enter key. Type "del ####.+++" where "####" is the file name of the infected file and "+++" is the file extension, at the command prompt line. Press the Enter key. For example, "del terriblevirus.exe" will specifically delete the Terrible Virus executable file. Repeat for each infected file on your list identified in Step 4. Close the command prompt window; that is, exit the Run utility. Maximize the window for your anti-virus program (which is still open) and repeat Steps 2 to 7 until no virus is detected on your USB drive. Exit the anti-virus application. or Click start click on my computer you should see your usb drive right click then select format. another way is to control panel administrative tools computer management disk management Right Click on your drive select format Hope this helps

The adapter does not work. Not the micro SD.Get other Adapter and it will work. I did.

It sounds like you have not formatted the memory card. To do this:

1. Plug the flash card/drive into computer
2. Open my computer and locate the drive. Should be removable disk by default.
3. Right click and go to format.
4. select the fat32 format which should be default already and click start at the bottom of the popup box.
5. When its done try testing it by moving small files back and forth.

ALSO NOTE: Some memory cards have physicall write/read locks on the bottom of the card. Check this.

Solution overview: You need to "clean" the SD card by using the clean command in Diskpart and then format the card in Disk Management. This solution will show you how to accomplish this.

1. Plug the SD Card into the computer.

2. Press Win+R to open the Run command.
3. Type "cmd" into the dialog box and press enter to open a command prompt.

4. Type "Diskpart" into the command line of the command prompt to start Diskpart. Wait for Diskpart to load.
5. Type "List Disk" and press enter.
6. Take note of the number of the disk that's associated with your SD card.
7. Type "Select Disk X" where X = the number of the disk that's associated with your SD card and press enter. Make sure the command prompt reports that Disk X is selected.
8. Type "Clean" or "Clean all" and press enter. Clean will be faster but might not solve your problem. If using the clean command doesn't solve your problem, then repeat steps 1-8 and type "Clean all".
9. Wait for Diskpart to complete the cleaning operation - this may take some time so wait until it's completed!
10. Close command prompt.

11. Press Win+R to open the Run command.
12. Type "DISKMGMT.MSC" into the dialog box and press enter. Wait for Disk Manager to load.

13. In Disk Manager, scroll down and select the SD Card.
14. Right click and select "New Simple Volume".
15. Select Next, Assign Drive Letter, and select "Next" again.
16. Select "FAT32" for File System and "Default" for Allocation Unit Size. Fill in whatever you want for the Volume Label. Make sure "Perform quick format" is checked and click OK.
17. Wait for formatting to complete and remove SD card from computer.

18. Plug SD card into camera to see if the problem is solved.

Good luck and thanks for using FixYa. Post back if you have any questions or problems.

Hi,

The problem might be that the card is password protected, i recommend you switch it to the unlocked position and then use a computer to format the memory card and do a full format not the quick format.

hope this helped.

The laptop may not be able to read High Capacity MicroSD.

ok the first thing to do is find out is , is it the phone or the memory card, so try another memory card. with a bit of luck it will be the card that is unstable. if its not the try updating the the firmware on your phone but do it using the pc suite that maches your phone and backup your entire phone contacts pics etc to your computer. now dowload and install the update usually the pc suite will do this for you. i hope that helps.

Most SD memory cards have a small slide switch on the edge off the card. This switch is used to write protect the data on the SD card - you can lock or unlock the SD card be sliding this switch.

hello there are two way u can do that, get a usb card reader and follow any of this process


1. put the micro sd card into the card reader and plug it to your computer then your system will see the card automatically, then open your window media player and the player will detect the card and you will synchronise musics from your windows media player libery to the card.

2. you can copy the music direct from your music folder in your computer and paste it on the micro sd card.

take care

THIS WILL MAKE YOU LOOSE ALL FILES!!!
(even password)
Take the memorycard out of the phone and,
put it in a computer.Use filesystem FAT-32
to reformat your memorycard.
Now the card will work again!
No password, No files will be left after a
complete reformat
This is your solution! Please vote!

I think the maximum size card you can use in the power shot is a 1Gb card unless nes firmware has been istalled to allow 2Gb card.
Using large capacity cards also delays the write recovery time. So if you are trying to capture moving objects , often you get one shot and then it takes almost 20 seconds to recover for the next pic. Too late for most things that move

hope this was of some help

Take the card back to the retail store, and get a replacement for this "defective" card.

Or, get a technician at the retail store demonstrate that he/she can read the card.

it's a fake..

if you click start then my computer the memory card should show up as a removable device double click on the device and your pictures will be diplayed .
This only works if you have the m/c inserted into a card reader

When the flash memory device appears to malfunction it maybe possible to restore it by reformatting it. Insert the flash drive into the USB port then Click on Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management.
Then right click on Disk 1 removable drive and click Format. After the flash drive has been formatted it will indicate that it is Healthy.

Then right click on Disk 1 removable drive and click Format. After the flash drive has been formatted it will indicate that it is Health

What file are you trying to download?
Instead of "clicking" on the hyperlink to start the download,
click the SECOND (usually the RIGHT) mouse-button,
and choose 'Copy Target'.
Start NOTEPAD (or MS Word).
Click "Edit" and click "Paste".
What is the text that now is visible?

try scandisk and safe removal option, re-insert and try again

Well I found that these older card readers will not read the 4g sdhc format. In your case you found a 4 gig card that can be read (your sisters) Bring your's back to the store and get an exchange for the brand your sister has, let them know this. The knowledge for them is good. They most alway accomadate just to keep the customer happy.
