A digital camera's Format command is used to prepare a removeable CompactFlash memory card to accept digital image information from the camera. A card should be formatted when: * the card is new and has never been used before. * the card was used in a different camera or other device that accepts CompactFlash cards. * the card has become "corrupted" and will not store additional images.

I have a finepix S602Z and when i turn it on it comes up as card error this happens on different cards any ideas on how to correct this please
I suggest you take the batteries out and wait two minutes and reinsert them. Making sure that they are inserted correctly. If this doesn't work, try replacing the batteries with new ones.

If you formatted the memory card using your computer, or deleted images using your computer, you now need to Format the card with the CAMERA. One of the camera menus will have a Format command.
This is what FujiFilmUSA.com has to say about the Card Error:

When you recieve a "Card Error" or "Card Not Initialized" message, this indicates that your memory may be temporarily corrupted. This can be due to not formatting your memory card on a consistent basis. Most consumers will use the "delete all" feature and continue to take pictures. By doing this, the file format of the card may become unstable.

We recommend formatting your memory card in your camera after saving the images from your previous shooting session. Once a memory card is formatted, the images will not be recoverable.

Card not initialized
You could try to format the card, either by:-

1.) In the camera, Format by using the menus and options like e.g. Review> Setup> Format

or if that fails:-

2.) Format by inserting the card into the PC or using a card reader.
Then right click on the memory card's icon in the 'My Computer' window to bring up the format option, then format the card again in the camera itself to ensure compatibility.

p.44 explains how to erase images, but there is no undelete command on the menus, so I think it's too late to retrieve your photographs.

How do I format an XD Oympus picture card
You need to format it inside your camera. You can look through the menus until you find the formatt command, but instructions are in the camera's manual. If you have lost the instruction manual, you can find it on Canon's website.
