Fresh SD cards must be formatted before being used. Use the camera's menu options to format the card.

Hey litbit3471,
What you most likely need to do is format the SD card. Directions on how to do this are on page 82 of your camera manual. I have included a link to a PDF download of your camera manual incase you need it. I hope this helps!

Hi!

I wish what I'll be saying will resolve the problem. Unfortunately, your camera can only support up to 1GB of SD card. That's the reason why the 4GB card is not working.


Here's a screenshot of the details regarding your Polaroid camera.


I hope that helps.

Good luck and have a nice day!

It's probably a broken switch inside the camera memory card readed. The memory card readers in cameras have a small switch that detects if the SD card LOCK switch is on. This is a hardware problem, you should give it for a repair - it's not a hard repair - I usually cut off the switch and put a wire so the camera allways thinks that the card is not locked.

Hope this helps!

As you only bought it yesterday, take it back to the vendor and request a demonstration to your satisfaction. This looks like a fault, assuming so, request a replacement under warranty.

Normally, all of these camera's are straight forward to use, except perhaps Casio.
