I cannot format the sandisk Ultra on my Kodak easy share camera. [email protected]

Format card in your computer first, using FAT 32 then try again in camera

With no card in the camera, go into the menu and find "format" and follow the on-screen instructions to erase the internal memory. After that, your card should work properly.

Some older Kodak Easy Share cameras cannot use the SDHC cards. HC stands for, "High Capacity." This means that the capacity of the card is too big for the camera to deal with. Check your user manual to see what cards are compatible with the camera. You may have to stick with plain SD cards from now on.
If the camera does support SDHC cards, you can try formatting the card on your computer first and then inserting the card into the camera. If the card still does not work, the card may be faulty and you should try to get it exchanged or refunded and pick out a new one.
To format an SD card on your computer:
1. Insert the card into a card reader (like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Mini-Memory-Card-Reader-Writer/dp/B000FNDWLQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1299296903&sr=8-1 2. Go to "My Computer," and right click on the card. 3. Select format.
On a Mac:
1. Follow step one above. 2. Go to Applications > Disk Utility 3. Select the card from the list on the left and click "Erase" at the top of the right-hand side 4. Click erase at the bottom left corner

That sounds like an SDHC card...make sure your camera can use it.

1. Insert the memory card into the camera. Make sure the card is firmly seated (push in the card until it clicks into place).
2. Turn on the camera.
3. Press the Menu button, then go to the Setup Menu.
4. Scroll up or down to the Format option, then press the OK button.
5. Follow the prompts to format the memory card.

I had a look and it seems 1GB is about the Maximum? yes Sandisk is a good brand. Frankly anything that works well is OK.
Buy a good brand of card ... SanDisk is my favorite.
Kodak would certainly be a good choice too.
Don't buy it on eBay, as there are too many counterfeit cards available on eBay.

A Tip:
If you use a card reader, you will need a SDHC card reader if you use a SDHC card.
Most older card readers can not read a SDHC card.

Tip number 2:
Always format a new card with the Camera before taking any pictures.
You will find how to format with the camera in the camera User Manual.

agreeing with fixer1950. This model is in fact just designed for up to 2GB SD or MMC card.

When Easyshare one was released, 4gb SDHC was not yet created. You will always get the "memory card requires formatting" (looping until you get a file sys error msg) if you will keep on trying to use the 4gb.

To perform a clean installation of the KODAK All-in-One Printer Home Center Software:

1. If a USB 2.0 cable is connected to your printer, disconnect it.
   IMPORTANT: Do not reconnect the USB 2.0 cable until instructed to do so during installation of the software.
   
   
2. Install the KODAK All-in-One Printer Software, either from CD, if you have the latest version of software, or by downloading from the Kodak Web site, www.kodak.com/go/aiodownloads, free of charge.
   

Hey hardygurl198,
What is most likely going on is you need to format the card so it will work in your camera. Every time you get a new memory card for a digital camera or if you put a memory card formatted to a different camera in a new digital camera you will need to format the memory card before you can use it. Directions on how to format your memory card are on page 27 of your camera manual, and I have provided a link to a PDF download of your manual in case you need it. I hope this helps!
