The A520 uses SD cards. SD cards max out at 2GB in size. A microSD card in an adapter looks exactly like a SD card to the camera, and microSD cards also max out at 2GB. Anything larger is a SDHC or microSDHC card. While they will fit into the slot, they are electronically incompatible and will not work. So, the short answer is: 2GB.

I insert memory card in to my touch t-mobile but not supported say format memory card what shall i do right now?

Hi Teddy.
Regarding the issue you have with the memory card & the error message showing on the phone. It could be that the memory card you're using is not compatible with the phone model that you have.

Every phone has it's own maximum size of the memory card compatible to it.
E.x. A phone could only support up to 2Gb, but your memory card size is 4Gb.

You could contact your phone manufacturer & ask the maximum size of the memory card allowed for your phone.

If your memory card is compatible with your phone, you could just proceed in formatting the memory card on your phone.
**WARNING**
Formatting the memory card will erase everything saved in it.


Hope that'll help you in some way.
**Please rate my post and/or leave a comment** ...Thanks...

What is the maximum size of micro sd the mp828can support?

microSD cards range up to 2GB in size, and any of them should work in the MP828. Larger cards are actually microSDHC. While they'll fit into the slot they're electronically incompatible.

Garmin 605 edge put in SDS card for mapping garmin has locked screen says keylock is on hold menu button to release have tried this garmin remains locked?

Hello,

Do you mean microSD memory card?
What size is the microSD memory card?
A maximum 4GB microSD memory card should be used.
Does this only happen when the card is installed or does it happen without the card?

You may also want to contact Garmin Support for assistance.

I have a e260 sansa and I'm wondering what is the maxium size of micro sd card that I can install in it. Thanks

The maximum size for microSD cards is 2GB. Any larger cards are actually microSDHC (the HC stands for High Capacity) and won't work in the e200.

Micro SD Capacity

The e260 will not recognize any microSDHC cards. It will only use microSD cards, which are limited to a maximum of 2GB in size.

What kind of a sd card do I need to purchase inorder to expand the memory of my sansa c250

Hello,

It depends on the firmware version of the player,
to determine the capacity and type SD card you can use.
note
player's firmware version can not be interchanged

Look in Settings > System Info for your version:
For 01.xx.xx firmware (c200 version 1) - up to 2GB microSD cards
For 03.xx.xx firmware (c200 version 2) - up to 4GB microSDHC cards
