How do I format a memory card in this DX7440 kodak camera?

The DX7440 works with MMC and SD cards, which max out at 2GB. While your 4GB SDHC card fits into the slot, it is electronically incompatible and will not work with this camera. You need to stay with SD cards, 2GB and smaller.

Sometimes there(on most SD /MMC cards there is a very little switch on you can LOCK and UNLOCK writing to the card , look on its possition.

Hi,

This sounds like the write protection lock is on. Take the card out of the camera and look on the left hand side for a small switch. slide the switch up and pop it back in the camera and see if it will let you format it.

If the write protect lock is off then the card maybe faulty.



Good luck.

then you may remove the mmc from it and format it through pc

Hi. Kodak DX7440 is using standard SD card or MMC card up to 1GB (some says it will read 2 to 4GB standard SD but I haven't tried). SDHC is high capacity, 4GB above and will not work on your camera.

Can you grab it with tweezers?

Pull the pictures off the card then plug it into the computer if you have a SD card port. Then go into my computer and find the card icon. right click on the card and pick properties. Verify that the card is showing as a 16GB card and how much available memory is available on the card. It should show 16GB. If the card does not try and run a format on the card and see if that fixes it. Five pictures on the highest resoloution on your camera should not fill up a 16GB card. There might be files stored on the card causing the issue or the card might be defective.

Insert your memory card into your computer's reader if you have one. If not, you can purchase a multi-format USB Memory Card reader from Amazon.com or Buy.com

2 Open up 'My Computer'. You should see it under the list of available drives.

3 Check its contents first to make sure that you have the right drive.

4 In 'My Computer', right-click on the drive and choose 'Format'.

5 Leave all the options as they are and click on 'Start'. This is a non-reversible process so make sure this is what you truly wanted to do in the first place.

6 Once the process is completed, take the memory card out and insert it into your Digital Camera or any other device. Try to browse to it to make sure it works fine now.
