It should work in the Olympus. Insert the SD card then power up the camera and go to the Menu setting and format the SD memory card.

SOURCE: Olympus E500 card error

I had the same problem. Unfortunately it turned out tha I had somehow bent some of the pin. Look inside to see if some of the pins are not alingned. Then try to bend it back. I bent them back and one got a little messed up resulting in faulty reading of the images. Black flashing parts on the image. Mikes camera said the pins would have to be replaced at $200. I'm not happy as I only used my camera once. Hope you have better luck

SOURCE: I have olympus e300 evolt and the read out says

Inside the card cover, there are two 'hooks' and one small protruding pin. This pin will push a (very small) brownish contact pin that can be found near the card eject button. If either of the pins is damaged, the contact pin will not be pushed in far enough and the camera will not get the 'card cover closed' signal, which results in a 'card cover open' warning message. You might be able to fix this problem by inserting a (very small/thin) piece of cork in the contact pin hole, so that the contact pin is again pushed in far enough to close the contact.
Just to make sure this is the problem, try pushing the small contact pin in with a pen, pencil or small screwdriver. If the warning message disappears, you know the contact pin is still working and is probably not pushed in far enough.

SOURCE: how to use sd card with fe-46

Unfortunately, you can't. The FE-46 uses xD-Picture cards. It can also use microSD and microSDHC cards using the supplied microSD attachment.

Lexar sd card error, it is a 16gb Lexar sd card. When I put the card in my camera it says "card error-card is locked. Need to know how to fix this card.

SD cards have a slide switch along one edge.
The position farthest from the metal contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card.

Can olympus e500 record video?

Yes, the Olympus EVOLT E-500 digital camera is capable of recording video. The camera has the ability to record video in AVI format, at a resolution of 640x480 pixels, and at a frame rate of 30 frames per second. The camera also has a built-in microphone for audio recording.
It's important to note that the video recording function of the Olympus EVOLT E-500 is quite basic and the camera is not designed primarily for video recording, so the quality of the video may not be as good as a dedicated video camera.
Also, the camera firmware is quite old and it may not be compatible with the latest video editing software. It's recommendable to check the software compatibility before recording videos.

My JVC-GRHD1

This camcorder will use SD cards. However it will not use SDHC cards such as your 16GB Lexar card. While SDHC cards will fit into the slot, they are electronically incompatible and will not work. You need to use SD cards, 2GB and smaller.

My xd card will not stay in on my olympus e500 digital camera. It just pops back out.

I have exactly the same problem with my Evolt E-500. Very annoying and I've tried everything, and there's nothing in the manuals to advise about it.
