They can but there is an inherent issue with those cards. They are RAM memory and can be easily damaged by a lot of things. Static electricity is one downfall of them.

My memory card won't go down and lock into place. I've tried several different cards. None of them will lock into place

Be carefull, never use force. Check if you don't try to put in the card the wrong way around. Then check if nothing is damaged inside the memory slot. You need a bright light and perhaps a magnifying glass, because everything is very small. Compare the memory slot with a memory slot from another camera. Watch how the little knobs on the side look. I don't mean the contacts. When the contacts are bent, there is a possibility someone once pressed a memory card in the wrong way around and damaged the contacts and knob to secure the card.

Ram not working

Step 1:
A memory slot is a slot in your motherboard where you place your RAM (Random Access Memory) card. In layman's terms, the RAM is the "temporary memory" that the computer utilizes whenever it is turned on. If the computer cannot detect a RAM card installed in one of your memory slots, you have to troubleshoot the problem immediately.
Ensure that the problem is with the RAM slot and not the memory card. Turn off the computer, unplug all devices connected into the ports of your computer and open the computer casing. Refer to the manual of the computer to know the specific steps to follow in opening the computer casing. Remove the memory card from the RAM slot. To do this, unlock the card using both hands. Pull the card away from the slot to remove. Inspect the RAM card for any apparent physical damages. Wipe the card with a clean cloth to remove dust. Also wipe the memory slot in your motherboard. Place the RAM card back into the memory slot. Press the card into the slot until it clicks into place. Close the computer casing, connect the cables back into their respective slots and turn on the computer. Turn on the computer and see if the memory is detected. If the computer does not boot up, the RAM card is not detected by the computer. Assuming that you have two memory cards installed in the computer and the computer boots up, check if the second memory card is detected by the computer. Click "Start," right-click "Computer" and then "Properties." Under "System," check the amount of "Installed Memory (RAM)." If the RAM is not detected, the RAM slot or the RAM card itself may be malfunctioning. Place the RAM card into another memory slot in your motherboard and see if the card is detected. If it is detected, the other memory slot is malfunctioning. Do not install any RAM card into it to avoid further damage. If it is not detected, the RAM card may be malfunctioning. Insert another RAM card into the slot. If the RAM card is detected, the slot is malfunctioning.

How to remove memory card my n73

The memory card slot for Nokia N73 is located at the bottom of the keypad just above the charger connector.
  1. Before you eject the card, press the power key, and select Remove mem. card. All applications are closed.
  2. When Remove memory card and press 'OK' is displayed, open the door of the memory card slot.
  3. Press the memory card to release it from the slot.

Do not remove the memory card in the middle of an operation when the card is being accessed. Removing the card in the middle of an operation may damage the memory card as well as the device, and data stored on the card may be corrupted.

I get a "Memory card error" message on my SD750?what could be the problem with my card and can it be solved?

Hello,

The reason there is an error message on your memory card is because the memory card might have been damaged or probably not inserted properly.

To find out if the memory card is damaged, try to use the memory card in other devices that supports the memory card to see if it works. If it works on other devices, then the problem if from the card reader that is in the camera, and if it does not work, then the memory card is faulty. And the only solution is to replace the memory card.

To test the slot in the camera, try a tested okay memory card on it, if it does not work then the slot is faulty and to solve this problem, i will strongly advice you take the camera to a camera repair guy to clean the slot for you.

Goodluck

My 1 gb memory card does not work, please advise me

hi...
1.this may be because the slot in which you are putting the card may be damaged so it is not detecting the memory card.

2.the solts may contain dirt/dust which is preventing the contact surfaces to come in contact with slot.clean the contact surface on both memory card and the device where yo u trying to put it.

3.the memory cards may be damaged due to external shock so you need to change the memory card itself

Can i insert this type of memory card into the slot into the computer directly? it says on my laptop that sd, xd and M (symbol for pro duo? )can be inserted. But when i try to insert it, it doesn't appear...

it is advisable to buy a AIO (All in one) card reader, you can use this to many different type of memory card, the built in slot for memory card in your laptop sometimes only suite to a single type or model (ex. SD slot..MMC Slot etc.)

in your case your memory card is not fit to it, don't force it you might damaged your card

Memory card

Dear Starrr63,
I think the slot where you insert the memory card has been damaged or it doesn't make contact with memory stick. See inside slot in good light, hope you will find damage/tilted pins there.

Memory card or slot error

if the problem is not the memory stick, then you have a damaged card slot in the psp.

when you insert it on slot, you must make it slowly. if you strongly inserted it, you must have damaged it. or in better cases you have a dirt, faulty contact in slot.

first, look inside the slot, and try to see if the contacts are intact and lined with each other, something like this: | | | | | | | if you see that some of the contact are out of place ( | | | / | | | ), you must take it back in place. the same problem happens with nintendo ds games. if dirt, buy a cleaning kit and clean the contacts.
