SOURCE: I've tried several SD cards

This camera only supports, SD not SDHC, so make sure that the card is 2GB or under and the camera should recognize it.

Hi.

ASMI SD is not a type of file. It is the name of the card reader. Asmi is either the name of the card adapter (the slot) inside the camera, or the name of a card size adapter. Here a brochure showing ASMI adapters.

The card has lost formatting and the camera is either displaying the card reader name because the camera is unreadable, or the card is showing ASMI SD as a file name because its formatting is defective.

When that happens the files are often damaged or lost. The only attempt you can do to recover files is by connecting the card to a computer and then using a data recovery software.

Check also If the card is using an adapter. In that case you will have a smaller card inside an adapter that looks like a bigger card, as shown below. That adapter is ASMI as the slot inside the camera. If using an adapter extract the smaller card from inside and test using a computer.

With or without adapter pull out the card and read it using a computer. If the computer has no built in card reader, get an USB reader like this:Card reader .

First try reading the SD card without recovery software. If that does not work and files are still not displayed, install a recovery software and try recovering the files on the damaged card with the recovery software. Below a choice of files recovery software. Some of the software is free.

Computer won't recognize my camera when I plug it in

Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.
The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.
Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa.

My camera won't save to mass storage

Are you sure it's an SD card? If it's larger than 2GB then it's actually an SDHC card and won't work in the A300.

Why won't my camera won't read the sd card I'm using?

8 gB is SDHC. Try less than 4 gB maybe even 256 mB to see if it will read those cards. But lately, all stores only sell HC cards. Try ebay, and they may charge an arm and a leg for old cards?

SD card won't stay in the slot of my Panasonic Lumix DMC-SL80

is the lock on the card by chance. also depending on how old the camera is and how big the sd card is in gb. the lumix may not be able to handle that size of card, too many gb. My lumix would only accept up to 4 gb, so when I moved to 16 they did not work.

My camera won't show any pictures from my SD card

You have to change the 'storage' to 'memory card' or 'external card' from 'internal memory' or 'camera' using the camera menu.

Sorry it says card error then card not initialized.

If you mean that your camera won't format the card, make sure you're using a card the camera can use. For example, if your camera can only use SD cards, then it won't work with an SDHC card.

I can not get our memory card to format. it says card error. we are using a microSDHC Ccard with adapter 4gb

Is the camera compatible with SDHC? If it can only handle SD memory cards this card is not readable in the device. It will show on the camera whether it is compatible with SDHC. If it doesn't have the logo, take it as the card won't work and you'll need to get a normal SD card.

There is a theoretical maximum of 2GB for SD memory cards, SDHC start at 4GB and go up to 32GB.

Simply put, if your camera is quite old, it won't support SDHC and therefore is limited to a maximum of 2GB memory card.

My polaroid dvf 130 camcorder won't connect to my computer.the software it came with says it doesnt need a driver since I have windows xp what should I do?

this is what i did, and it worked perfectly. go out and get a sd card * any gig u want* as soon as u put the sd card into the camera, FORMAT IT!!!!. do that before u do anything else. don't format it on ur pc or laptop. format it on the camera. if u do that it will work perfectly. i don't know why it wasn't in the manual to format sd card first. but if u try to take pics first, that will mess up the entire system and u will be assed out a sd card. it took me 3 sd cards to figure this out. the cards worked fine but not in the camera. then i formatted it on the camera first and it works fine. the other sd cards i use for other things, i won't discard them but they won't work in the cam. but remember again GET NEW SD CARD AND FORMAT THE CARD IN THE CAMERA FIRST.
