You probably just need to format the card in the camera. This will completely erase it so download any pictures you want to save first.

CAUTION... I have a Canon Elph Powershot 8900 IS, I did both, shake the camera and spray CRC QD Electronic Cleaner into the card door, but after 5 hours it didn't work everything was blury, try it again after 8 hours it didn't work at all, I was scared. Finally next day, it worked perfect. All pic. saved and even the clock was on time so wait enough time for the camera to dry completely Thank you !

When I turn on camera it says "memory card error. What do I do?

is your memory card in the camera. If it is there is your camera compatible with the card that you bought. Also do you check to make sure the card is not write protected. There is a small switch on the side of the card.

The memory card of my canon ixus 95IS locked how can i unlock?

Hello,
The Canon PowerShot SD1200 uses SD and SDHC cards. These cards have a small plastic slider on the front of the card that will lock/unlock the card.

See the example below:

Slide the lock switch in the opposite direction.

Please let me know if I can further assist you.

Regards,
KYTechnology

My Cannon Powershot SD1200 IS says there is no memory card inserted when my memory card is in the camera. Help!

this card does take sdhc cards so that shouldnt be a problem, if your using it with 32gb try a smaller card like 4 or 8gb. if you can, try another card and try using a memory card reader with your computeer to see if it reads it. if all failes its probably time for a new sd card

I have a memory card error on my canon powershot SD 1200 IS. It says " memory card is locked. How do I fix it ?

Your memory card is an SD type. These cards have a little switch on the card that can write protect or "lock" it. Take the card out of the camera and check this switch. To unlock it, it should be moved towards the edge of the card which has the electrical contacts.

My canon SD1200 camera wont connect to my computer. its plugged in and turned on but it wont recognize it. how do i fix that?

There can be several reasons for this, try these in this order;

- unplug your camera from the computer. Make sure your computer has the latest driver for this camera
here is a link for some drivers: Canon Driver make sure to scroll down and select your operating system. Once it is installed, restart your computer and try again.
- reset all the settings on your camera to the default settings, your manual will show you how to do this.
- in order to at least salvage the pictures you can view the memory card directly either plugging it into your computer directly or if you don't have a slot for this card, you can use a card reader. these are sold in any electronics store and are quite cheap.
