Memory card troubleshooting

Use this section to solve these memory card problems:

My memory card no longer works in my digital camera

The HP All-in-One does not read the memory card

The Photo light next to the memory card slots is blinking

The Attention light blinks when I insert my memory card

The photos on the memory card do not transfer to my computer

Memory card is not available

The file name appears as meaningless text

Other users on the network can access my memory card

Error message: Cannot find the file or item. Make sure the path and file name are
correct.

My memory card no longer works in my digital camera

Cause: You formatted the card on a Windows XP computer. By default, Windows
XP will format a memory card of 8 MB or less and 64 MB or more with the FAT32
format. Digital cameras and other devices use the FAT (FAT16 or FAT12) format and
cannot recognize a FAT32 formatted card.
Solution: Reformat your memory card in your camera or format your memory card
in a Windows XP computer by selecting the FAT format.

The HP All-in-One does not read the memory card

Cause: The card is inserted backwards or upside down.
Solution: Turn the memory card so that the label side is on the left and the contacts
are on the right (and facing the HP All-in-One), and then push the card forward into
the appropriate slot until the Photo light turns on.
If the memory card is not inserted properly, the HP All-in-One will not respond and
the Photo light (near the memory card slots) will not turn on.

After the memory card has been inserted properly, the Photo light will blink for a few
seconds, and then remain lit.

Cause: The memory card is not fully inserted.
Solution: Make sure you fully insert the memory card into the appropriate slot on
the HP All-in-One.
If the memory card is not inserted properly, the HP All-in-One will not respond and
the Photo light (near the memory card slots) will not turn on.

After a memory card has been inserted properly, the Photo light will blink for a few
seconds, and then remain lit.

Cause: You have inserted more than one memory card.
