You have to watch the little lock switch - I have a card reader that always switches mine to lock-I just have to remember to un-lock before it goes back in the camera!!

There should be a switch on the card. Change its position and you should be good to go.

There is a way to write over the card at the beginning when it becomes full. Occasionally I need to wipe the card clean and start over. I am using two 16 GB cards and alternating them between the defender monitor and the main PC to save the important files,

There is a little slide switch on the side of the memory card that will lock it so you can't alter the contents. Just slide it the other way and you should be good to go.

Because the card reader is connected to USB and seen by the computer as a mass storage device .. no matter what type of card is inserted. When you do a safe to remove the computer disables the entire card reader. I use a card reader that plugs into one of the USB ports, so all I have to do is ... safe to remove ... then unplug it ... then plug it back in. Your dashboard is OK thats just the way it is .. inconvienent though. Regards, Fred

I just bought one of these a few days ago, and I bought a 2GB microSD card to go with it. When I plugged the device (with microSD inserted) into my computer, it shows up as TWO separate external drives ("disk" and "disk-1"). I then dragged files to them separately. But... when the device is removed, it displayes "refresh database, do not remove SD card" (or something similar) and thinks for about 30 seconds. After that, it appears that the two separate file systems are seen as ONE by the device itself.I am using Linux (Ubuntu 7.04). I'm not sure if it is different with Windows platforms.

The micro sd card is a memory card. You plug the sd card into the USB adapter and then plug it into a PC so that you can view what's on the sd card. Hope this helps.

It's just like a normal SD card. Make sure you check the size of the slot of the device you're going to use it in. If it's a small one, use the micro disk as is; if it's a large one, put it inside the adaptor first before putting it into your device. I've used it on my phone, tablet, video cam, camera, computer, laptop, no problem.

I believe that the micro SD is inserted upside down . However, always go slow an the card will only fit one way, so don't apply pressure just slide it in easily.

Hi, it's a regular SD card. I know what you are talking about. I recently bought a non branded Micro HC card and gave me issues. I never had issues with the SanDisk. Worth to spend a buck more for this...

I think the other answer is correct. That when you are safely removing it is for the USB device. However, I did remove just the card and everything was fine.

Did you check to see if the table has it shown under the storage setting? Sometimes certain Android devices need the card formatted and/or mounted. Also, the fact the MicroSDHC is a UHS-I varient, it could be possibly incompatible due to the varient of Class-10. Some cards will have incompatibility issues, kind of like the SD/SDHC issue, it is probably rare but still possible with UHS-I.

I thought the new ones that come with the 1 GB ram have an easy to access ram "window" on the bottom of the computer case. Is that not right?I've been told the upgrade now is very easy, but would like to confirm that... Just pop the little cover off on the bottom of the case and pop the old card out and snap the new one in. Yes?

I recently bought the kingston 1 gb microSD for my vx8300. The phone recognized the card and shows the full 1 gb, but when u put music in the my music folder, nothing shows up for me. The only way i could get music onto it was by putting it in the my mp3 folder. Under my mp3s, the songs are organized by file name so there is no real organization. Other users say that the card works with the 8300, but my experience tells otherwise.

I have bought two of this cardreaders (which I find realy cool), and both have damaged just by the use in less than one year. I used it with san disk microSD cards of 64Gb...¿is there any restriction in the use of this card reader?

Sorry I never put an SD card in mine. Only way I can think of is to take the SD out and put it into an card reader. Or keep looking in the menu.

The MicroSD chop goes INSIDE the metal half, and together they fit into any standard USB slot and are read like any normal flash/thumb drive.The top part is a simple plastic cover acting as a protective shell for when you don't have it inserted into the slot.The chip friction-fits inside and will have no trouble staying there. It's is removed by pushing the very tiny (takes a fingernail) yellow tab just a bit, that pokes the chip to stick out a tiny bit, but enough that you can grab the chip and remove it fully.

Yes. Example:: Instead of loading my 2GB MicroSD card in my phone, I just loaded most of my songs from my computer onto the card via the Kingston USB 3.0 Media Reader. When I was upgrading my MicroSD card from an 2GB to a 8Meg later, I copied the whole card onto my desktop, loaded the new 8GB card in my Kingston, cut & pasted from desktop into the card. Works great.
