JC - thank you so much for the wonderful suggestion about using a separate SD card reader! i, too was about to purchase the Canon A1000 IS and was turned off by the negative reviews of the software.i have a SansDisk card reader (that accepts SDHC) and plan to go this route. Thanks again!VK

Maybe need to check out the memory card. Have no problem w/my camera in the past 2 wks I have taken over 125 pic and still taking pictures so my advice is the memory card is it good or bad, try another memory card.

Very informative, Matthijs. I was wondering why the card from my new camera was not getting recognized. Old was SD New was SDHC. My version is 20-90-00136. Guess I will go to Sandisk to see if I can update the firmware. EDIT: Well, I just checked. Looks like I am SOL! I guess a new card reader is in the cards.

I can delete the pictures from the SD card on my computer by selecting the pictures I want to delete, then right click, choose delete. If you put that back in your trail camera it will take pictures on the SD card. That's how I used to do it. I complained about battery performance on my trail cameras, and was verbally told on Moultrie's support line, if you freshly format the SD card when you put it in the trail camera that will use it, it will be optimal for storing images and be easier on the batteries. I took that advice and got 3 months of heavy use in cold weather where earlier.. I was barely getting a month. I've adopted that as standard practice for me. either way your trail camera should keep taking pictures .. until the batteries get too low... ;)

I asked ' How many images can be created using one device?Whtat with the 'confidential' owner's manual? " . Still no answer, so isnt anybody interested in selling it?

Thanks! Another silly question, does SD card mean the San Disk Camera? I want to take her present out of the package and get it all set up so all she needs to do is open it and it is ready to go (but I also want to make sure it works)Julianne

Since I take exclusively stills, no video, I rotate through several 2GB and 4GB cards, I can use them individually for practice, hikes, special occassions like weddings or family gatherings, etc. Then there's no confusion with a concert or shots of goldfish. Sorting through a thousand shots isn't something I enjoy. I slip one out for download via a card reader and replace it with a fresh one. I'm only taking around 30-40,000 shots a year, but it's worked so far. I format for every cycle and use the cards in 3 different cameras.It takes 3 batteries to fill a 4GB card with a thousand shots. I don't know what I'd ever use a 32GB card for.Just something to consider.

Make sure that the card is formatted correctly. Depending on the operating system of your computer you can insert the card into your computer and either erase all of the files or reformat the card. I bought the same card and did not have that problem. Let me know if you need further help.

Incredibly helpful advice about SD cards for the S90, J. Robertson. Yours is the best advice on the subject I've seen anywhere (and that includes dpreview forums). Consider yourself uprated.

Hello, Has anyone figured out how to print pics with the date on them? This is important to me since I don't remember things as easily as before. I looked in the manual and don't see it referenced. Thanks so much!

Same problem, always Busy after taking the picture.I have the same card, the 16gb class 6 Trascend SDHC card, in fact I bought two of these and one of 8 GB same brand, I have 3 cards SandDisk Extreme that I use with my (now) old S2IS, I test with every card, and I have always the same Busy message after taking the picture. I am very sad, because that doesn't happen with the S2IS, same cards. I would say that it is not a Card problem but I don't know how to fix it. I tryed avoidig to use it the Auto mode, and the Busy dissapear in some othe modes, I can't figure out what is happening. I hope somebody out there help me. Thanks.

I.could not do it with my phone but you are able to see them.in a.tablet and no.actually you have access to.all the photos on.your card, then.you.can.delete the.ones you.don't want

You can erase individual pictures. My husband thinks he erased all at once one time but he's not sure. In the book it doesn't say if you can delete all at once or one at a time.

I've taken a couple thousand pictures with mine since December 07. I think the problem is the image size/resolution setting. If you take every photo like you might want a huge enlargement from it, the process of recording to the card is what takes a long time. I think it's going to be slow, but I'd play around with smaller resolution etc. to find a bearable compromise.@S.K., yes it seems worst if you're using flash and stale batts.
