So I've been using my 1GB xD card with my card reader fine for several months now, and when the card gets full or I just need to clear it out for some reason I just dump all the pictures in the trash using the computer and card reader. This time I did that, but when I put the card back in my camera it only takes one picture and then it tells me the memory is full! Does anybody know what happened and what I can do to fix this problem? Hopefully soon, as I need to be able to take pictures tomorrow!

Thanks in advance for your time.

Hi naoki and welcome to the Q&A Forum,

It's generally recommended that you delete images from a memory card and once and a while format it. Use the camera itself for erasing images (either all or individually) or formatting rather then delete them.

I don't know exactly what caused your problem, but I suggest you do an in-camera format (check your camera manual). Unless the card somehow became corrupted, that should fix it.

If this does not work, and you don't have time to call tech support, you may have to buy a new card if you absolutely must have it for tomorrow.

If you end up getting a new card, make sure to format it in camera before taking any photos.
