Notes
●
You must format a card on a digital camera regularly. If the card inserted into the adapter has been
formatted with the connected computer, it may not be recognized by a digital camera. For details on
formatting with a camera, refer to the camera’s instruction manual.
If your camera does not recognize a card formatted on another device, re-format the card with your
camera. (Cards formatted with non-DOS formatting systems are not recognized by the adapter.)
Before formatting the card
●
When formatting the xD-Picture Card , make sure that there is no important data on it. Existing data
will not be usable after the card has been formatted.
