camcorder that is using it in order to keep the file structure perfectly intact. Tip: after
reformatting, the camera will automatically number photo files from the beginning, which
means new photos will have the same file names and numbers as older photos you may
have stored on other media such as hard drives or optical discs. You will have to rename
the older or new photos in order to avoid name conflicts if they end up stored in the same
file folder.
26) The error message most likely means that data on at least one file are corrupt. The likely
cause is incomplete information either from: a) a battery that did not have enough power
during a write cycle, b) turning off the camera before a write cycle was complete, or c)
pulling the flash card out before the write cycle was finished. Reformatting the card will
likely restore it, but all the data on it will be lost.
27) Once a rewritable/erasable storage medium gets close to being completely full with data,
the filing system gets frantic trying to find more room. It is always wise not to try to fill a
flash card or rewritable optical disc to full capacity. Leave a little “breathing room” for the
file system.
28) There are several reasons why a flash card reader may not work properly:
a. Improper installation—Memorex readers are USB devices that are plugged into the
USB port before
the computer is turned on. Once the computer is booted up, plug
and play recognition will identify the reader and load the drivers for it.
b. Lack of drivers—some flash readers come with a CD-ROM that has the proper
driver set for the reader while other readers rely on plug-and-play recognition. If the
proper drivers are not in your computer, you can download them from Memorex’s
website at:

c. Lack of support for the device—the Apple Mac OSX operating system in its earliest
configuration did not offer built-in (“native”) support for Smart Media readers; so
drivers had to be installed by users. The early OSX did not support multi-level
devices such as the combination Compact Flash/Smart Media or multi-flash
readers. Updates to the Mac operating system will likely add the necessary drivers.

conflicts and the fixes.
29) This can happen if the TravelDrive is formatted in the NTFS format instead of the standard
FAT32 or FAT format. Unlocking the write/protect switch will free up the files, but it is still
better to use FAT32 formatting with these drives in order to have them work best in
Windows 98SE, Windows Me, and Windows 2000.
