Ann,
Does the second card record in the camera?
Yes..
I have several CF cards... the one that failed has been reformatted a
few times already.. it would be nice if I could get the stuff I shot
off it.
One more piece of info - the Adobe downloader asks me to select a
device.. whereas,when things are working properly, it detects it... it
recognizes there is a card reader in the port.
I could have just bopped over to Staples and ask them to try it but
the weather is keeping me from venturing out at least not more than
a few steps.
at the moment I've mislaid the 2gB card (I said mg before, I meant GB!)

Do you have a friend with a
card slot on a laptop in their computer? It sounds as though the reader
has caused a formatting error on the card.. If the problem is the
reader, then the card can be reformatted. If you are looking for a trial
horse I have a 1 GB card just gathering dust that you are welcome to if
that would help

So I was talking more photos of the gear I got (of and with) and a
couple of other things yesterday - put it in the card reader , put the
card reader into its little USB port, as always, and nada... that
little chime that goes off when I do this doesn't chime... I try three
times -- then I put the card back into the camera, so wont forget, and
I get Memory card error aarrgh.
The pins look ok in the card reader which is a Vivitar series 1 72 in1
Hi speed card/reader writer.
The card is a 2 mb CF card (remember, my camera is istD) when I put it
into the camera I got the Memory card error message.
The good news is, that except for the photos I took yesterday of
equipment and a couple of chotskas and Ashley are already loaded onto
the computer... nothing I couldn't reshoot...
The bad news is I have no clue what to do to do to make the card
reader come back to life. I put another CF card into it and still no
go...
I'm thinking somewhere on my computer there is something to explore to
make it all better but can't remember anything.
anyone have any ideas? which is to say, "help!"
