  1. I bought a 64GB SD card and my computer can't seem to detect it.


    I have a 4GB SD card which is always detected, but for some reason this specific SD card when placed into my card reader says Directory name invalid or something of the likes, I've tried changing the letter, troubleshooting in various ways, went to the sd card makers website and followed their help and nothing seems to work, is there any other solutions?

    :)

    SD Memory Card not detecting

    Hi,

    The card is absolutely clean and there is no data in the card. I removed the card from the slot and then switched off the phone. Then inserted it again and i feel that it got fit properly. Then switched on my phone but again same problem.

    I have tried the hard reset of the phone as suggested by Linley, but that didn't help too. I have tried 2 other cards in this phone (1 GB SD Card), and those worked perfectly fine. The phone detected those cards, the moment i plugged it in.

    It's kinda very strange that the phone is not detecting the card that i bought, whereas its getting detected in other phones. And its detecting other cards.

    Any other suggestions please? I am totally perplexed by this problem.

    Karan
