20 Most Recent SanDisk 2GB Memory Stick Micro M2 Memory Card w/Memory Stick PRO Duo Memory Card Adapter Questions & Answers

Never heard of memory sticks needing software!

Memory stick flash memory is tricky. If it is too small, DO NOT INSERT IT. I made this mistake and was lucky enough to have some tools handy to get it back out. You'll need a different adapter to use it in the memory card reader that you have.

As for "guest" 's conundrum. You will need to use either needle nose pliers or tweezers to VERY CAREFULLY remove it. It won't be easy and you have to be careful so as not to push it farther in (which eventually it will stop going in, but still makes it that much harder to get it out)

Good luck

the card shows sign of a rom ic being lost its firmware

if you are referring to a usb drive

click start control panel administrative tools computer management device manager scroll down universal serial bus controllers you could see a yellow question / exclamation mark? ! or a red X

ports (com&lpt) right click update driver if this fails to fix the problem

check the USB leads that attach to the motherboard usually red white green black make sure they are securely seated and have no dust build up on them dust will cause static and a lot of unforeseen problems to a computer and its parts if you need more help with this or if i have missed the problem post a reply hope it helps

Sorry, I can not help because I opened an online service, for your problem. The solution to repair the microSD, you can contact me through the Fixya Marketplace

using your phone, see if there is a file named something like "ignore my files .xyz" or similar, if so, try to delete that file and try again

look at page "3/9" of this document "http://www.pqi.com.tw/upload/download/SD%20%284%29.pdf" and it will show on the lower right hand side of the picture a slot that says "write protect", move that tab towards the pins to unlock the card.BTW this is a good technical document for SD cards in general if you are interested in how they function.

Check it in other computers. If it works welll then you have install driver in your system. Although now a days drivers comes automatically installed, sometimes it causes problem. Or you can go to sandisk site and get the driver.

1)disconnect the battery for 5-10 min. Then replace it &try to read card's info. OR 2)Select "restore factory settings" then try to read or 3)use a memory card reader to 1st backup info into a pc then format it by the pc.

Did you check your memory stick for viruses before opening? Did you do opening in another computer?

The adapter goes into an SD card slot. It looks like this:

If you don't have a slot you will need a USB sd adapter..you can get one here:

I hope this helps! If this did help you, please give a thumbs up!

Thank you for choosing FixYa!

The adapter has a tiny switch on the side opposite the notch near the pins.
The switch needs to be towards the pins, not away from them.

the memory card lifetime is over.....just throw it dear....

Firstly switch off your mobile.Then put out your memory card adapter from your mobile.then re-enter the memory card adapter in your mobile, but sure of that if your small lock in your adapter is unlocked.It is unlocked by hand.Then ENJOY.

It's no problem at all to get them back. Please see this blog article for several free software that you can download. You'll need to use a card reader with these programs though:
