Anyone know what I can do? At least how can I get access to the memory card? thanks
i suppose you are using the cabel, which came with the wing - not one from a digital camera or so...
because sometimes the companys are changeing little things in the camera-cables so its not "iso-conform" or standard anymore...
other usb-devices are recognised by ur pc?
did u try other usb-ports?
are u running the newest active-sync?
Error message.
Is nothing happening when you plug it in, or is windows telling you it cannot recognize the device? If nothing happens, you need a new cable. If you get a error message (cannot recognize or device has malfunctioned) then you need to reinstall or update ActiveSync.
You can always load music and pictures by taking the Micro SD card out, using the adaptor, and putting it into the SD slot on your computer. That's much faster for loading music anyway. What version of ActiveSync do you have? Is it the one that came with your phone?
p.s. Only post once for each problem. It may take a few days but someone will get back to you. That way we don't clutter the board with extra messages.
i just changed my cord and it worked fine

Hey, I'm having a problem copying a 300 megabyte wmv file from my computer to my 2 gig stick. Whenever it gets to about 5~10% goes back to 0 and starts again, does anyone have this problem? Or, does anyone know what's the matter?
Thanks!
BTW, my card is a 2 gig MiniSD on my Cingular 8125.
i havent tried this.. dont use my phone much for music and video, mostly just all data... but is it going through activstink? if so is it converting the file? and 300meg file going through the phone takes a while, i would try using your mini sd adapter and a card reader and connect it to your pc and just copy it over that way
Oh, thank you for the reply, I'll try to directly transfer it from PC to stick instead of through activesync. No, it says conversion (none) so I assume it is not converting. I will see if I can plug the stick into my computer.
Btw, when I remove my stick should I power off my 8125? Almost everything is installed into my stick.
Edit: Nope, , there is no place on my computer for me to plug my stick directly into.
no need to power off... and you should have gotten an SD adapter for your mini SD card. after putting the mini sd card into the SD adapter then would need a SD card reader which are very inexpensive to acquire if you dont have one already. then plug the reader into the computer, the computer should recognize it as a removable storage device. just drag and drop...
Alright, thank you! Yes it did come with an adapter. Is there anyway to copy large files through activesync?
you should be able to.. but with my experience it just takes forever... i copied my iguidance map for a friend one time and its 600meg... took 30 minutes to complete. I only copy large files via the adapter nowadays
Yeah, I don't mind waiting 15-30 minutes, it's just that it resets itself and I have no idea if I can ever get it on my phone via activesync.
Edit: I'm trying a different method, right clicking the file and going to send to.. then selecting device, then they prompt me to choose the destination within the device, so far so good. I'll edit again if it's successful or not.
SUCCESS!!
WM5Storage
I use WM5Storage instead, for large files. Works better and faster, than ActiveSync.
ok this is kind of wierd but i bought my wizard from a friend. she formated the card to get all the stuff off. and by the time it gets into my hands it doesnt work anymore. the sd cards in the slot and my phone doesnt know its there, also activesync doesnt know its there. so does any one know if there is anything i can do to fix this myself?????? some program or mod?????
but now that i think about it another question comes to mind. is it that card or my phone just f-ed up have know clue????
ok i just read some before this one and my sd is real and its in a 8125 if that helps
The card probably just needs to be reformatted again. The easiest way would be to put it in a card reader and reformat it with your computer. Formatting it with a digital camera sometimes works too if you don't have a card reader.
great idea but each time i put the sd card in something i doesnt act right, for example in my wii, "cant read sd card" in my camra, without it i loads find but when i put it in the on light just comes on, the screen doesnt even come up lol, i put it in my printer/fax it said "error error" with the light flashing im not giving the up on it 10 bucks for a 2gb come on who else does that. anyway i'm also sry for post in the forum didnt see the accessories link, i got so happy to find this place i forgot forum manners.
Sounds like the only thing you have left to try is the card reader. If you don't have one, the easiest thing you can try is to download and install on your phone WM5 Storage, you can get it here - http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/wm5torage.shtml. Then activate it before you connect your phone to the usb cable and it will detect it as a mass storage device and allow you to format it again, as long as the cards not bad.
Was it formatted on an 'oldish' PC or laptop because it may have been formatted to the wrong spec as anything above 1Gb needs a version 2.0 formatter.
Browse the SD manufacturers sites for an SD format utilty (Toshiba, Sandisk, etc) they can sometimes recover them.
wow thank i dont have one but i was just going to take it to office depot and ask if they can do it for me but that cool

I have not seen that error, have you made any MODS to your phone? (ie root, etc.) What RC are you on?
--M
I had all sorts of problems like that for a while after I got the phone.
I tried a variety of things and it seemingly went away, although I haven't tested extensively. I'm not sure what exactly did it.
1) I stopped using a USB extension cord and plugged the cord that shipped with the device directly into my computer.
2) I replaced the default SD card with a Kingston 4GB chip from Newegg.
3) I installed the debug USB drivers (this is very unlikely to matter).
There might be other factors involved.
g1 error

what are the exact words in the error message?

it happens because your pc has usb1.0 and not usb2.0 I have usb1.0 and i get the i/o error. the way i have to load my mem card is put it into the wing then load it
I agree with Abbens... had the same problems with everyone else. But have now fixed it.... use the USB2.0 cable onto a USB2.0 port on a PC, then "mount" from notifications and the SD card should be accessible.
thanks
Okay guess I'll try it this weekend and post a reply thanks guys

thank you so much for this info..i was having the same error now i know why
hello guys!
my problem is popular on google but i don't see any one with my problems.
Anyway, i used my usb to connect and transfer some pics and some music.
Everything was OK until i unplugged my usb. PROBABLY WITHOUT UNMNOUNTING (on my mac). The message on my x10 is like this "preparing sd card. checking for errors"
I have tried to fix the problem by recovering the phone to fabric mode (?).
Anyway i just want to know how to fix this and i have tried a different card into my phone so there is no problems with the phone.
My comp doesn't recognize my x10 anymore. This is really frustrating and i can't use the sd card in the phone because it just restarts itself.
Try formatting the card and see if that helps.
how to formate the card if my comp wont read it?
i have no adapter or anything else, except my x10...
The card works in other phones and i have tried micro sd 2gb in my x10 and it works...
PLEASE HELP

Use one of them to format it.
I actually have a similar issue. When connecting the phone to a mac via usb, upon dissconnecting the card becomes unreadable. I used an adapter to reformat the card to get it working again. I am no longer connecting via usb with my mac. Connecting from Bluetooth doesn't cause this problem. Best bet is to borrow/buy an adapter to reformat. Try not to connect to mac via usb as the card almost always becomes corrupt upon disconnection.

When I try to mount my cell thru the USB cable I cant find it in the Tabs memory?
Where should I be looking? Or won't this work? The cell is charging thru the USB.
Thx

I was actually wondering the same thing. It is pretty nice that it charges the phone but being able to transfer files between phone and tablet would be awesome. Also I have noticed that you when you plug into a comuter you can only see the internal memory on the device and not anything stored on a microsd card in the tablet. I even tried installing that Acer sync program and thtpat didn't help either.
