Re: Help! TP does not recognize external Card

ThesFactor, I use the same Transcend card and it has worked great for two months. I'm not sure what your error message means,but I'm sure someone else can elaborate. Anyways, I have been through SD card recognition trouble before, and I will try to help.

Did you change any settings such as (Settings>>Connections>>USB to PC >> ActiveSync/Diskdrive)?

More importantly, did you take out, or access the card with any device other than the HTC touch Pro?

If so, an improper dismount (removing the card while it's accessing data) can cause anomalies, or alter file structure etc.

First step would be to see if the card can be read in another device such a PC/etc... If so, great! Your data is still there.

If not, then you may have to reformat the card. If there is crucial data (such as pics of your gf) then you can try one of the many SD card data recovery programs (just google search). They take some time, but they work.

If reformatting the card doesn't work, then I know there is a .cab floating around the forums that has the actual SD card reader program. You could try re-installing this.

And lastly, a hard reset. But I would definitely backup my data with google contacs, or sprite backup before
