Problem with Memory Card

Hello guys,
The other day something strange happen. My HTC doesnt recognize my memory card. ON memory settings in Storage Card says "not installed".
BUt in About Settings in Expansion Slot says that its "In Use".
Anyone know what could this be?

Same thing happened to me :-(

Try this
Reset the phone with the card not plugged in.
then after it boots up plug it in.
Or
Format the card.

Problem solved
Here is how...
1) I removed the Memory card.
2) I deleted the Storage Card folder
3) Soft reseted the phone
4) I put the memory card back
5) Soft reseted the phone again
and you will get the memory card
PS. Thanks djfuego

WTF - my SD storage card has gone

Ok so I tried accessing my gallery and my folders are missing - rebooted the phone, still missing.... file manger >> sd >> all there is is a friendly name.txt
where has my content gone!?
Also when plugging in my phone to my PC using media player mode only the phone directory displays, no storage card

Has it wiped itself? - How could I check this?
Settigns >>> SD card and phone storage
now reports External SD card as total space 'Unavailable', and the internal SD card as 13.43GB I've tried unmounting and re mounting - no change

if you put it back on a PC, does it read fine your SD card?
make sure you don't have it mounted
when mounted, you can't access it via the phone

I know this is a stupid question, but is it physically present and on the right place? If you try to remove it and put it in another card reader does it read itself? Do you have some other phone you can try this with?

Sorry its the internal SD card that seems to have formatted itself, I had many images etc. on home\sd - now its empty

Your SD card might be corrupted, can you write files on it?

[Q] Storage Card seemingly empty fix??

I am running a HTC Touch HD with a 8gb microSD memory card, i was watching a movie on it when it suddenly froze. Done a soft reset and found that the storage card to be empty and all programs which were installed to the mem card are also gone. However Start > Settings > Memory > Storage Card, shows 7.2gb used 700free meaning that the data is still there but the phone will not read it for some reason. I have been doing some research and have found that a lot of people have had the same problem but have not as yet posted a solution
All threads i found on this topic are from 2008-earlier and i was wondering if anybody has found a fix for this yet or whether i'll have to format the storage card completely as the computer on which i made the back-up for the card was also formatted last week in which case ill have to download all the data and programs again.
Thanks in advance

I have a similar issue, I had my Touch HD connected to the PC using the 'Disk Drive' option and accessing some files on the SD card whilst TomTom was running. I unplugged my device and TomTom complained about missing files then the app would not start again, I could not see the SD card after this on the device or my PC SD card slot so I restarted the PC and the phone.
I could then see the files on my SD card, and I could see the files on my device but it is now appearing as Storage Card 2, I had to reinstall my apps to this new location to get them working as I could not get the SD card to show as Storage Card, and there is already a Storage Card showing as well as Storage Card 2.
Weird!!!

[Q] Storage card problem

Hi am hoping someone can help as this is driving me nuts!
I store all pics and music on storage card but today am getting messages to say phone memory is full. Using file explorer i can see under my Device that the storage card is now appearing there as well as separately as a storage card....have connected phone to laptop though and cant see it listed if i explore the files that way.
transferred all pics from card to laptop, and reformatted card via phone and it disappears from 'my device' but then as soon as i access it it reappears. Obviously this is what is filling the phone memory....how do i get rid of it ?
any help would be greatly appreciated

What OS?
What ROM?
Are you installing apps to internal or external?
Have you installed something that can check teh sizes of your folders etc?

os 5.2.21864
ROM 1.43.206
havent installed any apps recently. only thing done recently was active sync because i had taken some new pics which are stored on storage card.
i just cant work out why the storage card has transferred itself into the phone memory.
the storage card appears in file explorer under storage card but is also appearing under the my device tab. it just seems to be copying itself across for some reason

Internal storage 0 Byte

Hi all,
I hope someone can help me.
A few days ago i removed my external SD Card *needed in my other phone*
Today i put the SD Card back in the transformer. Now i want to download a new rom (JB) but th browser says that there is no sd card. When i look into the settings / memory the internal storage shows not 16GB. It says 0Byte but the bar is totally green (apps).
I dont know why, i also cant make screenshots.
The strange thing is that when i go into recovery the backups and everything is there...
Do you have any ideas?
EDIT... Using Megatron!

Did you eject the SD card in software prior to removing? If so it can corrupt the file system.
Did your phone reformat the card to a non compatible format?
