just bought and recieved my new extreme III mem card, taken a couple of pics but cant transfer them to my computer, had no problems with my old sandisk ultra II card but my printer with built in reader doesn't seem to do anything with them!

HELP!
 
It could be the firmware or drivers for your printer needs updating see the manufacturers website.
 
its not a SDHC card is it ?. and your Ultra 2 was a standard SD card ?.

Have you installed the drivers for the card reader part of your printer.
 
you can also get recovery programmes for memory cards, sandisk or lexar do them and they come free with certain cards.
 
had this happen to me too, 2gb Extreme III SD card, my card reader wouldnt read it at all just flashed its lights for about 5 minutes and said there was nothing on it. Put the card back in the camera, plugged camera in to the PC and downloaded them no problem ! i think my reader needs replacing ! it may be your printer card reader doesnt support those cards.

snap! haven't tried with the camera lead yet but will do if i can find it! just dont really wanna do it that way cos it drains the battery!
 
I have a sandisk 2gb SD like that too. The camera can see it, my Jobo Giga One can see it but no card reader ever does.

Never got to the bottom of why, just on of lifes strange things. I'll keep an eye on this thread as someone clever will probably know what's going on.
 
Just tried my 2gb Extreme III sd card and it works in the card reader in my computer but it wont work in my sandisk card reader, I would have expected the other way round if anything.
