Questions on the Tungsten C

I am a new owner of Tungsten C.  More of a Gearhead than a Techie.  So far it works great and does all that I want, still learning the nuances of the machine.  Hope this is posted in the right area, but I have a couple if questions.

 

The SD slot does not recognise that a card has been inserted, is this a format issue on the card, do I need to get a unit specific card ( the card is a SanDisc 4gb) or the slot has an issue?

 

My main use for the machince is to consolidate all the items I have been carring, i.e day planner, mp3, check registar, and e-book.

 

Feed back is appreciated.

Thanks

Re: Questions on the Tungsten C

The card is too large, and of a newer design than the T|C can read.

 

Here's an article from Palm listing the maximum card size for each device.  (The card must be of the older SD designation, not "SD HC").

Re: Questions on the Tungsten C

Thanks for the info and link. Although the link did not mention the Tungsten C, would it be safe to assume that a 1 or 2 gig SD card would be the ticket.

 

Also are these older style cards still around and where.

 

Thanks again, will keep all posted on my continuing adventures in Palm land

I'd be safe and try a 1GB card.

 

Punching in "1GB SD card" into Google produced almost 5 million hits... Not too hard to find one!   :smileywink:

Re: Questions on the Tungsten C

You will have to use a 1mb card. Staples swore that my device needed a 2mb card, but someone mentioned a 1mb on a previous forum, I decided to see if a 1mb card would work, and it did.
