Glad it helped 😀😀😀

It worked for me just now. Thanks for the great tip. Really appreciate it

I am so sorry Andrea but I have never encountered that before and I have tried to find the answer online but I could not find the answer? If you find out please let me know ♥ Sean

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube I have been looking for it online and no luck. thank you so much for reply!! :)

Glad it helped :-) Sean

So glad it helped :-)

Glad you liked the video but what do you mean your issue is more a physical issue brother? - Sean

Not sure of your question 😀 you don't understand anything that I am saying or you find it difficult to follow what I am saying? What country are you from Alexander?❤

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube It is spelled as fAils, not fEils :-)

Thank you for sharing that ♥ Sean

the file you deleted has ZERO connection to the issue

same issue with me same model, how you fixed?

if you dont get the video then I am sorry I can not help man

:-) ♥

use thrd party apps for recovering the photos. i use Stellar Photo Recovery and EaseUS Recovery. i format my memory card and let the software search for the photos. Sometimes, the file or image after being recovered gets corrupted mainly due to virus attack or other issues im not sure of. this has been my problem since for the last 3 months and i cant swap out my memory card or buy a new one since the memory card giving me all the issues is 256 Gb :-(

Sorry I can not help you in relation to the D3300 but i did have to use this last week to retrieve a dmaged mp4 file on my android it worked a treat ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5p143_E7B1I.html

My pleasure glad it helped ♥

Abhinay Raikar how to install if memory card shows errors

Same here damn

The file you deleted has zero connection to the issue which is why your issue came back. A person can try the full format but the issue may still come back as is either with a doggy card OR how you delete files etc directly from the card or if you edit your video files directly from the card so look for what I have shown in the video but I think you will find the issue will come back but keep me updated and thanks for sharing - Sean

yes i know that's why i updated. i've since used the camera for both photo and movie capture and i'm not getting the error message anymore. also i found that when i ejected the memory card from the pc, i right clicked and ejected that way...also worked for me!!

thanks for this video, it helped me sort out the problem i was having

+Alexandra Starr (photographer) I never knew you had a Leica you snob :-P Yes like the old tapes there is just so many times they can be used, have you tried gently cleaning the exposed sensor on the card? Thats interesting about the tripod, does it work when not on the tripod, could be as you say putting pressure on the slot. Have a fantastic weekend ahead Lexi and go look for that decisive moment you HCB fan girl :-) ♥ XXX

My leica is one of those horrid rebadged panasonic bridge camera's, its the one i bought between owning my canon dslr's and the fuji, i thought i could live without interchangeable lenses, i was sooooO wrong lol it works intermittently, but mostly it refuses to do anything once the QR plate is in place! If Henri CB had my leica he would have missed most of those lovely shots he produced! Think the weekend here is going to be cold and windy so im off out again today with camera and speedlights, already went out on wednesday but im on a roll right now, so go with it i say lol have a fab weekend, hope its not too chilly over in Ireland xxx

Alexandra Starr The bridge cameras are great for the home user not such a creative mind like yourself, you had me laughing with the HCB part :-) The weather has been great but COLD lately should not be this cold, I blame the Government :-) Sounds great that you are out this week and today, I am really liking the videos Lexi keep them coming and I look forward to seeing what you get today, hopefully not the cold ♥ XXX

Try taking your card out and see if the switch on the side is locked? It may also be a dodgy card but in most cases the card could be locked OR the individual files are locked in the camera so try to see via your camera have you the images locked - Sean

thx ill try that.

Let me know if it works - Sean

Rambles with my camera Can you help me one last time plz. Can you tell me how can I put a video on my computer with my ad card and it doesn't get the error thingy on my ad car. And thank u for all ur help

Rambles with my camera SD*

Using a crappy card is not advisable for the main reason, you are capturing images that you love only to store them and possibly lose to a crappy card. Cards nowadays are really affordable, I would suggest changing it just to see and also has your card been cleared yet, and tried with an empty card?

is that message seen on the camera or when you are viewing it on your laptop/pc? Sean

so glad to hear that ♥ Sean

Thank you for letting me know and wishing you an abundance of fun and pleasure using your camera and consider subscribing if you haven't already ❤

Thank you! Just did it!

I really appreciate that I will be uploaded regular videos from this week on Sending love from Ireland

Yes :-)

I bought 3 cards already..I'm getting frustrated

Same did you ever figure it out

haha thank you most can't understand me :-)

When you are taking the files from the card to edit ghem are you taking them off the card PRIOR to editing?

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube i usually moved the files from the sd card to my tab to edit

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube i removed the card from the cam and put on the card reader to transfer files

are you still seeing the extra file inside your folder?

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube yes still there everytime i put in my tablet to transfer files i see it.

josephine minoza have u solved ur problem already? We have same camera and same problem. I just bought new memory card and it wont work

Have you tried what was said on the video guys? Have you tried to see if your firmware needs updated for the camera?

so glad

Maybe it's your attitude try watching it again seems to have worked for others 😀

My pleasure man glad it helped ♥ Sean

MrFox tube will it work

Did you watch the video?

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube yes but same problem sir again and again i put 4 memory card all shows same problem

Ok attach your camera to your pc and take the photos and videos from your card via your use lead. Then when you have all your cards and videos off your card clear your card via the pc.Then disconnect the camera from the pc turn it on and then off and see if it works with an empty card but make sure your card is not set to read only there's a switch at the side of the card. If you still have problems reformat the blank card if this still doesn't work check for firmware updates for your camera if this doesn't work sounds like your camera could be broken :-( hope this helps

@@Rambleswithmycameraonyoutube i have done all this... when i connect camera to pc it shows empty camera file when i put memory card in camera no menu or other button works

You did not tell me that you are not getting access to camera settings you said you are only getting a card error sounds like your camera is broke sorry I can't help you more take it to a camera shop ❤

Is the images showing on the back of the camera or is it not showing at all on the camera and not on your pc? Sean

its not showing at all sean

Gaga4Real so when you take the photos/videos can this not show in the image review after you take the shot? If there is no images after you take a photo in the camera review and its not recording on the card it may be down to a corrupted card. To rule out its not your camera Try another card to rule out camera error if you have not already done this - Sean

Sean, its not my camera it is my sd card. I tried my other sd card it works fine. The corrupted card says it cannot be used and when I connect to the computer it shows no footage. I had videos and photos in that corrupted sd card. Do you know how I can fix it? Its a transcend 64gb card.

I would try to connect your camera to your pc/laptop directly with the usb lead provided with the camera and transfer the file that way fingers crossed it should work, then once your card is transferred reformat the card. Just rereading your comment i looks as though you are already trying this? if you have only tried getting the images directly from the camera via lead try a card reader dongle they are only about $4 Let me know if this works - Sean

Damn as in your accent is shit or Damn as in you like it haha

Damn as in I can't understand what you are saying, where are you from?

Hi Miranda I shoot a D3300 and I dont use a Mac so I am not sure what it can be but the fact you have only 2mb on the card makes me wonder what image size you have your camera on, as the basic setting on the 3400 one image is 4mb so I can not see how you can get 2mb on the card if you get my drift. What image size setting have you currently on the card, how many images are you showing in the back of the camera. Have you tried another card? If the images are just test shots with no value or importance, delete all the images and reformat the card. Set the camera file size on jpeg and shoot some images try the card again in the Mac. If this doesnt work after trying 2 cards get a card reader you can pick one for $5 and try that - Sean

thank you so much

my pleasure let me know how you sort it thanks Sean

Ok so question, I have had the same issues as Miranda. Same camera, but I have a 64 GB SD card. I bought the camera, opened the SD card, both brand new with no damage, put it in, and poof I get the error. If I play with the card, pop it in and out a bunch of times, blow in the slot, flip it on and off, eventually I can get the message to disappear. I have reformatted the SD card multiple times, I have checked for the boogieman file you are referring to, but again, brand new stick, brand new camera, so I dont have that file either. Once I get it working, it will sometimes work for a few shots, sometimes as long as I am shooting, but no matter what happens, when I turn it off, and step away from my camera for an extended period of time, it always starts up with the error again. Sometimes it can take me up to 15 minutes of dinking with the SD card to get it to read properly the next time around... Any suggestions, short of getting a new card (which I have tried) or taking the camera in to be looked at? -DJ St. John

Sadly Miranda never got back to let us know if she got it sorted hopefully she will, but in your case not sure from your last part of your comment if you actually tried another card and it also happened but I would try a brand new card man. If it still happens then its the camera, then return the camera as its still in warranty, if it doesn't happen with the new card then its the card man and I would return the card and also a copy of the receipt of the new purchased card for reimbersment of that also. It is too hard to say where the fault lies, but something is clearly not right and as its a new card & camera there would be no dust etc so blowing should have no effect. I would definitely try another card for a week and test the life out of it, if no issues then sounds like its a dodgy card (is the cards good makes) , if you get same issues with the new card then its the camera and return it. Sorry I can not be more helpful I wish Miranda got back to us - Sean

Have you managed to take ANY photos with the camera? Are the cards formatted? Have you tried tried what I shown in the video? Sean

Rambles with my camera I haven't taken any photos, I got my camera on the 19th( 2 days ago) and I got the error. I wiped off and then formatted 2 of my older cards and the error was still there. I got a new card and the error is still there.

Kenyah Dawson OK it is possible that it's the camera but it is more than likely the cards. You didn't mention if you followed the steps I mentioned in the video and also have you reformatted the cards? The new card is strange getting this message and your not able to take a photo if it happens again turn off yiur camera THEN take out and reinsert your card to see if ghost helps but if you have tried the above and still no joy I would take it back to the shop where you got the camera for them to replace the camera. If you can not visit the actual shop take the into another camera should and I'm sure they will be able to try the steps to test the camera. Good luck with this and keep me updated ❤Sean

Sibi Fernandez with what exactly Sibi?

Rambles with my camera my camera nikon d3400 is not used for 4 months. While putting memory,a text showing.This memory card cannot be used.Card may be damaged. Insert another card.And I format it and again it is showing. Please help...

With your card still in your camera 1) turn in on then turn it off 2) take the card out and put it in again 3) turn it back on Try to see if that works let me know ❤Sean

Rambles with my camera not worked sean🤔

Sibi Fernandez have you tried another card?

Marvin have you worked on any of the images directly from the card rather than pulling them off the card and working them from a folder? Go into your card and open the folder with the images in and see if there anything other than jpeg/raw/mpeg images in that specific folder . If there is any other files inside that folder with your images in it this may be because you have edited images directly from the card and you can delete that file. It may be a dodgy card, but check for any extra files in there and also make sure to eject the card from the pc/device. Pull all the images of the card/back up the files, then delete your card and reformat and also DO NOT delete files from the back of the camera man this too can create an error on the card Sean
