I have had my D3100 for a year or so and today it does not detect my memory card... what to dooooo it just displays -E- and does not even blink green or red when i insert the memory card
No fear, that doesn't automatically mean it's your camera. It's possible you may have damaged a pin on the card that's stopping the camera from recognizing it. You will only know for sure when you try another card.
I can't format on Camera D3100, doesn't allow me to. I've tried other cards - it's like my camera doesn't recognize there is an SD card in it at all. Please help!
I've tried ALL the above. Formatting on iMac doesn't do it. I can't format on Camera D3100, doesn't allow me to. I've tried other cards - it's like my camera doesn't recognize there is an SD card in it at all. Please help!
In response to fotojack, the issue is that I can't "format the memory card" because the camera doesn't recognize that there's even a card in the camera - the option is greyed out meaning I can't click it to get the desired result.
Hi Marcel - I tried the "reset setup options" under the menu - to no avail. I am not familiar with any other "camera reset" option if there is one. Thanks again for your help.
