I have a 1GB SD card and a Nikon D50 - everything was great for a month

formatted". I used the camera to format it - all was fine until a few
hours later - not formatted - then it won't format at all in the camera.
Yet from in a card reader on the computer I can read and transfer files.
I think I did a bad thing a few weeks ago and erased images on the card
from the computer, not the camera. I know that is a bad thing. ...
Thanks for the advice and suggestions posted here.
Well, I took my camera back to Nikon Canada this morning (only 30
minutes from home) and they took two minutes and checked the camera and
it formatted and read their SD card fine. So I purchased a new card
from Henry's and all is fine - it was not the camera.
I will never use the computer to write, erase, format or "anything" to
the SD card again. I used to have a CF card with my old Coolpix5700 and
would erase and write to the disk all the time with no problems.
But I blew this card. Luckily there were no images on it.
To make you feel better...
I seriously doubt you blew the card. Sometimes they just go bad.
