• How to format FAT32 Memory Stick that says that it is read only

  I have a 8 GB USB key (directly from the provider) that I can't write or re-form.  Under sharing and permissions of the USB it says that my access is read-only.  If I try to delete it via disk utility I get an error message saying it didn't - I see by looking at the "details" that permission has been denied.

  I tried to re - format the USB on a windows as well without success.

  Suspect it may be defective and are returned to the vendor but I was wondering if anyone has something else to think about.

  Thanks in advance,

  Cliff

  If you can not select the drive and delete and back in shape, then it is a bad drive. No new flash drive would come from a manufacturer as read only anyway. Even your mac must write in this format.

• Satellite A100 - how to remove the Memory Stick Pro DUO card slot

  Hey,.

  I really need help with how to remove my Memory Stick Pro DUO card slot.

  The laptop read the stick very well and I can see all the files into it but I can't seem to get out. I tried to push a little to get out, but it does not work and it's also pretty far in so I can't get out.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Thank you

  Hello

  To my knowledge there is no extra help for Memory Stick Pro DUO removing as on the PCMCIA port.
  You should try to get him out. If you n t manage to pull him out with you fingers, you can use a pair of tweezers.
  But be careful.

• Satellite T130: 5-in-1 Bridge Media Slot - how to use the Memory Stick?

  Hi all

  My T130 has a bridge 5-in-1 Media Slot for SD card / Memory Stick / Memory Stick Pro / MultiMedia Card and xD-Picture Card.

  But how it should work with a Memory Stick? Its smaller SD card and just fall into the slot (no klick and no contact - and no easy way to get it out with your fingers).

  Do need me an adapter for this (mentioned nowhere in the manual)?

  On my old Sony Vaio, I have two slots, SD and Memory Stick - but how should this work with one slot on T130?

  > But how it should work with a Memory Stick? Its smaller SD card and just fall into the slot (no klick and no contact - and no easy way to get it out with your fingers).

  Need an adapter for the Memory Stick!

  Notes; You can use only Memory Stick 128 MB and 256 MB.

• Satellite P300 - how to insert a memory stick?

  Sorry my bad English, but I need help with my 5 in 1 card reader.

  In the manual of my Satellite P300 stand that I use:
  SD, SDHC, MMC, MEMORY STICK (PRO) cards and xD.

  I think, means 5 in 1 - is 1 slot for the whole of this map. is it wrong? My laptop have 1 location for these cards.

  I have no problem to insert an SD card in, but a MEMORY STICK card is a smaller format.
  Is there a special adapter? What do I insert the MEMORY STICK in this machine slot?

  THX

  Hello!

  Yes, 5 to 1 means that, in this card reader, you can use these 5 different memory cards.

  I n t have a memory stick but normally it of pretty easy to insert. In my opinion, not useful to insert the card in the middle of the slot. But be careful and do not force.
  Check it!

  Furthermore, memory stick duo/Pro duo are not compatible. Make sure that normal memory.

  Good bye

• How to fix a corrupt Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo

  Hello, I have a problem with my Memory Stick. I'm sure that it's corrupt, because I get the usual "No. Memory Stick detected" messages.

  The problem here is that I need to know how to solve this problem by using Windows. I have a memory stick reader that I consider using a USB port and whenever I try to open the location, the computer either locks up until I have remove the stick, or he says no disc inserted in the drive. Once, I managed to get my other computer to say "Device must be formatted before use", but after clicking the format, he said that couldn't be. It seems that Windows just hate my Memory Stick but I really want to solve this problem.

  If someone think of an answer, please answer. I'll give you more information if necessary.

  Insert the disc, but do not attempt to access or open.  Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / disk management.  The disc appear?  If Yes, go to the disc and try to format it using disk management features (I guess since you've already tried to format that it contains no data to record).  If it does not, there is probably a problem with the memory stick (or the USB port - try another port) as only corruption would not prevent from being recognized as valid a drive.

  Let us know what happens.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
