Cant format sd card - JVC GR-D275 Mini DV Digital Camcorder

A) Please don't shout.
B) What method are you using to transfer the images to your computer ?

You can erase in the camera, or format the SD card. Or open Start Menu, Computer, Click on the SD card, open, select ALL, delete, OR, right click on the SD card, format.

normally when this occurs, its means the SD card is dead and u will need to replace it.

try connecting the sd card into a different computer or another external SD card reader. If it shows up . right click and click format. If it says it cant format it it means the card needs to be replaced.

Get a Multimedia card reader for yourself. Plugin in the card reader in computer and insert the SD card in it. Once you see the SD Card in My computer that means your card reader is able to read the SD card that you have inserted. You can right click on the icon and click format. Do a quick format and choose file system as FAT32.
or
You can use SD Card Formatter and can follow their manual. I think that will also work for you. http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/

Make sure, first of all, that your camera can use SDHC cards. Some can only use SD cards. Then, make sure the slide switch on the side of the card is in the unlocked position. Only format in the camera...never in the computer.

The lever on your SD card might be turned the wrong way so the SD card is reading protective.
Please turn the lever and try again.

The SD card might not be supported by the model: Your camera Memory card support is: SD/MMC up to 2 Gigabyte.

The SD card might not be faulty, try another card, since the camera could give you a message like the one you're experiencing.
Try with a different SD card that is supported by the camera.

Your sd card may have too much memory or it may be an hd
