SD Cards

[Paradox]

(As much as I hate posting non-Elliquiy-related problems on this board, I know of nowhere else to ask this.)

I just have a quick question-- my new phone (the Nokia Intrigue) has SD-card capability. I have an SD card for my digital camera. Would that be compatible with my phone?

Y'all know I'm no good with all these newfangled cell phone machines, so I didn't want to try force the card in their there in case it's too big for the port (as I suspect is the case, since it specifies "microSD", which sounds different than regular ol' fashion SD)

Ah yes, the micro/mini/actual SD issue.

Most of the micros and minis come with adapters that permit them to fit into larger slots.  If yours doesn't, what you may need to do is purchase the correct SD card for your new device, and then look into alternate methods to transfer the data from the old card to the new.

If they are the same size, they are compatible.  My husband used to work for a camera store that also did cell phones.  Now, he also mentioned that there are two different sizes of SD card, so you may still have that issue, but if it slides in easily, the data should be readable.

The Wikipedia article has a nice size reference for the micro.  The mini is larger, and the original is larger still.

All SD cards are compatible - as long as you're going from smaller to larger with the adapters. Obviously, you can't get a larger one into a smaller one, even with lots of lube.

Coffee, meet monitor.

That's what she said? >:)

Mk. That answers my question; thanks y'all.

Here's a new one. I just tried to sign out, and the system told me--

An Error Has Occurred!
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.

How am I supposed to log out before I log out!? It must come with the territory of having a username like Paradox  :P

Sup, dawg, I heard you like logging out...

[Marguerite]

Try clearing out your cookies, it did that to me on IE and when I switched to Firefox it was fine.

I had a feeling you'd bring that up  *smirk*

I am using firefox. It still happens every once in a while, but it's no big deal.

[Marguerite]

I still cannot believe it took me a few years on IE to finally switch over to Firefox. I plan to reward my sister with something for pushing me to get it.

I have brought dishonor upon myself and my family.

Ungh.  Now I have to find a new pocket to live in!  -grumbles and starts packing boxes-

[Paradox]

Silly Ket; I'm a distant descendant of Jesus, so don't worry-- give me another day or two, and I'll rise again, good as new.

You always seem to rise for any occasion.
