16GB Micro SDHC Card Problem

Ok I have an 8GB card for my Tilt but i just bought a 16GB card and I want to transfer my files from the 8gig to the 16gig. The problem is my pc (HP a230n) can't read either one of the cards. I know that it's because they are SDHC cards but I can't seem to find anything online that'll give my pc the capability to read them. Can anyone help me out?

how are you putting the cards into the pc
via a reader and adapter or maybe using the phones mass storage utility??
please enlighten us

The card came with an adapter so that's what I'm trying to use.

try using the phone as the reader u should get a pop up asking if you want to use as a usb mass storage device
hopefully the pc with then pickup the card
also try using on a different pc with both the adapter and the phones usb utility

I've done it that way before but it's a lot slower like that. I want the cards to actually work with the pc directly. Once I'm done transfering everything to the 16gig I'm gonna have the 8gig just sitting there so I figure I'd put it to use but it's kinda hard when I have to put it in my phone to use it.

I just finished transfering all my files to the 16gig through the phone but I would still like to be able to do it directly through my pc in the future.

then try and find a ppc tool thatll format the card
we know the ppc will pick it up but not the pc

THIS little bastard did the trick perfectly. No need for a firmware update.

job well odne then

Help! (irrelevant to current subject)

I know this is really 100% totally irrelevant, but its super important to me. Does anybody know how to get a micro-SD to work? I put it in the adapter and the adapter into a universal memory bank but Windows 7 can't seem to read it. All I need is to put files on it. Plz help me if u can.

Again, the most likely problem is that you have a microSDHC card (4GB+) but that you have an older SD card reader which isn't compatible with the higher-capacity SDHC cards. If that is the case, then you'll have to get a different reader, or just connect via your phone as mentioned above.
Apparently some older SD card readers can't even read cards above 1GB, incidentally.

[Q] MicroSD and Mac

I received my 16gb MicroSD card today, and happily slapped it into my GTab. Question, and it appears fine on the Tablet itself, however when I then plug my Gtab into my Mac, only the built-in 16Gb are showing up to copy files. Is there a solution for this?

This is normal, the USB port mounting paradigm for the GTAB is only set to read the internal SDCard. With the CM7 Experimental ROM, I think the mounting paradigm is set to only read the external MicroSD with the USB connected, I may be wrong about that though.

MicroSDHC not recognized...

When i got this tablet, it came with a 16 GB Lexar Micro SDHC card. The only problem is that my TF-101 doesn't recognize it even though it says preparing External Storage. I have a SD card adapter, but idk if it will work with a SDHC, so idk if I can format it to Fat32. Any ways to solve this?

Plug it into a PC if you can, and check what filesystem its formatted as. Then try reformat it to fat32.
And just to clarify, the "HC" part in SDHC simply stands for "High Capacity", which generally means SD cards larger than 2GB.
Some devices can have issues with certain SDHC cards (like my Wii and my N7B), but to my knowledge TF101 is not one of those devices.
Of course, that said, that doesnt mean some weird china-knockoff brand will work, but Lexar isnt that bad and shouldnt pose any issues imo.
So uh, yea, try reformatting it to fat32.

I've several MicroSD cards. One of them, a 16GB one, is unable to work with TF using internal slot. The card works in my PC under Linux and/or Win7, but NOT in TF using internal slot. If I plug an external SD reader in the dock USB port, card is read without any problem.
Of course my other cards work like a charm with internal slot. Why? I don't know.
My solution: use this 'special' SD microUSB card in other device and buy a new one with my TF.

My Lexar 32gb class 10 quit working suddenly as well...the past couple of days it has not been recognized when in the micro SD slot BUT when I put it in an adapter and insert it in my dock it will work just fine. The only thing I have changed was update to the latest OC ICS kernels...wonder if that's the issue?

problem with micro sd on tablet

i formatted a sandisk 64gb micro sd to put into my tablet and start copying files to the micro sd via the memory card reader, there is nothing on the card prior to transferring the files but as soon as the green bar goes up it cancels and gives a 0x80070037 error with unrecognised device and prompts me to check the micro sd for errors, i proceed to do so and it finds nothing, i retry a couple of times and i get the same error, i try different memory card readers and cables and they all give the same error.
i then attempt to transfer my files while the micro sd is in the tablet and surprisingly it's transferring the files fine, i'm a bit confused by that and i was wondering if anyone can give some hindsight as to what is going on?
there is obviously a problem with the micro sd because i can't get any data on it while it's in the memory card reader and i will have to get a new micro sd card eventually, i'm not buying anymore sandisk memory after this, reason why is because my 32gb micro sd also by sandisk has the same problem, both brought within 9 months of each other, that's £60 down the drain, for now the 64gb will have to do till i buy a new micro sd card but this is just ridiculous, i wasted 4 hours trying to sort this problem out with no progress and i'm exhausted, any ideas or solutions would be helpful.
i've tested my usb ports extensively (so it can't be the usb ports causing the problem), and formatted the sandisk micro sd cards multiple times (to no avail), i've tried 2 different usb drives, and 3 different micro sd cards from samsung and a no name brand and they transfer the same data fine, but as soon as i plug in the sandisk and transfer the data to them i get the errors so i've pinpointed out where the problem lies, i just want a solution to sort all of this out so any help would be grateful.
if i get any changes in the situation i will update in this topic.

Just a update, contacted amazon and will be getting a refund for both micro sd cards, thanks god for that, won't be buying SanDisk ever again after that.

Unreconized device is it has lost connection to your tab. I've had the same problem. Installed a new usb 3.0 card and plugged into that, and the problem went away. if you watch my computer you will see your device disappear and reappear.

i tested out both micro sd cards on a memory card reader not from the tablet and the data transferred fine when the micro sd card was installed on the tablet, amazon have agreed to refund the 64gb sandisk but not the 32gb micro sd unfortunately i'm going to buy a usb 3.0 memory card reader and see if i get better results with the 32gb micro sd, not confident that i will though, just going to use the 32gb for something else till it dies, nothing else i can do with it, they can't replace it because it's over a year old and i left it too late.
just plugged in the 32gb micro sd card now and the memory card is not disappearing and reappearing in my computer like you said, the only time i get problem is when data is copied to it then the device disappears.
