OKay I have a true newbie question, last year for my birthday I got this really nice digital camera with a 2 gig disk for my birthday. Well some reason it keeps saying the disk is full though I have deleted all the pictures on the disk. Do I have to do something more than trashing the items on the camera to fully get rid of the data on the disk? If so how do I go about doing that?Thanks in advance

trashing the items on the camera to fully get rid of the data on the disk Whay do you mean by trashing the items????? What items?If you have truly deleted everything on the memory stick, try going into the menu, find the location for memory and see if it has an option to reformat the memory stick.

hey hunn,
did you try reformatting the disk? that may help. it happened a few times to me as well. i have a 1 gig and first it would only let me hold like 6 pictures. i reformatted and i takes about 1500 now :smile:

If your computer has a slot for it.. take the disk out.. stick it in your computer.. and see what comes up.

By "Items" I meant pictures, sorry I suppose I could have been more clear. It acts like I have 800 and something pictures on it when I don't. Like when I take a picture it'll say the picture number is 851 but it's the only picture on the camera.I'll check and see if there is a reformat option tonight when I get home.

Are the pictures taking up space? or is that just the picture counter?I have taken like 50 pictures.. deleted them.. and it keeps counting.. so.. I'm on like 56.. however, they aren't actually saved to my camra..It might just be that it keeps counting up.. rather then there actually being pictures saved on it..

Ive never tried this but you can creat other folders on teh memory stick. Maybe there are pictures in another folder that the camera doesn't see yet is using space on the stick.

No it's actually taking up space becuase if I take like 3-4 pictures it tells me that I am out of memory, and it's a 2gig disk. So it's obviously still taking up space on my camera. :frowning:
Sdp- I'll check that as well because I know my camera has the option of folders. I got busy last night so I never got a chance to look at the reformating either.
