[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 311096, member: 1991"] OK, info from difficult child 3. 'If you're using a easy child, open My Computer and right-click on the device when it's mounted. Select "format..." and from there a list of options will appear. If you haven't been able to read from or write to the disk reliably, do not select Quick Format, just let it take its time. Otherwise, select Quick Format then start the formatting process. If you have a Mac, open Disk Ultility. Then select the chosen device from the list, then switch to the "erase" tab. From there you can choose how you want to erase the device. If you select security options, you can choose whether or not you want to erase just the files, or the data as well so they cannot be recovered. Outside of security options you can rename it and choose its format; if you want a disk that will work with a easy child as well then choose MS-DOS (FAT). Mind you, most SD cards come in this format, so you should probably select it anyway. Once you're done choosing your settings, click "erase".' OK, the gospel form the horse's mouth. Is it any wonder we want this kid to study IT? Marg [/QUOTE]
