Video won't show up on camera, help.....
I took two videos with my Canon A540 camera and saved them in my documents. I bought a bigger new memory card and i want to put these videos on the new card. I put the card in my card reader, dragged and dropped the videos from my documents on the new card. I can play the videos while they're on the new card in the card reader, but when I put the card in my camera the videos will not show up there. Am I doing something wrong?

Do some cameras require that the new sd card be 'formatted' in the camera ? If you camera menu has some kind of 'format' command, then try that (format in camera, then put in computer's reader and copy the files over, then put card back in camera to check if they're now viewable).

Dave is probably onto the right track. I only suggested what I did because I did it, not knowing the HD was worthless in the camera. I did get it to work in my PDA, so no loss.
