Did you format the card? The card must be formatted either with the camera or your computer.

Secondly, the error could be the result of using an adapter. Adapters for are not always accepted by cameras.

Go to the camera maker's website, it will give the necessary requirements for memory cards as well as how to install them.

Good luck
