Troubleshooting
- Card Not Recognized:
- Ensure the card is fully and correctly inserted into the device slot.
- Restart your device.

- Format the card (after backing up data) to resolve potential file system fragmentation.
- Cannot Write/Delete Files:
- Check if the card has a physical write-protect switch (if using an SD adapter). Ensure it is in the "unlocked" position.
- Verify that the card is not full.
- Check file permissions on your device or computer.
- Data Corruption:
- Always safely eject the card before removal.
- Avoid removing the card during data transfer or recording.
