Formatting cards (Macintosh)
There may be instances where you may wish to format a card in the Microtech ZiO! rather than
in the original digital device (camera, MP3 player, etc.). There may also be times when you may
be required or prompted to format your card. As such, please read the information in this
section for information on formatting either CompactFlash, MultiMediaCard / Secure Digital,
SmartMedia, or Memory Stick cards.
WARNING: Formatting a card will completely erase all data currently stored on the card. If there
are important images or files you wish to safeguard for later use, make a backup copy on your
hard drive, CDR drive, or other type of removable media.
Formatting CompactFlash, MultiMediaCard, Secure Digital, and Memory Stick cards:
NOTE: Screenshots below may vary slightly from those on your computer.
1.
Select the "Erase Disk" command in the "Special" menu (as shown below).
2.
As formatting a card will completely erase any data currently stored on the card, a dialog
box will appear asking if you wish to completely erase the card as shown below. Click
"Erase" to begin formatting the card. Or, click "Cancel" if you do not wish to format the
card.
