Formatting cards (Macintosh - continued)
Formatting SmartMedia cards:
Unlike CompactFlash, MultiMediaCard, Memory Stick and Secure Digital cards, SmartMedia
cards cannot be formatted on a Macintosh using the ZiO! SmartMedia reader. SmartMedia
cards should be formatted on the device they are being used with (such as a digital camera, an
MP3 player, or a handheld PC equipped with a SmartMedia slot). If you attempt to format a
SmartMedia card using the "Erase Disk" command in the "Special" menu (shown below - left)
you will first see a dialog asking if you wish to completely erase the card (below - right). Click
"Cancel."
If you click "Erase," a message will
appear advising that SmartMedia for-
matting is not supported. Click "OK."
You will then receive a message
advising that the formatting (erase)
attempt failed. Click "OK" and format
the card in your digital device.
