Been there, done that. We made the steps so easy, it's like you're walking on water:
An age-old question; but one that has been answered time, and time again.
Here's our foolproof way of getting it done:
Device Care
No, the camera is not outfitted with water resistance. It is not recommended to directly-expose the camera to liquids of any type.
The S2 is designed to be by your side, always ready to capture the next big thing. As a best practice, we recommend to avoid exposing your camera to environments containing extreme heat, cold, humidity, and dust.
Troubleshooting & Repairs
This'll take some detective work. But don't worry, because we did all the detect-ing for you.
To solve the mystery, start here.
How long has it been since the camera and memory card last saw each other?
Only kidding🙃
Check our MicroSD card troubleshooting guide for clear step-by-step instructions on how to determine the cause, and then fix it like it never even happened.
This is your answer. For the record, we don't know why it's called that.
But we do know how to do it😉
Just select your computer's operating system below that will handle the reformatting task, and you'll be whisked away to the solution.
