The formats between the two devices may be different so that your camera wont read the card.
Live to hunt, hunt to live.

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell
the difference.

i think A-BOW-NUT is right. i'm haveing the same problems with a wildview i have.
but my problem is it was working in my regular camera. i looked at the first 400 pics. then the second time it said "unable to read card" (???) then i put another card from my home camera,took 400 pics and the same thing "unable to view card" i have a message into the wildview office. i'll let you know what they tell me

I’ve have the same problem, Cuddeback says Not all SD-based cameras can view images so I brought my SD card into Best Buy and tried several cameras to find one that would but couldn’t….. Just maybe Cuddeback wants us to buy their “CuddeView Field Viewer”

A_bow_nut has it right. they are formated differently. I use my gps (which will read any sd card) when I';m in the field. But when I'm at home I bought a media card reader at target for $10 that plugs into my computer via a usb port and that will read any sd card as well regardless of format. it will also read compact flash and a few other types of cards.
