I am having the same problem the card in my camra works but i can't get the right format to get any other card to work i tried every format on the disk utilities
Zeran-
Format the card in your camera. There should be such an option somewhere in the camera's menu system, probably under tools.
If you are trying to format a USB thumb drive, an MS-DOS (FAT) format should work. Then you need to create the DCIM folder at the thumb drive's root level, and photos must have 8 character names plus suffix.

Make sure you SD card is not locked. I had the same prob. And unlocked the card and it worked great. (the lock is the little slide on the side of the SD card) hope this helps.
My wife has the 3rd gen Ipad and I wanted to upload photos taken over past few years. Bought the camera connector kit. Stuck a Sd card reader in my my mac book pro ( 2007 version) and copied images to it . Put SD card in camera connector kit and in to ipad...........NOTHING. Tried all the things like powere off etc etc etc.
Put SD card back in camera ...connected camera to Ipad via camera connector ...camera said...NO IMAGES....!
Put SD card back in macbook pro card reader and looked at it in Finder. Saw a folder called DCIM ...clicked it ....EMPTY ....but all photos were otherwise shown as saved to SD card.
So....highlighted all photos and dragged to DCIM folder
Put SD card back in camera connector kit and lo and behold all photos appeared on ipad.
It appears to be critical to save your photos to a DCIM folder first.
Am having the exact same problem with a new iPad 3rd gen and a new CCK. If all it takes is a subdir DCIM then why the blank didn't they put that in the directions and NOT waste all of our time? geez I almost threw the CCK out the window last night. And as a photographer, not all of my images are coming directly from a camera SD card "properly" tucked into a DCIM folder.
OK-I'm better now.
Thank you all for your enlightenment!
