It's the WRONG CARD. Read the 505 specs: 2G MAX! See here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14388 or on the Sony Site. Last edited by kennyc; 09-23-2009 at 05:47 AM. |

The V1.1 firmware added "Support for SDHC memory cards that have a capacity of more than 4 GB", so it's not quite that straighforward.

Well, the OP clearly demonstrated that whatever card it is, it doesn't work. |

Try reformatting the card with SD Formatter. For some cards Windows' format is not 100% correct and it may appear to work in some cases and fail in others. SD Formatter usually fixes everything, unless the card is physically bad.
And yes, the 1.1 and above firmware should work with SDHC cards (4GB and above). |
