Hi Anne,
Yes, the same situation was going on for me as well. The difference
being that I was only able to put 14 to 15 books on the card as
opposed to my husbands many which caused me to run Disc Utilities
where I found the problem. The card began giving me all kinds of
issues, which, could have been due to the card or some upgrades. So,
I thought that perhaps erasing the data and starting over would get
rid of any corrupted files and free up disc space; however that did
not happen. No matter what I seem to do the proper capacity will not
display.
Perhaps I should try another reformat and not use the MS-Dos one,
though the rest seem particular to the Mac environment.
It's amazing how a little, tiny card can make one person feel so
entirely stupid...smile.
Take care, and thanks so much.

I have a 2 G. SD card which, when I put into my Mac and run Disc
Utilities on, tells me I have only 960 MB available. I have erased
and reformatted the card with MS-Dos formatting as is what I
thought was needed in order to function properly in the Victor
Stream. Well, it was functioning properly in the Victor Stream,
but now things are an absolute mess.
Anyway, I can't seem to figure out how to not partition the card
when it reformats, nor can I get the memory allocation to ever
display itself as 2 G.
I'm not familiar with the Victor Stream, but I use SD Cards in my
Milestone 311. I've never had to reformat an SD Card. I simply put
the new SD Card into my Milestone and connect the Milestone to my
Mac. It shows up on my Desktop as "No Name". I rename the card, open
it and transfer whatever I want to the Card. The Mac and the
Milestone both give me an accurate reading of the space used and the
space available.
Sorry not to be of more help.
Cheers,
Anne
