just take it back to walmart and tell them it don't work. you have the receipt....

 

Just found out the wife does not have the receipt.

 

take it back without the receipt and exchange it for the one that will work. you should only need the receipt if you want a refund. Now, if you threw away the package with the barcode on it you're stuck with it.

 

you will need at most a 2gb card. 4gb and up are considered "SDHighCapacity" and if you look at it in the long run. I work at officemax and we sell the 4gb cards for 9.99 on sale pretty much weekly, the 2gb run 7.99. Cost of shipping???:crikey:...my point exactly

just my 2 cents

 

Since it seems that a lot of new electronics these days seems to be HC compatible, you might as well keep it as sooner or later you'll likely own an HC compatible device.

 

WalMart has a no questions asked return policy.

Just get a store credit.

 

I'll just toss it in a drawer and use it later I guess. 'Course by then it'll probably be lost.

Thanks guys.

 

Sorry to say but, I went through a similar thing a few months back, but I bought the Micro-SD HC. There are very few electronics that actually use the HC SD cards. The biggest card you're going to find is a 2gb. They do Not make a regular 4gb card at this point.

 

My point exactly. Pretty much all new devices (phones, cameras, digital frames, etc.) will use the HC cards. just check the box to see if it has SDHC on it. Good luck with it though. They are really dropping price so just give it as a gift if you buy someone a digital frame or something.

 

I would take it back and at least get a store credit since it doesn't work.

 

I don't know how y'alls walmarts work but here they won't take anything back at all without a receipt. Worth a shot though

 

Ask them why they don't follow the Walmart policy.

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. - Return Policy

 

Usually they'll take it back and give store credit with no receipt.

 

is it diffrent than a normal SD card?

I know my Pioneer HU takes SD cards, ill look into it to see if it will work and if it does ill prob get it off your hands to help ya out, ive been thinkin about buyin one anyway and theres no reall rush for it that would have me run to Bestbuy or wall mart to have it this second

 

Yes its different, thats why he can't use it. It is an SDHC not a regular SD. SDHC is a High Capacity card. If your radio is that new it may work. I'm sure he'd love to sell it to you though. http://www.steves-digicams.com/pdf/sdhc.pdf

 

I dont think it will, I looked it up last night and just says it takes an SD card, and then the SD card isnt backwards compatiable...boo.

Sorry man

 

Thanks for the continued interest. To be honest, I gave up after post #8. If someone does have a need for this, I'll do the swap, but if it's a hassle, I'll save it until something I buy will use it.
