Forgive me if it's in the wrong forum. Mod's please move if required.

Just put my Micro SD from my 6275 into my N95, and it's asking for a password. I tried all my usual ones, including the nokia defaults. But no joy. The net seems to tell me to download a file manager, then search for mmcstore, which I can't find on my laptop at all, or searching through the phone.

It's not a huge issue, but thought I would my spare one in my girlfriends camera, the one that came with the n95 works perfectly. Seems like a waste though.

Any thoughts?

If there is nothing you need on the card, will the original or the new phone let you format the card using the phones memory card format utility?

Yeah I've already formatted it on the old phone, still won't show up on the new one though.

So the new phone can't format it? Do you have a USB reader that you could try and format it on a computer with?

I've tried putting it in the laptop card reader, it refuses to show. Same if I put it in the n95, then try connect it in non pc suite mode, but it asks for the password straight away.

try this im not sure if it will work or not but put the sd card into your old phone press options and then goto reset password if it asks for the password enter the default one eg 1234 or 0000. if that works put it in to your new phone and try it out. if all that doesn't work need im realy sorry i can't help you maybe google can

on the laptop, under file explorer window's tools/folder options/view is the show hidden files and folders set to show? i presume you have a windows xp.

Put it in the old phone and remove the lock codes.
