Won't accept SD micro?

I got a new micro SD card with adaptor.  When I install it, the printer display shows a folder symbol but no files.  The same file on my old fullsized SD card shows up fine.

Any ideas?

It could be the SD card's filesytem especially if has a very large capacity.  It needs to be FAT32, if it is formatted exFAT it won't work.

Yeah, looks like I bought a useless SD card. Live and learn. Thanks.

If it is just the filesystem type, you can reformat it with the correct type (FAT32).
