Welcome to Android Central! Insert the card into your computer instead. Does the computer recognize it? If it doesn't, the card may be defective or counterfeit--bring it back to the store for an exchange or refund.

My card works in the computer. I don't have any other card at the present to try.

Thanks in advance,

Thom

Download and run the app SD Insight (https://forums.androidcentral.com/e.../details?id=com.humanlogic.sdi&token=Y9aKNE6V)

It will give you all of the information about the card that you need to know. The "real" size, the "real" manufacturer, etc. Hoping that you got your card from a legitimate retailer and that it's not counterfeit. It you bought it on eBay and it turns out to be fake, report it and get your money back.
