    Game Camera Problem

    I have an older model Moultrie (don't remember the exact nomenclature). Anyway, I put batteries in it, put in a sd card, turned the switch to SET-UP and set the date and time and then turned it back to AUTO. Went back 2 weeks later and it hadn't taken any pictures. Has anyone had this happen or know how to correct it? Thanks.

    Have you tried reformatting the sd card? When mine act screwy this always fixes the problem.

      Buddy got a brand new camera last week and it wouldn't take any pictures either. Turns out the SD card was bad. He put a new card in there and it worked perfectly. So may be the card (if it's a new one) which may be one of the cheaper solutions.

        Lance, how many GB's is the card?

        It won't function properly with SD cards over 2 GB.

          I'm sure you have checked this but make sure the card is turned on. This happened to me.

            I've got a old moutrie and it doesn't take pics no more either. I think the photo cell went out. It will take manually but no motion

                My cards are 2GB. They are not the Moultrie cards. I just bought a cheap 2GB card. Can you use any SD card? How do you reformat the card?

                    Put card in comp. and right click and click format.....

                    You can do the same thing in a digital camera that takes SD cards......
