    orange blinking p2 lights

    Posted by Jaenet Guggenheim on August 1, 2009 at 2:27 pm

    using rugged lacie 500, via computer to down load hvx hd files.

    i accidentally unplugged the 1394 cable from the camera before ejecting the no name files.

    i have reformatted both p2 cards. but they still blink orange when i go to pc mode.

    what does this mean? can i fix my p2 cards?

    actually what i did wrong was to turn off the computer before ejecting the p2 card no names. that’s what i did, not pulling out the cable.

    i reformatted the two p2 cards, but when it comes time to down load via 1394 device, to the lacie rugged 500 hd, the two p2 card slots blink orange.

    is this salvagable? if so how? or have i just blown out two p2 cards?

    thanks,

    jaenet

    Blinking Orange means it is accessing the data on the cards.

    Do you see any of your clips when you playback from your camera (MCR mode)?
