- To fix this error,
- go to: Menu / Function / Tools / Tab: / menu item: Initialize – choose the card slot A or B with the mal-formatted card.
- or view how to access the initializing procedure here TBA
- To avoid this problem: You may get this error after you the SD card has been formatted in another device but the camera (e.g. on your computer, using a memory card reader). If you are trying to delete footage, initialize the card within the camera instead. This page is taken from the Vixia manual, the full manual you can find linked in our list of bookable resources under Vixia.

- When the projector control system is “out of synch”with the projector.
- Symptom: “System off” does not turn the projector off, but also “System on” does not turn.
- Workaround: From the control panel Home screen, access soft button “system tools”
- Here you can manually turn the projector on/off (and the close the screens)

Troubleshooting the wireless headsets in the TV viewing area

- For lack of small group work areas, the 3 headsets help sharing the LRCROOMCOED433. They amplify the sound for the TV viewing audience, allowing to turn the TV volume down so as not to disturb other users in the shared area.
- No sound?
- headsets turned on?
- headset volume turned up?
- headsets batteries dead?
- transmitter turned on?
- Static noise on headsets?
- headsets batteries weak?
- no line of sight to transmitter?
- Other things you can try:
- a different headset. We have 3.
- a different transmitter. We have 2.

- When coming to my desk today, my laptop made a grinding noise. Even worse, the noise later decreased, sounding like grinding to a halt.
- here is a recording:
- Fan? That cannot be good with a laptop that always ran hot (video card cannot be disabled during normal, non-gaming operation).
- keyboard developed a mind of its own after half a year: cursor began jumping at random.
- side panels: started peeling off within the first few weeks
