Did you format it in the camera?

Your camera is not a thumb drive. The Operating System will see the device as “busy”, and cannot access the memory card.

Use a card reader to read the memory card. Or, use the Canon software, which you can download from Canon’s web site.

You're assuming that the problem is in reading the card. As I read the OP's post, he can't get the camera to write to the card.

That error message just seems a bit too long to come from the camera. Maybe, it did.

Maybe the card has not been formatted, or is actually a bad or incompatible memory card. It could be the write protect tab, too.

I think we need more precise information from the OP.
