What model is the camera (exactly) & what memory card have you bought (full label info). It is possible the camera won't recognize more modern cards.

That particular camera can only use SD memory cards. SDHC, SDXC, or and other letters following SD makes the card incompatible with the camera. There are no firmware updates for the camera to use the higher capacity SD cards since the camera is fairly old technology wise. The manual indicates 16MB and 128MB cards only, but you might be able to use a 2GB card as long as it is labeled only SD. Unfortunately these are becoming harder to find in stores, so you will need to search the internet.
