Roku Device Features, Settings & Updates

Hi, I have Roku 2 with Micro SD in, can't recall if ever recognized or formatted, but still get apps loading with message to install an SD card...Any suggestions? New one, specific brand?

You can see whether or not the microSD card is recognized from Settings->System->About.  You shouldn't be getting any reloading if you have a card installed.  If you think there's one in there, eject it and try to reinsert it.  It usually takes pushing it in with your fingernail to get it to click into place.

Hi, thanks for that. I have inserted the micro sd in completely. In system, about, the message i get next to MicroSD is "not installed". Do i just need to try a new MicroSD?

That would be a good idea.  You can also try to format the card in a computer (if you have a computer that accepts microSD cards) and then try it again in the Roku.

Micro SD cards not my specialty the roku rec is class 2 or higher min of 2gb, guess i should go bigger bc why not?

Rokus are very finicky in which microSD cards will work, so bigger may not be better and definitely isn't necessary.
