I doubt it's the magnet. Can you attach the usb cable and format it from your PC?

hate to be captain obvious but, did you try a reboot?
how about seeing if a memory card reader can read it. or if the pc can read it using the adapter for micro sd
try popping it into another device like another phone or camera or something just to see if it is a prob with the memory card itself or the n900 reading it
if it is indeed a issue with n900 not reding it then try popping your regular ol 2 GB or 4 GB or what ever else ya got in micro sdhc and see what happens

I bought a 16gb memory card, but my N900 can't even see it! At first it could see it, then I followed the advice on this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=49752&page=2
And now it's disappeared! =( Help please!

as far as my 16GB sd card for my n900 that seems to be working fine. i formatted it with the n900 as soon as i brought it and haven't really had probs with it since other then the fact that its slow. i think its only a class 2 though.
sad thing is that, it is possible that you simply have a faulty 16 GB micro sd card and that kinda sucks. good thing is lightening doesn't strike twice so hopefully the new one will work flawlessly for you. good luck

Thank you! Fingers crossed, it won't happen again...*fingers crossed* So when youhad the 16gb card, did you just put it in the n900 to make it work or did you do something else besides the check?

ummm... i think i just stuck it in right out of the box. then i formatted it on the actual n900 and bading bing bada boom no more memory card worries. when i had the issue with my wifes 4GB i did the file system check on the pc and then stuck it back into the phone.
My 16 GB has been in and out of all kinda phones. my poor memory card has no morals. it is a data slut. cameras, phones, adapters, you name it and i have transfer data via of. seems to be working fine. i got mines from ebay. it is san disk.
