Why isn't my camera recognizing the memory card?

Fujifilm Finepix A170 10.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom and 2.7 inch LCD

Every time I turn on my camera and take photos, I'm limited to just three pictures because it only uses the internal memory. It seems the camera can't read or recognize the memory card. I've tried inserting the card in every possible way, but it never seems to fit properly. Normally, the card should click into place, and when pushed again, it should pop out - but that doesn’t happen. Based on what I’ve seen online and in the instruction manual, the camera supports memory cards up to 32 GB. I suspect the issue is that the card isn’t sliding in all the way and can’t reach the internal pins.

1-Did you review your owner's manual, using SD memory cards, formatting them before use in your camera?

2-Are you using recommended memory cards? Precautions are mentioned against using other cards that may not work.

3-Memory cards may have a mechanical lock on them. Be sure to unlock it before inserting it into your camera.

4-Be very cautious of incorrectly inserting memory cards otherwise force may damage the card, camera slot and electrical connections - pins that mate to the memory card. SD cards have a chamfer to prevent inserting the card incorrectly. When inserted correctly, the chamfer allows correct insertion. If the card slot is damaged from forcing a memory card into the camera, there may be other damage that might require professional in repairs.
