I've just done a quick search, and can't find any previous posts on this.

I did a backup this morning PCSuite 1.3.1 (Backup and Restore 1.4.3.0), it failed on two areas - Firstly I got an error saying that Agendas could not be backed up, so I chose to skip this - secondly I got cannot backup D:, again I thought weird, but chose to skip.
The backup reported as failed, so I rebooted the phone and was about to have another go, when I noticed that the memory status displayed on Handy Day 2.5 read 0 for Memory Stick! I know for a fact that the stick has 5.8MB free so this can't be right.
I presumed it was an error on Handy Days side, so I went on to attempt another backup. This time however I couldn't select Memory stick as a backup option. After checking the phone and files, I can indeed concour that the phone refuses to register that the memory stick is plugged in.
I have tried rebooting - both with and without the stick inserted.
I have tried leaving the stick in for 10 minutes
I have tried leaving the stick out for 10 minutes.

No sign of the stick being inserted.

Help!
