Hello Peloba,

it seems that your camera Storage Menu is not complete and the camera is not able to read the configuration. This could belonging to your described issues with the SD Card, that the camera is not able to read the SD card.  
Very important is to double check the **System Messages** in the **admin** menu of the camera for any **warnings** or **errors**.
