hey i took my sd card out of my gopro, copied the stuff to my mac and then manually cleared the items off the sd card, so when i open it on my computer in the finder there is nothing there. the problem is when i put it back in my gopro the gopro says the card is full. so im assuming i didnt properly delete the files however im not seeing them in the folder. any help!?

you must empty your trash while the go pro is plugged in and on.

Try dragging all of the files into the trash instead of just deleting them

this happened to me so much last season and i had no idea what to do
eventually it happened on all three of my sd cards
if you have a mac
connect your sd card via go pro or cardreader or whatever
go to disk utilities and click on the card and restore or something or erase all i forgot its been a while
but you can figure it out from there im guessing
hope that helps

that way works for me
also if u have a pc u can plug in the sd card and it should show a transparent folder marked something like trashes with transparent icons of all your files
delete that and u should be good to go

just make sure you move everything to the trash, and empty trash immediately while the card/gopro is still attached or plugged in.
