Approved method of removing memory card from reader

In the past, I have just removed the memory card from the reader when I was finished with it, but I have since read that that is not good practice. The method mentioned in my book is "Click the tiny Eject button next to the card's name in the Source list, and then remove the card from the reader". The problem with that is that I have no such Eject button in my Source list, and no card name appears there, either. First of all, is it wrong to just remove the memory card without any preliminaries? Second, what do you do when there is no Eject button and no card name?

<but there is a link reading "CANON,,,DC>
what do you mean by "link"?
<....icons for 12 files appears>
are the 12 files =12photos or 12 folders?
if you see the photos, (usually DSC000143.jpg or similar) then create an empty folder on the desktop and drag & drop theses 12 photos on the empty folder. And that's it you now have uploaded the pics from card to computer.
Eject the card reader, drag to trash.
Then you can launch iPhoto.
Drag & drop that empty folder over iPhoto et vloia all your pics are imported to iPhoto.
You can now delete the empty folder to the trash.
or it's up to you where you want to put them. In iPhoto or anywhere else.
and that's it!

    Hi,
    Is there anyone to help me? I inserted a 64 MB SD card in the card reader slot of my Toshiba A100 model. It's the first time i have inserted the card. The card is inside the slot.

Please help me giving your idea to remove the card out from the slot.

    Hi
    In my knowledge the SD card slot doesnt has a any additional helps like the PCMCIA slot to remove the card.
    You have to remove it simply. Try to grab the card and move it out. You can try to use the pair of tweezers. Maybe it helps

  • HT204053 How do i remove credit card from account

    I used a gift visa and now that the funds have run out it won't let me even download free apps I can't find anyway to just remove credit card from my account so it just keeps giving me a billing error

    Click "Account" under Quick Links in the iTunes Store.
    From the account information page click "Edit" next to payment information and then select "None" under payment method.
    If "None" is not an option, contact iTunes Support:

  • HT1918 Trying to remove credit card from itunes account

    Trying to remove credit card from daughters itunes account. I erase the billing information and click continue but it will not allow me to exit and save without putting some kind of billing information.There is no "None" option for me to select. What can I do?

    If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free apps without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • N95(not 8G) KEEPS ASKING TO REMOVE MEMORY CARD

    I bought my N95(not 8G) about 4 months ago(second hand) and about 2 months after I bought it I started getting a message saying ,please remove memory card and press ok.
      It didn't come with a memory card so I fitted one from my old Nokia 6110(1gig) .Anyway I reloaded the N95 software from the nokia website,and this fixed my hassel for about a month,and now the ""remove memory card and press ok"" is back again.
     Also I can access everything on the card with no problems till this happens,then I have to switch the phone off and restart it.
           Any ideas on how to fix this problem would be appreciated
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    found this info on another part of this forum,does it work ???  and as I don't have the original card what can I do ???
    This is a common issue...here how I upgraded my n95 to 8 gig
    insert 8gig sd card into usb reader(thumb drive attachment comes with sandisk 8 gig)
    USE GHOST (disk image software)
    make a disk image of old sd card
    insert 8 gig sd card
    restore image to 8 gig and select the following options
    expand partition to fit drive
    and convert partition to fat32
    This works perfectly and the phone thinks its the old sd card    
    Kudos! Thanks!

    Hi nolimit966
    Although of no help in your present situation, keep this in mind for future reference although you do need a memory card reader. I have always progressed through increasingly larger Sandisk cards (not even formatting) 4,6,8 and now 16GB by just copying contents (enabling Show hidden & System files) of existing memory card to desktop of PC and back to new card without issue.

  • TS1367 Will reinstalling the memory card from my MacBook pro erase my saved data?

    Will reinstalling the memory card from my MacBook pro erase my saved data?
    My MacBook pro that I purchased in mid 2010 has been having some issues lately.
    It's been running slow, which is very irregular since in 2010 I spent a lot of money to get the top of the line in every aspect. It's usually faster than fast and able to run multiple programs and browsers at a time.
    The other day it began to act up. I did the smc reset the pram reset and it still had been running vveerryy ssllooww. :(
    Now I was on it this morning and it was a bit unbalanced as I moved it to another table and it shut off completely. No sleep light, no response to the power button. It's just a dead hunk of junk. :( the only thing that gives me hope is that the battery life indicated is still working for some reason and it responds to the power adaptor when plugged in the light on the plug turns on as if the computer is acknowledging it.
    Please help me. For the first time ever I am about to take apart my precious MacBook pro, but I want to make sure I am aware of what I am doing before I do it. I have read the support guide instructions through a few times so far and I am curious if removing the memory and reinstalling it will erase anything?
    Is there hope?
    Also currently I am unable to get to an apple store/ genius bar any live person at a store until this weekend. I am trying to avoid taking it in for I, like everyone else, need my computer for school and work and don't have the time or gas money to drive to one since I'm not in a metro area. : S
    Please help!
    Thanks for your time.

    No, does not erase any data if you upgarede or reinstall RAM sticks.
    You'd better upgrade RAM to get better performance, I suppose.

  • Can I take a memory card from an iphone 5c and put it in a 4s?

    Can I take the memory card from a iphone 5c and use it in a 4s?

    Since the memory is not removable from the phone, and the phone does not have user serviceable parts, and it voids the warranty and post-warranty support if you open up the iPhone.....................I would say no. That does not take into account a number of differences in the internals of the phone either.

  • Turn off phone before removing memory card N95

    i have removed the memory card many times to plug into the computer. but last time i did it, i plugged it into the computer and it told be it needed formatting. I tried putting it back into the phone and everything had gone!
    This is just advice so you dont have to go through the same problem. Ever since i have turned the phone off first and i also click on eject before removing the card from the computer, everything has been fine so far.

    that's a good advice, since the PC have a feature that says you can safely remove the mem card/usb flash!
    removing w/o this procedure can corrupt directory of mem card.
    Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted!
    If you find it helpfull, it's not hard to click the STAR..

    How can i remove a card from iTunes ?

    If you want to remove a credit/debit card from your account then on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iOS device then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

    how i can remove credit card from my acaunt

    Songs that you downloaded to your iPad before playing them can be removed by swiping across the song title and tapping Deleted.  Music that you played without downloading them can only be removed by turning off iTunes Match in Settings>Music (which will remove all the music from your iPad).  Then you can turn iTunes Match back on again and download/play the music you want again.
