Camera kit not working

Hi all,
I just experienced a problem with my iPad 2.
I plugged the Camera Kit (SD plug) and inserted a SD Card inside in order to import pictures.
Nothing happened...
I tried to power off/on the iPad, and still no reaction.
I've tried several SD Cards without reaction.
I have even tried to use the USB Plug, and put some USB Memory Flash without any effect (but I never did this before).
There is absolutely no reaction whatever card I plug.
Still, if I plug the iPad to my laptop, it's ok (iTunes / Disk mode and so on).
But, the weird thing is that it worked in the past with the same SD Card : I tried to import pictures and had a "disk full error".
Of course, I deleted some files and now there is enough disk space to import a lot of pictures...
My battery shows 36%.
Do you have any clue ? I really wouldn't want to restore all settings.
Is there a minimal battery state to import pictures from a SD Card ?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance !

Just a quick post to add that I fixed the issue.
I've powered up the iPad (up to 50%).
I've put back the adapter+SD Card and firmly inserted the adapter even moving it a little bit to ensure contact.
And the device worked back, and I could import the pictures from the card, as in the past.
I'm not sure that the contact was the issue, I'd rather think that the iPad needs a minimal power to load pictures from the card.
Wait & see, if I can find a "scientific" rule, I'll post it there.
Thanks for those who read this topic anyway.

Sd photo import camera kit not working with iOS 8

I bought an Apple brand sd card photo import camera kit for the iPhone 5 (lightning cable) a couple years ago. It no longer works with iOS 8.x. I now have an iPhone 6 Plus and it still does not work. I get the error "This accessory is not supported by this iPhone." Since it is Apple brand it should work.
I have googled and searched the forums and found no leads on this. I was hoping with the latest 8.3 release it would be addressed. Does anyone know how to get this to work or is it an apple bug?

One article that might be helpful is here (suggesting you need HUB if it's drawing too much power):

@ rotorcraft:
It has to have a DCIM folder, but the directory after the DCIM folder, and the files themselves, have to follow DCF rules (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designrule_for_Camera_Filesystem)..if it's the structure created by the camera it should be fine but if you change the folder to something other than DSC_xxxx and you change the image filename to something other than ABCD1234.whatever then it won't show up.
You can double check if the kit is being recognized at all in Settings -> About, then scroll to the bottom, it should say like Apple Card reader or something I forget. If it isn't, I would just reboot

Camera kit not working? I may have an explanation

So I bought the camera kit today. Plug the SD card reader and nothing happen. Hmm! Try the camera with it's cable, not working.
Hmmm... Try the same with my wife's Ipad and it works first shot!...Oh no! Please make so that it's not a defective Ipad.
But my Ipad have those black rubber protector. The cut out where the connector port is is just big enough to give access but the white plastic shape of the camera kit is bigger. So it sit on the rubber which is about 3mm thick. And that's enough to prevent the accessories to do proper contacts.
I proved my theory by flipping out the rubber and inserted the SD card reader and it worked.
Looks like I'm going to do some fine surgery on around the cutout if the protector.
If you do have some kind of casing and problems making the camera kit work, you may have the same problem I had.
Hope it helps

Possible, those rubber case are molded and not exactly of the same perfect dimensions... It's called fabrication tolerances. So lucky you then. Others might have the same imperfections mine have and will have an indication of one thing to look at.

Camera kit not working ios7

I have an ipad 2 and have just updated to ios7 , my camera kit does not seem to work at all, it does not pop up with the option to import pictures nor does it appear in the photos app.

Nope, still getting not a certified apple device. It worked fine until ios7 update. Anyway to remove last update? Would rather have accessories than latest update. Crazy to spend $50 on accessories for a $500 ipad that I know cannot use. Apple is forcing hand had to spend another $30 on a peplacement cord that was authentic apple product racking accessories up to $80 now for an ipad less than a year old. Any way to get these to work?

Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5?

Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5? What can I do to make it work again?

It should. It will only respond if there's something on the card for it to respond to, so do you have pics on the card?
And if it's messing up; try giving the iPad a restart. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see hte red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. That can clear up any glitches on the device itself.

Camera Connection Kit not Working

I got my Camera Connection Kit yesterday and i wasnt able to get it to work with my SD Card, it says "USB Device not Supported" when i plug the Card in
The USB Connector doese nothing when i plug in my Nikon D700 or D300. When i Plug in my CF Card reader there is no light nor a Sign of Activity
I restarted the Ipad several Times but no change
Any Suggestions ?

Are you sure it's seating all the way into the slot? Sometimes the case or cover interferes with it.
Also, some cameras do not work with the CCK. It has to do with how the camera format's the memory card.

My camera does not work on my ipod touch 4th gen. it just goes to a black screen i have done everything from resetting and rebooting... help :(

I fell down the stairs the other day and busted my other ipod to the gamewerks near my house. the guy said he couldnt fix that ipod so he gave me a new one.. a better one a 32GB, the broken one was 8GB. but he told me the only bad thing is that the camera does not work and he doesnt know why... he just couldnt get it to workkk... any ideas on whats wrong?

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

Take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar for testing, and if it is defective and under warranty they will replace. Since you say iPhone 4, was this a used or refurbished iPhone?

I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, what should i do?

I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

Hello Manishshakya,
I see that you are having problems with the webcam on your computer. The unit you have is a HP commercial unit.
I would suggest posting your problem in the HP Commercial Forum as well. There are more users with the computer you have on this board and it is specific to your computer.
