Max card reader for MacBook

Anyone know what the max MB cardreader will work with the MB? I have a 16GB SD card that my MB will not read with a cardreader that it supposed to work with a 16GB SD card. If anyone has a card reader that will support a 16 GB SD card, would you reply with the model number?
I wish the MB had a SD slot, but it is what it is.

You probably need a reader that handles sdhc cards as well as plain sd cards.

PCMCIA card reader for Macbook pro

I'm looking for a card reader that is compatible with macbook pro. I receive data cards from clients that are PCMCIA format and looking for a device that can transfer information to the computer most likely through USB. It sounds pretty simple, but most media card readers out there support every possible card except PCMCIA.
So in answering my own question, I have found one device that is "known to work with Mac OS, but unsupported"
http://www.synchrotech.com/products/card-rw29_easyreaderusb2_ata_flash_pcmcia_pccards.html
In the application I'm using, it's not possible to transfer the information to another format and then import. Just curious if anyone else has come across this and has any advice.
Thanks
Andrew

Holy mackerel — a card reader that costs $285 and doesn't even include a USB cable! What will they think of next?
I think your problem would be a good reason to keep an old Powerbook in service. If you don't already have one, you could buy it for less than the reader, use it to read the incoming cards, and share the contents with your MBP over your network.
But this really makes me wonder what your clients are doing, that they bring you data on PCMCIA cards instead of some more convenient format.

PCMCIA Card Reader for MacBook or MacBook Pro to Read Panasonic P2 Cards

Is there a MacBook or MacBook Pro that comes with a PCMCIA slot that will accept the new Panasonic P2 cards that are used to capture the DVCProHD format? If not, is there an alternative to the Panasonic reader that uses an USB connection to send the information to the computer. Currently, the only way I can import the material is via the camera. Thanks for any help.
PPC Dual G5 2GHz Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Spot On!
I am completely sold on the technology and its future. I recently read an article on a future codec that will be available for the camera and card that will use the H.264 scheme in the compression. This will double the amount of content that a card will hold. In other words, from 8 gigs = 8 minutes to 8 gigs = 16 minutes. This will come in the form of a downloadable update for the camera and cards. REALLY COOL!!! You won't have to buy a new camera to take advantage of the improved codec.
As far as color reproduction, HDV cannot come close. If you look at the technical aspects of DVCPro HD vs. HDV, it's a "No Brainer."
Happy Shooting!

Could anyone recommend a reliable card reader for my MacBook Pro please?

Hi,
Looking for a reliable card reader for compact flash and SD cards for my MacBook Pro. Would anyone be able to recommend one please? Most reviews I've read only seem to mention Windows and I'm not sure whether they are Mac compatible.
Many thanks, Karen

Karen,
Hi, what year is you macbook pro? Is it the Early 2008 one with the grey keyboard, or the newer ones with black keys? If you have the grey keyboard macbook pro I use the Sandisk card reader:
For the newer MacBook Pro's a usb card reader works well in addition to the sd card reader built in the MacBook Pro. They are making thunderbolt card readers now for a low price:http://computers.pricegrabber.com/flash-memory-readers-accessories/SmartDisk-THU NDERBOLT-SD-STICK-WRITER-USB/m16520521.html

Best media card reader for iphoto?

What is the best mediat card reader for a Macbook (unibody white) with USB connection.

I don't know if it's best but I bought a Targus High Speed SD/SDHC/MMC reader from WalMart. It's small, great for traveling, and plugs into a USB port. Works very well. About $10 as I recall.

Card reader for new Mac Pro?

what is a good card reader for the new Mac pro?

First this is the MacBook Pro forum, Notebook forum. Do you have a MacBool Pro Notebook or a Mac Pro Desktop?
Anyway any card reader made by one of the major CF/SD/MicroSD memory card manufacturers will work. Connecting to your Mac computer by USB, Firewire (If your Mac puter has a Firewire port) or even Thunderbolt if there are any that connect that way. As for USB connection you won't see much difference between USB 2 or 3. The cards limit the transfer speed more than the connection type.

My lightning card reader for the IPad 4 won't work?

I have the SD card reader for my iPad and it does not work.
The photo app does not launch and even manually launching it does not work! If I am in Settngs>General I can see that the reader is connected fine...
I have now tried formatting the card on two camera's now and I have tried 3 SD cards now, the main one I use is a class 10 16Gb one but the 4 and 8gb ones did not work either, despite me formatting and taking a few images. Camera's I have tried are the Panasonic FZ100 and the Canon EOS 600D SLR but I can not get any image to import.
Does there need to be a certain amount of free space on your device for it to work? I have 64gb but only abut 400mb space free.
I really don't want the hassle of driving to the apple store, it is connected so it does work in that sense, just does not offer to import anything, any ideas?
Thanks

UPDATE:
I have deleted 18GB of TV shows from my iPad and there is 19GB spare, I've restarted the iPad 3 times, closed all running apps etc and still no joy. The card was formatted on the new camera and they use the DCIM and standard 8 character file format. I've also tried an 8GB card and I have also tried it in my wife's brand new iPad mini which has about 6 apps on it and virtually none of the hard drive has been used yet and again that shows up in the about menu as it being connected but no images show up in the photo app.
Both memory cards work fine when I connect them to my MacBook Pro too
I don't know what else to do, I can't find much information about it
Thanks

Why can't I use/build an SD card reader for iPhone?

I have searched and searched for an SD card reader for iPhone. Apple offers the camera connection kit for iPad but for some reason they have made it incompatible with iPhone. This doesn't make a whole lot of since to me unless they are trying to drive users to buy an iPad. So far I have only found one SD card reader that claims to work on iPhone: http://www.zoommediaplus.com/index.html . If they have actually made it work with iPhone and the app is in the App Store then Apple must allow apps to transffer data from SD cards. If so I can make one myself and build the hardware to go with it since the Apple SD card reader doesn't work on iPhone.
I guess my main questions are:
     Does Apple allow SD Card readers for iPhone?
     if not:
          Why don't they?
          Can anyone tell me where it is documented that you can not use SD Cart readers with iPhone?
          How does ZoomMediaPlus get their app in the App Store if it isn't allowed?
     if they do:
          Why aren't their more SD Card readers for iPhone?
          Why doesn't Apple's lightning SD Card read work with iPhone?

Of course they forbid it. You realize that an iPhone 6+ owner cannot use the Apple Lightning SD Card Reader, don't you? We know the support for their own SD Card Reader is built into iOS 8 because it works with iPads. Therefore, Apple intentionally turned the support OFF for iPhones.
and it appears no one else has bothered to attempt to produce one
No, Apple forbids any third parties from producing one. They produce them for iPads but they cannot work on iPhones, because Apple chooses not to permit such functionality (i.e., they forbid it). Third parties produce such adapters for Android, so obviously they would want to do the same for iOS so they could sell more.
You're recommendation for AirStash is uninformed. I've tried it and found it to be a clunky time-consuming workaround if all you want to do is import some photos from an SD card. Using Photos in iOS to import photos is a far more elegant solution - an Apple solution that just works (if you purchased an iPad).
If it bothers you that iPhones do not work with Apple's own Lightning SD Card Reader, then I suggest you leave feedback instead of attacking those who point it out:

SD Card Reader for IPod Touch

Is anybody aware of the availability of an SD Card Reader for an iPod Touch?
Thanks In Advance

There would need to be a downloaded application from Apple's ApStore, which would link to a card reader that fits into the charging/sync port at the bottom of the Touch. So far, nothing like that's been developed that we're aware of, and we're not sure Apple would even allow it because it would be an insecure route to transfer data/programs into the Touch or iPhone. Everything (so far)has to be ported to the device through the ApStore.
An SD card reader would be very useful for dongle-based applications or data readers, especially for PocketPC users.

Card Reader for iPad 2?

Hi there,
I'm a photographer that carries my iPad 2 16gb everywhere with me.
So when I'm out and about I want to be able to transfer and look at my pictures on my iPad.
I want to take some pictures and plug in a card reader to tranfer the photo's on to my iPad 2.
I have a camera that takes a SD card and one that takes a Compact Flash. I can't find anywhere that does a card reader for Ipad that accepts both a SD card and Compact Flash?
Anyone got one?
Thanks
Lauren

There might be some third party CF readers but for your CF camera it may be easier to use the USB attachment. I have a CF reader that works, but it's a vivitar one that's not made anymore.

Hi anyone. Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB. I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera. Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

Hello,
If it is a PowerBook G4 with a PC Card slot, you have two possibilities. You could buy a USB card reader for SD, or a PC Card adapter (such as SanDisk's 6-in-1adapter). Please note that you are or may be limited to plain SD (that is, not SDHC) unless otherwise noted. For a USB reader, make sure that it has Mac support. BTW, is an SD card absolutely necessary for the firmware update; is there not a way of updating via cable? If you post back with the camera model, someone may be able to provide additional information.

Cd reader for macbook pro retina

Until somebody comes up with a specific recommendation, browse http://www.mac-sales.com (OWC) They cater for the Mac community specifically and can tell you what works with a specific model. Not always the rock-bottom cheapest but prices are not more than many others and you know you're getting something that works.

A couple of weeks ago, (after reading a review in TUAW) I bought a wireless hub/ SD card reader called RAVPower. its app comes with a built in viewer, so you can load it up, and see the pics full screen.

Good compact flash card reader for PC slot? card types I and II

Thanks for your time.

Interesting.
I have a Sandisk SD(etc) card reader for my Powerbook's PC slot, and it eats CPU pretty effectively as well when importing into iPhoto - but so does reading from a USB 2 card reader. The PC card reader is slower than my USB reader, but the PC reader is way more convenient!
I've noticed that OS X seems to have more difficulty with PC cards than external readers. For example, last night my PC card quit - or so I thought. When I inserted my camera's card into the reader, it wouldn't read. I saw the PC Card item pop into the menubar of the finder, so I knew the card was functional. I plugged my card + camera in with it's USB cable, and it worked (transferred to iPhoto) just fine. I formatted the card, but while iPhoto recognized it via USB (via camera and external reader), it wouldn't via PC card. I rebooted a while later, and it began to work again - go figure. I've never had this sort of issue with USB gadgets, so It's a little odd.
BTW: I usually use a Kingston 1 GB SD, or one of a few 512 MB SDs from various brands.

HT4528 Is there a sd card reader for iPhone 5

Need to know if there's a sd card reader for iPhone 5

Be very careful when considering bossodg's answer ...
The compatibility list toward the bottom only indicates iPads, not iPhones. Further, there is a question down toward the bottom specifically asking if the product works with the iPhone 4S. The answer given is "no".
