SD Card Not Showing Up in This PC

When I insert the SD Card it does not show up in "This PC" anymore. The Local Disk (C ) appears, and also external media via USB wehen plugged in, but no longer the SD card.
I wonder how to fix this...

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

SD Card not showing after Mountain Lion Update

This matter has been discussed for some time now in
Apple Support Communities > Desktop Computers > iMac (Intel) > Discussions
SD Card not showing after Mountain lion Update
Since the update to Mountain Lion, the SD slot does not show up in Finder.
Someone gave a fix using the killall in Terminal, and that worked only once. I have not been able to get that fix to work again.
The only saving grace for me is that my SD Card us is always from my Nikon camera, and Nikon ViewNX 2 software is able to see and read from the card.
Killall may have worked partially in that I no longer get the error message telling me that I have removed the SD card improperly, and need to dismount it first.
However, Finder still cannot see it.

Those are basics ... Been there, done that, first.
Then you should hava posted all the troubleshooting you already accomplished.
Does the card show up in System Information? Or is that another one of the "basics" you've already looked into?
Does it show up in Disk Utility? If so, have you tried formatting it there to determine if it is a formatting problem?

Blackmagic Decklink card not showing up in Playback settings

Just upgraded to Premiere Pro CC - my Blackmagic Decklink card is not showing up in the Playback settings box.

Hi Peter - thanks for responding - yes I did install the latest drivers - but finally found a thread that solved the issue. Turns out Blackmagic installs the drivers in its own Adobe folder - but Adobe only wants to see them in its own special folder (Application Support>Common>Adobe). Once I moved everything from the one folder to the other, then Premiere could see the card just fine. They should be definitely look at a better way of dealing with this - so it doesn't become an emergency science project for people like me.
Anyway, case closed - for now. Thanks.

Airport card not showing up after new Security Update

Just did the new Security Update and lost all internet with my Tibook. Getting message that no Airport card is installed. Not showing up in the System Profiler. Update has apparently killed my Airport card. Any solutions?

Mac Mini Early 2006 Mini PCIe SATA Card Not Showing Up

I'm trying to add a couple of SATA ports to an early 2006 mac mini by swapping out the mini PCIe AirPort for a SATA card. This is the card I'm using http://www.startech.com/Cards-Adapters/HDD-Controllers/SATA-Cards/2-Port-Mini-PC I-Express-Internal-SATA-II-Controller-Card~MPEXSATA22I, problem is it doesn't seem to show up when installed in the mac. The card works perfectly when installed in a different machine.
The AirPort card shows up fine when swapped back, so the connector's okay. But with the SATA card installed, System Profiler says the computer doesn't contain any PCI cards. I've tried resetting the NVRAM with no success. I don't even see an entry for the device it in the ioreg output, so I'm thinking there might be a power issue. Does the mac mini supply both 3.3V and 5V to the mini PCIe connector? Is there anything special I need to do to get this card to show up?
Thanks.

There a long thread about this on the 123MacMini forum. At page three, they mention drivers (you need drivers, right?) and there is a link...
http://www.123macmini.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=22943&postdays=0&postorder=asc& highlight=pcie+sata&start=30
Actually, that thread might refer to a different, but similar, card.
Don't know if it finally worked. Be very interested to hear. (Not sure why Apple is/has always shunned eSATA?)

TREO 650 SD Card Not Showing On Desktop

Mac OSx 10.6.1
MIssing Sync 6.05b installed but showing as 6.0.4
Treo 650
I have an 8 MG Panasonic SD Card installed in the slot. Syncing iPhoto to the Treo works fine.
It was my impression that the handheld SD card should show on the Desktop when the handlehld is connected by the USB cable. It is not. Disk Utility is unable to find the hanheld card either however if the card is inserted into my camera it is recognised.
Am i wrong to assume that the card should appear on the Desktop? Am I missing something?
Post relates to: Zire 21
This question was solved.

Unfortunately the 650 cannot show the SD card on the desktop of your computer. This is also the same for Windows PC's. To move pictures to the SD card you can use quick install and drag and drop into the storage card part of the application. Then close it and on the next hotsync it will sync over to the device but place it in your SD card.

Airport card not showing up - more data

Powerbook G4 FW800, now running 10.3.9 Update from post below.
Installed the Airport Extreme card, but it doesn't show up in the system profiler. I've done various re-installs of the card, PRAM and open firmware resets, and updated the OS to 10.3.9 (from 10.3.2). But I notice something strange:
On my iMac G5 (10.4) that has no Airport card installed, the system profiler doesn't see the card that isn't there (normal), but when I open Internet Connect, in the top "tray" along with Modem, Bluetooth, and Ethernet I see an "Airport" icon. Select it, and I get an Airport setup but is greyed out - OK. In the System Preferences > Network, the status shows Airport Not Turned On. Again, no airport card installed. Internet Connect version 1.4
But on the PB, there is NO Airport icon in the Internet Connect (Version 1.3) tray, and in System Preferences > Network, Airport doesn't show in the status. And Internet Connect V1.4 won't run on on 10.3.9. Tried that.
Is this an OS 10.3 to 10.4 difference? In 10.4 if the card were installed, I would have the opportunity to turn it on. In 10.3 on the PB, I don't even have the opportunity to turn it on.
Thoughts? I'm wondering if it isn't a hardware issue, but a software issue. I could re-install the original OS S/W, and then upgrade from there to 10.3.9

Saabguy, Welcome to the discussion area!
Don't start a new thread. This makes troubleshooting even more difficult because people that read this thread have no idea what was suggested in your other thread. Therefore you will get the same suggestions here that you got in "Airport Card not installed - sigh".
The difference you are seeing has nothing to do with your problem.

Sd card not showing as storage device

Hello, I have a Photosmart 6520 All in one and, ever since I've gone wireless, when I insert an sd card into the front slot it, NOW, does not show up as a storage device on my MAC. I would love to grab some picture I've taken off the sd card to fix and mail. Open to suggestions. Or do I go back to wired and save myself the hassle? Seems like if it worked one way it should work the other, but...? Thanks

Hi , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand that you're unable to see your SD Card on your MAC, while in your HP Photosmart 6520 e-All-in-One Printer. I will certainly do my best to help you.. In order to use this feature you need to be connected to your computer with the USB cable. I don't believe you can use this feature wirelessly. You may want to consider investing in a card reader for your Mac, if you wish to keep your printer connected wirelessly. How large is the SD Card you're using? I believe this printer supports up to a 2GB card, anything larger and you may run into issues. I hope this answers your question. Have a great day!

SD card not showing right memory space

I have inserted a 128gb memory card inmy z3 and saved loads of apps to it but its still showing 125gb of memory available on the memory card. It was also showing this amount of space before I saved anything on the memory card. Anyone know why its not showing the correct amount of available space?

Apps can be too small to make you notice a difference in card capacity, even large apps leave their large files on internal memory. I think you should try recording a long video or tarnsferring a movie from your PC to SD card and see how storage looks like.

HD video from SD Card not showing up in Iphoto or Imovie

When I put my SD card in, Iphoto comes up and has my pictures but not my HD video. I tried to import in Imovie and then went under my SD card file and the video still is not showing. The video is 100% on the SD card. They showed up when I imported my pictures and videos using windows on my mini toshiba. I want to edit the video on Imovie though.. Why wont they show?

As AussieDJ suggested - have your copied the files from the SD card to your hard drive? You should be able to open them in QuickTime or, at least, VLC DVD Player. I get from your message that you just want to watch the movies and not edit them?
First, copy the movies onto your hard drive. Open QuickTime player and try to watch them there. If that fails, try downloading VLC DVD Player, open it and then try to view your movies.
Good luck,

SD or CF cards not showing up in Finder

Hello all. I edit with FCP and always have created images of my SD and CF cards. When ready to edit I mount and import. I have noticed lately that I do not see the image of the card once mounted in finder. I see it in my desktop and disk utility but not in finder. I can mount anything else like a program and shows up find in finder. I went ahead and used my reader and put in an SD card. Same thing. I used another reader, same thing as well. Any suggestions on how I can get the card to show up in finder? Thanks

On the General Tab I do have external disks checked and in Sidebar, the card does not show up. I did check the overall computername and within I see the card, but does not show up on sidebar.

MacBook Pro with Draft n card - not showing n

I just got a Dell 1500 draft n card for my CoreDuo MacBook Pro. I installed it and the n enabler utility, but it is still not showing up as n compatible in Network Utility.
I have installed the AirPort Base Station Updater, repaired permissions, rebooted, installed the n enabler again, etc. But still no joy.
Any ideas?
Phil

Are you sure the enabler ran? Early reports said that the enabler would not run on a Macbook CoreDuo. However it worked fine for me for the when I installed the "n" card for the Macpro in my Macbook CoreDuo.
Check out the following
http://xlr8yourmac.com/systems/macbookprowireless_N_upgrade/macbookpro_N_cardinstall.html#storytop
Others say you need to use Pacifist to extract and run the enabler on a CoreDuo (again check the article). Also I have read somewhere that you can edit the installer to change a parameter value so that it will run on a core duo (I tried to find it but couldn't).
Don't give up - I have a great increase in range and speed. I was able to replace an old Airport extreme and 2 airport expreeses with a single new airport extreme.
Good luck.

When using the google translate js api to dynamically translate a webpage the chosen option in a select element does not show up. This happens to me only in FF (using v4)

I am asking you this because I did not find this problem in any of the other browsers I have (chrome, opera, ie, safari).
I uploaded a simple html file to show this problem here: http://rvyu.com/mKLG
Notice that if you don’t change the language you have no problem changing the value in the select element (the original one with 3 options, not the one generated by google translate) but if you do when you switch values the selected one does not show up.

Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
RESPONSES:
1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC. I simply used the same iTunes login and account. I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store. If I click "Download Previous Purchases" text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered. I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam. Good response for you. Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome. I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
QUESTIONS:
3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download? Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU...
I work in the computer support section for the Military. The only problem is we use Windows , lol. Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover. I go back next month though I hope. But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein. Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself.

SD card not showing

Hi;
I have been successfully downloading pix from my camera by inserting the SD card into a slot in my monitor (Dell). Today, the SD card does not show up as a drive. I tried other SD cards to no avail. I then inserted the SD card back into the camera and connected with the supplied USB cable. Still nix.
What has happened?
Chris

Hi BD;
Found the little sucker (smaller than I thought and not where any of the sample layouts shown but marked PMU reset) and pressed it — I think I did, because got no tactile feedback that I did anything.
Nada.
I tried mounting it with Disk Utilities but the mount button is grayed out.
I tried using a different camera that worked previously. Nope.
Checked and swithed the USB cable from my monitor. Nope.
To recap, two differnt cameras, one card reader, three different SD cards: all fail to mount.
Hmmm . . .
Chris

SD Card not showing up in Final Cut Pro on the MacBook Air

I have been using Final Cut Pro X on a Macbook Air (1.7ghz Intel i5, 256gb ssd, 4gb RAM) and when I insert an SD Card, it shows up but immediately disappears. It continues to be displayed on my friends MacBook Pro, but does not on my Air.

Apologies! All sorted. My mac was just taking so long to render the audio lol
Still having issues with syncing audio (zoom h4n) video clips (multicam clip or sync clips). Normally works like a dream even on difficult material, but for some reason now randomly sync's clips way off the mark.
Cheers
