Sd card slot not reading card

I have a Pavilion dv5 1235dx running with Windows Vista. My sd car slot doesn't read the memory card anymore and if I explore to find the file myself it is not there.  But I know that the card is fine because other computers read it.  It worked in the past but has stopped working recently.  What should I do?

, Hello and thanks for posting on the HP support forums.  Here is a lint that should help you with the sd card reader issue. HP Notebook PCs - Using and Troubleshooting Memory Card Readers (Windows 7 and Vista) Please let me know how this goes.  Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

  • Drive slot not reading anything

    No matter what kind of disc I enter, the computer does not recognize it. CD, DVD or Data. It will not even read the Apple OSX Disc 1 for disc startup...any suggestions

    I assumed you had an Intel iMac since you posted in this forum; one thing you could try to determine if the drive is OK or not is to see if will appear in the system profiler.
    Go to About This Mac under the blue Apple Menu, and then click on More Info in the window that appears. Click on ATA under hardware, and see if your drive is listed there.
    Of course, if it's listed doesn't necessarily mean it's working properly, but if it's not listed at all it may have a malfunction. Apparently you are able to eject discs, though, since you say you've tried several;
    One other thing to check is Finder Preferences; make sure the CDs, DVDs and iPods box underneath Show These Items On The Desktop is checked. The disk may be mounted and not visible if the box isn't checked.

    MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) will not read an SD card in the SDXC card reader. Does anyone know whats going on?

    Hi David.  I don't have as modern a Macbook Pro as you, mine is a 2012 model, but perhaps I can help.  I often find that my SD card will not load when I first insert it.  I have to remove it and then put it into the slot again firmly.
    You also haven't posted any information about the SD card.  What size is it, do you know how it is formatted, has it worked in that same mac previously, where did it come from, does it currently work in another device (such as your camera)?  This sort of information will help to narrow down the problem.
    If you post some more information I'm sure people will try to help you.  In the meantime, if you look at your post again you should see "More Like This" at the bottom of the page and you may find an answer in some of those related posts.
    Hope that helps.

  • Sat Pro M30: SD card not reading

    not reading my notebook(sat pro m30) sd card,

    Hello
    Try please on this way:
    - remove the entry from device manager
    - after reboot put first the SD card in the slot and please before you install the driver read the readme file. You can find it on your tools CD or if you download SD memory card driver from Toshiba download page
    There is described the right installations procedure.
    Bye

  • I have a MacBook Pro and have an older SD card reader but it will not read new cards. Is there a new reader that I need to install. I have MAC OS X 10.6.8

    Does anyone know why my computer will not read newer SD cards. I have a reader that read early cards fine but not the new ones.

    How many GB is your new card?
    Older machines have SD card slot, new machines have SDX card slot.

  • SD card slot not workin

    I have an HP Touchsmart 15-r053cl running windows 8.1. Im having an issue with the built in SD Card reader. It was working fine when i got the laptop, but it stopped working some time ago and I have not been able to get it fixed. I've tried alost everything. I've uninstalled and reintalled the driver several times. Even tried different kinds of drivers and still no luck.  the computer does not recognize when an sd card is inserted at all. it makes no sound. no messages pop up. Is as if i had not inserted anything. I've also tried different SD cards and still nothing. no response from the notebook whatsoever.

    Hi  ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. It is a great site for information and questions. I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j053cl Notebook and your SD card slot not working correctly. Here is a link to help troubleshoot the Memory Card reader. The section you need to look at is SDHC card locks up or the SDHC card cannot be read.  You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook. When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices as they can cause issues.I would also check into the device manager to see if there is anything in there that shows a complication. What is the manufacturer of the SD card as your does only 32GB for Secure Digital cards? Hope this helps you out. Thanks.

    LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

    Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

  • Not reading camera card

    I put my camera card in my macbook and it isn't even showing up on the desktop.  My friend with me has the same computer and hers opened it and registered it right away.

    Remove it and reinsert it is what I do and it will usually pop up. If not go into disk utility and see if anything pops up and whether you can mount it or not.

  • BB Curve 9220 not reading the memory card

    Hello,
    I have a Blackberry Curve 9220
    v7.1.0.746 , Platform 9.50.0.80
    1 week ago I was using this phone and that time i didnt have a memory card in this device. I opened wechat and it showed either to insert memory card or to disable usb mass storage in this device. I didnt have a memory card that time, so, i tried todisable the usb mass storage and I did that.
    Today, I inserted a memory card in this device, it shows that "Media Card is presently not inserted in this device"
    When I searched the internet I got some solutions. They showed that to enable mass storage mode and check media card support on.
    I turned Media Support set to ON.
    I have made sure that the media card is formatted and inserted properly.
    BUT
    When i pressed the option (BB Logo key) button , it didnt show the option to enable  usb mass storage. It just showed these options : "Switch app" ,"Select Text" , "Save" , "Help" , "Close".
    There is no option to enable usb mass storage and it is not reading the memory card
    Please tell me what to do !
    Thankyou

    Hi Manabb04
    Enable or disable USB mass storage mode
    If you connect your BlackBerry smartphone to your computer using a USB cable but does not appear as a drive on your computer, you may need to activate the USB mass storage.
    On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon. 
    Click Device> Storage.
    Press  > Enable USB mass storage.
    If necessary, type the password for the smartphone.
    Your smartphone appears as a drive on your computer.
    To disable USB mass storage mode, press  > Disconnect.

    i have problem with my iphone, it;s never lock and not read sim card, before reinstaling 6.01, thnx juliany

    If you are both on the T-mobile network, the sim card should work.  If you did a Erase All Content and Settings, then she should be at the point of activation as a new device...talk to T-mobile and be sure the sim she is using is a valid sim card.

  • Card reader not reading

    Buy an external card reader that connect by USB. The one inside your Mac has failed and the only way to fix it is to replace the logic board.
