Unmount SD Card Part 2

FCP X 10.2
I have an 8 gig SD card I have mounted that has audio files on it. I imported the audio in FCP X with no problem. Now I want to unmount it so I can mount the SD card with the VIDEO files. I select Import to get the import dialog, I click on the unmount arrow icon to the right of the SD card, FCP X gives me a dialog about how I can't unmount it because it's in use by an application. Yeah, it's in use by FCP X!!! Now unmount it!
Seriously, Apple is close to being the only $1 trillion dollar company in the world and they can't get this right?
Is there a trick to this?
Thanks!

    How do I get passed the card/iTunes card part when I create an account?

    You press on the itunes store, scroll down and look for a category that says "top free apps" placed at the bottom on the right. you press on the button "free" as if you want to download it and a small window opens. you press on the "create apple AD" and you fill in your information. when you get to the card part you press on the None. send me a message if you are still stuck.

  • RAZR M Unmounts SD Card When Connected to Charger

    Seems like since I did the last update (could be coincidence) my Razr M will unmount my SD card when I connect it to my charger. It has done it more than once (every time since I noticed it was happening) and with both my home and car charger. SD card works after a reboot. SD card also works in a card reader on a windows PC. I did loose some files the first time it happened (changed several files, all not in a folder to 0Kb and a date of 1/1/1980) but none since then.

    I also have had the exact same issue with the Razr M. It started after the last update. If my phone is powered on when connecting to my charger it has a triangle icon that apears and says the card has been unexpectedly removed. I power cycle the phone and then it is fine. If I connect to the charger when the phone is powered of first and then power on there is no issue. I assumed It was an issue with the update and would be corrected soon. Note: It happens every time, not just occasionally.

  • Unmounting SD card makes the Finder slow.

    I've noticed that since moving to an Intel machine, unmounting an SD card from an external card reader renders the Finder slow in one particular area - when clicking on any of the icons on the Finder's side bar (both the drives above the horizontal divider, and the favourites below) it will take about ten seconds for the contents of the window to update. A reboot will clear this behaviour, but simply re-starting the Finder will not.
    Does this happen to anybody else? If not, perhaps the problem is with my card reader (a cheap "Flash Gear" unit), although this didn't use to happen on my old PowerMac.

    STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO RECOGNIZE AND IMPORT MTS FILES. (No help from Apple.)
    After 4 frustrating hours and about 40 useless minutes wasted on Apple Support chat, I figured this out.
    Okay, here are the steps to allow Mountain Lion to see your MTS files on a Panasonic camera SD card and import them:
    Click on your camera SD card.
    RIGHT Click on PRIVATE icon. (This used to be a folder, now it is a Quicktime logo.)
    Pull down command for “Show Package Contents”
    Click on AVCHD
    Pull down command for “Show Package Contents”
    Click on BDMV
    Pull down command for “Show Package Contents”
    Open the folder called STREAM
    There are your MTS files. Select them and copy them to a folder on your hard drive.
    Purchase some type of video converter (I paid 30 bucks for Bigasoft Converter and it works.)
    Import the MTS files into the video converter and set the commands (This is several more steps, which you will have to figure out.) This will take quite a while for large, High Def files.
    Save converted files to your hard drive.
    NOW, finally FCP X will let you import and edit your files.
    Thanks Apple for adding 12 steps where it should take one. “Log and Transfer” or IMPORT.  You should fix this.
    It took me about 4 hours of frustration to figure this out. Apple support chat service was no help at all. The girl in chat had no understanding of video files.
    Thank you Apple, for hiding these files behind your Quicktime logo, thanks for adding extra steps and decreasing productivity. I've been using Macintosh computers since 1987. I would not own a PC, but Apple is not what it used to be. Why would you not just let the .MTS files show without hiding them?

  • Finding Video Card Parts Number

    The video card on my imac apparently needs to be replaced (the person at the Genius bar felt it did from my description of the problem).  How can I find out which video card my particular imac G5 (pre intel) needs so that I can order one on line?

    Go to About this Mac under the  n the Menu Bar, then select More Info" and your card should show up under video.

  • Aperture no longer ejecting/unmounting cards

    I just did a complete refresh of my iMac, including a reinstall of OSX and Aperture 3.x.  I've noticed that after importing images from a memory card, and selecting the option to delete images and eject the card, Aperture no longer ejects (unmounts) the card, so I get the warning message when I pull the card out of the card-reader.  Any idea what could have changed to cause that?  Thanks. 

    To repeat my question:
    How long do you wait after trying to eject? With a 32GB card it can take a long time time to erase the content after import.
    Unmounting the card after you let Aperture erase the images from the card may take several minutes for a large card. Just wait ten minutes or so, and eventually Aperture will release the card - usually. How long did you wait?
    A safer fix would be, not to let Aperture erase the images from the card, but to eject directly after import without erasing. This way, nothing needs to be written to the card. That is also quicker, and this way you can check, if the import went o.k., before the card will be erased. It is better for the file system on the card to erase the card by reformatting in the camera.

  • Does an unmounted but still inserted SD card prevent standby mode?

    This apple support document lists a number of things preventing standby mode on SSD portable macs (MBA 2010-, MBP mid 2012 & MBPr)
    To enter standby, the computer must:
    - Have no SD card inserted.
    Does this apply to inserted but unmounted SD cards as well?
    This question arose from the Kickstarter page for The Nifty Minidrive, a microSD card adapter that fits perfectly into the SD slot on portable macs but which according to the aforementioned support document will prevent standby mode on the models that support it.
    If anyone knows or is able to test this that would make 8 602 Kickstarter backers pretty grateful!

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    Sorry to hear that you're having issues with your SD-card.
    I recommend that you first test your SD card in your PC using a test software like http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/H2testw.shtml or similar. I also recommend that you test your phone with another SD card to see if there's something wrong with the phone or SD card.

  • How to install the new Airport + Bluetooth 2.0+EDR card on my dual G5?

    I just received the card (Part# MA252G/A) in the mail but have no instructions on how to install it.
    The Apple website makes it seem like you have to have a BA in computer science to do it, and provides no instrutions. I'd like to see what's involved before attemting the install myself. Mind you, I've built computers from scratch so I'm inclined to believe I can do this myself with a little help.
    Thanks!

    I was told that they wouldn't sell it to a third party. But if you got it, Apple installs it without charge so I'd let them do it and insure that your warranty isn't voided. Get to know the folks at the apple store near you (if you have one). They're really helpful and do things "gratis" on occasion. This is one of the reasons I usually try to "buy locally" for everything. It may be cheaper online but the personal relationship often helps out in the long run and the cost winds up being less. fwiw, my 2¢.

  • What company can retrieve photos from a micro sd card? Another casualty of SD Card blank or has unsupported file system

         I have a Droid X with a sandisk 16gb micro sdhc class 4 installed.  This card has been in use for about a year and wasnt even half full.  I was playing music on thanksgiving and all of a sudden the music stopped.  I thought hmm, It must be doing one of its many reboots.  It wasnt shut off but was on my home screen and the music player had closed.  I went to my music and the songs were still listed.  I tried to play one and got the error message that i  cannot play this file.  I tried again and the songs disappeared and up came "SD Card blank or has unsupported file system" on the top bar.  I tried to view files on the card on my phone and on my computer by using an sd adapter with no luck.  I popped another card into my phone and it worked with no error message and i could mount and unmount the card and view the picture I took when viewing the new card on my computer.  I have a 9 year old daughter who suffers from multiple chronic illnesses and have probably 200 photos on my card of her including an extensive surgery and recovery earlier this year.  If a professional can retrieve my photos, I would like to know more.  Im coming up on my contracts end and this has me ready to zip up a life vest and get on another boat altogether. I have seen hundreds post about this on boards but I hope this can be resolved.  Thanks in advance.

        Hi Matt73,
    I use my phone to store all my precious moments too and I can just imagine how frustrating it must be to have memory card issues like the ones outlined in your post. I see that you have tried different things to retrieve your files from your memory card to no available. It appears that your SD memory card somehow became corrupted and most likely the data in it is now lost (sorry). While not a common issue, there is always a possibility for memory cards and any other memory device to fail. SanDisk Memory cards carry 5 year warranty, to get a replacement please contact SanDisk at 866-726-3475. Their hours of operation are 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. PT Monday to Friday or by email at [email protected] at your convenience.
    I recommend backing up your media (specially pictures) on a regular basis to your computer or to an online service to protect those special memories, I personally have my phone setup to automatically save the pictures I take to my Google  account and even if lost my phone I have a copy of all my pictures online. There are several website that allow you to sync your phone to upload pictures automatically. Please consider a similar option going forward.
    On a personal note, I hope that your little girl's health improves that all those chronic illnesses are kept under control by your physician; I have 2 kids and I Know what is like when they don't feel well. Have a great day!

  • SD Card keeps dismounting itself

    My Sandisk SD card keeps mounting and unmounting in my Z1. I tested the SD in other phones and mounted it on my laptop and it worked fine so I think the problem is my phone.
    I just did factory reset but the problem is still there. Any ideas what else I can do?
    Thanks, Andy

    My z1 just started doing this too, it will all of a sudden say the card has been unmounted. At first I thought it was the card, tried to back everything up on the computer and the card basically died. Bought a brand new class 10 Kingston 16 gig card and seemed to take care of it. But it started doing it again. When I turn the phone off abed back on it reads the card again, but it's only a matter of time before it "unmounts" the card. I've tried everything I know how, putting the card in a computer, my wifes Xperia t, my old LG rumor, and old blackberry, the card works in all of them. What's the deal with the Z1?

  • Differences between NI PCMCIA GPIB cards

    I have a PCMCIA-GPIB+ card , part # 182826B-01
    Q1 - Is this a 16-bit interface?
    Q2 - Are the newer PCMCIA NI cards 32 bit?
    Since some of the expresscard adapters only support 32bit PCMCIA cards, these are important questions.
    Thanks

    For all those wishing to use their 16 bit pcmcia gpib card in Express card slots, I have verified that the following vendor's card works beautifully without any new drivers.
