If it shows up in disk utility, you can probably delete and recreate the partition. On Oct 9, 2012, at 6:02 PM, Mark Baxter wrote: > The card, in my PacMate, shows up as having an old version of my "Documents," > folder, with some stuff deleted, which came from my Mac's HD, and at one > point t

Sounds like the mac is at least recognizing it, if that didn't work, nothing else would either. If you go in to disk utility, what disks and drives show up in the table? On Oct 9, 2012, at 5:49 PM, Mark Baxter wrote: > When I use the system information utility (I don't have a system profiler) >

Sorry, no windows here. I have a PacMate which has Pocket PC on it, but it chokes when I give it a 4G CF card, and I can't find a format option anywhere there. No other windows exists. :) • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.

Can you do it in Windows? I had to do my in Windows. I just did it as FAT32 and all of a sudden, the cards could be read fine on the Mac. I'm not suggesting this will definitely be the solution, but it is what I experienced to "fix" the issue at the time. Take Care John D. Panarese Dir

If you can afford to delete the info from the card, I'd try reformatting it anyway just as an experiment with one of the cards. It definitely could be the reader itself, but I would try to make sure it's that before you throw away the bath water with the baby. Take Care John D. Panarese

The card, in my PacMate, shows up as having an old version of my "Documents," folder, with some stuff deleted, which came from my Mac's HD, and at one point the USB reader did show up on the desktop with the card in. Right now, I can't even reformat the thing, which is all I really want to do--

Ar the cards formatted in Windows, by chance? If so, what format? I ask because I had a similar problems with SD cards and a reader. Once I reformatted the cards, they suddenly showed up. I had to format them in FAT32 in Windows, but they all worked. Take Care John D. Panarese Director
