I have a lightning SD reader that uses an app and works with my iPad and my iPhone no problems. If the other memory card is also not readable by the built-in memory. If it can be read, your memory card is bad and likely needs to be replaced. If you have access to another memory card, insert it into the computer reader to see if it can be read. No good reason, but there is one, 'Because fuck you.' -Steve Jobs. The memory card reader may not be working properly and causing it to not read the memory card. Everything seems to work like before, except the SD Card reader, it does not work at all.
#Apple sd card reader not working mac#
It also sounds like there is a faint constant clicking noise coming from around the sd card reader that I have never noticed before. Ive submitted it to Apple with an explanation of why it should work, but want to see if theres some reason I havent thought of on why they would disable it. Just did a clean installation from Sierra to High Sierra, on a Mac Mini (Late 2012, 2,3GHz i7). If I turn it off and try to reboot with a sd card inserted it boots fine, but I am still unable to write to any sd cards. Check SD card readers hardware information in Device Manager. For SD card reader not working on Windows: 1. Here are the basic steps for fixing SD card reader not working issue. I thought a reboot may fix it, but after trying that without a sd card inserted I can’t get past the grey boot screen. If you are facing the issue that SD card reader wont work on computer even after a restart, check this page for solutions. I figured it was the same issue as before, but the internal switch is in the correct position as well as the one on the sd card. So I was able to flip that with a paper clip and everything started working again for the past couple of weeks.įast forward to today and I had the same issue not being able to write to any sd cards. After some googling I found out there is actually a switch inside the sd card reader, and that had gotten stuck. I know the switch on the sd cards for enabling/disabling writing, and that was not the issue. A few weeks ago every sd card I inserted I could only read from, but not write to. I’ve been having a few issues with the sd card reader on my mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
