I am new to using Mac. I bought an SD card adapter and trying to download videos from the card. When insert the adapter and then the card, nothing happens - I thought the Mac would detect it... How do I find the SD Card?

Use Finder (yeah, no joke). Your SD card should appear on the left pane.


If it does not appear there, then it might be that SD card was formatted differently (something that the macOS does not natively read)
