I have a Sony XQD card reader which, since the upgrade to Monterey, is no longer recognized by Finder.
Strangely enough, if I leave the card in the camera and connect the camera to iMac then Photos automatically recognizes it.
Tried it on my new Macbook Pro M1 Max: the same result.
I was afraid it was the card reader but that thing works fine on a windows device.
Any suggestions
Yeah I guess thats the only option
But what is strange is that earlier where I connected the camera directly to my mac, it showed up in finbder. Now it doesn’t anymore but when i then open Photos, the device is recognized
Yes tried it thanks.
brought the reader back to Sony and it appeared to be a faulty reader. Luckily enough I still had 3 days warranty left on it so they will sent it to Service (which will take forever for them to realize replacement is their only option haha).
until then I’ll simply only use the SD card in my camera and use the onboard reader of the MacBook
Hi,
I'm not sure about Sony XQD card reader, though my old cheap Owltech Card reader/writer works fine on Monterey as well as Beta released Ventura.
You'd better get new card reader.
So, did you try the same method with the card reader and open photos, then connect the card reader?
