Hello StanPianoMan,


Thanks for reaching out to us in Apple Support Communities about your card reader not working. We're happy to help by looking into this more! 


Here's a resource that can help: Import photos using Apple camera adapters - Apple Support


If you don't see the Import tab, follow these steps:
1. Make sure that your digital camera is on and in the correct mode to export images.
2. Disconnect the adapter, wait 30 seconds, then reconnect it.
3. Unplug the digital camera or SD card, wait 30 seconds, then reconnect.
4. Restart your iOS device and turn your camera off and back on.
5. If one is available, test with a different digital camera or SD card. If you can import media with a different digital camera or SD card, there might be an issue with the data on the camera or SD card. Try to import the data to another device or computer, then use your digital camera to format—or reset—the SD card. Reformatting will erase all the images on the SD card. Check the manual for your digital camera for more help.


Hope this helps.


Best Regards.

Greetings StanPianoMan,


If a third-party accessory isn't working as expected, then reach out to the manufacturer for information and assistance with the behavior. Their contact information may be in the owner's manual.


If Apple Pay transactions aren't completing, then let's have you take the following steps to help troubleshoot:


1) Ensure you have an active card in Wallet, as transactions won't be able to complete without a card added: Set up Apple Pay in Wallet on iPhone - Apple Support

2) Ensure iOS is updated to help clear up any software issues: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

3) Restart your iPhone: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


If further assistance is needed, let us know the steps you're taking with your iPhone and the behavior being experienced, including any error messages that are received.


Kind regards.
