Digital Camera said I ejected but I didn’t

Hello!


So I got this digital camera off of TikTok shop since it was cheapest there. The camera I got was a PORTWORLD 4K 64MP Digital Vlogging Camera and it comes with a TF memory card. I got a disc adapter for my Macbook Pro so I can upload videos for my vlogging channel. I barely used it today and I plugged it all in. I called on the disc drive but it kept open for 5 seconds before it closed saying it wasn’t ejected properly without disconnecting. The issue is I didn’t disconnect it. The UDISK closed on me and then popped up with that notification. What should I do?


The message it said: Disk not ejected properly. Eject “UDISK” before disconnecting or turning it off.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.7

I didn’t buy an inexpensive phone? I got a digital camera. I got it off TikTok shop during the Valentine’s day sale. It costed $50 at the time of the sale. And I’m talking about how it says I ejected the disk card from my computer when I didn’t.

Wrong wording on my part.


A. Single-Out this Computer:

So, what happens when you plug this in to another computer? Do you get this error? If not, then it may be a hardware issue with the Mac.


B. Try Safe Mode:

While in Safe Mode, try using this browser. In Safe Mode, login items do not run, and corrupt system files(i.e. caches) are intentionally reset as a way to fix issues.

  1. Boot: in to Safe Mode: [Hold Down: shift key upon boot].
  2. Log in: as same user
  3. Try: this once more
  4. Restart the Mac Normally
  5. Try: this once more


C. Single-Out this User:

For troubleshooting purposes, create an Administrator user, seeing if you do not get this occur while in it. If so, then it is an issue with the configuration of the current user. If not, then it is an issue with the entire Mac or the card.


D. Reset the SMC and your NVRAM:

(Applies to Intel-Based Macs Only): Sometimes when changes are made to the system(i.e. updates), system configurations (i.e. for Ports) become manipulated, technically. So, reset the SMC and NVRAM.

Thank you for the screenshot.



Message from a New iPhone:

First off, I wouldn't say an inexpensive phone is a good idea to purchase --if It seems like too good of a deal, then it likely is. So, you can return it, informing the seller it is a defective item. This is the site the seller should have used prior to selling it to you: What to do Before you Sell, Give Away, or Trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Ridding of this Message:

If returning this is not an option, then try resetting this to Factory Settings. You'd perform as instated in the same link, including logging out of your Apple Account.
