Q: Card reader... gone!
I've been having the same 'no-write' problems with my card reader but now it won't work at all!!
I've checked the system profiler which states: 'This computer doesn't contain any Apple Internal Memory Card Readers.' !!!
What is going on??
Any help is most appreciated!
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8)

If you've had some problems before, IMHO it's probable that the card reader is dead.
However, to be sure, disconnect any external USB devices which might be attached to your MBP. Restart. If that doesn't solve it, reset the SMC.

If that doesn't solve it, run the Apple Hardware Test

If AHT finds no error, but the card is still not visible to SP, then it's dead.
