Hey Folk
After Updating to the new version of apples OS (OSX Mavericks) i am unable to use my SD-Card-Drive.
I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) with a build-in Card Reader. It cannot read any cards since the update.
I used SD, SDHC, Micro-SD with adapter and so on . Various Versions from different Manufactors, but nothing works out?
Any Ideas?

*** this indeed worked, as soon as I switched my card to 'locked' it showed up..

The SD card will have a lock slider (similar to good old floppies). If it's on unlock/lock, the card won't read.
If you put the slider in between, about a third of the way from unlocked to locked (NB! Not in the middle), the card reader will recognize the card.
It a silly fix, but it has worked for me several times.

Now trying to set it half-way to hope to make it writable 😝
EDIT: Now that I've done this, I slightly moved it back, tried it a few times and now just even with the normal 'open' position (like it was originally) it also works fine again, that's weird, but hey !
THIS WORKED. THANK YOU!
That works!!! 😀 Thanks
GREAT, that was it. No genious bar guy could figure this out. They only wanted to replace the mother board. You saved my last 4 weeks! Thanks!
I did everything suggested here but nothing worked. It turned out that the slot might be somewhat dirty.
It recognised the card after I blowed directly into the slot a few times. What a surprise!
Ohh my goodness.. your trick did help!! Thanks So much. I've been searching the workaround for almost 2 months and you save my day 🙂
