Your issue does not have anything to do with Apple networking. You may have better luck getting a solution if you post it to the MacBook area of the Apple Support Communities.


However, are you attempting to download an OS X application from the Apple App Store, and then, transfer it to a SD card?


Have you used this card before and have been able to copy files to and from it? Please refer to the following Apple Support article for details on the types of SD cards that can be used with your Mac. If you have been able to transfer files, then copy the downloaded application should be a matter of first mounting the SD card so OS X can access it, and then, copying the file from its downloaded location to the card.

Notebooks = all Apple Portable computer support communities

Note: newest 12-inch MacBook is all-new.


If you have an older MacBook (not Pro or Air) there is a separate

section. If you have an vintage G3/G4 Portable iBook/PowerBook

they are also here under Notebooks. Each of the named sections

are generally labeled and accessible from the Welcome to ASC

discussions home page https://discussions.apple.com/welcome .


The MacBook Pro ASC area would befit the computer you're using.

MacBook Pro - Apple Support Community for MacBook Pro users.


Did the article linked in earlier reply help you with the memory card use?


A memory card would appear on the desktop similar to an external hard

disk drive, so items could be 'saved to' it in one of several ways. Or you

can drag & drop items on the icon of the memory card used thus.


The format may make a difference, in some cases, if the

cards are to be used for more than file transfer or storage.


This thread could be moved by a Host to another section, on request.


In any event...

Good luck & happy computing! 🙂
