I wanna put some pictures on this SD card i got, its the one with the micro SD card in it from a cell phone.
I put the SD card in its slot, got a little "ding" noise, but the computers not recognizing it, i cant access it.
How do i do this? How do i access it, so i can put pictures on it, to transfer them to another computer?
I had this the other day, google said to uninstall the drivers and reinstall them. Fuck that I thought, so rebooted with the card in the reader and it worked.
If all else fails, turn it off and on again!

Formatting will lose all the data tho....

Said he's putting pics on it but I don't think he can format anyway if there's no access, maybe the off on thing will work.
Turn the computer on then off with the card in you mean? Did that, and still nothing.
Tried the format thing too. "My computer" isn't showing the card, its literally not showing up anywhere.
Im also not getting the "ding" noise anymore when i take it out and put it back in.

you are putting it in the little slot in your computer?
i blew in it, nothing.
its not in the lock position, and im no longer getting the "Ding" sound.
it only gave me the "ding" sound the first time i put it in, but even then, it didn't give me any way to access it.

Which os are you using, xp, vista, win7. That will determine the best way to get to the manager and see if the card is corrupted. It may be that it is just corrupt and windows cant see the drive. The drive manager should have what you need to access the drive but I need the os to tell you the steps that may return your access to the misbehaving sd card.

or get like a USB connecter thingy ma jig, to put the SD in there and i've never had problems with those things? so i think it'd recognize it.
i got the SD with my old cell phone, so iv had it for a while. thats the only reason im using it. i want one of those little usb flash drive things though.
i have the same problem and as mentioned before i just leave it in and restart my pc. Sometimes have to go into "my computer" and look for it and manually open it, but it works all the same
