Thanks. Rarely do I find the exact tutorial I'm looking for so quickly. And with exact step by step on how to resolve this problem. Great work!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was on the verge of a breakdown thinking I broke my SD Card, you're a lifesaver !
OMG!!! Thank you so much! I was getting ready to smash everything and move into the woods!
LOL, I'm living there now.
Calm down, Jesus
@@HistoryandReviews id do the same thing if i thought I just lost years worth of footage
Lmfffaaaaaoooooooo ur my mood sometimes
😂bruh!!! Me too! 😂
THIS JUST SAVED MY LIFE THANK YOU
No problem, glad was able to help! 👍
Thank you so much!
me too!
hi, it seems to work for all but not me...when I follow the steps even the blank one doesnt show up in disk utility. what else should i try or what am i doing wrong? thank you
Thank you I was having the exact same problem.
NEEDED THIS MORE THAN YOU KNOW! THANK YOU (as you can tell i'm always late to update my os lolllll)
Hahaha! Yeah, me too usually!! I hope this fixes the problem for you. 👍
I was pulling my hair out over this!!! Thank you for a great & straight to the point fix!
You bet! Thanks Joel!!!
Awesome! Totally worked. I accidentally improperly ejected an insta 360 from the mac. This totally worked for it. About 182GB of video I thought I was gonna have to reformat. Another video I saw of a guy that started to rename the files from this same device. This guy spent hours figuring out how to find the files & recover the names using an excel spread sheet. Good thing I didn't need to do all that, thanks for this video. Didn't spend more then 30 mins finding the right video, this one here.
I held off on updating to Big Sur. Finally did it in April 2021 and this bug/issue has still not been solved. Just troubleshot for 1 hour before I found your video. Thanks for the info!
Have rung 3 Mac repair shops trying to get a solution. No JOY!! Ever since Big Sur update this has been happening. You sir are a life saver . AAAA+++++++ Thanks!!
This might be the only time I had an issue, googled and immediately found a video that solved the problem clearly, quickly and successfully . I thank and subscribe.
This was perfect. Been beating my head against the wall for an hour!! Thanks!!
Hi, I too having same problem, but my card is not showing in disk utility. Do you have any suggestion that can help me please.
I'm so glad I found this. Unfortunately it won't allow me to rename it! Any suggestions PLEASE!
I don't even see it so good for you
check the lock switch on the card.
This happened for me to Deb - did you figure it out?...
Hah! I just realized my Macbook Pro 2015 has a card reader... I was trying to use a USB mount with the card reader in it and it wasn't working. Now using the SD card slot in my computer.. duh.
I totally freaked out this morning thinking I’d gone made or worse my camera had failed. I tried multiple different ways of reading the sd card and couldn’t understand why when I pulled it out of the reader because it wasn’t there I was getting disk not ejected properly messages. I put the disk into my old no Big Sur Mac and the data was all there - phew. Back to the Big Sur Mac I tried one more time and this time selected the Mac itself and there it was clearly showing / totally bizarre! Not showing as a connected drive but showing under the OS disc’s window. Good to know I’m not mad after all / thanks 🙏!!
yeah, it was making me nuts. It reminds me a bit of Windows Vista, LOL
Before I FINALLY start editing my video, let me first say THANK YOU!!!! OMG I think I was literally about to lose my mind trying to figure this out! You are indeed Heaven Sent🙏🏾❤️🙌🏾
You're so welcome!
Ok, I can open the microsd card now, but the jpgs are only visible on the image capture and not in a folder I copied them either in Pictures or in downloads. The computer does not read the files
Thank you!!!!!! This is the first time I have experienced this problem. Your solution is the only one that worked. I appreciate you!
Thanks!!! I spent an hour with apple tech support, even advanced and they told me the sd reader had failed! I was about to take the Mac in!!!
OMG I could have gone mad if it wasn't because I found this video by accident.... THANK YOU man seriously.. !
THIS IS OUTSTANDING! Both in terms of the quality of the content and quality of production.
Every time i update my Imac this happens ,very frustrating but here comes superman to save the day ,it worked for me thanks a bunch,greeting from Germany.
Your tutorial is a life saver. I don't know why this happens to my SD card. Thank you!
I just got the update today and was going to sulk for the rest of my day thinking all my footage is gone, thank you so much for sharing this!!!
Just bought a new MacBook in January 2022 and this is still going on...... thank you for posting this video. your fix worked great!!
I think you saved me much frustration. nobody gave a full explanation. I have liked and subscribed
What if the external SD card doesn't even show up on the disk utility either?
Just got my first Fuji camera for our business, and just like everyone else...YOU SAVED ME!! Your videos are always five-star! Thank you!!
That's so awesome to hear Nathanael!!!! Thank you so much my friend!!!! 🙏
@@pal2techAlways glad to subscribed :)
It was frustrating because of the same symptoms while using the final cut and opening the finder, but it was solved thanks to you. Thank you. Bless you.
You're the goat for this one. My SD slot hasn't been working for years and its just this simple!
You have just saved a life all the way from South Africa Thank you Sir.
This worked. Thank you! I found this video early in the process so it saved a bunch of heartache! :)
you are an absolute life saver ! i've been looking for a resolve for months. you're the only one i've found . Thank you
Thanks I'm currently on a shoot on site and thought this might be a Big Sur problem. You saved me, so I liked your video and watched it to the end. Thanks again!
Awesome to hear!!! Yeah, this issue is driving me nuts as it 'resets' every single time I reformat the SD card in camera. I hope Apple has fix soon for this!
Just upgraded to Mac OS Monterey 12.4 and still the same problem - many thanks for the advice - great work, even years later!
We almost gave up on our sd card. But this really helped us BIG TIME. Thank you so much!!!!
Fun Fact: although the card does not show up in the sidebar of Finder, it does show up in list, icon and columns view. Just click on one of your external drives in the side bar (no double click) and you should be able to see the SD Card labeled "untitled" among all your external drives. Saves you the time for renaming and rebooting the card. Hope this helps!
Huh
I love you!!! Spent hours trying to figure this out. Much appreciated!!
No worries!
Just can not thank you more! I have to leave another comment to address that! You the best Fuji Cam channel. Keep posting, PLS!!
Mine keeps erasing the name and not showing up, but at least I can find it! Any fixes for that? :[
I do not see an external in the disk utility? So I am not sure where the issue is. Can you help?
Amazing! just started RUclips and trying to locate my video files on my SD card but couldnt find them! Your video was quick, simple and easy to follow!
YOU LEGEND!!!! Thank you!!!!!! I was starting to panic and you fixed it
You are the first soul to ever save me from a data scare, thankyou holy moly
I needed this on Sunday. I'm glad I watched this video before because I was on a time crunch.
Awesome John!!!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome! I love this, direct, concise and extremely helpful!! 5 star rating!
Thank you so much!!! 🙏🙏
Using operating system Monterrey having same issue but I’m not seeing anything external under disk utility
Thanks for getting straight to the point. Very helpful
Fantastic - Fast Quick worked perfect. Extremely well done video - even loved the background set. You make RUclips look good. Thank you very much for taking the time to create this.
Hello Sir, really like the video quality, what camera are you using at the time of recording? what is your setup looks like?
I have just bought two new Sandisk 128GB SD cards and I'm having this problem - however, when I follow your steps and go to Disk Utility I'm not getting the option to rename it - only to Run First Aid, Restore, Initialise or eject it. The camera is showing the images so the card is fine but I just cannot transfer them to the Mac. PS Both cards are brand new and formatted on the camera as usual and the card reader sees other older cards.
Same
my sd card isnt showing up in the disk utility either.. any tips?
bless the souls that share important things like this ♥️
You are a very helpful person Chris 😘
Thank you Yousef my friend!!! 🙏 🙏
Finally. I was having this issue with the prior OS. I would have to go to my MacBook Air and upload my photos to a separate drive then use my IMac. Thanks great Tip!
Thanks a ton for this video. Like many others I was stuck. You saved me from going crazy.
Dude, Your are a lifesaver. It worked perfect on my Macbook pro 2019 big sur. Yea! Thanks for making the video!
Your video was a GODSEND right now. Thanks! Also thanks for keeping it short
Thank you so much for this! This just saved me so many hours of pain!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for helping me figure this out! It was super frustrating.
appreciate the video, unfortunately for me the icon is greyed out and if I even try to mount it does not work. Have had this problem for months now and it's awful
Legend mate!
Technolofy is So frustrating sometimes
hey Chris, i updated to Monterey and the card can not be seen even in disk utility.. there is nothing shown in external drive section.. infact "external drive" is written no where.. please guide. God Bless.
You are a genius!! Thank you so much, I was pulling my hair out over this!
Life-saver. I thought my card had died so bought a new one only to find that one was 'dead' too!!!!
That was such a huge tip Chris! See you for fast Friday. 😉
Hey Tammy!!!!! AWESOME to see ya here!!!! I hope all's well!!!!! 👍 👍
SUPER HELPFUL AND A FAST VIDEO! Love it. Thanks pal2tech from Chad in Charleston!
Thank you so much Chad!!! 👍
very very helpful thank you for explaining so quickly and efficiently
I did all of them, Although the name of SD card is appear it is inactive mode and rename also inactive what can I do in this situation?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! YOU HAVE SAVED ME FROM SO MUCH STRESS!!
Saved my life !! Honestly thought I lost my files
WOW this was so helpful. It was exactly what I needed. Thanks a million!
THIS JUST SAVED ME SO MUCH STRESS! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Thank you! I seriously had a minor heart attack this morning. This worked!
What if it doesn’t even show in disk utility?..
New M1 Mac Mini here, exactly this same issue. I swear. Thank you!
No worries! 👍🏻
Same here. Simple, straight to the point solution. Big ups.
Great video, straight to the point and helpful. Thanks!
Holy Moly I needed this so bad. Thank you so much.
Thanks for this...found your worked solution after many hours of frustrating searches for solutions that did not work, which wasted so much of my precious time. Thank you
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! no one else does it like you!
Thank you. Mac developers can stun you with their stupidity and unpracticality sometimes.
I have Monteray 12.5.1 and this just started happening to me, but I could not get this fix to work. Any ideas? Thanks! Love the video, short, concise, and to the point.
But problem is I can't rename it. 😢
try right-clicking it or highlighting the text/title and pressing RETURN.
I just had to comment to say THANK YOU! 🙏 I honestly thought this video wouldn't be for me because it wasn't showing up even on my Disk Utility. Luckily due to COVID I still have my old mac around and was able to do it on there, rename it. Then it showed up fine on my M1 Mac, madness!
It does worry me though for future SD cards after I sell the old mac :0 In that way this bug can mean you can't access it at all if you only have one device
THANK YOU!! I was going around around in circles!
We were pulling out our hair trying to figure out what was going on. Thank you for saving our marriage 😂
Im having this exact problem, only there is no “external” on my disk utility. Not even when I put my card into the computer and restart it. Anyone know why that is?
hi there! i’m having the same issue- did u ever find how to get ut
THANK YOU SO MUCH. This problem has been so frustrating I’m glad I found this easy fix
Thanks for the video! Fast to the point and it actually work 👨🏿🍳🖋
So what do you do when you open disk utility and External isn’t showing up either? Because I’m having that problem right now.
Thank so much. I was having the same issue and it was driving me nuts. I appreciate your help.
Doesn't work for me :( the imac simply wants to eject or format it :( I think the problem is the dashcam it will format the SD card in a format that imac doesn't understand
i have the same SD card and my mac wont let change the name , when I right click the options are " Get Info, Run First Aid, Eject, Imagine from SD Card, Restore, Partition, Erase"
I haven’t made the upgrade yet so thanks for the warning. I know this would drive me nuts.
Hi There. Any advice on what to do if the sim card still doesn't appear on the Disk Utility Screen?
what should I do when I insert the SD card into Mac and it is not there in disc utility.
Wow thank you. This was such a specific problem and it was so quick. Thank you so much.
Unfortunately mine still isn't showing up. It did yesterday an now isn't
Hi , will this technique work for the MacBook Pro as well?
Yes, it should.
