  P2 Cards not showing up on desktop

  Posted by Bryan Less on January 23, 2013 at 3:55 pm

  Hello all

  I use a PCD20 P2 card reader. My P2 cards used to show up on my desktop as P2 icons with the PCD20 slot number. Now they just appear as mounted drives. Which means P2 formatter will not see them. Any ideas what is causing this? Could I have installed something that caused this to go away? I reinstalled P2 drivers and P2 formatter with no resolution. Thanks for your kind words in advance.

  Use fw800 instead of USB?

  I don’t use anything but FireWire for video. Thanks for asking. I’m stumped too.

  A good mix. 10.6, 10.7 and 10.8 and it’s an issue on all machines.

  I know this is a silly question, but you do have the proper drives installed, correct?

  There are different drivers for every OS. Click the proper tab at the top here:

  Yes I did install appropriate drivers, at least I think so. Thanks for pointing that out. You know I wonder if something was installed that is interfering with this? I don’t know why why this could be an issue though.
