Hi there,
I just installed Magic Lantern for the first time to shoot a job last night. Can see all the benefits straight away, however when I have come to transfer the files onto my Mac, once I have grabbed them and either copied them or dragged them onto a separate drive, the card ejects itself from the reader and I cant transfer the files. I have tested with the SDHC card in the same reader and it is fine and the reader was perfect until I downloaded Magic Lantern.
Any help on getting the files and preventing this happening in the future would be great.
cheers
Replace cardreader and try again.
I would take Kingston FCR-HS3.
Ciao
Walter
Hi Walter,
Cheers for that, but the cardreader works perfectly, I have tried it with other cards. Or do you mean that it is not compatible with Magic Lantern?
Second: There is no such thing.
First: You have identical cards? Manufacturer, size, speed, controller firmware?
Give another cardreader a try if not.
Ciao, Walter
All the cards are the same, apart from 1 has Magic Lantern on it and the others do not. As soon as I put the Magic Lantern card in the reader and go to access any files on it, it shuts down.
Try it on a PC.
RenatoPhoto - I thank you. I tried it on a pc and managed to get the files from it no problem.
So, this brings the new issue, how do I get the ML software to be compatible with my Mac? Any ideas?
Mac has some issues with cards and have been discussed in the forum. I dont have a mac so I dont know any of the details.
Try the search function on the site and on Google.
