Well, I'm not sure if this qualifies as dire, but my 505 will no longer read either SD or DUO cards. I've tried both. I used that whole igorsk flash thing and it did put a clock and stuff in there, but since I didn't back up my old xml file, I have no idea what to do now. I need to either get back to the original software that was on there or fix this so it will read my external media I insert into it. I've tried reflashing but but it's not doing it. Before it only did it after numerous like putting the thing in and taking it out. I'm using a Mac so the official update stuff is all but useless--still can't figure why they refuse to release the software for us mac heads.

Well, any suggestions?

Run the original firmware updater again, then reapply the hacks.
