Calibre not reading SD Card off PRS-505 (OSX)

Mairu · 02-10-2009, 10:49 PM

Hi! I just recently purchased a Sony PRS-505 and downloaded Calibre to use for managing my ebook library. I purchased an 8gig micro sdhc card and have it in the sony reader's sd-card port with a micro sd card adapter. OSX has no trouble reading the SD card that's plugged in when the reader is plugged in, but when I try to send books to the sd card using calibre it gives me an error message stating that there are no storage cards connected. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to just drag & drop the lrf files onto the sd card in Finder?

Post the output of running

Code:

calibre-debug -d

in a terminal

Using that showed me that the sd card was set to read only, and I had apparently accidently locked the sd card when I received it. I unlocked it and now calibre is reading and sending to it fine. Thanks for your help!
