Small problem I hope someone can help me with. I have plugged a Zeikos card reader into the USB port of my new macbook pro but it is not being recognised. There is a memory card in it and the red light is on and solid which I thought meant it was working...but no icon shows up on my desktop.
I've checked the packaging and it is compatible with macs.
Any help would be great!

What kind of memory card are you trying to read? Some types need an adapter in order to be read through the Zeikos. And, are you able to see the card from Disk Utility?

I have had problems in the past with certain USB card readers and adapters. Usually it boils down to an incompatibility either with the reader or the adapter.

Regards.
