NucleusG4 MasterBlaster Registered: 04/19/02 Posts: 8401 Loc: Miami, Fl.	Oho! It finally just dawned on me that I have had the exact same problem... getting cards to mount... either FW or USB. I have 3 readers on my desk right now. The latest I just got.. it's a Kingston and everything mounts ASAP. Other readers... I have to keep trying repeatedly before they will mount. This problem predates Snow Leopard for me though. _________________________ http://davidbearphotography.com/ ==== It appears that autocorrect has become my worst enema. ---
