I am having issues with mounting a CF card in my MPC1000 to my Mac desktop.
I bought a new CF Card for my MPC1000 with the latest JJOS2xl OS (3.79)
The CF card is a SanDisk Extreme Pro 32gb.
I formatted the CF card in the MPC1000.
I can read and write to the card within the MPC1000 itself, by which I mean that I can create folders, save a program with samples, and save sequences, all to the card.
Then, I can turn the MPC off, turn it back on and load what I had saved before, program with samples and sequences.
So, I know I can read and write to this new CF card, same as my old CF card that is only 512mb.
BUT, I cannot get the new card to mount on my Mac desktop EVEN THOUGH the old CF card will. It just hangs on the MPC1000 screen where it says “Accessing…”
Here is something I noticed:
So, on my old CF card (which mounts on Mac) I can see from the Mac system report that one of the things it states is that the card is “Writable: Yes” and it also notes a “Mount Point”.
With my new card, the system report can "see" the 32gb CF card, but it does not even have the “Writable” category and no “Mount Point” info.
So, any idea what is going on?
The new Card is writable when it is in the MPC1000 because I was able to save and load from it.
So why doesn’t the Mac want to mount it? OR am I being impatient since the 32gb card is so much bigger than the 512mb card that it takes longer to find the “Mount Point”?
Does it seem odd that the Mac System Report can “see” the 32gb card and give me the info above, but the card itself doesn’t mount on the desktop?
I have read through various threads here on this type of issue. I don't think it is bent pins, or the USB cable, etc. Because the older smaller CF card works fine in terms of mounting on the Mac, with the same pins, cable, etc.
Thanks for reading, and I would appreciate any thoughts on this issue.
