What's up. When I put an SD card into my MPC Live, it won't read it. I formatted it right, and it read it for a little while however it won't now. A friend had mentioned that if a hard drive is installed (one from a laptop) the Live will overlook the SD Card. I'm not sure if this is the case, but I can't get it to appear.

Also, If I do get the Live to acknowledge the fact that an SD Card is inserted, will that card need to be re-formatted? Will the beats that I saved on the card for the short amount of time it actually worked be gone? I tried searching older threads but when I enter the keywords in the search field, I get so many results it's impossible to go through them all. Lol.

:hmmm:

Thanks

So perhaps the card itself is the problem?

Any idea of what might have caused the card to go south?

Try a different card. Format it outside of the MPC

I'm thinking it has to be. I have no other explanation for it
