Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sandisk ImageMate 5-in-1 USB 2.0 Flash Memory Card Reader SDDR-99

Customer Review: Unclear tech info
Summary: 1 Stars

We own a Cannon Powershot G3 and use the SD Ultra II compact flash memory card. I read all the reviews about using the SD cards and thought this product would work just fine for the price. It arrived and the SD Ultra II card did not fit so we can't use the reader. My husband now assumes the mention of SD stands for something else, not SANDISK. I do not like to use the 1 star rating since we did not get the opportunity to actually use the card but I thought it was important to make other shoppers aware, who are not technical like us, that the type of card we own will not fit.

Customer Review: Easy and Straightforward
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this transfer devise to upload my photos to my iBook G4. I love using this because it is so simple to do. There is no complex software, I just plug it in to my USB port and it downloads my photos to iPhoto with one button click. One great feature is that it gives me the option of deleting my disk as it transfers the photos. Another great feature is there is no need for batteries as it uses the computer as a power source. I have had no problems with this devise and am very satisfied. It is very small and lightweight and easy to carry with your laptop.

Customer Review: works great-very fast way to move pictures
Summary: 4 Stars

I wish I had discovered this device earlier. It really takes a lot of frustration out of moving pictures from camera to computer. It's a much, much faster transfer. My only (minor)complaint is that at least on my computer, I can't shut it it down from the system tray using the little "safely remove hardware" icon. But after I've cleaned off an SD card, it probably wouldn't hurt to just remove the device without going through the steps. Just to be safe, I usually leave the reader plugged in until I shut down the computer itself.

Customer Review: Not for Mac, not 5 in 1
Summary: 2 Stars

I have owned this card reader for some time now, haven't been able to find out how to insert any other than SD cards yet, I don't know what 5 in 1 refers to! As far as connectivity goes, PC is fine but Mac has serious problems, since I'm primarily a Mac user, the reader is mainly useless to me, I have to plug and unplug it to my USB port, restart my Mac, plug and unplug the cord to the device until finally it sometimes works. It's a software issue since one of my Macs has bootcamp installed and when running Windows it works always.

Customer Review: WORKS ONCE, THEN NEVER AGAIN
Summary: 1 Stars

I use a MacBook, running on OS X. The first time I plugged the reader in (following the directions specifically toward Mac users in the book) everything went fine. The photos imported into iPhoto and I imported them into the computer. I disconnected it the way the book told me to. The second time however, the reader's light did not light up, did not recgonize the memory card. It would not eject from my computer. I unplugged it, and the memory card now says "File Error" when I try to use it on my computer. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
