Using a MAC

Hi everybody I have a new MAC running OSX 10.9.5 (Mavericks) and would like to rearrange the order of styles on the computer (preferably right on the SD card) instead of loading and saving them on the KN7000 which is very time consuming. If I click on t…

Re: sd card reader

Hi Bill, in relation to this post, are you using the Panasonic SD Card reader? Do you have more than one SD Card or do you only have the one which has lost files (that we're discussing in the other thread)?

Re: sd card trouble

Hi Bill, Firstly, do not save anything else on the card and do not delete anything else off the card, until we see whether we can fix it. You can view files on the card but don't do anything else yet. Don't worry if you have done so already but only view …
