I had my Smartmedia reader working... for about 4 days. I just realized that they released drivers for OS X. I installed them. And poof, my card reader was working.
I have the Microtech Snapshot USB Smartmedia card reader. Well, I recently installed the OS X 10.1.2 update. And now I can't use my card reader anymore.
I am not 100% sure that the update is what broke it, but reasonably sure. A lot of what was updated were the USB device support. Particularly the IOUSBMassStorage extension was updated a lot. This is something that the Microtech driver is dependant on.
So, my question... does anyone have one of the Microtech Smartmedia readers? And does it work for them under 10.1.2.
I'm so sad that my excitement of having my card reader working was so short-lived.
I've also posted to Microtech. Hopefully they will get back to me, although I've seen several people say that they often ignore these types of questions, especially if they are getting ready to release a soluition.
Cheers,
