Photo data on removable devices such as memory cards cannot be edited directly.
Please copy the data to a storage device such as a hard disk or SSD before editing.

Thank you Yamato7,

I'm not trying to edit the images on the sd card I just want Lightroom to see the card so I can drag the images to a folder on my hard drive and then edit my images from there. I know I can copy my images to a folder of my choice using finder, I just don't understand why I can't do it through Lightroom.

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
