I have a Canon PowerShot SD630 I have photos from my brother's wedding on an 8gb scanDisk card. I am trying to import the photos onto my new MacBook Pro When I turn on it on the screen on my card says "memory car error" as well as "card locked" I have flipped the lock switch on the side of the card more times than I care to count. HELLLLLLP!!!!!

Hi there,
You take out your SD card and put it into a card reader.Then connect it with your macbook.And you can view the photos on it.
If this fails,you need to use a recovery program to recover the photos on it.I have succeed to recover photos from SD card with Tenorshare Data Recovery.Download it and scan your SD card to check out whether the photos can be retrieved.

Try to import all the photos via card reader..and your card needs to be formatted.

First of all, you should stop saving any new files to your canon camera (or SD card) or taking new pictures with you camera.

Then find some photo recovery software from this site Best Computer Software, which is of high quality and easy-to-use.

Digital Photo Recovery for Mac OS X

Here are the steps:

Step 1: Download and install the Digital Photo Recovery Software.

Step 2: Connect your camera (or SD card, memory card etc) to your Mac.

Step 3: Scan the source drive where your lost pictures located.

Step 4: Recover the lost pictures and save them to another drive instead of the source drive.

In your case, the formatting process may help you fix the "memory card error" problem. Of course, for the safety of the inner stored data, you'd better firstly restore all your reserved data back with the camera memory card data recovery program like 4Card Recovery:
