Can't remove SD card

Ray44406 · 12-14-07, 01:40 PM

I just bought a micro SD card with SD card adapter. The card & adapter inserted properly and was recognized by Axim. I cannot remove card because it somehow catches on left side of card (lock switch side). The card when pushed in disengages and comes out of slot about a quarter inch and catches on something. Any ideas on how to get my card out?

I know there's a small notch on that side of the SD card. Try using some tweezers are pull slightly. I wouldn't try to force it hard. But, maybe a little extra pressure might free it up.

I know even my SD cards catch on this notch and I have to pull a little harder.

Success! Used an index card cut to width of SD card and worked it in between face side of card and copper clad hold down spring. Together pulled card and index cardboard out. It appeared the SD card was catching where the micro SD card plugged in the adapter card.
