Is that the size of your MicroSD card? Disk Utility will identify the drive so you should not have any doubt. You also can eject the card and if it disappears from the table you have the right one.

Right, I did know the memory would show a little bit less but what is showing 
in the main part of the window is like 512 GB or something weird like that. 
More like my hard drive which makes me scared to do anything because I’m afraid 
to mess up my hard drive. I’m not really sure what I’m supposed to do.

Thanks,

   What was the card used with? Yes always use an adapter when using microSD.

   When in disk utility, are you seeing the card at all? The capacity in Get 
Info will always be less than the card's stated capacity. The difference is the 
space used when the card is formatted.

   I inserted one I have and it was instantly recognized, was formatted with MS 
DOS.

Hi all,

I have a Mac and it has an SD card slot. I put the micro SD card inside the 
adapter that came with it to make the micro card standard size. I put the 
memory card in the slot and I get a message that says something like the card 
you inserted cannot be read by this computer. I am then given a choice to 
ignore, eject or initialize. I tried the initialize option thinking it would 
give me a way to format the card. I believe disk utility opened. I could not 
figure out anything past that. In the table i made sure and select the card and 
then went to the main part of the window and I just got information about my 
hard drive and not the card. The GB of memory did not match the card. I did 
google how to format the card but It was not fruitful. I need to use this card 
with my stream. I tried formatting the card with the stream but that didn’t 
help. The stream can read the card but my Mac cannot. I am running latest 
version of El Capitan.

Thanks,
Christina
