The reader has one requirement.

The reader must support SDHC cards. My first Windows 7 laptop didn't do SDHC! So for that machine I had to use a USB reader.

Also, it is possible the format is corrupt. Once you save what's on there, format that media.

Sorry but it's a little hard to understand why you didn't understand I had to use another USB card reader. And how to format a memory card is all over the internet as well in the menus of most cameras.

Without you mentioning an OS or your camera, I can't be more specific.
