6.2 Mounting and dismounting card on computers
On Windows XP and Windows 2000 you can avoid confusing the
system or, worst case, end up with a CF-card that was unintentionally
erased, it is required to safely eject the card by right clicking the icon in
“My Computer” and select the “Eject” option.
On a Mac the card have to be unmounted, by dragging it into the trash,
or selecting eject in the “File” menu, or ejecting from the Capture panel
inside the Capture One software.
Just removing it, and reinserting it can confuse the system, possibly
resulting in uncontrolled read or write errors. If this happens, restarting
the computer usually solves the problems.
Preparing the CF-cards
Most CF cards are pre-formatted and ready to be used in the P+ back.
The P+ back supports cards formatted in either FAT 16 or FAT 32.
If your card is not recognized in the P+ back it is possibly due to a
wrong le system formatting on the card.
Mac HFS, UNIX or NTFS le systems are not supported by the P+ back,
and cards with these le systems will not be recognized.
The card will have to be formatted in either FAT 16 or FAT 32 using a
computer, Mac OS X or Windows.
