No, this kext doesn't make this card reader detected in my os x 10.11.4. You wrote in previous post, that you have modified /usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle. You did it or I misunderstood you?

yes i did it and i reached the same end Bulk interface
you have to search for line 116 or add a new one using sudo nano

Strange. The PCIe Card Reader in my Probook 6570b works wonders on 10.11.5. It's not detected as Apple internal cardreader tho, but it works nicely.

7. Next, find Vendor Identification and change on the Value sections as "Anything Name That you Want", i use my USB Card name "Genesys Logic", if you dont know how to find your USB Card Reader name, change it to Generic or what its on your System Report on the USB Section


So, what if the System report does not see it at all? I have an internal card reader on a Dell Optiplex 960, and it attaches to the mobo directly, however it is not even showing up as a generic device so I can't see its vendor ID anywhere. What options are there?

I don't think any of Realtek's USB2.0-CRW works... Best to disable it.

Hey guys, I have a UX303LA laptop which has a USB based card reader by Genesis, I was hoping if something here can help me get it natively recognised by OS X?

Cheers

Hi guys,
For USB2.0-CRW 0xBDA 0x129 there is a workaround
Install Parallels and install windows any version
and link your USB2.0-CRW through parallels to windows and install it's windows drivers.
You have a fully working SDcard Reader

Hi All and Merry Christmas!

Thanks for this good guide.
I have a question about T410 NVS 3100 + Ricoh SD/MMC cardreader on El Capitan 10.11.6:

<key>idProduct</key>
<integer>59426</integer>
<key>idVendor</key>
<integer>4480</integer>

I'm attaching my Info.plist from AppleUSBCardReader.kext with converted and replaced all vendor and dev_id strings. There is no SD reader in USB devices at all.
So far no luck but maybe I am missing something?

Thanks in advance!

You may have one of the PCI sd card readers which I have been working on getting it to work to check if it is a PCI card reader open DPCIManger and if its in the list it is and this method won't work for you if its not in the list then you have some usb problems still and this method will work for you once you fix the usb problems. If it is a PCI card reader I'd like you to try this method here and report back
