elago mobile nano ii disconnects/reconnects constantly: elago Mobile Nano II USB 2.0 microSDHC Flash Memory Card Reader (Black) Is anyone else having an issue with this reader constantly disconnecting &amp; reconnection on its own?

I bought two of this item over a month ago with two identical Kingston 16GB Micro SD cards. One works fine and the other disconnect/reconnects every couple of minutes, similar to yours. I checked the micro SD cards, and they both work fine in the working Elago nano. So i wonder if it's luck of the draw or if this a constant issue with some of these units.

It's apparently compatible with the first generation Nano, since there's an adaptor in theor for it. HOWEVER -- It is NOT compatible with Generation II Nano -- I just tried it (having just bought a new Nano 8 gb). I should not be so harsh -- You can hang the new nano on the plug, and the nano is light enough that it holds OK. But, I'd be more comfortable if the adaptor was in there, since it would be more likely to be held without damaging the plug/socket.

I have used the USB and SD card reader at the same time without problem. Hope it works for you as well.

Mine still works great. It did seem like it was not working as well, but just by chance, I used a different USB cable, and it still works as good now as it did when I got it a few months ago.

This is a USB device - neither of those has a USB port. If you had some sort of adaptor, then, you'd need a driver for the reader that would run on your device. Unlikely you'd find that since neither has a USB port so not many people will be running this reader. There is a real lack of card reader support for mobile devices.

S. Jordan,Thanks! that helps :)Also would anybody know if it works with the newer "PRO Duo" 1GB & 4GB memory sticks?ie i have older 128-512MB Sony Memory Sticks that are long & blue.I also have newer 1GB & 4GB that are shorter & black (PRO Duo?)..which i must use an Adapter in my older Sony Digicams.hope that makes sense :)

Sometimes when I put in A Compact Flash card to the C.F. slot , the computer will REBOOT ( the computer will re-start ) this has happened 3 - times in the last 6 - months , I am NOT very worried about this as it hasen't affected the computer or the memory card . Gary S Meredith

How did you get a CF Card into a USB Port? If you used an adapter then the problem might be with that. With CF cards don't you need a CF Card Reader? I have a couple of SanDisk 8GB USB's and they seem to work well with the UNITEK 3 Port USB hub.

The microSD connection is as durable as any typical SD card reader. I've had mine for 2 years and have no issues. The usb connection is steel and will last a long time. I've used plastic microSD card readers in the past and they were broken in only a few weeks of use.

Tried it on my Galaxy Note 10 2014 edition in both USB and Card Reader mode. Never got either to work. Got an "Unrecognized Device" error when I inserted the SD card in Card Reader mode. I would say explore other options.

G. Powers,That is possible. Have you tried any other cards? I have not had any issues at all with this reader. If not try connecting the device directly to the computer, good luck my friend.

I got this one on amazon. Has been working fine with no issues for several months now:SanDisk Ultra 32GB MicroSDHC Class 10 UHS Memory Card Speed Up To 30MB/s With Adapter, Frustration-Free Packaging - SDSDQU-032G-AFFP-A [Old Version]

The nano's are more reliable than the Classic versions. My old 60GB failed 3 times over the course of 4yrs while my 2nd gen Nano has never failed and I've had it for 3yrs. I have this 120GB Classic now though and it's been going strong for 6 months.

Sometimes the connection on the back usb port has trouble. I had that too. My solution was to plug it into one of the usb ports on the front. They work better for some reason.

I have had mine installed for about 5 months now. I typically have my phone connected to it as a USB Hard Drive. I have yet to try a thumb drive but I have done my Phone and my MP3 Player and it does not have any problem reading either. There was a time where it didn't read anything but that was a problem with the cable I was using. The only gripe I have with the deck is when I have it set to shuffle the device playlist, it will only shuffle the current album playing. Other than that it works amazing. I have yet to try the AUX port but that is because the USB is working great for me.

I have had the same problem since owning mine since 6/3/2007. After each time that I recharge/sync it the Nano will freeze, requiring a reset to get it working again. After that it will work fine each time I turn it on up until recharging/resyncing it again. This is rather annoying considering that I just upgraded from a 1st gen 2GB Nano to a 4GB 2nd gen.

When i plugged in mine it the device regognised it without a problem. If you are having a problem maybe you can try another type of flash memory. (Kingston) Unfortunately i could never connect my phone's memory through usb
