I recently bought a 1 GB SD card to use with a digital picture frame. After putting 506 pictures on it (for a total of 369 MB), I started getting a "Cannot Copy File or Directory" error and was not able to copy any more pictures to it. So, I think there must be some limit to the number of files that can be put on an SD card -- regardless of physical storage space. I think that all disks have 2 parts, kind of like a book. They have a "table of contents" part and a "data" part. The table of contents part keeps track of where all the individual data parts are stored. There must be only room for 500 some items in the "table of contents" part.

How do you import movie files from a SD card to a MacBook?

If your MacBook has an SD Card Reader, plug the card into it. It should appear on the desktop as a hard drive, probably called 'unnamed.' Drag files from the SD card to the hard drive. If your Macbook lacks an SD Card Slot, get an adapter or other device such as a printer with an SD Card Slot that will plug in to the MacBook. Plug that device into the MacBook, and proceed as before when the SD card appears on the desktop.
