Macs need to have a driver installed to read P2 cards properly. It's on the CD that came with the HVX200. Also, be sure you have your camera in computer mode (where you hold that tiny button down for a few seconds).

Data Resuce II won't read the FAT32 file format of the P2 card. Isn't there some sort of repair function in the HVX200 for this type of thing?

Do both P2 cards mount like hard drives to your desktop as they should?

I've had this happen and know there is a "repair clip" function but can't remember if it's in the camera program or the P2viewer program. The damage occurred when I shut the camera off while it was still recording.

This may not be the same problem you have but could be. Sorry I don't have my cam with me so can't verify this first hand at the moment.
