More issues importing P2

It sounds as though other people are experiencing strangeness importing P2. I'm surprised nobody suggested getting the latest Panasonic driver for Mac to the last caller. Or does that even make a difference?

I have the latest driver from a couple of weeks ago. When I mount my camera to the Mac, I get one icon for (i think it's called) "unnamed drive".

but I have had problems seeing and importing all my files from both cards, so this leads me to this question...

With 2 P2 cards, should I see 1 drive per P2 card on the desktop or 1 total? I have at times seen two and at that time everything imported fine. I have also seen 1 drive and everything imported fine. But I have also seen one drive but only 1 P2 appeared to have mounted and half of my files were missing. Remounting the camera eventually fixed this and I found the missing files.

The other weird thing is when only 1 card mounted there were different filenames than when both cards mounted. I suspect this has something to do with spanning two cards with one file (?).

Can somebody shed light on the above for me?

thanks,
Td
 
Mounting more than one card at a time with the camera is very buggy on the Mac.

The Finder sometimes confuses the two and shows the same files on both cards...
 
I find this little bug when in the Finder window, I have the top left icon highlighted, the one with my computer name on it.

I just click the Desktop icon in the left hand column and poof, there's my two cards. Works every time.
