LOS ANGELES — I miss my SD card slot already.

Shop for sd card reader mac at Best Buy. Find low everyday prices and buy online for delivery or in-store pick-up. Connect the SD card adapter to your computer by using an external card reader. Also note – Mac OS 10.6.5 or earlier does not support exFAT format, which most 64 GB SD cards are formatted to. Install adobe reader 9 for mac. This means that you won't be able to format or use exFAT card on your computer.

And I pine for the traditional USB slots on the MacBook Pro that I use to insert external hard drives, charge the iPhone, plug in my microphone for recording the Talking Tech podcast, and all sorts of other things.

Apple introduced super-pricey new Mac computers Thursday, and just like the company did away with floppy disks and CD/DVD drives in the past, it's now making a computer that's smaller, thinner, yada, yada, by killing the camera SD slot and removing the traditional USB slots. Now Apple wants us to use a new Thunderbolt USB-C slot that promises to power and run devices at the same time.

4 card slots support most xD-picture card, compactflash and secure digital and memory stick formats, including secure digital high capacity, SDXC, microSD, memory stick micro, memory stick PRO and memory stick duo. The MacBook Pro comes with a built-in SD card reader, so you can insert compatible SD cards and view their contents using the Media Reader. The cards must conform to SD 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x standards. Connect the SD card to your computer by using an external card reader. Save all the files from your SD card that you want to keep to your computer before moving to step 2. Mac notebooks use the USB bus to communicate with the SD card slot. They have a maximum speed of up to 480Mbit/s. Mac desktops use the PCIe bus to communicate with the SD card slot.

Know that your existing devices probably won't fit into the new slots — you'll need adapters and those will cost you. Accessories manufacturer Belkin announced a new USB-C dock Thursday to fit multiple devices, and it's expected to cost in the $300-400 range. Ca-ching!

The new Macs start at a hefty $1,499 and go up to $2,799, but once you add in extra RAM and memory, you'll probably spend way more. A friend suggested it would cost him about $4,500 to get the machine he needs.

The good news: Yes, there's still a headphone jack, unlike the recent iPhone 7, for those of us who like to listen to music, watch TV shows and movies and the like on the computer.

On the SD card omission, I understand it. Smartphones have replaced cameras as the dominant way people shoot photographs, so in Apple's thinking, who needs the SD card slot anymore? Well, I do. My best photos are taken on cameras, and I love having the SD card slot, not just to import photos, but to trade files in the office when we work on projects together.

If I was to buy one of these new MacBooks, I'd have to start dragging around a card reader, like I used to a few years ago, before SD card slots became so prevalent on laptops.

The big selling point of the new Macs is something called a TouchBar, a smartphone-like strip that replaces the current function keys, which we use to lower and raise the volume or screen brightness.

Now, you can do fun things like add emojis to your emails from the TouchPad, buy stuff with Apple Pay and click the TouchPad to confirm, and operate high-end programs like Final Cut Pro for video editing and Photoshop.

Sounds fun, and I look forward to trying them.

But owning one of the new Macs? Using touchscreen at the top of the computer would never trump having the extra slots for me. I can live without it.
