Can't Load Current Data onto Sleepyhead - Jasperini - 07-29-2017
Hi -
I can download the Sleepyhead software to my MacBook Air. But then I cannot seem to get my current data onto the software. When I pull the SD card from my machine, it is in the unlocked position. So, what would be my next step? Thanks for the help. I'm new to the software.

So I take it you have either an SD card slot or an SD card reader that can be plugged into a USB port on your MacBook Air?
The first time you run SleepyHead, you do have to create a "profile". You can create any name you want, and you can skip all the stuff about script, diagnosis, doctor, and contact information. SH doesn't need any of that to run.
To download the data into SleepyHead, you must have SleepyHead running AND the card in an SD card slot or card reader. In SleepyHead, go to the File menu and select "Import Data." SleepyHead should find the SD card if it mounted correctly to the operating system.
If SleepyHead complains that it cannot find a card, then use the Finder to check to see if there is a "No Name" disk in your Finder window. If "No Name" isn't there, then reinsert the SD card into the slot and see if that helps. On my own Mac, the SD card slot is kind of flakey because it gets crud in it sometimes. When I can't get the card to mount, I just use a cheap USB card reader because my USB ports seem to be much less flakey.

Thanks! Do you leave the SD card unlocked when you put it into the computer?

it's best to lock it, to stop any rewriting, you slide the side tab down
