Hi Jim It is likely that the CF card doesn't go right in, so that there is a protrusion where you can pull it out. Mine is like this. I can't remember what it's called now, but I've had it for a long time, and the CF cards don't go right in, making it look as though they don't fit.

However, when I tried to insert either of the two cards, they don't fit, that is, they seem to encounter an obstruction. I know its the right slot as its the only slot on that side of the reader, and its the correct width. Has anybody encountered this problem before, and can I purchase an adapter which will let me use the cards on this particular card reader. It's an Ex-pro all in one usb card reader and cost me £5.46 from Amazon. All help welcome.
