I am trying to launch the Cartdumper app from the Home-brew menu but no apps are showng. I just get the message about needing a switch folder on the sd card and putting the apps in it.
I have done this but still nothing shows up.
(I am doing this on a MAC)

OSX should not be at fault. Using it and many with me.

Just to verify;
1 - the switch folder you created is literally named "switch" and at the root of your sd-car right
2 - what is the current contents of the switch folder?
3 - for reference and troubleshooting; what type of micro sdxc is it?

Hmm all three the same brand / edition?
Seeing as I am using; sandisk ultra microSDXC UHS-I A1 400GB the 128GB model should work...
Does the Switch show it in Data Management at all?

SX loader and hekate all same error my micro sd not connected
Was not hoping to read you already tried multiple payloads.
But that is just weird, so in OFW mode you have an SDXC and in CFW you do not.
But only on this Switch ... hmmmm ... logic dictates that something is of then ... but well as your Switch can see it in OFW ... I have no idea what it could be really.

HR group released today a new L.A Noire dump, maybe that one will work?
you can try but i can guarantee you it wont
sx os does not emulate IR camera correctly, as well for nitendo labo games, or 1-2 switch eating minigame, that is why it crashes.

I would say access instead of emulate to be honest ;)
It's not like they are rewriting that part.

On a side note I did notice some weird behavior in SX CFW last night;
I tried using the album to actually post something to Facebook.
So I press and hold L access the album and selected a photo to post to Facebook.
It tried to to redirect the request to the backup loader.
Only way around that was to keep L pressed when going through the actions.

Perhaps that is still something they need to iron out.

I’m having the same exact problem, can’t boot sx os from the dongle or boot hekate, “sd init failed” or something. I’m using a sandisk ultra 64gb.

sorry do you do update to read Exfat when first enter micro sd?

if yes the possibility of nintendo has closed the gap
