It happens on my iMac as well. It's always a good habit to eject any cards, iPods, temporary USB drives, etc, when you are finished with them and before going on with anything else.

The opposite is happening to me right now. I've transferred the images from my SD card on to my hard drive, and reviewed them after importing to Aperture. Tried to eject the card, and am told I can't because the card is still in use, to quit the applications using it.

Well, I've quit everything except mail, and it still thinks it's in use.

May be tied to the behavior change I had happen in Aperture after I imported the images. The thumbnails took forever to be drawn, I couldn't see them in thumbnail view, but could se the full size image if I clicked n the empty spot where the thumbnail should have been.

They all show up fine this morning, and the finder icons are fine too. Probably need a restart, or re-importing the image files.

I've had that happen with other programs. The solution is to close the program before removing the card or card reader. I don't know if LR does that, and
I am not particularly interested in finding  out.

A lot of programs aren't very smart. :-)
