My iPad Air 4th gen won’t read my usb c sad card reader

Hello, and thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

You've posted from this article: Import photos using Apple camera adapters This article has some great steps to take if you've run into any issues.

"If you don’t see the import option

If you don't see the Import tab, follow these steps:

1. Make sure that your digital camera is on and in the correct mode to export images.
2. Disconnect the adapter, wait 30 seconds, then reconnect it.
3. Unplug the digital camera or SD card, wait 30 seconds, then reconnect.
4. Restart your iOS device and turn your camera off and back on.
5. If one is available, test with a different digital camera or SD card. If you can import media with a different digital camera or SD card, there might be an issue with the data on the camera or SD card. Try to import the data to another device or computer, then use your digital camera to format—or reset—the SD card. Reformatting will erase all the images on the SD card. Check the manual for your digital camera for more help.

If you can’t import some content

Apple camera adapters can import multiple types of media files from your digital camera or SD card. If the format isn't compatible with iOS, you won’t be able to view them on your device, but can import them to your computer later.

Apple camera adapters can import only content that was captured by digital cameras. You might not be able to import content that was renamed, edited, or copied to the digital camera or SD card."

If you're still having troubles, try using another SD card reader if possible. If another reader works without any issue, contact the manufacturer of that card reader. Here's another great resource: Charge and connect with the USB-C port on your iPad

Best regards.
