The older the N900 the more chances you could also have lost the tiny magnet located under the clip stand on the rear, check that also ok.

U mean the magnet for the kickstand has something to do with the sd card?

Yep because if it is not there your sd card will not be recognised.

Absolutely. I didn't bring up this possibility because typically the user would say the card USED to work till recently, or something like that. The OP seemed to be saying that this card NEVER worked.

Thanks by this tip.
Comfirmed that you need the magnet in the kickstand to sd card be recognized.
I lost mine months ago and have to use another kickstand to copy files from sd card.
