In disk utility I have the 1gb RIM blackberry drive, then under it like a sub folder is is a drive called "blackberry".
When I click on the top one, the "mount" button is greyed out.
If I click on the sub-folder "blackberry", I have the mount button available, but it says "The disk "BLACKBERRY" could not be mounted. Try running First Aid on the disk and then retry mounting."
I verify and repair disk with not changes.
I did go to the "erase" option and it says volume format is MS-DOS (FAT) 16. That's what the blackberry formatted the chip as.
If I erase the volume format, the drive then mounts on the desktop. I started transferring music via the "missing sync" for blackberry and the phone restarted part way through the transfer. Then the phone says card not formatted. Ugggg.
Any suggestions?

This is the exact issue I am having with two 8130 (Verizon) and two different mac (G5 iMac and G4 iBook both running Leopard). I do know that others on these forums have indicated they can mount the cards on a mac so I'm hoping there is an interim fix.
