well, first of all lemme see...
1 my computer stopped recognizing my SD card... and i need to use it ive used it on my wii only once and i put some pics in it, but i wanna put some songs and more stuff, but my PC wont even let me know if it is inside the pc... even if i insert the card on the slot, so i need help on that

2 I used to have that video downloader thing on firefox, but it doesnt work anymore XD is there a solution? or any other good video downloader for youtube?

Sorry I'm not very familiar with SD cards, but for your other problem, I've also noticed the video downloader firefox extension wasn't working. It's not the extension problem, its actually the site that doesn't work(http://videodownloader.net). I'm not sure what the reason for the problem, but here's a site that works

My best guess is that the Wii changes the file format in such a way that only it recognizes it when you put stuff on it.

Does that same SD card still work with the Wii? Is it just your computer? Try it in another device, like someone else's computer or a camera.

If the SD reader wont work. It won't work. Buy a USB card reader for like $20 max, it's what I got because my computer is OUTDATED, like every computer nowadays, and doesn't have a card reader.

Video Downloader for Youtube, eh.. go with snoblo's answer or do the complicated thing i do!

# Copy the code and paste it into a text edit program like TextEdit (Mac) or Notepad (PC). The code will look something like this:

<object width="425" height="350">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-oNQXLNMh0c"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-oNQXLNMh0c" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

# You are looking for the URL of the video file. In the example above that would be: http://www.youtube.com/v/-oNQXLNMh0c. Copy this URL and paste it into a new web browser window and press the Return/Enter key on your keyboard.

# The YouTube clip should load your web browser as a full screen clip. Press play and wait for the video to load.

# Now take a closer look at the URL. It's different than what you pasted in there. It's a lot longer right? It should look something like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch_fullscreen?video_id= -oNQXLNMh0c&eurl=&iurl=http%3A//sjl-
static5.sjl.youtube.com/vi/......8X90swYCiZMZTzBdb

# The next step is to change the piece of code that says "watch_fullscreen" to "get_video". So the example above should look like this after the change: http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=-oNQXLNMh0c&eurl=&iurl=http://sjl-
tatic5.sjl.youtube.com/vi/-oNQXLNMh0c/2.jp...PDskJaNd08X90swYCiZMZTzBdb

And convert via WINFF.

YAY old school.

Maaaaaaybe... however I would try one thing before scrapping what might be a perfectly fine piece of hardware. My first guess in this sort of situation would be some sort of driver problem... have you possibly reinstalled windows around the time you noticed it stopped working? Whether you have or not, I would still suggest going to the website of your computers manufacturer (dell.com, hp.com, etc) and looking up the driver for your card reader. Go to "Support" and then there should be some sort of way to look up your particular model. Then go to "Drivers and Downloads" or something along those lines, and see if you can find the download that corresponds to the card reader.

mmmm just wondering what's WINFF?

I've used it a few times, but I've found other alternatives that I liked better =P

For video downloading... why not just find a new add-on for Firefox, there is more than one decent one:
