Fostex MR-8 card error 09

Hi there. I'm having trouble with my Fostex MR-8 CF card. It's an intermittent problem that keeps popping up saying card error 09. I've reformatted (also from an external source as well as the MR-8). Sometimes I can get away with recording a song and immediately transfering onto the computer, but the next time it will get halfway through and then corrupt again.

Is there a way to fool the MR-8 to connect with a MAC to record directly into Garageband, or as an alternative, for mixing in Garageband? Analog output to analog/digital interface?

I know the machine is designed to connect to a PC or use a card reader to bring the WAV file into the MAC, but it seems like ther should be a way to fool it.

A way to transfer files onto a Fostex mr-8

Is there a way to transfer .WAV files that were say recorded in Pro Tools LE onto my fostex mr-8?

Say like I recorded the bass and guitar at my friend's studio on Pro Tools, and then I want to finish the rest at my own home studio. Would I be able to put the wave on a DATA CD, and via USB put it on the mr-8?
