There are differences between MMC and SD card. The init sequence for SD and MMC is different and some SD cards might not initialize correctly if you use the MMC init sequence. Very briefly in SPI mode the initialization commands for MMC are : CMD0, CMD1, CMD2, CMD3, while for SD use a sequence of: CMD0, CMD41, CMD55, CMD2, CMD3. If your hardware is OK, you only need to change the init sequence and it should work. Good luck.
