It works if you either specify ToPackedArray/PackedArrayQ by context:
myPackedData = Developer`ToPackedArray[mydata,Real];
Developer`PackedArrayQ[myPackedData]
True
or add Developer` to $ContextPath:
$ContextPath = Prepend[$ContextPath, "Developer`"]
ToPackedArray[mydata,Real];
PackedArrayQ[myPackedData]
True
Best,
(another) O. R.
