Transferring Pictures
Once the adapter and card are installed in your computer’s
PCMCIA slot, you can transfer pictures by simply copying
them to your hard drive. This is the fastest way to get
pictures into your computer.
◗
In Windows 95, use My Computer or the Windows
Explorer to drag and drop image files to your hard drive.
◗
In Windows 3.1, use the Windows File Manager to copy
image files to your hard drive.
You can also download the pictures using Image Expert.
Formatting a Storage Card
Most SmartMedia cards are already formatted when you buy
them. If you are unable to add images to your SmartMedia
card, you may need to format the card. Follow these steps:
1
Install the storage card in the camera.
2
Hold down the
ERASE
button and then press the
S-Hi/Hi/S button for 2 seconds or until the “pictures
remaining” number changes.
NOTE
Be sure to press the indentation in the center of the ERASE
button. You may need to press it with your fingernail instead of
your finger.
If you are unable to format a Simple Technology card, contact the
Technical Support Department at (800) 4-SIMPLE.
