Accessing a Card on a PC
When the Hi-Speed Digital Media Reader/Writer is connected to your PC, a
Removable Disk icon appears in My Computer (with a newly assigned drive
letter).
Note:
The screen below may vary slightly from the window displayed on your
computer.
If you are running Windows XP and you insert a digital media card, a dialog box
appears that asks what you want to do with the files on the Removable Disk. You
can access the files by selecting from several options. This is a default feature of
Windows XP. For all other supported versions of Windows (including XP) you
can access a card as follows:
1.
Double-click on the
Removable Disk
icon.
The contents of the media card appear. You can then access the data on the
card. Digital cameras usually create one or more folders on a digital media card,
which contains your digital images. To display a digital image, open the folder(s)
then double-click on the icon(s) representing the digital image(s) you want to
view.
Note:
If a card is not inserted when you double-click a Removable Disk icon, a
message appears that says:
Device not ready
or
Please insert a disk
. If you see
this message, insert a card and try accessing the media again.
2.
To transfer files between your computer and a card, use the basic
Windows file transfer functions. For example, drag and drop or copy and
paste files from your computer to a card or from a card to your computer.
Removing a Card on a PC
Before you remove a digital media card, be sure the read/write operations are
complete. Removing a card during read/write access causes lost or corrupted
data. To remove a card, grasp the end of the card with your thumb and index
fingers, and remove it from the slot.
