Your computer uses digital memory cards as external hard drives. After
transferring the images, for example, you can erase them from the card
so you can re-use it in your camera.
To erase the images from a card:
■
Erase an image(s) as you would any other file on a regular hard drive.
For example:
■
Select the image and press the Delete key on the computer’s
keyboard
■
Select the image and drag it to the Windows trashcan
■
Select the image and choose Cut from the Windows Edit menu.
You can copy files to the memory card using the standard Windows
copy and paste techniques to copy files from your computer to the card.
You can also copy images to a card by dragging them from the PaperPort
Desktop onto the card reader icon on PaperPort’s Link Bar.
On this Windows Desktop,
Removable Disks G and H are
the drive names assigned to
the CompactFlash and Smart-
Media cards. The drive names
on your Windows Desktop
may be different.
In this example, the selected
SmartMedia card has nine
images on it.
