Answer
Your memory card may be high capacity or of a type that your computer memory card slot does not recognize. Reboot could solve the problem, but there could be lots of other things wrong e.g., the SD could be corrupted or the contacts dirty.

CAUTION To prevent memory card corruption, keep batteries charged, format in camera, and don't delete or fill card completely. Wait for lights to stop flashing then turn camera off before removing memory. For card readers, double click Safely Remove Hardware. Select, then click Stop and OK.

When pictures have been deleted or memory cards have been formatted, a memory card reader will be needed to recover the pictures. Click this link for a free restoration program.

If you are still having trouble, the following information describes a better way to move/copy photos to and from a computer or memory card.

Just received some pictures in an e-mail which I moved to the computer. Then copied these pictures to a memory card and could view them on my camera or show on TV. If megapixels of imported pictures is too high or low you may not be able to view on the camera, but pictures will show and print on computers.

If your computer has memory card slots, find the correct slot and copy pictures from the memory card to the computer.

If there are no memory card slots on your computer that work with your memory card, purchase a Targus card reader at Walmart for $8.88 or another brand for less at Ritz/Wolf/Kit camera. Also, they do 3½ x 5" digital prints for 6¢ each on Tuesday and Wednesday.

After you have the memory card plugged in, go to My Computer and open the memory card, select the picture you want to copy, and then copy to the My Pictures folder under My Documents under Documents and Settings.

If you have trouble with this, it may be easier to right click on Start and then left click Explore. Find and select the picture you want to copy and then at top left, click the X next to Folders to see a place to select Copy Files. Now select the My Picture folder. Make and select a sub folder then click Copy.


You can also copy from the computer to a memory card.

Have just been playing with this and found that it works really well, but you should first format the memory card in the camera because it adds files to the card you will need.

Next, take a picture of something with the camera.

Place the memory card in the card reader and go to My Computer.

Open the memory card and you should see a folder on the left (DCIM) that has your picture. Do not open the MISC folder on the right.

Double Click on the DCIM folder and you should see another folder e.g.,100HPM417, which includes the name of your camera. Double Click on that folder and you should see the picture you just took.

When you copy from the computer to a memory card, that is the folder where your pictures must be copied. You may only be able to copy one picture at a time.

One last thing, the file names of your pictures must not have any additional letters or those pictures will not be seen by the camera. Also, the file name format must match the file name of the picture you took e.g., HPIM1903. Rename files to the same format as your camera photos.

If you have trouble with this, it may be easier to right click on Start and then left click Explore. Find and select the pictures you want to copy and then near the top left, click the X next to Folders to see a place to select Copy files. You can then select the memory card folder e.g.,100HPM417, that you clicked to see the picture you took and click Copy.

what type of laptop to buy?




fosmom


we want to buy our daughter a laptop for her birthday - she's a myspace and ipod kind of kid - what brand? what gig? what processor? what memory? I know nothing! HELP!


Answer
Laptops these days are supercharged, have too much memory, hard drive space, and processor speed, none of which are required to such an extent unless the laptop will be used for heavy duty programming, high-def designing, or high-def gaming. An average laptop lasts for a couple of years and people usually end up getting a new one. I suggest you go with a decent laptop that is reasonably priced so that she can get a new one a couple of years from now since technology is so quickly evolving.

Go with 2-3 GB RAM (Memory), 200+ GB Hard Drive, Dual-Core Processor (1.5 GHz or more - Intel or AMD). If she is into myspace, an integrated card reader would be good to make photo upload easy fro a camera and also songs can be transferred easily to an mp3 player or ipod. An integrated webcam would be good. If she is in school, i'd suggest a small laptop that weighs less than 6 pounds.

Here are a few recommendations along with links to buy them at a reasonable price.

Gateway T-1424u Laptop Computer
Priced at $479.99.
Specs:
- AMD Athlon Dual Core Processor 1.90 GHz
- 3 GB RAM
- 5-in-1 card reader
- 1.3 Megapixel integrated webcam
- weight: 5.5 pounds
- 320 GB Hard Drive
- Sleek and light weight
I think this will be a great gift. It is at Compusa and they charge only $1.99 for shipping. I found the cheapest price at:
http://www.dealjuggler.com/Gateway-T-1424u-Laptop-Computer---Only-$479.99.html
The sale is through compusa.

This is another excellent laptop:
Toshiba 17 inch Satellite P305D-S8995E
Price: $598 (available online only) with free shipping to the nearest walmart store.
http://www.dealjuggler.com/Toshiba-17-inch-Satellite-P305D-S8995E-Laptop-PC---Only-$598.00-with-free-shipping-to-store.html
Specs:
- 4 GB RAM (Memory) - very fast
- 250 GB Hard Drive
- AMD Dual-Core processor 2.0 GHz
- 17" screen (big screen)
- Harman/Kardon stereo speakers

- Integrated card reader
- Weight: 7.5 pounds (heavy - would recommend less than 6 pounds). The weight is higher because of the large 17" screen size.
Overall, this is an excellent laptop at a great price.

Here is another very good laptop, inexpensive, fast
HP 550 Notebook PC
Price: $379.99 (usually retail is $499.99)
Sold by Compusa

- 160 GB Hard Drive
- Integrated card reader
- No webcam
- Weight: 5.5 pounds (light weight)

Hope the above was helpful
