You can connect the DPF to a Windows PC or Macintosh computer via the USB cable (included) to copy files between the computer and the DPF’s internal
memory.

If you have memory cards inserted in the DPF, you can also copy between the PC, internal memory, and memory cards.

Connect DPF to Windows PC

1.

Connect the small end of the USB cable to DPF’s Mini USB port, and the larger end to an available USB port on your computer.

2.

A window opens listing all drives connected to your computer.

3.

The internal memory (titled Pandigital) and each memory card present in the DPF will be associated with one disk drive on your computer.

)

IMPORTANT: If your PC is connected to Local Area Network drives, or if you have multiple drive letters already assigned to peripheral devices,

you will need to manage your drive settings in Windows to free up the four drive letters immediately following your CD-ROM drive
so the DPF can assign them to memory card slots properly.

4.

Double-click the desired drive to display the files on the card. The following example shows a card listing several JPG images.

5.

To copy files from a media source, select and drag them into the DPF’s internal memory drive (Pandigital).

6.

Similarly, to copy files from your computer to the internal memory, first locate the files on your computer, select the files you want to copy, and then drag
and drop them into the appropriate folder in the DPF’s internal memory drive.

TIP: Most cameras and graphic programs store photos in the Windows XP ‘My Pictures’ or Vista ‘Pictures’ folder. If you didn’t save them to any other

location, you may find them there.
