3. Simply “drag and drop” folders or individual files to a desired location.
Macintosh
The SmartMedia Card will appear as a drive icon on the desktop. It can be accessed
the same as a removable hard disk.
To copy files from your card to your hard disk or vice versa, perform the following steps:
1. Double-click on the icon that appears on the desktop.
2. Hold the Option key down and simply “drag and drop” folders or individual files to a
desired location.
Windows and Macintosh users please note the following:
•
In order to access file formats such as JPEG, TIFF or MP3, you will need a software
program that can open these files. Most digital devices that use specific formats will
include software to access the files. Refer to your device manual for more informa-
tion.
•
When transferring files to a common location on your computer, it is recommended
that you re-name the files to avoid overwriting previous files. Most cameras simply
number the picture files and begin at 001 when a blank card is inserted. This can
result in two or more files on your computer having the same name, prompting you
to overwrite.
Inserting a SmartMediaCard
Position the card with the arrow-side up and toward the
reader and the gold contact side down. Insert it gently
but firmly into the slot. Be careful to insert the card in
the proper direction. Inserting a card up-side down or
forcing it may result in damage to the card and/or
reader. (See Figure 3)
