HI all
I have been trying to transfer pictures from my computer back to the camera.
I am using a 128 Olympus card. The computer tells me the pics have been
transfered, but I am not able to see them on the camera.
When I try the same with a 16 card, all works fine!
Can anyone help.
Thanks in advance,
Toby

Try transferring the photos and then "safely remove" the storage device
through windows.

Are you sure you're transferring them back to the same folder on the xD
card?

Digital cameras generally have one folder named "DCIM" on the card, and one
or more folders under that that contain the photo images. Those other
folders will have names specific to the make and model of camera, and the
camera will only "see" photos in its own folder(s). I don't know about xD
cards but I presume they work the same as other types.

There should be no difference between 128MB and 16MB cards as far as this
goes.

I do see more than 1 folder on the smaller cards, but not on the big one.
Does it need formating or something?
