Inserting a MultiMediaCard

Inserting a MultiMediaCard

On Windows systems the MultiMediaCard will appear as a drive icon in My Computer. It can be accessed the same as a removable hard disk. On some systems, the drive icon will not appear unless a card is installed.

On Macintosh systems, the MultiMediaCard will appear as a drive icon on the desktop. It can be accessed the same as a removable hard disk.

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 information.

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.

On Windows systems, to copy files from your card to your hard disk or vice versa, perform the following steps:

1.Double-click on My Computer.

2.Double-click on the Removable Disk icon.

3.Simply “drag and drop” folders or individual files to a desired location.

On Macintosh systems, 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.

Removing a MultiMediaCard

First close any files residing on the card that are open. This will prevent errors from a program trying to access data on a card no longer in the Reader. On a Macintosh, drag the card icon to Trash before removing the card.

DO NOT remove the MultiMediaCard while files are being accessed or transferred. This could result in loss of data and/or damage to the card.

To remove a MultiMediaCard, simply pull it from the Reader.
