Using memory card readers

Optional memory cards provide secure data storage and convenient data sharing. These cards are often used with digital media–equipped cameras and PDAs as well as with other computers.

To determine the memory card formats that are supported on your computer, see Getting to know your computer on page 5.

Inserting a memory card

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the memory card connectors, use minimal force to insert a memory card.

1.Hold the card label-side up, with the connectors facing the computer.

2.Insert the card into the memory card reader, and then press in on the card until it is firmly seated.

You will hear a sound when the device has been detected, and a menu of options may be displayed.
