Multicard reader !!!
I hope this is the place to come for advice. I have brought a digital photo
frame for a christmas pressy and want to put some photos on for them. I then realised I needed a memory card so hotfooted it to the shop and bought a compatable one. I have the pictures on a memory stick but could not transfer them over so have now bought a multicard reader by special delivery from Amerzon but now wonder if this is what I need as I have not opened it thinking it needs to be a reader writer???? Can anyone please advise? |

I imagine your card reader will be able to write as well; the card is much
like a floppy disk (not like a CD), so the card reader is like a disk drive. -- Suzanne S.

Wow! Let's start by saying that this is a Newsgroup for Microsoft Word and
your questions are WAY off topic. Also, you do not seem to have thought out your requirements and have made some very rash purchases without knowing what you are doing. Did you read the manual that came with the photo frame? Now I don't have a digital photo frame and have never even seen such a device, but my guess is that they accept a memory card that holds pictures in the required format for the frame to display. The larger the memory card, the more photos it will hold. But to transfer pictures to the memory card, you need to connect it to your computer. That requires the MultiCard Reader that you have purchased (note that although it is called a reader, it should both read and write to the memory card). Then you can transfer the photos from your computer to the card through the USB port. But read the instructions that came with the photo frame as they probably need to be in a particular format and a particular size depending on the frame. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "kitleo" u30454@uwe wrote in message news:6b3405b6e7186@uwe...

Suzanne has answered your question but, for future reference, this wasn't
the correct place to ask it. This group is for questions about Word. Yours is more of a hardware question - or maybe Windows. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "kitleo" u30454@uwe wrote in message news:6b3405b6e7186@uwe...

Thankyou Suzanne for your help, I am a complete notive and didn't know where
to go to ask for help. The instructions with the photoframe are so basic and give no help. I really appreciate your kindness. Happy Christmas Suzanne S.

I am very sorry Terry if I have caused offence by asking my question here,
but I am a bit of a novice when it comes to computers and this was the only place I could find after some time of searching. I always understood that people who understand these things are kind enough to offer guidance - so asked. The instructions with the photo frame are all but non-existant and I spent a long time reading it though to work out for myself that I needed something to hold the photos (the card) and then again something to transfer the images. I just want to make someone happy at Christmas with a collection of photos that they can look at and paniced when I got home to read that it said reader not reader/writer. I was unaware that a reader can also mean that it will write as well. Also I was unaware that memory cards are a form of floppy disk and not a cd. I know that the format of my photos are ok as it reads them from the 'stick pen' I have. Thank you for your reply. Happy Christmas Terry Farrell wrote: Wow!

I realized that but thought for future reference I could give you something
to tuck away, just in case it's needed. And by the way, this group is for questions about Microsoft Word only. IIRC, there are newsgroups for everything that Microsoft has. From games to hardware. You just need to figure out specifically what your question pertains to. Sometimes it applies to more than one. In that case, pick the one that you think is probably the best option to get an answer. If that doesn't work, you can always try in another group.
