I have a 2 gig card that won't let you use that amount of room

I have a 2 gig card that I use for my mom's picture frame. It won't take a file of pictures that is only 449.1 MGs in size, will take a few then say it is full. Reformatted and even erased the 'unused space' says there is about 72 mgs used and 512 files! (ther were only 31 pictures on the card)
I did finally get it to take the whole file by copying the entire file on but can't move the files out to the root. what is going on? (using Mac running 10.4.5)

Reformat he frame's internal memory.
1. Click on the "Macintosh HD" icon.
2. Click on "Applications".
3. Click on "Utilities".
4. Click on "Disk Utility".
5. "Kodak" drive should be in the list showing a white drive icon
6. Click that icon and select “Erase”.
7. Select the “MS-DOS file system (FAT16)” option and give it a volume name e.g. "Kodak". The format will begin when you click the “Erase” button below.
8. Try to copy the files to the re-formatted internal memory of the frame.

Have a new 8 gig memory. Shows full before all pictures load, should have loads of room?

I would format it using your computer, then try loading in your photos again.

In Window, go to your file explorer, right click on the drive and click Format.

It's ok to do a 'quick format'.

This will delete everything on the drive.
Now try loading on your photos, and see if that made a difference.

I cannot put more than a few pictures on my jump drive to load into my digital picture frame. Also, I am unable to use my 4 gig jump drive on the picture frame; only one with small memory capabilities for...

The older memory frames could only read a few MEGS of memory sticks, not Gig. That could be a problem, these were made cheap so the latest and greatest parts were not used. Plus newer cameras are 4 mb per image rather then the 600K of older cellphones/cameras. That may be a problem too.
You can reduce the SIZE of the image to 800x600 rather then the 3K or 4K many cameras now take. There is a free program called PhotoFiltre (French company) that is very easy to use, free (no spyware) and only a few megs in size.
Install program, go to FILE OPEN, get image on stick, choose IMAGE - SIZE and erase the width, type in 800 click OK and it will adjust the height automatically. Then choose SAVE. Your file will be smaller but you will not notice it on an 8" screen. Do this with the rest, you will then have lots of room for more. WARNING.. do this with COPIES as you cannot "re-enlarge" them ! ! And as I have said since the 90's, alwasy have 2 backup copies in separate places. Those external drive are cheap insurance.

I have bought the philips 10.4 inch digital photo frame and im trying to put pictures on it and store them in the internal memory. When i put my card in it starts to install them but then says not enough...

Tough the picture frame states 1000 photos, it really depends on the size of the picture. To resolve this purchase a 2 or 4 gb memory card and download your pictures onto the card. You can insert the card in the slot of the picture frame and then connect to your computer and download your pics from your computer directly onto the memory card.

I have a 2G SanDisk and I can only put 177 photos on it before it tells me there's no more room on it. However, it shows 1.7 gigs free. Help!!!

If your using the highest quality photo settings you can only take limited amount of pictures. The higher the quality the less pictures you can take. Try adjusting the camera settings to a lower setting to see if it allows for more pictures to be taken.

I have a Canon HG10 Video Camcorder, however I can't figure out how to transfer the actual video files to the computer to be edited by programs. It is a hard drive camcorder meaning that all the...

hi there
your camcorder records in AVCHD format which is a bit specialised at the moment, so your going to need special software to edit it.
you can get sony vegas movie studio 8 from amazon for about £30 ish and that will do the job nicely.

be warned .............. you will need a large hard drive (100 gig ish) as it takes a large amount of room to work, also a 3 gig cpu and a mid to high end video card.

hope this helps

How many photos can be stored on a digital photo frame?

Hi,
I generally depends upon the size of the picture that you are storing and the memory card that in the digital frame.
eg 128 MB photo frame ,would store close to 10 pictures at 8 megapixel resolution

Camera stops recording video

When recording movies in the SHQ image quality mode, I am restricted to 15 seconds of recording time per movie. Why?
In SHQ mode, the FE-230 records movies with VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels) and a frame rate of 30 frames per second. Recording this much data, this quickly, requires a large amount of camera memory and a very quick write time.
Olympus’ Type M+ and Type H xD-Picture Card media are high-speed cards and are able to process this volume of information with no loss in quality. Other commercially available media, including Type M and Standard type xD-Picture Card media, are not able to do so. For this reason, this model limits movie recording in SHQ mode to 15 seconds when using media other than Type M+ or Type H cards. The 15-second restriction guarantees that the camera will be able to process the data properly and produce a smooth, error-free movie during playback.
Keep in mind that there is no restriction on movie recording length, other than the capacity of the storage media, when recording in the HQ (320 x 240 pixels) mode.

I'm not sure if you are recording in SHQ or not. Try switching to HQ (press menu, then select image quality). It solved the problem for me. Btw I got the solution of the Olympus FAQ page on their website.
