Picasa 3 Problem.
"Destination drive?" Not sure, since I'm not sure what that is. When I originally put in the SD card a box came up asking if I wanted Picasa as default whenever I put an SD card in the laptop slot. I checked yes, and now as soon as I put the card in it goes right to Picasa and the problem I describe...

How do you store all these memory cards ?
I agree with John, although it will be several (if not tens) of years and I believe that SanDisk are suggesting 100 years on some of their newer cards. Why not make a single CD/DVD of each one too - then you will have a back up.

How do you store all these memory cards ?
The good thing about DVD-RAM is that you can go back and change it anytime, so if you have say originals plus notes or modified files, you can change them. I've never tried editing photos on a disk, but it should be possible I've done it with videos transfered off my HD Panasonic (TV) recorder. ...

How do you store all these memory cards ?
Flash needs no power to maintain the data, brilliant technology. I would love to back up all my photos on an SSD but that would cost a lot.

How do you store all these memory cards ?
I would treat any claims regarding storage life with suspicion. When CD's first came out they were claiming over 100 years storage. The warning in the Toshiba manual is to back up the data on the card regularly. shim

Compatability of SDHC Cards
...they have a single reader for SDHC Dane-Elect USB MICRO (SDHC)READER/WRITER FOR £3.49 Delivered... That's for Micro SD, which is much smaller than an SD card. is the 15-1 reader that Brian mentioned, as far as I know it would just transfer at the rate your computer port was capable of, so if...

Compatability of SDHC Cards
If you check with Microsoft, you can download a patch that will allow it to read SDHC cards. I've done it on my old computer so I can use it as a back-up.

Compatability of SDHC Cards
Hi, Danny the 38th, I picked up an Akasa multi-card reader from PC World (because I needed it in a hurry) for about £14. It fits in the front of the PC in a 3.5in drive slot and has an inbuilt USB socket, which was all I really wanted but wasn't available at the store on its own. It handles SDHC ...

Compatability of SDHC Cards
I think the reader itself has to be SDHC compatible as well. There are firmware updates for some readers to make them SDHC compatible. But try the Microsoft thing first anyway. Make sure you completely back up your system beforehand in case anything gets messed up. Failing all that, an intern...

SD & SDHC maintenance
I emailed SanDisk earlier today about refreshing data on a SD or SDHC card and their response was: ... we recommend that you format the card once in a while. Please be aware that formatting is a normal and necessary method of drive maintenance and repair, and simply NOT formatting periodically ...

SD & SDHC maintenance
:PAnother who re-formats every time the card goes back into the camera, do know that you can delete but did not think it mattered - does it - am I hastening my cards to the grave. Never had one fail on me yet but there is always a first time and it will always be the worse possible moment.

SD & SDHC maintenance
You've got it right Oggy. The file system is the same as a DOS hard drive and we don't reformat them. They do have a bit of junk in the FAT's but that just gets overwritten as needed. 3543 files being written and deleted is nothing for a FAT 32 drive. The format the camera does is probably just a...

Converting RAW to JPEG in Silkypix
I recently installed the full trial version of Silkypix and last night I attempted to convert a RAW image into JPEG and the menu gave 3 options. I've already got the ebook for Silkypix but can someone explain in more simple terms the differences between the three JPEG options and which is the bet...

backing up data from Elements 7
I am using Elements7 and ever so often, when prompted, I do an incremental back up to DVD. When I check the DVD'd to see they have copied I notice all my images are there but all as single images i.e not in folders anymore. Can someone tell me if this is how it always backs up or can I alter thing...

backing up data from Elements 7
It also backs up a directory, so any photos with a tag or in a collection ill be re-created as such if you need to restore your photos. You could just copy all your folders as well. I use an external hard disc to keep all my photos rather than the computer itself. When I back-up I use another ext...

backing up data from Elements 7
That sounds easy enough, thanks John. Can I just ask would it be OK to save it it My Pictures folder? Or should I create a special folder? Now when I back up my images will it save them all twice? See I am not really sure what this catalouge is/does? What am I gaining by doing this? Again, m...
