The only way I can do it is to stick the camera card into the pc, save the pics into a folder and take it from there. It would be much easier if I could just use the usb cable provided but nothing happens when I do that. I guess I need to download some software. The trouble with all this new technology is that nothing comes with user manuals anymore, you have to look for it on line yourself.

depending on the phone, just plug it into a usb port and as the "autoplay" box pops up just click import pictures and videos and it will automatically put them in you pc's picture folder, otherwise open up the filefolder in your phone and copy them manually I.E.

I haven't tried it yet. The wife is out and has it with her. I'm not sure it will though because I'm pretty sure she said nothing at all showed up on either the phone or pc when she plugged the usb in. And if anyone can......she can.

if nothing pops up just right click the phone in the drive menu then click import... also make sure the phone is on (some people actually forget to do that)

Thanks mate  :2thumbs: I'll see if she can sort it out when she gets home.
Did I mention it's a Samsung Galaxy Ace?  I mean, I've got the (micro) SD card but it's a nuisance as I have to first place it in the adaptor to be able to stick it into the pc.

oh you can do the old school method of shrinking, once they are on your pc, just open them in microsoft paint or something and shrink them to roughly 600 by 600 pixals that should keep it below the 200kb limit

The 77 cordoba was 400 p code car. Had factory sunroof, tach,  floor shift with the leather buckets, crown roof, pw, am fm 8track. Jade green. I just finished painting it and put new crager ss wheels on her. The guy asked me if i was intrested in tradeing it for his charger which id never turn down! Its a project but runs and is pretty solid! I think it was fair trade, hes was happy and thats all matters to me. I will try get pics up today

Ok, I plugged my smart phone into the pc using the usb cable and went into the drive menu but the phone doesn't show up. Just the hard disk drive and the devices with removable storage show up. Nothing else. (phone is switched on)

did it give you any sort of indication that something was plugged in, typically you will hear a sound when you plug something into a usb port  :shruggy:

youre supposed to get it once, if its happening multiple times your port has a loose connection, try another one :scratchchin: or atleast try wiggling it around or holding it firmly in place  :shruggy:

Don't have internet on mine. It's only for emergency phone calls. I use the sd card to import them to my pc. But I'm just trying to figure out why using the usb cable doesn't work.
Magnam says he's having the same problem.
