Transfer photos from an SD card to your computer.
When your digital camera displays a "Card Full" warning message, you have two options: replace the Secure Digital (SD) card with a new card or transfer the images from the card to your computer. If you don't have a second card and you are near your computer, you can transfer the images in just a few minutes, freeing up the SD card to capture more memories. Pictures can be transferred from the card in three ways. You can use a USB cable, an external card reader or the memory card slot on your computer.
Instructions
USB Cable Supplied with Camera
1. Turn off your digital camera.
2. Plug the slender, rectangular USB end of the data cable into an open USB port on your computer.
3. Plug the smaller end of the USB cable into the side of the camera in the USB hole.
4. Turn on the digital camera.
5. Wait for the computer to auto-recognize the new device. Follow the on-screen prompts to transfer your photos or click on the icon that represents your camera.
6. Press "Ctrl + A" to select all of the photos. Then, right-click your mouse and choose "Copy." Select the location where you want to store the photos. Right-click on that folder and choose "Paste."
External Card Reader or Memory Card Slot
7. Turn off the digital camera. Access the camera's memory card slot by pushing the "Eject" button or sliding the protective door to the side.
8. Press lightly on the edge of the SD card until it pops back and ejects from the camera.
9. Locate the notched corner of the SD card. Insert the card into the external card reader or memory card slot on the computer as indicated by the diagram on the outside of the card-reader. Use the notch as a guide.
10. Wait for the computer to auto-recognize the SD card. Follow the on-screen prompts to transfer your photos from the card or click on the icon that represents your SD card.
