loading pictures

Ok is there a different file for the droid or something. I loaded pics off my computer on the memory card and the droid will not show them. My blackberry would show anything on it that I loaded. Whats the deal?

do you have them loaded in a folder named pictures on the card or just loaded on the card?

 

[jjenson80]

also when I plug the droid into my usb on my laptop it doesn't show anything for a memory card. Is there a mass storage option or something. Please help, I might have to return this in the next couple of days if I can't view old pics. Also is there a way to get enterprise type mail on this beast. I am in love with the phone but it just doesn't seem to do what I want it to do.

when you plug in the droid into your computer, on the droid in the notification panel it will have something about the card (i can't remember the wording) click that, and then click mount and the card will show up on your computer.

i've put pictures in various folders and they've all showed up

yeah I had them in a file called pictures, then I tried just putting the photos on the card. I will try and do the thing with the mount card thing. thanks for such a fast response.

Ok it must be this mount, unmount thing I'm not getting. My laptop doesn't seem to recognize the phone or something. When I load just the memory card into the computer I can see the pics I have taken with the phone. Then I add pics where the phone pics are and I still can't see them. Can someone post a step-by-step on this mount, unmount memory card thing please.

1. Plug the phone into your USB drive with the wire that came with your phone.
2. See the notification area on the top of the Droid screen? There should be a USB icon there now. Drag the notification bar out and click on "USB Connected" (Select to copy files to/from your computer)
3. Click on "Mount."
4. It should now show up as a drive on your computer.
5. Make a folder called "Pictures" anywhere on the Droid and move all your pictures into there.

To mount your droid click on the notifications bar and then click on the usb notification and then mount.
