Could someone help with a picture question?

[cdolan22]

I want to have all of the pictures that I take on my DI to go right to the SD card that I have rather than going to the phone. I checked my settings within the camera and they have always had CARD as the storage option, yet none of my pictures that I have taken on the phone are showing up in the folder for my SD card. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I would rather fix it now rather than have to transfer all the files with my computer and all that crap later. Thank you!

maybe try to set it back to phone and then card again? that's kind of odd...

Yeah it is really weird. I switched it to phone storage, took a picture, saved it, and it did not affect the # of pictures in my phone storage folder either. I then swapped back to SD card storage and took another picture and it did not affect the # in my SD card folder.... They seem to only be going to the Camera Shots folder. Any help would be great.

have you tried looking at where the actual files are with something like astro?

the camera shots folder is not a real folder, but rather a place to see any picture taken with the camera.

all my pictures if using the photos app will show in camera shots, but there are some from the internal memory and some from my sd.

I just tried to change mine from phone storage to the sdcard and it saved them to the sdcard. I checked both phone storage and sdcard from my computer and they both have a camera file located in DCIM folder but when I switched to save to the sdcard the picture was saved to DCIM>100MEDIA which was a new folder that the phone created. When I checked on the phone using the photo app the picture didn't show up in camera shots but was in the all photo file.

It was driving me nuts that the pictures would save to the camera file set up on the sdcard so here is what I tried and it worked for me. First I moved the camera file from the phone storage to my desk top then deleted the 100MEDIA file then tried to take another picture and it saved to the camera file on the sdcard as it should. For some reason when I had a camera file on both the sdcard and phone storage it wouldn't save to the camera file (on sdcard) but once I removed that file from the phone storage everything worked.
