I never use the stupid docks and stuff like that I find them as useless as you have just described. I just take out the memory card and place it into a memory card reader and then it acts like those usb dives showing up as another drive and you can get your pictures off much faster and easier.
hope this helps
Cheers

Download Hot men onto apple I pad

Sorry for my silly question but what is hot men? Is it a song you want?

If the song is already on your computer and you want to transfer it to your iPod, you can always count on iTunes.

The next guidance will show you how to transfer music from computer to iPod with iTunes.
  1. Connect your iPod to PC via matched USB cable. Then click the iPod icon on the left corner of the interface. To manage your media files manually, you'd better go to "Options" under "Summary" tab, cancel "Automatically sync when this iPod is connected" and check "Manually manage music and videos". Don't forget to click "Apply" when it's done.
  2. Import music into iTunes library from computer by clicking "File" and then "Add File to Library". Once transferred successfully, you can select the music icon on top to see all the songs.
  3. Click "Music" under "Settings" tab. Choose "Sync Music". You can either sync entire music library or selected playlists as you like. Then click "Sync" button at the bottom to transfer music from computer to iPod.
If you don't want to use iTunes, please take a look at this guide for an alternative method.

Kodak z710 I cannot transfer photos onto my computer.

It may be time to buy a card reader for your computer. You can get one at a department or electronics store for not much more than a cup of coffee.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo management program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).

Loading pictures to a computer

Denise - you didn't provide *any* details so the help I can provide may be rather limited, but here goes:

You can transfer pictures to a computer a couple of different ways. The first method requires that you install any software that came with the camera on your computer and reboot. Next, connect the camera (powered off) to the computer with the included cable - which is almost always a USB type on one end and one that fits into your camera on the other. The camera will need to have working batteries, so be sure that they're good. Turn the camera on and the camera software should automatically detect the camera and start up. You should be able to transfer, possibly edit and save your pictures on the computer. If you didn't receive software with your computer, skip the software installation step above - but do the rest. Double-click the Computer icon (to show you the hard drive and DVD/CD icons) and look for a new drive. The new drive represents the camera memory. You can open the drive and work with the picture files just like they were files on a hard drive. Move, edit, copy, delete or save them as you see fit. The drawback to this method is that transfers from you camera are often slow and of course you need batteries. A second method is not limited by these - but does cost money. Keep reading.

The second method requires the use of a "card reader"
11_27_2011_1_38_35_pm.jpg
An external USB multi-format card reader.

Card readers are powered by and transfer files via the computer's USB port. They run at significantly faster speed than the camera and can be purchased for as little as $10. To use them, install software included with the reader (if any) and reboot. Connect the reader to the computer's USB port. Remove the memory card from the camera and insert it into the appropriate slot in the card reader. A message stating that a new device has been found and software is being installed will appear on the monitor. Double click the computer icon and look for a new drive icon. Double click the new drive to show the image icons on the memory card. Move, edit, copy, delete or save them as you see fit. When done click the "Safely Remove USB" icon in the System Tray and then click Remove. If you don't see this - simply remove the reader from the USB port or the memory card from the reader slot and you will be shown how to do it properly the next time.

Be sure to FORMAT the memory card after you insert it into the camera before shooting new pictures. Formatting the card on your computer is not the same - and should be done in the camera. Formatting removes ALL data from the memory card, so if you wish to leave images on the card to show others on the camera - do not format. As mentioned above, the format should be done before taking new pictures.

Not getting date on downloaded pictures

The date and time (and a lot of other information) is always stored with the picture file in what's called the EXIF data. By default this is not shown on top of the image since neither the camera nor any photo viewing program knows which portion of your photograph is unimportant and can be obscured by this data.

Any photo editing program should be able to show you this data, probably in a separate window. Most photo printing software likewise can print this data, either on top of the picture or in the margins or on the back. Please refer to the documentation for whatever program(s) you're using.

I need to download music and there is no file for

Hello,

Using XP, the player should be detected through the USB port of the computer as a removable disk [also called MSC device].
note:
Before disconnecting the player, always go through the icon "Safely remove hardware" in the right corner below of the computer screen, to keep the player free from data loss or data faillure.

----------
First prepare the player before connection / check normal working of the player:
0. Player NOT connected to the computer
1. Switch the player ON using the >| button
2. Check the HOLD icon in the display: padlock should be OFF
3. When the padlock shows up, unlock the player: slide the HOLD switch to the left: padlock should not show in the display now.
4. Switch the player OFF, holding the >| for about 3 seconds.

When the player should not behave normal, perform a RESET.
0. Disconnect the player if connected to a computer.
1. Remove the battery from the player and leave it out for 10 seconds.
2. Replace the battery.
3. Power ON the player with the >| button and see if the player works normally.
4. Switch OFF the player, holding the >| button for 3 seconds.
----------

How to check the detection of the MSC device on your computer:
0. Player Normal Functioning, NOT connected, NOT locked and switched OFF.
1. Explore 'My Computer': click start in the left corner below of the computer screen and select 'My Computer'.
2. Connect the MP300 to a USB port; detection may take some time.
3. Look on the computer screen if a new removable disk shows up in the explorer overview, coming up with a new drive letter.
4. Now you should be able to put music onto the player, showing up as a removable disk with the new drive letter: use 'copy and paste' or 'drag and drop' method for music transfers.
note:
Before disconnecting the player, always go through the icon "Safely remove hardware" in the right corner below of the computer screen, to keep the player free from data loss or data faillure.

When no new drive letter shows up, try another USB port.
Connect directly to the computer, not through a hub.
If you need more help, tell me at what point connecting or transferring fails in this thread.

There's also a software program called Coby Media Manager that can be used for detection or transfers. Coby Media Manager is based on MTP connection mode.
Need help for this ? Write your comment in this thread.

How to download music from my computer to ipod

Assuming you have iTunes installed....

Connect iPod, when iTunes opens, you can go to File ---> Add File to Library (or press Ctrl+O), find the music file on your harddrive, highlight, and click ok. You can then manage the id3 tags (Genre, Artist, etc) by right-clicking on the song, and selecting "Get Info"

Hope this helps!

Fisher price kid tough camera shows red-yellow-green light icon with an arrow on the red. Also the flash icon (lightning bolt) is showing in the bottom left of the screen. Emptied memory and changed...

We had the exact same problem. We transferred the photos off of the camera and then it went away. So possibly it is a memory full error or a card read error. I am not sure but the transfer solved the issue.
