Nikon D70-pix on camera, can't upload to PC

Hi,
I just took a bunch of pictures at the PBR tonight and they show great on the camera, but when I go to upload them, I'm getting nowhere. First I used my SanDisk card reader and it couldn't read anything. I used an explorer window to look at what's on the card and there are two files DCIM and DCIO--everything I took tonight seems to be in DCIO, but when I click on that folder, I get an error message saying the file is unreadable and may be corrupted. The other folder works fine. As I said, the camera is able to read the file, just not my PC. Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem so I don't lose these pictures that mean a lot to me???

Did the camera come with software? If so you may need to reload it. Maybe your reader is bad....etc. I wouldn't panic it sounds like a software issue.

My nikon d70 will not regonize the sd card and gives a format signal

The D70 uses CF (compact flash) cards - I hope you are simply misnaming the CF card. But, if you did use an SD card, it would explain how you could have bent a pin.

I understand that Nikon is moving away from CF cards because of the 'bent pin issue' as well as the limited capacity of the CF card.

So, first I would try a CF card (any size) in the reader. If it still doesn't work, then I think you might check with a camera repair shop. If it is a bent pin, they can fix or replace the card reader. Note that the D70 body can be replaced with an EX rated used body for under $90 at https://www.keh.com/shop/nikon-d70-6-1-megapixel-digital-slr-camera-body-only-9782.html

Thus, I wouldn't pay $100 to have the reader fixed unless there are extenuating circumstances. Good luck.

How do I upload from Fuji FinePix software to facebook

What model of camera is it? If its a SLR like the one pictured, you might have shot the pictures in RAW format. You will need to convert them to a JPEG to upload to Facespace.

In most photo management programs you should have the ability to choose where you put the images when you connect the card for download to your PC. You should be able to right click on an image and there might be a 'Show me Location on Computer' option. This will tell you were it is located in your file structure.

D70 USB setting issue

Users of Windows 98SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000 and Mac OS 9.x may experience problems trying to download images from the Nikon D70 using Nikon View. Initial shipments of the D70 have the USB option in the "Set up" menu set to PTP - Picture Transfer Protocol. PTP is only compatible for downloading images with Windows XP and Mac OS X. To solve this issue please set the USB menu option to Mass Storage and then connect the camera to the computer. The D70's card will then mount like a removable disk and Nikon View will be able to transfer images
