Olympus Evolt E510 Digital Camera Logo

I connected my camera ( olympus e 510) to my computer, wanted to get my photoes from my memory card and on my Ipod. I didnt save my pictures on my computer, just wanted to open my camera on the computer and then copy to pics to my ipod. I choose "storage" - wich ive done before without any problems. Computer said I had to restart computer in order to proceed. I chose to just wait and finnish up with the pics some other time, couldnt turn off the comp at that time. So now it says "XD - Write protect". I dont know what to do and I dont know why it says that ther are no pictures on the memory card????? Will the pics show up again after I "write protect" (wich I dont know what is)..? Bekka Presently I'm having the problem with the xD 2gig memory card shown on the Olympus Stylus 725 SW camera screen ' xD WRITE PROTECT'. Corrective action followed and carried out in the operation manual, inside 'Properties - Attributes' to cancel the 'read only' setting but same error message occured. Any solutions?

Hi photobug,

I've had some experience with a Stylus 710 (/w XD M & H cards) and an E-Volt-510.(XD and CF). Give us some more info like:
-what kind of ipod (generation/size), size (resolution) of you photos you want to transfer,
-type of computer (mac, windows), what operating system (Tiger/Leopard, 98, 00, XP, Vista),
-the method you are copying the photos (Olympus Master, Studio, Explorer, iTunes, etc.), &
-what are you intensions of copying the files to the ipod (display and view only on the ipod [ipod resolution], backup storage medium [original files], or just to clean up you XD card [original files], or temporary transfer medium to photo kiosk [print later]?

Answer these questions and I may offer some recommendations that worked for me.

My Olympus c-740 tells me there are no photos, although the memory is full. It says it is full in the camera and in the computer. I need the photos, no the memory. Thanks!
There is memory built into the camera and additional memory card! Depends how the camera is set to save the photos either to the smaller built in memory or the larger memory card!

What is the best free program to recover deleted pictures from Olympus FE-25 camera?
First of all, do not save any new file to camera's memory card.

Take out memory card, and connect it to computer using a card reader. You should see memory card shown as a drive letter (like H:) in Windows Explorer.
You can then recover photos from camera by downloading this photo recovery software
http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Back-Up-and-Recovery/Asoftech-Photo-Recovery.shtml
Install and open the photo recovery software, select the memory card, and click 'Start' button.

Formatting won't make it any easier for any recovery program to find the photos, so I definitely wouldn't do it, but leave the card as it is until you've successfully recovered them. In my opinion, the best program to use is called PhotoRec and you can find it here. It's free, released under the GNU licence. (Be sure to save any photos you recover to your computer... not to the card itself.) If that fails, then move on to try paid programs if you wish.

After you've recovered all the photos that you're going to get, only THEN would I format the card (in the camera please) in order to re-use it.

How do i install software to upload photos from my olympus c-4000 camera
One way to transfer photos from your Olympus c-4000 camera to your computer without installing any software is to remove the memory card from the camera and plug it into a card reader on your computer. The pictures on your camera will be shown in windows explorer as a removable storage device.

If you don't have a card reader connected or built-in to your computer for your memory card type, then try connecting your camera with the usb cable, and your pictures will show up in windows explorer as a removable storage device.

For more step-by-step instructions, your user's manual is available here:
