I want to transfer photos from my imac (usb) to an sd card reader digital photo frame ...help ?

First...make sure the format of the photos is
compatible with the frame...JPG would be the best
choice.

I'm guessing the frame has an SD memory card?

Do you have an internal or external media reader?

If_Yes_try the following steps......

Insert the SD Card in your media reader and go to...
Start / Computer.

The media reader should be recognized as one or
more Removable Disks and each will have a drive
letter.

Example:
Removable Disk (F:)
Removable Disk (G:)
Removable Disk (H:)

Left click each Removable Disk until you reveal the
Root Directory of the SD Card.

(If not....the frame (connected by USB) may be listed
as a Removable Disk)

OK...now that you know the drive letter...if you right
click a selected group of photos or a complete folder
you should be able to choose...Send to / Removable
Disk (?:)...this should copy the photos to the SD Card.

Be sure the photos are in one or more folders because
the number of photos you can copy to the root directory
will be very limited. And you will receive the following error:

"Cannot copy XXXX: The directory or file cannot be created"

If the "camera chip" you refer to is a removable SD Memory Card you need to put that into a SD Card Slot on your computer or use an USB Card Reader device. The computer will recognize the SD Card as a Disk Drive and you can use Windows Explorer to transfer the picture files to it.

try searching the ZDnet asia under digital photo software for mac OSX(whatever version you use)

The Kodak S510 does not have a built-in internal memory. You can hook it up on your computer using a USB cable with a USB OTG connector and copy the pictures from your computer to the inserted memory card or a USB flash drive in the frame.

Also, make sure that your photos are in JPEG format.

either transfer to a usb pen or a standard digital card and then insert in photo frame good luck

You can change out your pictures by having an XD or SD Memory cards if you have a card reader for your computer plug in the memory card put the photos on to it that u want on ur pic frame and plug it in to the xd/sd card slot on the left hand side of the photo frame and there u go. If you want ur pics off the internal memory u can transfer them from the frame to the card via the options button or menu button that is.

The Best thing you could do is buy an SD Card reader, the SD card plugs into the card and the card (via USB) plugs directly into the computer.

The photos then come up as a USB drive.
