> I bought the camera kit with my ipad2. Recently I bought a PNY 8gig memory card. I first connected the memory card to my PC with a reader adapter and loaded some files and some jpg's to see what I could open and view on the ipad. Well, I then plugged it into my ipad and couldn't find anything. I looked in Photos like the manual said to do and still I could not find anything that I knew was on the memory card. Am I doing something wrong?
I just checked with the Yahoo Groups web interface, and the search function still works.
I have lost track of the number of times that one or another of us have explained how this works, pointing out that this is a CAMERA connection kit.
That is, the iPad requires that the format and folder structure of the card be that standardized one that is created on the card by formatting it in a camera, and storing images on it by taking them *with* a camera.
If you want to use it with images transferred from a computer, the best way is to put the card in a camera, format it there, take at least one picture with the camera, THEN connect the card to the computer, and put the additional images in the same place the camera put its image(s).
If further explanation is needed, ask away.
