CHAPTER 10 Managing Your Camera Card Media
Copying photos and videos from your camera card
To extend your battery life, connect your device to a power source when copying
media from your camera card.
You can copy your photos and videos to your computer or your device. When you use Copy to
Device, the program checks for files with the same file name and content. If found, those files are
not copied. Also, files with the same file name but different contents are automatically renamed
before copying onto the device.
Albums are subfolders located only in the Photos & Videos special folder on the hard drive and in
the DCIM special folder on an expansion card. Only first level subfolders in these special folders
are recognized as albums.
When you copy your media from your camera card using Camera Companion, the media is copied
to the DCIM folder on the hard drive. Since this is not a special folder, no albums can be created in
the folder. To access the media, you need to browse to the subfolders where the pictures are
located. If you want to add media from the DCIM folder to an album, you must use Files to copy
the media to a subfolder in the Photos & Videos special folder.
