How do I download my pics to floopy disc


I am having problems downloading my pictures onto floopy disc so they can be shown on another computer. I have only started using my camera and I took pictures at a youth activity and I want to download them on a floopy disc so I can take them to church and show them on the computer there. Please help me if you can. Also I just remembered when I tried to get the pictures onto my computer it kept flashing after loading a few pictures something about that drive and to hit any key to continue. Then it would download a few more and do the same thing again. All this computer and digital cameras are new to me. I have only had both the computer and camera recently. Please help in any way you can.

  Hi Paula,

Without a specific error message, it's hard to guess what is wrong here. It sounds to me as though the disk is full every few photos, and when you hit okay on the error message, it is erasing other pictures to make room for the new ones - hence you are left with very few photos by the end of it.

My recommendation is that you copy all the files to your hard disk first, then move them over to floppy one by one. You may end up spanning many disks.

Oh, and as a side note, let me affirm you for the youth work you are doing with the local church. It's great to see people out there serving our future.

Regards,

  Would you please explain to me how to download them to the hard drive and then explain to me how to download them from my hard drive to the floopy. I am new to all of this and I have not been able to figure out how to do it. Thanks for all of your help and thanks for you support for my work with the youth. I am anxious to learn how to do the pictures because we have a big weekend coming up with our youth. We have about seventy five students signed up for our Discipleship Now Weekend Retreat. I want to be able to show the pictures from the weekend to our church when we have the service on Sunday morning to share about what God did over the weekend. Thanks Paula
