Images imported via card reader from Eye-Fi chip are garbled

Laptop is g580 20157, factory installed windows 8
Eye-Fi Pro x2 8 GB WiFi
When using the Eye-Fi via the sd media reader, imported images are garbled. Some thumbnails look ok, others not. All images when previewed are bad.
When using the Eye-Fi sd to usb converter, images import just fine. When using usb cable to import from camera, images import just fine. When using a non-Eye-Fi sd chip, images import just fine.

Hi JayWilson,
Thanks for posting and welcome to the Lenovo Community,
I’d like to ask you to share with us the status of using the wireless connection is it stable with you and working fine?
And I’d like to advise you to try to contact the service provider for your Eye-Fi card as i need to share with you the
requirements for the Eye-fi card that you have:
Computer with Windows 7/XP (SP3)/Vista or Mac OSX 10.5+ (Intel only) and 100MB of free space.
And as I understand from your post your machine came with windows 8.
Hope the information helps. Let us know.
Regards
Soha

Image importing via card reader...

Hello all,
When importing images via a card reader, I am no longer given the option to delete images on my card when Aperture is finished downloading? Is there some kind of option or preference I have inadvertenly clicked on or off? I really like my card empty upon completion of downloading.
Thanks.
Brian

next time you have the import screen open, look for the tick box in the top right of the screen and make sure its checked.

Latest problem - can't import using card-reader

In Bridge>File>Get Photos from Camera.....
App recognises there is card reader and card and amount of photos and then when asked to "get Photos", I get this message:-
"Adobe Bridge CS3 cannot obtain files from this device. Please ensure that the device is connected properly, or that the battery is charged, and try again."
What does this mean? - I am using a card reader, there are no batteries! There is never any problem when I import using Capture One Pro or iPhoto or LightRoom or Aperture with this method, so why now?
Any thoughts?
Cheers
Frances

First check if you have the latest version for Bridge CS3 (it should be 2.1.1.9)
Then restart Bridge holding down option key to refresh the preferences. Then set the preferences again to your wishes and try again.
You should prefer a card reader for downloading images instead of directly from the camera. there are several threads with the reason why this is a better method.
Photodownloader can do this job, don't forget to explore the advanced settings :-)

Cannot eject usb camera card reader from iphoto

I have a card from my Nikon camera plugged into a USB card reader. The photos import into iPhoto just fine. When I try to eject the card readers using the eject icon in iPhoto or drag it to the trash in iPhoto or irhgt click the icon on the desktop and try to eject or use Finder, the card reader icon disappears for a second, then iPhoto downloads its photos again. There is never enough time to safely remove the card reader.
Help!!!

I tried that once and the memory card was damaged - couldn't use it again. Luckily my photos had already been imported.
Thanks.

Basic question about accessing card reader from browser

Hi,
I am very new to card technology. I have a very basic and general question not directly related to java cards.
I need to write a web application that allows the user to read a card with a card reader.
For that I maybe need to write an applet that has to access a native DLL and call methods
to get the card ID. I already have that DLL (written in Delphi) that reads multi-technology cards.
Then pass that ID to the application server to retrieve complete information
about the card holder and display them on the user browser.
Please could someone guide me on useful resources for that kind of development, for example
already existing developments, personal experience, design solutions ?
Thanks.
Adriano

Hi Joseph,
One thing I forgot to tell is that I work with contactless cards and readers.
Contactless cards use radio frequency. Despite this fact, the problem stays the same. I already have a Delphi DLL that reads contactless cards.
What I need is a way to retrieve card holder information from a client browser. The card contains a unique ID. My idea is to use an applet that reads that ID on the client-side and then calls a servlet on the server-side to retrieve holder information associated with that ID, i.e. first and last names, and finally displays them on the client browser.
So the card contains only the unique ID, a database on the server-side contains all other related data.
Technically the applet has to call the DLL via JNI.
Do you think that using an applet that way is a good solution, do you see simpler solutions, is there security issues ?
Thanks.

Can't import SD card photos from iPad to Mac

So I used the camera connection kit to move photos from an SD card to my iPad, I now need these phtots off my iPad however when I go to iPhoto to import all the pictures on my iPad it informs me that there's a little under 2000 pictures on my iPad.
I know for a fact that there is more than that, in the About section on the iPad it tells me that I have a little over 6000 photos.
On a Windows machine the folders in the DCIM folder are names as follows "100APPLE" "100IMPRT", there is one folder named "***APPLE" and 101 through 148 of the "***IMPRT" folders.
Does anyone know where my pictures have gone? and how I can get them to my iMac from my iPad?
Michael

Ok, now that changes things a bit.
I've heard that the photo transfer app works well.
Picassa should work too.

File copy to SD Card via Card Reader hangs

I have a 2gb SD card and Iogear sd card reader. Whenever I try to copy more than a few files to it, the Finder hangs. I am copying mp3 files to use in an mp3 player that accepts sd cards. I have tried copying all folders at once (30 folders, 1.8gig), one at a time, all files but no folders, and other variations. It will copy fine to a point, and then the copy hangs. I have mounted the device in VPC and performed the same copy and everything works fine.
I am using a Powermac G5, dual 2gig, using the front USB 2.0 port and the card reader is the only device connected.
Thanks for your help. Brad

I updated to the latest release, 10.4.6, and still have the problem. It also happens with a 1gb SD card. I was successful copying one folder at a time to the 1gb drive. However, I also have a 1bg USB thumb drive and have no trouble copying several folders at once.
Any suggestions?

I put my card reader in, but the pictures are not showing up. Have adobe photoshop elements 12. Is there something I'm missing to do.

.

Hi,
We need more information to be able to help you.
Which operating system are you running on?
When you say "not showing up", do you mean they are not being automatically imported into the organizer? Have you tried using Import/Get from camera or card reader?
Are these pictures in raw format - if so from which camera (Make & Model)?
Do you see any indication in the thumbnail area - like a question mark?
Any error messages?

Create Camera Archive via Card Reader - Possible?

If I connect my DSLR (5D II) to the Mac Pro via USB it is not recognised when I click the Import Icon as a source to create a Camera Archive.
If I stick the CF card in a Firewire reader it does not appear as an option except when using Import under File menu option, and that imports directly as an Event.

Jeaux wrote:
I can understand using FCPX to archive tape footage, but for card contents I don't see the point. Create an archive file on a drive and drag a copy of your card there...
Yes, you could do it manually (what I generally do for photos) but for consistency I'd like to make archives when I've taken video footage - I'm only a hobbyist but often carry both my Sony HC3 camcorder and 5D II DSLR - I'll have video from both and it would be quite clumsy to have an archive of the tape material but a 'manually created' folder of the DSLR stuff.
Not essential to have this, but would certainly be nice.

Pages Update = 13,000+ Images Imported Via iPhoto - What Gives?

Hi, I just did a Pages software update (prompted) and my iPhoto then launched and proceeded to import over 13,000 images. They look like Pages images (templates and such). What's up? Thanks!

Hard to say - best guess is that somehow the pages update file got dropped onto iPhoto and it imported everything it could - but not being there is only a wild guess
Best solution is to restore your iPhoto library backup from just before this occured

In lightroom 5 I have been importing images via a card reader. Now you can see the images on the computer but when I try to import it says that it cannot read the card any ideas how to solve?

I have been importing images via card reader with no problem. Now all of a sudden I can see the images on the screen but when I try to import the computer says that it can not read them and quotes numbers of the images. Any idea how to solve?

Please give us the exact error message.
Please state your operating system.
Please state the exact version of Lightroom you are using.
Please give us any other relevant details.
What does this mean: "Now all of a sudden I can see the images on the screen"? Are you looking in Lightroom or your operating system or the camera screen? Where?

I have a Panasonic FZ38 HD camera. I can load and view my hd movies onto iMovie with no problems via my camera or a card reader. When I try to copy my hd videos from my old Windows pc to my new iMac, the picture speed has doubled but the sound is normal.

I have a Panasonic DMC-FZ38 HD camera and have lots of hd movie clips stored on my old Windows Pc using Photofun software supplied by Panasonic, which I want to transfer to my new Imac computer. I am able to copy my most recent movies that are still on the memory card from my camera onto Imovie and view them with no problems at all. When it comes to copying my old existing hd movies stored on my Windows Pc (and which are no longer stored on a memory card), I discover that when I view them on the Imovie, the speed has doubled but the sound is normal. In order to transfer my old movies I have copied them back onto a memory card (SDHC - the same card as previously used) and then put the card back into my camera and then copied them onto my Imac via the camera USB. I have also used a card reader but get the same result. If I view the same movie through my camera, or look at it on my old pc, it plays at normal speed. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening please?

have you read and watch the Tutorials..? :
http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#imovie
iM is a bit.. iffy, when it comes to the definition, what a 'camera' is. historically, only tape based machines were a movie-camera. nowadays still-cams allow movin' images too..
but, as mentioned above: the intended workflow is: material from photo cameras (even when they move) => import via iPhoto; material from video cameras (even when they don't move.. ) => iMovie
when the import is done, you'll notice in all iLife apps the 'media browser' - in iM09, on the very right, the icon with a camera on.. click it, presto, all (incl. your 'videos') your iPhoto Library at hand for usage in iMovie.

Image Capture connects to card reader but not camera

Image Capture and iPhoto do not detect new connected Canon camera. Will read card via card reader. Camera will connect to older macbook iPhoto and Image Capture but not my iMac. Image Capture in Mountain Lion has no perferences anymore. Tried Repairing Disk Permissions but no success. Any ideas?

Sorry, there is no setting on the AirPort Extreme card built-in your new iMac that can be tweaked to "force" a connection to the Netgear's "n" network.
Does your Netgear allow for different Network Names (or SSIDs) for each of its radios? If so, you can try an experiment by renaming the 5 GHz radio's Network Name, and then, specifically connect the iMac to it.
Also, since "n" can operate on either radio, it appears that your iMac is "locking" on the 2.4 GHz radio. Does your iMac have any trouble connecting to any other "n" Wi-Fis? If so, then there may be a problem with either the AirPort Extreme card or the internal antennae on the iMac ... and it would warrant a visit to your local Apple Store to have them take a look.

System hanging up on startup when Image Card reader plugged into front

My motherboard is a MSI 845PE Max2. When I plug in an image card reader into one of my front usb ports after the machine has been turned on the images are read fine no problem. Should I shut the machine down and restart it the machine hangs on the white screen displaying the MSI logo and the notice to hit the tab and other key to skip the messages. I have tried to hit any and every combination of keys but nothing happens. Even when I try to press the restart button on my machine nothing happens. I literally have to use the power switch in back of the case to get the machine to start up again and have to remove the Image card reader from the front usb port. Can anyone offer some advice on how I can fix this?

It is then obviously a compatibility issue with that particular card reader and that particular board model. As your board is long time EOL ("End-of-life") and has been replaced by two generations already there will be no further updates. What bios versions did you try already?

Importing into iPhoto 6 from Sony DSC-T1 crashes the application

Until I updated to iLife 06 I never had trouble importing photos into iPhoto from my Sony DSC-T1. Now, within seconds of clicking on the "import now" button the program crashes, and I've sent the obligitory bug report to Apple, but now the card is full and I don't know where to turn...
12 PB Mac OS X (10.4.6) iLife 06

Strange. Sorry to hear about your problems. Rather than importing via iPhoto directly from the camera, why don't you try getting the images off the card in the Finder? When you plug in the camera an icon for the memory card will appear on your desktop. Quit iPhoto if it automatically comes up. Create a folder on your desktop. Double click the memory card icon, and browse its contents until you find the image files. Drag them to the folder you created, and wait for the copy to complete. Then launch iPhoto and drag the folder of images into iPhoto.
Hopefully Apple support will be able to help you with that camera import into iPhoto. Is it on the iPhoto supported list?
