Is plugging in the camera connector with a Scandisk do anything?

I am trying to transfer one jpeg imge to the iPad so I can email it. The USB wont work as it requires more power. The connector with the scan disk slot doesn't do anything it just sits there. I hoped something would open and tell me that i could upload a photo or tell me I am an idiot for sticking it in over and over again hoping something will happen.
Has anyone ever seen these work or does it just come in the kit and not have a purpose for the iPad. I can't find the issue addressed although there are a few posts about the Scandisk.

Penguin's suggestion should work. The camera connection kit will work to transfer photos you create/name onto your device. You just have to follow that naming protocol. SD cards are the best, but you can use USB flash drives. You just have to find the right ones that work with the device and follow the naming convention. It's been my experience that sandisk and kingston don't work well simply because of their bundled software, that tries to run and triggers the 'too much power' warning.
Failing transfering it via the CCK, you can always fall back on e-mailling it to yourself as a 'tide me over' until you get the camera connection kit figured out.

  • Camera connector with a usb media reader.

    Has anyone used the camera connector with a usb memory reader? One of the many reasons I bought the ipod was to dump photos to it from one media card while I'm shooting on another. I bought the belkin media reader but the video ipod doesn't support it. If you have been able to dump photos from a media card with using your camera please let me know what you devices you were using? I have heard that the battery drains quickly when transfering photos.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Try Soft reseting your ipod, then Plug your card reader into the Camera connector before you attach it to your iPod, then plug everything in then it might work if not, this is what i'm using to do it.
    Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 15-in-1 Media Card Reader/Writer (model number: F5U249ea) Sandisk 512mb Ultra 2 compact flash card, any card will do and the camera connector, i hook everything up, wait a few seconds then it tells me to transfer whatever amount is on the card.
    Where can i dump the photo's on doucarve??

  • Camera Connector with Nikon D2x and 5G 60gb iPod

    Has anyone had experience with the D2x (Nikon) and the camera connector on a 5G 60gb iPod?
    The camera is compatable with Mass Storage and PTP. The camera works great with iPhoto...plug it in and iPhoto opens and you click the button to download.
    Also, I see that the new iPod has a longer lasting battery. Does this help when downloading a large card.
    By the way, I called Belkin and their camera connectors are NOT compatable with the new 5G models and the guy said that there is nothing on the drawing board.
    G5 Dual 2ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.4)   3.5gb RAM; 400gb HD

    I purchased the 60gb iPod-Video (5G) and after several failed attempts I found the proceedure to upload photos on to the iPod using an Apple camera connector with my D2x. Here goes:
    First, reset the ipod (just a precaution...hold down the center button with the Menu button for 6 sec). The screen will go black with a golden apple in the center. The menu will display after a short period.
    Turn on the ipod (if it isn't already on from the above proceedure).
    Plug in the camera connector to the iPod (without the USB cable attached).
    Attach the USB cable to your camera and turn on the camera.
    Plug in the cable from the camera to the camera connector which is attached to the iPod.
    Wait 20-30 sec and it should work.
    I tested the speed in both PTP mode and Mass Storage mode. The import for both was 200mb.
    PTP = 3minutes 10 sec
    Mass Storage 1 minute 59 sec.
    The battery did go down a lot (about 1/4 after both imports), but after you detach the camera connector and go back to the main menu, it seems to go back up to about 95% full.

  • Camera Connector with SanDisk Ultra II SD Plus USB

    Hi,
    I recently got hold of this SD card with a USB connector built in, in the hope that I could connect it straight to my iPod Photo via the camera connector. I have been using the camera connector with the Belkin USB2 17-in-1 card reader, but hoped i could ditch the reader and have less to carry.
    Basically this SD/USB card does not work.. Fair enough, its not listed as compatible, but the Belkin media reader is not listed either.
    The thing that puzzles me, is that the SD card shows as a MassStorage device when connected to the powerbook via its USB connector, the same as the media reader (Apple say check this and it should work) the only other thing is the power maybe, the card says 500mA, so i check the card reader and that is 500mA also.
    So, is this something that maybe one day might work as more devices become compatible, or do i cut my losses now, and put the thing on ebay, and just get a cheaper standard SD card, and go back to lugging the media reader with me.
    Any thoughts or comments would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Keith.

    Well now you've got the card in FAT_32 having formatted it in Disk Utility I can't work out what's not working. I suggest you restart the Mac and switch off all your devices and try again. 
    It may also be worth re-formating the card using the phone or camera (if possible). I suspect the problem here is that you're trying to access a 4Gb card through a camera that may or may not support 4Gb cards. Have a look at this compatiblity list.
    It may be worth considering a card reader if this is the case. They aren't expensive and will be much quicker and easier than connecting through the camera. Unless of course it works if you connect your phone via USB using the k750i's USB Mass Storage facility.

  • D800 file compatibility:  Has anyone experienced problems with loading D800 files onto the iPad using the camer connector kit?  I have tried both RAW and JPEG using SDHC and CF cards and the iPad(3) doesnt recognise any of the files.

    Has anyone experienced problems with downloading Nikon D800 files to the iPad3 using the camer connector kit?  I have tried .RAW and JPEG (of various sizes) on both SD and CF cards, but the iPad doesn't recognise the files. 
    I have seen various forums discussing Lightroom and PSE updates that are required to process .NEF files but I can't find anything on the iPad/camera connector issue.
    I dont have any problem if I put the SD card straight into the SD slot in my iMac and Aperture will process the files fine, but I would really like to be able to download and view files on the move on the iPad.
    Any advice appreciated?
    PS - saw something that suggested the iPad had a maximum file size of 16mb for photos, not sure if this is correct, but I have tried smaller JPEG files and they still aren't recognised.

    If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be necessary to use both modes to import all media content.
    If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again.
    Note: Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge.

  • My Samsung Galaxy Camers SD Card just won't work on my iPad via the camera connector - please help!

    Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy Camera and I try to connect my Micro SDHC card via the iPad camera connector kit.
    This has worked in the past with other memory cards but this is a new one and each time I go to the import option on my photos it says "No Photo"
    I use an adapter to connect the sd card as it's micro, I have tried my other adapter to connect the camera via the lead however the accessory is not supported due to the camera needing more power!
    I have read someone else's post and they suggested to reformat the card, I have used the disc utility to format it however it's saying its FAT32. I can't seem to format my card through my camera either?!
    I'm at a loss as to what I can do and my local Apple store have stopped giving appointments to the Genius Bar so hoping someone here might help me out  
    I want to use my camera at christmas but know the picture upload is going to be a nightmare!!!
    Thanks

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Ipod camera connector with CANON 350D

    Hi everybody!
    I'm trying to connect camera connector with my photocamera but ipod continuosly tell me: "format non supported". I have set my 350D in PTP mode, as apple recommended in the compatibility list, but nothing changes.
    What can I do?
    tnx!
    Manu

    You should consider to buy a canon 20 D. it's a lot better then the 350D i you would not have those kind of problems!
    just kidding!
    wasn't suppose to work with the cf card you plug directly in your ipod? i would be much faster?

  • HT4101 My iPad is tellin me I can not use the camera connector because it uses too much power..... ***

    My iPad is tellin me I can not use the camera connector because it uses too much power..... ***

    I'm having same problems.   If I connect my blackberry it says it uses too much power.  If I take sd card out of phone and connect that way I get the same message.    The leaflet with the connector says go to Apple.com/support/iPad to find list of compatible cameras..........  I'm still trawling the site to find any such list!    Just need to know if it will work with a blackberry .....  If not I've got to take it back.    Have been advised by a friend to cut my losses get my money back and use Bump to transfer my pics.    I don't own a traditional camera because my phone has a great one.  Really don't want to have to carry a camera about with me!   They don't make it easy do they!   

  • Camera connector with 1.0 firmware?

    Ivan,

  • Camera Connector with Olympus Evolt E300 and iPod 5G 30GB

    Help! I am having a very tough time trying to get this to work.
    When I connect the camera connector to iPod and Camera it says no card found. I've tried everything I can think of.
    Now I am trying to use a USB 2.0 Card Reader by hama and again no luck. My card is a Compact Flash card.
    What can I do?
    I really need this to work while I am away in Europe.
    Has anyone else dealt with this?

    Hi,
    Sorry if some of this sounds too simple! I took a look at the camera's manual and it sure does look like the E300 should work with the iPod CC (I use one on Olympus and Canon cameras).
    Some ideas:
    Format the card and take one photo, then put the card in the card reader on a PC or Mac and check for the DCIM folder at the top level? Your one photo should be inside that (possibly in another folder).
    If that looks OK, put the card back in the camera, connect up the iPod with CC and then power up the camera - does the camera ask for "PC", "Print" or "Exit"? Selecting "PC" should fire up the iPod CC and it'll ask you if you want to import the photo.
    If this is doesn't work then let me know and I'll scratch my bald spot again!

  • Camera Connector with Cannon Camera

    Hello. I have been having problems with uploading the photos from my Powershot SD400 Elph camera on to my 30GB Video ipod. I have downloaded photos on to my ipod before from the same camera and it worked. But now it isn´t working. I have followed all of the directions off the apple website about downloading/uploading photos with the camera connector and it still doesn´t work. I was wondering if someone could tell me what I need to do to make it work again? The camera, Cannon SD400 Elph is not listed as a compatible camera, however, the camera Cannon SD400 is listed as a camera that should work with the camera connector (from ipod). I am not sure if the inclusion of the word "elph" makes a difference. I am in somewhat of hurry to get any advice. Thanks for your help!

    Ivan,

  • Has anyone ever experienced the situation where plugging in the USB connector to the charging source (high-power USB port or Apple charger) halfway, then pressing it in firmly, results in the iPad not charging?

    It's highly likely that there is a poor connection in the phone - either a pin in the dock connector or internal wiring harness.  No software fixes or "tricks" would work, but I would recommend restoring in iTunes, first using a backup and if needed restore as a new phone. 
    Otherwise, opening and repairing the phone takes some tech knowledge that can't be relayed here.  Apple doesn't repair phones other than replacing batteries (not inconceivable that you have a bad battery), but offers "out-of-warranty" replacement (refurb) phones for $149 (US).  3rd party iPhone repair centers may be able to fix it for less.  Google to find them,
    Tried soft and hard resets
    FYI, there's no such thing as "soft" or "hard" resets in iPhone terminology.  There is only one phone reset. You'll see those terms thrown around by technically ignorant posters, but they mean different things to different people and are actually archaic, 1980s PC terms that have nothing to do with iPhones.

  • Camera Connector with Sony DSC-W50

    I'm trying to import photos from my Sony DSC-w50 to my 5G 60GB video ipod using the Apple Camera Connector. After connecting the device and turning on the camera I go to the Photo Import menu and select Import Photos it then goes to a screen that says "ready to connect" I'm not sure what to do after that the camera is connected to the ipod via the usb cable and the camera is turned on, seems to be all I can do.
    Any ideas?

    ptp is to go to a printer. i have 3 transfer modes on my minolta and 2 on my sony, they both only work when they are in normal mode.
    one quick note. i had a problem when i was transfering pics on one occasion, it just stopped mid-way and then would no longer recognise the camera. i turned both off then back on, nothing. i did the select+menu reset and everything was back to normal.
    i am quickly finding that the camera connector is a finnicky piece now that i am looking to find a card reader that it will recognize. i doesn't recognise much. good luck
