Why can't I read a camera card with Touchsmart

I have a Touchsmart 610 & when I insert a camera card it wants to format the card. All I want to do is import the photos. What am I doing wrong?

Have you tried placing the card in another PC, perhaps a laptop to see if it can be read?
Are you sure there are photos on the card?
Is it a micro SD card?
If you place the card in a USB adapter and then put it in a USB port on the PC do you see a folder named DCIM? 
Best regards,
erico

  • Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating.

    Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.

    I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.

  • Why can't I open RAW camera files with Photoshop 6 anymore??

    Attempted to open file, as I've done hundreds of times before. I get pop up window saying software can't open file. Nikon cameras used in my office are all supported.

    What cameras? What system? How are they transferred to the computer? Where are they stored? Did you change your camera settings recently? Manipulate the files in another program? There could be a million reasons...

    You can ONLY use the itunes store of your country of residence ( proven by the billing address on your credit card) AND ONLY while you are physically located inside the borders of that country.
    You would have to live in the U.S and physically be located in the U.S in order ot use the U.S tunes store.  The same is true for each countrys itunes store.

  • HT1918 why can I not change my payment card

    why can I not change my payment card?

    This region thing and reset limit is not new. It was put in place since the medium debuted in the 90's. It is a means of controlling content distribution to the studios benefit. For instance, launch Avatar II in the US, milk the local moviegoers while creating expectation, then slowly release it to different regions of the world. Or keep the pesky Euro movies out of the US market to avoid eating into the meager sales.
    Some directors loathe this with a PASSION. That's why Peter Jackson released the home version of Lord of the Rings Trilogy simultaneously worldwide.

    Hi,
    I would recommend you to perform the steps mentioned below and check if it helps:
    1. Temporarily disable all the third party security programs and boot in
    Clean Boot to exclude 3rd party factor’s effect.
    2. Update your video card drivers and BIOS to the latest version.
    Hope it helps.

  • Why can't I use my itune card I redeemed

    Why can't I use a gift card I recieved to make itune purchases

    What happens when you try to buy something, what are you trying to buy (you can't use your balance for gifting, you can only use a credit card) ?
    If this is the first time that you've tried to buy something and you are being prompted to enter card details then unless you used the instructions on this page when creating it : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store. You should be able to remove the card after entering it.
    Or, and if you are being prompted to review the account, then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If you are getting a message to contact iTunes Support then to do so (these are user-to-user forums) :
    - go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww
    - click on your country's flag
    - click on the Contact Support at the bottom of the left-hand column
    - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    - then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If it's a different problem ... ?

  • Why can't I read my book in Reader like I bought it?????

    It's been awhile since I used one of my eBooks but every time I double-click it brings me to a web-site to install DE. Even after installing it still takes me to DE. Even when I'm in DE the experience is less than pleasurable. Why can't I read it how I want to? I hate DRM!!!!! Way to kill enthusiasm for eBooks Adobe! Guess I'll have to repurchase a paper version.
    Who programmed this piece of crap anyway? Why can't I simply hold my down arrow to scroll the document like every other application in existence? Why does clicking above or below the thumb in the scrollbar not page up or page down like every other application in existence????? Why do I have to bring up some weird little window to zoom to anything other than a predefined width??? I am completely infuriated that I cannot read my book in the format I purchased it!
    Having it in Reader was so cool. I could double-click on the file and pick up reading where I left off. It almost felt like a book. Now it feels like locked digital content that I have to jump through a bunch of hoops to get to and that may or may not be there for me when I need it. Way to go idiots!

    With Adobe Acrobat 8.0, Adobe Reader 8.0 and the Digital Editions software, Adobe has really crippled the PDF reader. I supposed, eventually Adobe will address this issue, but here's what you can do now to get the functionality back:
    If you installed or upgraded to Adobe Acrobat 8.0 or Adobe Reader 8.0, uninstall the software and go back to Adobe Acrobat 7.0 or Adobe Reader 7.0. You can still download this version of Adobe Reader from Adobe's website.
    Uninstall the Digital Editions software completely from your computer.
    Go into Adobe Acrobat 7.0 or Adobe Reader 7.0 and disable the feature that automatically updates the software (to prevent your software from being upgraded to 8.0 without your knowledge):
    Edit > Preferences > Updates > select the option "Do not automatically check for critical updates"
    Change the file association for PDF files back to Adobe Reader 7.0 (or Adobe Acrobat 7.0): open up File Explorer > select Tools > Folder Options > File Types > find and highlight the PDF file type > select the "Change" button and select Adobe Reader 7.0 or Adobe Acrobat 7.0.
    This won't fix the books you've already opened in the Digital Editions software, but now when you download DRM protected PDF files, you can use them as you are accustomed to.

  • Why can't I read a book purchased through iPhone ibook app on my MacBook Pro?

    Why can't I read a book purchased through iPhone ibook app on my MacBook Pro? Also, is there any way to print pages from book?

    In general if you want to read paid-for ebooks on your Mac, you need to buy them from one of the other sources like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, or Googlebooks and use the free OS X and iOS reader apps which they provide instead of iBooks.

    To read a book on your computer, get the Kindle app for PC, and download the book you want from the Kindle Store.

  • Why can't I read iBooks with wi-fi?

    Why can't I read iBooks without wi-fi?

    if the iBooks are downloaded to your iPad they should be available to read in iBooks.
    If the iBooks were downloaded onto your computer and not sync'd to your iPad then they would not be availble, but as long as they are on the iPad you should be able to open iBooks and read them.
