david_eicher Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I am using the Sandisk card reader, finding my images thru Windows Explorer,then moving them over to PC into Folders I create. The last image refuses totransfer or so the error states; but in actuality it does show up in the folderAND stays in the camera. I then delete it in the camera or thru WindowsExplorer. Anyone else ever seen/heard anything about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_in_PA Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 You haven't been burned yet... I suggest this. NEVER use the "move" command. Always copy, then back up if you can, THEN FORMAT the card in the camera rather than the computer. If your computer should fritz out while you are "moving" you can lose MUCH data. This may or may not be related to your problem, but it's a good tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry_ Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Ditto on the above advice. Here is a suggestion: try shooting ten images on your camera. Make a new folder to put the images into. Then put your SD card in the reader and use Windows Explorer to 'copy' the files into your new folder. Do all the images transfer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_eicher Posted August 20, 2006 Author Share Posted August 20, 2006 Doesn't matter whether I copy or move images. I am aware of the copy over procedure and am trying to remember to put it into practice more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oski Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 This sounds like the last file is read-only. Check the properties of the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walterh Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Yes it happens to me to accidentally hit the "lock" button on my D200. "Move" then has a problem :-) Cheers Walter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_eicher Posted August 21, 2006 Author Share Posted August 21, 2006 No, no locked image. As stated it does transfer, but also leave a copy on camera too. No big deal, just kinda strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soumya_simanta Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Are you sure the image is not locked? Did you check that within the camera OR you assume that it is not locked because you can transfer it with your "move" action ? I mean even if it is locked the "move" action will create a copy but not delete it from the original SD card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
