put the card in the card reader
open my computer(i assume Windows)
you should see the memory card as a removable drive
you can then drag the pictures to that card(or double click the card to open a folder of its contents)
however if you didnt delete them,and simply copied them to the PC
they should still be there0 -
i did delete them from the camera when i put them on the pc, i've opened the drive the pictures are there but when i put the memory card back in camera they won't play back0
-
it seems to be sending the back to card reader as its flashing but can't see the on camera screen0
-
so you have copied the pictures back to the memory card?
is it a camera or photo frame you want to see them on?0 -
both really, but right now i want to play them on the camera to show my mum who has no pc, can you help please, i'm upset if they are now stuck on pc0

If you want to view them on the camera screen, the folder structure of the memory card needs to correct.
You can check if the images are on the memory card by plugging it into the card reader attached to your computer. The card will show up in Windows Explorer (My Computer / Computer) as a removable drive with the next available drive letter (possibly E: or F: ) you can now open and browse the images on the card in the same way you would look in your pictures folder.How do I add a signature?0 -
i can view them on pc but not when i put the memory card back into camera, i want to look at them on the camera when i take it out with me, when i click on my computer they are under removeable disc d, i've right click on send them sent to removeable disc d, but still not playing when card is back in camera0

What I'd do is put the memory card back into the camera, and then take a photo. Now, put the memory card back into the PC, and using My Computer, browse through the folders on the memory card until you find the photo you just took. Copy and paste the photos that are stored on your computer into that same folder, and try and see if they'll appear on the camera.0 -
Did you copy the images into the root of drive d: or into a folder of drive d: ?How do I add a signature?0

try creating a folder on the memory card(right click,new,folder)
name it "DCIM"
drag the pictures into that folder
try that in the camera
Im thinking the photo frame may need the pics in the card itself. the camera in a DCIM folder0
