Creating and Editing Albums? Is anyone else having this problem?

I have an older/different model of this picture frame but I suspect the issue is the same. The frame is designed for someone to take the card straight out of their camera and insert it into the frame and view pictures. These cards follow a very specific directory/folder structure and there are strict requirements on file names. Basically, you need the memory card to follow the DCF format. From Wikipedia: The root directory in a digital camera contains a DCIM (Digital Camera Images) directory which contains possibly multiple subdirectories with names such as "123ABCDE", and no two directories may have the same three digit code. The alphabet characters often refer to a camera maker. Each image has a name such as "ABCD1234" for image number 1234. Look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_system for more details and links to even more information. Hope that helps.

That is exactly what this album is for. As the description says, it has "traditional cardstock pages with semi-transparent sheet between each page". This means the pages are blank pages of thick cardstock paper. You have to attach the pictures to the pages with either adhesive, tape, or photo mounts. Hope that helps. :)

THe problem is you need to use folders for the songs. If you place too many songs on the root , there is a limitation on the total number of characters the file system can handle. Its a FAT filesystem limitation. I recommend putting your music together in folders for each album. That will fix it.

Mine installed on Windows 8 better than Windows 7! Supposedly it works for doing record albums -- only I haven't figured out how!

I had the same problem. Sorry, no, I cannot help. I'm considering reinstallation of the software.

When I owned the camera you had to do to many file conversions to get editing software to open it. It was a headache. It might be easier now I'm not sure. I went from video to audio.

I am running this on a PC. And I have no album art as far as I can tell on my computer.

I haven't yet. I was gonna try that this week. I have Pro Tools So I am guessing it won't be easy. I will let you know how it worked for me...

You bet. I am guessing that you ripped all of your music with Windows Media Player. I had the same issue and all of my album art showed up under the photo's, but not with the music. I spent some time trying to figure this out and I think is has to do with the method Windows Media stores the music. If you look at the files under explorer you will see the group name, then there is a subfolder with the album name. Click on the album name and you find the music. If you click on the folder options and check the box to show all hidden files, you will find the album art for the folder and either a large JPEG or small JPEG. This was my work around, it wasn't fast or pretty but it worked. The first thing I did was copy all of the songs and album art from the album name folder and pasted it under the Group's name folder. Then, I used a share ware program (I'm at work now and will post the site later on) and pasted the album art to each song and to the folder. The share ware program is pretty easy to use and it gives a lot more just by point the mouse at the file. I then renamed each folder to the group name -album name. When I tested it with my WD Player it was all there. Group name-album name and the album art. If you download music, each song has the album art attached to it. There must be a way to manipulate the Window Media file storage setting, but I have not figured it out yet. This way works I know that. Regards, Danbo

Not with out a lot of work and help. I tried to move photos from my PC to an iPad and so I could create albums and I never did get the job done. If I had the choice I would not buy this product.

I'm glad to know that Robbie(below) has been able to transfer photos. So far, I have not, but I probably don't know how to do it correctly or my computer is too old. Good luck. I love the camera, tho.

Capture nx2 isn't designed for making albums, specifically it is designed for editing photos, color correction, enhancement etc. To create albums use the viewnx program that came with your camera software. Congratulations you have one of the best dslr's on the market today.

You can't add inserts to this album. I bought several. They do hold 500 photos, and it's a good way to store them. Looking at them however can be a challenge. They tend to flop around unless they are the larger prints.

Well, I upgraded to PSE 6.0 from PSE 5.0 a few months ago, really without thinking about it. I just wanted the latest software. Unfortunately, I have had quite a few problems relating to the uploading of RAW files, i.e., the program doesn't seem to be able to handle them. After I've uploaded them from the built-in card reader in my PC (running Windows XP), the thumbnails in the Organizer appear as "broken links" and usually the program crashes shortly thereafter. I've seen complaints about this on various forums but Adobe seems apparently unable or unwilling to do anything about it at this point. It does seem to be limited to this one feature (i.e., uploading .CR2 files) but that is a drag because that is the format I usually shoot in. Otherwise, it's a terrific program. It certainly has lots of great features. But I'm spending too much time trying to keep it running. I should have stuck with PSE 5.0 until Adobe came out with some fixes for this.

I don't know. It's been working for me. What program are you using to copy music onto them?

Not sure how to fix this or if there even IS a fix. I try to use landscape pics as much as possible or edit them before putting them on my SD card. Do you still have your user manual? Did you try to contact Nix support?
