Showing a slideshow of photos from your camera

There are three main ways in which your Zaurus can access photos on your digital camera:

The best method for you will depend on the memory card format used by your camera:

  • If your camera supports CompactFlash (CF), SecureDigital (SD) or MultiMedia cards (MMC) you can follow the instructions below.

  • If your camera supports XD format, you might wish to purchase a CF card adapter which will allow the card to be read in the CF slot. Then follow the instructions below. Otherwise, try one of the other two methods.

  • If your camera supports Memory Stick or Smartmedia, you'll have to try one of the other two methods.

Transferring pictures via the memory card

Put the camera's memory card into the appropriate slot on the Zaurus (either CF or SD/MMC) and see its icon appear at the righthand end of the status bar. Then launch the Photo Storage application and start a slide show (choose View photos, select the appropriate location from the dropdown list and navigate to the folder where your photos are stored). You should also find your camera folders listed in the Files tab of the Home page on the Zaurus.

To present your slide show, you might wish to use the Zaurus in "presentation mode" – swivel the screen round so that it is facing away from the keyboard (clockwise, please!) and tilt it back slightly onto the keyboard. This enables others to see your pics while you control the keyboard.

When you want to remove the camera card from the Zaurus, tap on the card icon, then on Eject and only remove the card when the icon has disappeared.

[Note]Note

If you are copying your pictures to the Zaurus please ensure you put them in the Photo_Files folder.

[Tip]Tip

If your camera phone uses an MMC memory card, you can just plug this card into the SD slot and view pictures taken with your phone.
