Move Pictures
From Your
Mobile Phone to
Your PC
You never know when a photo
opportunity is going to arise, which is
why having a camera phone can be so
much fun
Transferring those photos from
your phone to your
computer can serve two important
purposes
First, it lets you share and store
those photos using
Your computer.
Second, when you transfer photos
from your phone to your computer
you can free up precious storage space
on your phone
You can transfer Photos from your
memory card to your computer using
a memory card reader such as this one
from Sandisk
I USE A MEMORY CARD READER SINCE
MY PHONE IS A MOTOROLA
MODEL V3M RAZOR CAMERA PHONE
I HAVE A TINY MEMORY CHIP
I CONNECT TO MY COMPUTER
VIA A SANDISK CARD READER
TIME PERMITTING I WILL
DEMONSTRATE
HOW I PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE
IT DOES TAKE A LITTLE PRACTICE AND
A LOT OF PATIENCE
My Presentation focuses on the most
common ways to transfer
Photos from your phone to your PC
which are sending pictures
Via e-mail (if your phone and
subscription support it)
Using your phone’s cable to transfer
photos manually
wireless transfer
The instructions I am providing are
general, and the menu
Options and features will vary based on
which phone and service you have
Picture Mail
If you have e-mail on your mobile
phone, you can send the photos as
an attachment to your e-mail
account, just as you would on
your computer
Once you’ve taken the picture,
your phone will likely provide
you with an e-mail icon (such as an
envelope) that you can select to
send the picture straight to email
If you don’t want to send the picture
right away,
your phone does not have this option, or
you want
to send photos you’ve taken in the past,
go to the folder that stores all your
photos.
At the bottom, choose either Send or
Menu.
Generally, these two functions will
offer the option to send the photo
via e-mail
When you find the option to send
your photo through e-mail, select
it
You will then need to choose which
e-mail account to send it from if you
have more than one
Once you’ve chosen the e-mail
account, a new email message will
appear with the photo attached.
Enter the address you want to
send it to
(you can send it to yourself
from the same email address and
then download it from your
computer) and then press Send
When the email pops up in the
account you use on your
computer
click to download it or send it
on to family and friends
Put It On Plastic
With a Windows Mobile Phone,
You can save a picture to the Memory card
by Going to Menu, selecting Save, and then
Save as
If your phone doesn't support e-mail,
But it does have a built-in memory card
slot
You can insert a compatible memory card
And save photos from the phone to the
card.
You can then remove the card and
transfer the Photos to your PC via an
external memory card reader
(A USB) drive that reads flash memory
cards)
However, before you purchase a memory
card or a memory card reader, be sure that
they support the same Memory card
format that your phone uses
To transfer photos using your
memory card, go to the Folder on your
phone that stores your camera images
To move them from your phone’s
storage bank to your Memory card,
select the photo (or photos) you want
to move and then open the menu (titled
something similar to Options or Menu
at the bottom of your screen)
Then find an option that lets you save
the photos to the memory Card, such as
Save AS or Move (or something similar)
SELECT YOUR MEMORY CARD AS THE
PLACE YOU WANT TO SAVE OR MOVE
YOUR PHOTOS TO
SAFELY EJECT YOUR MEMORY CARD
AND INSERT IT INTO A MEMORY
CARD READER THAT IS CONNECTED
TO YOUR pc
You will be able to gather
data from your memory card
in the same way you gather
documents and files from a
standard usb drive
Send It Through The Wire
Some phones let you transfer photos
from your phone to your PC using a USB
data cable
A USB data cable might have come with
your phone, but if it didn’t, check with
Your phone’s manufacturer to see if
you can purchase one for your phone
Next, plug the data cable into your
phone and then into your computer if
applicable
Follow the instructions to set up and
install your device
To transfer photos, you will likely
need to install
Synchronization software to your
computer
Some carriers will provide this
software with your Phone, or they will
make it available as a download
From their Web Site. For example,
Windows Mobile Phones can synchronize
data with the Windows Mobile
Device Center
Select which photos you want
To synchronize between your
Mobile phone and your
Computer
From here, you can save them
To your hard drive or a
Removable drive
Shoot send, enjoy
Once you transfer your photos to
your computer, you can add them to
your digital media library, share them
with friends and family online, or set
your favorite photo as your computer’s
desktop background
Moving photos from your mobile
Phone to your computer is an easy
Way to back them up in case your lose
or Break your mobile phone
