Question

Retrieving photos from SD card

Apr 21, 2013 3:17AM PDT

Just got Samsung Galaxy Proclaim phone - took sd card from new phone and transferred photos from old phone - inserted sd card into Proclaim before activating. It looked like the photos went on the sd card but how do I retrieve them on the Proclaim? Need details here - don't know what I'm doing! Many thanks.

Keep in mind that not all phones use the same format to store photos.

There was a model that we had that looks like that. We dumped it because the -> setup <- was that you could only email your photos to your PC. At 25 cents each. It was a rip-off so we gave it away rather than deal with it.

We gave the memory card a look see with many utilities but if this was the same model the carrier plan here is like a pick pocket or thug.

Well, looks like I lost my pictures - live and learn I guess. Thanks for assistance.
