Copying wirelessly to/from your computer

The KODAK EASYSHARE Digital Display Software (included on the CD that was packaged with your frame) lets you drag and drop (copy) pictures, videos, and music wirelessly between your frame and computer or other connected devices (see Connecting a digital camera or other USB device).

Before you proceed:

  1. Make sure you install the software packaged with your frame (see Installing the software: WINDOWS OS only). Connect to your wireless home network (see Connecting to your wireless network), then verify your computer connection (see Verifying computer/device connections).

    Your frame can now access the content on your host computer, wirelessly.

    NOTE: If you have more than one frame on your wireless network, give them unique names so you can tell them apart. Go to Home ® Settings ® Device configuration menu. ( .)

  5. Click Pictures and Videos or My Devices to find the pictures, videos, etc. you want to copy.

  6. In the Viewer pane, select the pictures, videos, etc., then drag and drop them to the new location in the Drag and Drop Zone (for example, the frame's internal memory, a memory card, computer, or connected USB device).
