Error copying JPEGs

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

I copied digital jpegs from a Memory Stick (4 MB), from a Sony DSC-S50, to a hard drive. So far no problem, they can be viewed on any number of imaging programs. The problem is that they can no longer be copied back to a floppy to transfer to another computer. "Error writing to disk", sorry, that's not the exact wording. Also, they won't copy back to the Memory Stick. This is with Win95 and a Memory stick floppy adapter. Any info? I couldn't find any info on Sony.com or some other sources that I've tried so far. Thanks in advance, Frank F.

Check the file properties to see whether the files are set to read only. If they have an R behind them the properties have to be changed. Deselect the read only box in the file properties dialog box and you should be able to copy them.
