I don’t know about Bluetooth but if you have messaging capability, you can send it to your email account.

What you can do depends on who your cell phone carrier is, and if their version of your model of phone is crippled so bad that the only way you can do it is to use the services of your provider.

I had the same exact problem and, for the life of me, I couldn’t figure out how to download it. Well, I took an art class and just drew his picture. It actually looks a bit like him.

No help here, digital camera's rule. Phone camera's are lame.
I bought a 8.2 mega pixels or 80.00 Dollars in Nov.

This sucker takes great pics and is easy to load.

Simple photo, posted at a reduced resolution on Photobucket. The little cheerleaderPhotobucket.

That is my beautiful daughter.

Easiest to email the photo to yourself.

If your computer has bluetooth capability, you can usually connect via Bluetooth and do a file transfer. But, this can be tricky depending on the computer, OS and drivers. If you can send the photo via email from the phone, that’s the way to go.

While we’re on photos, I discovered a problem today that I don’t know how to solve.

Its been nearly a year since the last time I tried to save photos from the computer to disc and now I get a message telling me that there is no disc in the drive and when I check properties it says that the disc in the drive is full but they’re new discs.

I’m using XP on an HP.

Cripplecreek:

Have you used the disc previously?

Is it a CD-R or CD-R/W? If CD-R/W it’s reusable. If CD-R and it’s been used and formalized, it can’t be written to again.

If it’s a new disc, check to see whether a quick format is necessary before you can write to the disc.

SecurityMama:

Regarding, getting photos from a cell phone to a PC, the easiest, least-hassle, way is to sent a picture message to your email account. I have Verizon with Get It Now. I simply go into Get It Now, then to My Pictures, select the picture you want to send then use the Sent Picture Message option. Enter your email address in the appropriate box and send it.

Once you receive the message in your inbox, the photo will be there as an attachment. Save it to a directory on your hard drive.
