I loaded images into my Mac Powerbook GE using a PC Card Adapter. The pics were taken on an Epson PC200 camera that I am borrowing. No software came with it.<BR>
Anyway, to identify the pictures, I deleted a number sequence, 91070085.JPG and put a title, like "Big Face", so I could identify the picture easier.<BR>
When I load the CF card back into the camera, the camera no longer detects that image and I can't see it on the camera's screen. <BR>
Why?<BR>

Hi,<BR>
I am not familiar with your particular camera but:<BR>
Other cameras as Nikon Coolpix Nikon D1X Olympus Camedia ... show the same issue.<BR>
When you change the photos on your mac you render them useless for the camera which expects to find everything in the way the camera saves.<BR>
I'll recommend you to never change data on a card. Always transfer the images to the computer! and only after do what you wish with them.<BR>
Just for technical clarity, the Mac writes invisible files to the card as Desktop database ...<BR>
<BR>
Take care of your cards! You really do not want to loose the images. After transfering pics to the computer <b>always format the card in the camera!</b><BR>
Trust me you want to do it to make sure the cards are always fresh for use, and you avoid the question <b>"Did I already transfer those images"</b>
