MY brother bought my mom an electronic Photo frame and I can't figure out how to reload pics back on a SD card, Please HELP!!!
 
I suppose you could print the photos and then take pictures of the prints. Just kidding.

To give a good answer, I need to know a few things. Where are the pictures now? Are they on a computer? If so, where on the computer?

When you copied the pictures to their current location, did you hook up the camera or did you take the card out and use a card reader?

What program (if any) did you use to copy the pictures from the card?

If they are on a computer, what kind is it? Mac? Windows XP? Windows Vista? Linux? Windows ME?

Couldn't you just put a blank SD card in the card reader and use it as a flash drive - you know, copy the photos you want from the computer TO the SD card in the card reader?

I don't know if it would be possible to do it with the SD card in the camera.

I just did that to transfer pics from my laptop to my desktop...it worked fine.
 
If you plug your camera back into your computer, it will create a disk drive for the camera. Then, you can use camera just like any other disk drive. Simply copy the pictures back onto it.
 
I have the SD card in my laptop but I don't know how to get them from the Adobe Photo to the SD card. The File only gives me the option to send to email, send to phone and rename
 
Also my computer downloaded the Adobe photo album and everytime I download my pictures they go to this how do I save them to my pictures or something else because I am clueless how to use this program.
 
You need to go to My Computer. There you will see all your hard drives, CD/DVD drives and any other drives like your card reader (each slot will have its own letter). Put your SD card into the card reader. It should show up under My Computer, sometimes as the model number of the camera it was used on.

Next you need to go to the C: drive and find the folder where Adobe Photoshop Album is storing the files (check under Program Files, then Adobe, then go from there to see where it is). Or you could do a search on the C: drive for a specific file name.

Once you find the folder, at the very top in the buttons section there is a button called Folders. Click this and on the left side of the screen you'll get a list of all the Folders on your computer starting with Desktop, then My Compter. Each folder under My Computer will have a + next to it. Find the Removable Drive letter for you SD card. From here you can click on each file in the Adobe Album and drag it to the SD card folder or you can click the very first file, then hold down the shift button and click the last file. This will highlight all the files. Right click anywhere on a highlighted file, then click copy. Next click once on the SD card folder then right click and click paste. This will be sure to keep the pictures on your hard drive and also put them on the SD card.

It reads a lot more complicated than it is. The hardest part will be finding the Adobe Photoshop Album file on your hard drive where all your pictures are currently being stored.

There should be an option somewhere in the program (maybe under file or tools that says options or preferences, then transfers and options maybe, I don't know the program, but all programs having something like this somewhere in them) where you can change the folder to where the files are downloaded to. You'll need to click a browse button then find on your hard drive and click on the folder you want the photos to be downloaded to.
 
Problems you might have. I got 2 of these at Christmas and some SD cards. After I selected the photos and copied them to the SD card via the card reader, they were not visible in the digital frame. I believe they were the wrong jpeg format. After several different attempts, I was forced to use a program from the digital frame manufactures site to convert (and resize) the photos. I was then able to copy them and view them.
