How do I Rotate pictures? (Applies to pictures in Frame's internal memory only)
  1. Use the arrow keys to access Rotate from the Pictures Menu, and press OK.

  2. Use the arrow keys to select the picture you want to rotate.

  3. When the yellow bracket is around the picture you want to rotate, press OK.

    If the picture you want to rotate isn't displayed because there is only room for 8 thumbnails at once, keep using the arrow keys until you've selected (yellow bracket) either Get last four pictures or Get next four pictures, and press OK.

  4. Press OK to rotate the selected picture 90°. Pressing OK again rotates it another 90°. It will remain in this orientation until you change it.

  5. When the picture is displayed to your satisfaction, press the arrow key to select another picture.

  6. Use the arrow keys to select 'Finish and return to viewing'. The picture you rotated is displayed first.

NOTE: If a picture on the Frame was rotated using the Rotate Menu option, it appears with black bars because the Frame had to adjust the aspect ratio to 4:3.

You cannot rotate pictures that are displayed from a COMPACTFLASH Card. To avoid creating problems for digital cameras that might later try to read a picture file from the COMPACTFLASH Card, the Frame allows pictures on a COMPACTFLASH Card to be copied and deleted, but they cannot be rotated.

How do I Delete pictures?
  1. Use the arrow keys to access Delete from the Pictures Menu and press OK.

  2. Use your arrow keys to select the picture you want to delete. When the yellow bracket is around the picture you want to delete, press OK.

    If the picture you want to delete isn't displayed because there is only room for 8 thumbnails at once, use the arrow keys to select either Get last four pictures or Get next four pictures, and press OK. Each time you press OK, an X appears over the picture you selected to delete. Repeat this procedure for each picture you want to delete. If you accidentally select a picture for deletion, select it again, (yellow highlight) and press OK again to remove the X.

  3. When you have selected all the pictures you want to delete, use the arrow keys to highlight Continue to confirm deletion, and press OK.


Note: Deleted pictures cannot be recovered.

How do I set the time?

This is very important because the Automatic on/off function requires that the Frame's time is set correctly.

  1. Access the Advanced option in the Frame Menu (use arrow keys to bracket, and press OK).

  2. Use the arrow keys to select Set the Time, and press OK.

  3. Set the time in Step 1. Use the arrow keys to select the correct hour and press OK. Use the arrow keys to select the correct minutes, and press OK (holding an arrow key down quickly advances the selections). Use the arrow key to select a.m. or p.m., and press OK.

If you decide not to change the time, use the arrow key to highlight Cancel Changes, and press OK. The Frame begins to display pictures immediately.

How do I view my pictures on my COMPACTFLASH Card?

Insert a COMPACTFLASH Card containing digital pictures into the Frame. Insert the card into the side of the Frame. The Frame automatically begins to load for display what it believes to be the last picture on the card (the most recent). In a slide show mode, the pictures from the COMPACTFLASH Card appear after the pictures stored on the Frame. COMPACTFLASH Card pictures can be identified on the Frame by a "CF" icon displayed in the lower right-hand corner of each picture. You can view in still mode or in slide show mode.

If you wish, you can copy the pictures from the COMPACTFLASH Card to your Frame. If you copy your pictures to the Frame this way, they will be compressed to 640 x 480 resolution.

How do I store pictures from the Frame on a COMPACTFLASH Card?

You can copy a picture from the Frame to a COMPACTFLASH Card.

The Frame stores up to 36 VGA (640 x 480) pictures in the JPEG (.jpg) file format. If higher resolution pictures are copied to the Frame from a COMPACTFLASH Card, they are compressed to 640 x 480 for display on the Frame.

If you are using the COMPACTFLASH Card to store Frame pictures, you can now delete the copied pictures from the Frame to make room for new pictures.

How do I remove the black bars from the top and bottom, or from both sides, of the pictures on my Frame?

This does not indicate a problem with the Frame. You cannot remove these black bars or black regions at the top and bottom or on either side of your pictures because the Frame displays images with a 4:3 aspect ratio*. Pictures with 640 x 480 resolution have an aspect ratio of 4:3 (comparing 640 to 480 is like comparing 4 to 3). If the aspect ratio of a picture is not 4:3, the Frame adjusts the aspect ratio to 4:3. Black bars are the result of this adjustment.

For example, a picture from a KODAK Picture CD has a resolution of 1024 x 1536, and, an aspect ratio of 1:1.5 Therefore, a picture from a Picture CD and stored on a COMPACTFLASH Card is displayed on the frame with black bars (their position dependent on whether the picture is landscape or portrait). However, a picture with higher-resolution that has a 4:3 aspect ratio will be compressed to 640 x 480 for display on the Frame, but it won't be displayed with black bars.

If a picture on the Frame was rotated using the Pictures Menu, Rotate option, it will also appear with black bars because the Frame had to adjust the aspect ratio to 4:3.

*Aspect ratio is a comparison of the horizontal resolution to the vertical resolution

How do I safely clean my Frame (bezel)?

You can wipe your Frame with a damp, soft cloth, if necessary. If you want to remove the bezel (wooden frame) to do a thorough cleaning with a wood cleaner or polish:

  1. Turn off the Frame and unplug the power supply from the wall.

  2. Turn the frame upside-down so that the LCD screen is facing (or, is in) your lap.

  3. Locate two tabs with indentations molded into them behind the frame stand, against the bezel.

  4. Using your thumbs, on these indentations, press down and away from the bezel. This is difficult and will require strength.

  5. Gently remove the bezel from the Frame LCD-back-stand assembly.

To replace the bezel, align the LCD (there is no up or down) with the bezel and press firmly until the bezel clicks into place.

How do I Caption a Picture?

You cannot caption pictures for display on your Frame.

How do I rearrange the order of my pictures on the Frame from the Frame?

You cannot rearrange the order of your pictures on the Frame.
