Troubleshooting
Digital frame does not power on
• Make sure the power is securely connected to the digital frame and to a working
electrical outlet.
• Check that the power switch on the side of your panel is switched ON.
Remote does not work
• Make sure the plastic protective film between the remote’s battery and battery terminal
has been removed, enabling the battery to work.
• Be sure to point the remote directly at the Receiver Sensor which is located as seen
on Figure 1 on page 7.
• Check the remote’s battery and replace it if needed. For more information, see
Installing or Changing the Remote’s Battery on page 9.
• The remote does not operate while in the SLAVE mode. Refer to SLAVE Mode on
page 14 for more information.
• While displaying audio/video from an external source (that is, when you have
connected the digital frame to an external device using the Audio In and Video In jacks
in the bottom of the frame) you will only have access to limited functions (volume and
setup).
No image is displayed
• Verify that there are image files on the card.
• Make sure the card is inserted properly.
• Make sure that the digital frame is turned on.
• Your card may contain images in a non-standard file format. The digital frame can
display images only in a JPG (JPEG) format. You can use image editing software to
convert non-standard image files to a standard JPG format and transfer them to your
media card with an appropriate adaptor.
Picture or movie display seems slow
• Higher-resolution images or movies take longer to load; if you are not satisfied with
the display speed, try using lower-resolution images.
• For movie files, be sure you are using a high-speed memory card.
Movie or pictures display in a small area of the screen
• Many digital cameras record movies or pictures at a 320 x 240 pixels (or lower)
resolution, which may result in movies being displayed in less than full-screen mode.
The digital frame optimal resolution is 800 x 600 pixels.
I uploaded my video file but it does not start
• Make sure your files are MJPEG or AVI. If the files other than MJPEG or AVI, you will
need to convert your files.
21
I can not rotate an image the way I want to
• The remote’s ROTATE button alternates between rotating the images horizontally and
vertically. To return an image to its original position, you will have to click the ROTATE
button four times to cycle through to the original orientation.
• If you are trying to rotate an image during “auto mode” with a relatively short transition
time (such as a one- or three- second interval), the digital frame may not have time to
process all your rotate commands before it transitions to the next slide. Set the slide
show to “manual mode” and then press the ROTATE button.
• Movie files cannot be rotated.
I uploaded MP3 files but on COMBO option I can not hear my music
• Your MP3 files should be in the same folder with the pictures.
I can not display or hear external video/audio
• Make sure the audio and video cables are firmly connected to both the digital frame
and the external source of video/audio (DVD player, cable box, etc.)
• Make sure the audio and video cables are connected to the correct output jacks on
your external source.

Q: Why Digital Photo Frame does not show some of my photos?
A: Digital cameras take photos and store them in JPEG format according to camera
22
industry standards. Digital Photo Frame is designed to show following the same
industry standards. Some images, such as web images, scanned images, or photos in
RAW format from professional cameras, are not stored according to camera industry
standards and therefore cannot be correctly displayed on Digital Photo Frame. Please
use PC applications to convert such images into standard JPEG format for digital
Photo Frame.
Q: I'm trying to upload pictures from my PC directly to the Digital Picture Frame using
the USB connection, but I cannot get it working. What can I do?

drive. Disconnect the USB cable. After a few seconds, all photos in the root directory
will be automatically added to Internal Memory. Please note that this operation does
not apply to photos in sub-directories.
Q: Why is the picture display slower with some pictures and faster with others?
A: Higher resolution pictures load slower. Try using lower resolution pictures.

A: There are three different ways to transfer images to your Digital photo frame.
1. Transfer files directly from your digital camera or storage device to the digital photo
frame via USB Cable.

picture frame and copying them to the internal memory.
