4) Under the file name, click the drop-down menu next to where it says,

"Save as type:", and select "JPEG (*.JPG, *JPEG, *.JPE, *JFIF)

5) Click Save.

Your photo will now be saved as a baseline RGB jpg file.

PROBLEM: The frame will not connect to the computer properly

SOLUTION: Check your operating system. If you have Windows 98 you need to

download the drivers at http://spectareproducts.com under the support

section.

2) Select the "Paint" program.

3) Open the File menu in the upper lefthand corner, and click "SaveAs..."

4) Under the file name, click the drop-down menu next to where it says,

"Save as type:", and select "JPEG (*.JPG, *JPEG, *.JPE, *JFIF)

5) Click Save.

Your photo will now be saved as a baseline RGB jpg file.

PROBLEM: The frame will not connect to the computer properly

SOLUTION: Check your operating system. If you have Windows 98 you need to

download the drivers at http://spectareproducts.com under the support

section.

2) Select the "Paint" program.

3) Open the File menu in the upper lefthand corner, and click "SaveAs..."

4) Under the file name, click the drop-down menu next to where it says,

"Save as type:", and select "JPEG (*.JPG, *JPEG, *.JPE, *JFIF)

5) Click Save.

Your photo will now be saved as a baseline RGB jpg file.

PROBLEM: The frame will not connect to the computer properly

SOLUTION: Check your operating system. If you have Windows 98 you need to

download the drivers at http://spectareproducts.com under the support

section.

following:

1. Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer

2. Disconnect any other USB devices connected to your computer.

2) Select the "Paint" program.

3) Open the File menu in the upper lefthand corner, and click "SaveAs..."

4) Under the file name, click the drop-down menu next to where it says,

"Save as type:", and select "JPEG (*.JPG, *JPEG, *.JPE, *JFIF)

5) Click Save.

Your photo will now be saved as a baseline RGB jpg file.

PROBLEM: The frame will not connect to the computer properly

SOLUTION: Check your operating system. If you have Windows 98 you need to

download the drivers at http://spectareproducts.com under the support

section.

following:

1. Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer

2. Disconnect any other USB devices connected to your computer.

2) Select the "Paint" program.

3) Open the File menu in the upper lefthand corner, and click "SaveAs..."

4) Under the file name, click the drop-down menu next to where it says,

"Save as type:", and select "JPEG (*.JPG, *JPEG, *.JPE, *JFIF)

5) Click Save.

Your photo will now be saved as a baseline RGB jpg file.

PROBLEM: The frame will not connect to the computer properly

SOLUTION: Check your operating system. If you have Windows 98 you need to

download the drivers at http://spectareproducts.com under the support

section.

following:

1. Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer

2. Disconnect any other USB devices connected to your computer.

2) Select the "Paint" program.

3) Open the File menu in the upper lefthand corner, and click "SaveAs..."

4) Under the file name, click the drop-down menu next to where it says,

"Save as type:", and select "JPEG (*.JPG, *JPEG, *.JPE, *JFIF)

5) Click Save.

Your photo will now be saved as a baseline RGB jpg file.

PROBLEM: The frame will not connect to the computer properly

SOLUTION: Check your operating system. If you have Windows 98 you need to

download the drivers at http://spectareproducts.com under the support

section.

following:

1. Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer

2. Disconnect any other USB devices connected to your computer.
