The procedures for importing different types of media files from other sources are similar, but may not be exactly the same as the procedure given in this chapter. For more information about importing media files from these other devices, see the Media Import Help Center. Importing photos or video files from a digital camera Use this procedure to import photos. If your digital camera supports a movie or video feature, you can also use this procedure to import video files. To import photos from a camera: 1 Connect the camera to your computer following the instructions that came with the camera. 2 Use the Windows AutoPlay dialog or Roxio Home to open Media Import. From Roxio Home, click the Photo project category, then click Import Photos. 3 Using Media Import's Device drop-down list, select your camera. 4 Select the photos or videos to import. 5 Select the location in which you want to save the media files. 6 In the Rename Files text box, enter a name for the selected files.
