SOURCE: Installing the Photo Viewer Software

MAC is developing a miniCD adapter. But that doesn't really help you now. Probably your best bet is to connect it to your mac via USB since it has a port and just drag and drop onto the flash drive. Mac should read it as a file.

SOURCE: can run photoviewer program for photo keychain

1. Connect the USB cable to your computer and Digital Photo Keychain. Press ^/down to
access the USB update mode on the Digital Photo Keychain and press the menu/power
button ( ). Your keychain will now say, “updating” and you are ready to open the software
on your computer. (Please note that the keychain will continue to say, “updating” the entire
time that you are working with the program on your computer and will change only when you
safely disconnect it from the computer.)
IMPORTANT: The keychain MUST be plugged in and in “update” mode in order for you to
open the Photo Viewer program. If it is not plugged in, or is in the wrong mode, you will get
the following error: No photo viewer is found, program terminated!
2. Once the keychain is plugged in and in “update” mode, double click the Photo Viewer
icon on your desktop to launch the application.
3. Use Photo Viewer’s file manager to browse photos on your computer.

SOURCE: Cant upload photos from my Sony DSC-S750

Digital cameras on windows seem to like getting a letter that is higher than D but lower than H in the alphabet. I don't know why. But when windows assigns out all the letters through H: it sometimes stops mounting some devices properly.

TRY THIS

Uninstall the camera driver and software, un-hook the camera, and restart. Then boot the PC. Make sure that you do not currently have any drives using letters F or G. If you do, use disk manager in your control panel to change the CD/DVD drive letter to Y,X, or Z

Attach the camera to a different USB port than you usually use (Believe it or not that is critical) and then reinstall the driver and software. Give it a moment before attempting to access the device and make sure that it is assigned a drive letter.

Should work fine after that.

Hello! I'm trying to find how to upload my coby photo keychain DP 151. I have a new computer with Windows 7. Can you help me? Thank you

All you do is plugin the keychain to your computer, (make sure you push the cable all the way into the keychain), the softwre should auto popup on your computer screen.

If not, connect, then go to 'Computer under your start button, it will be labeled as a CD rom drive, double click it to access it.

I have a coby dp 151 i can not find the drivers for it.... i need to find them for it. i can not formatt my coby also

there is no drivers for this, it comes with software (installation cd) or its preloaded on the unit itself.

You have to use the software to transfer photos to the keychain,

If you look on the back of your kecyahin, it will say DP151 (SX, MP, BW, etc).

BW has the software preloaded
SX can be downloaded from here:

I've installed program for by coby DP-151 photo keychain and followed the directions and disconnected the player from the computer. Upon reattaching the player to the usb cable I only get a solid blue...

I actually got tired of messing with this thing and tossed it. I've since found a photo viewer by Nextar with a built in CD rom and it automatically comes up when plugged in to the USB port. Works like a charm!

Program will not run properly

I found this on an Amazon review. I hope it works for you:

1) Install the software on the CD (although the application won't open just yet)
2) Plug in the usb cable into the pc and the keychain and wait a minute (nothing happened here for me)
3) Unplug the cable that goes into the keychain, and then plug it back in. On the keychain screen, an option menu should come up that allows you to select either to power the keychain or to update the keychain via usb. Select the update option. (Note that drivers might install before this or maybe it found the driver I downloaded at the coby website?)
4) Now that you have selected the update option, you can now open the program that was installed off of the cd. Select the pictures you want, move them over, and then download them to the keychain.

Copy DP-151 Photo Viewer software does not work.

You have to push the USB cable into the keychain until it pops. Push it in hard! I thought mine was all the way in because the keychain lit up, but it wasn't.

I have a coby dp-161 and cannot get the pictures to install.

We had the same problem and you won't believe how simple the actual fix was!!! When you plug the USB plug into the keychain device or whatever device you are using (in our case it was a keychain), make absolutely certain that the plug is pushed in all the way (it is tough to push in) until it actually clicks and all you see is the black part of the USB plug. Then try your software. It should work!!!
