Why will it take 40 hours to download pictures?

The problem is that it’s a mac photo gallery which my mom can’t download the pics from, and it’s on a web site where all the thumbnails have to load at once before you can see anything &s he’s on a dial up connnection :(

Lemme see if I can get her to email you some pictures :)

Dear janet, This is depending on how you’re downloading them and from what? Are they on a CD, zip drive etc. then they should open in a graphic viewer without a wait…if you want to copy them to your hard drive try doing a few at a time. If you give it a few minutes you may see it go from 40hrs. to 5 min. The computer reads it as one lump sum at first then adjusts. Sue…good luck

Try uploading the photos to www.photobucket.com and then she can copy them with out having to download them. Oh Hi Jeremy’s Mom. . .

I think your children should be able to send yousomething that won’t take quite so long to download. (hi mom) :)
