Can I use a flashdrive on this frame? Is there a usb port?

I bought this as a gift for someone. However, if you read the reviews, using a flashdrive to trandfer pictures produces gaining, blurry pics. I hope this helps :)

Am traveling. I do not believe there is a USB port. Will check manual when I get home.

yes....but I don't use either....I use thumbdrives plugged into the side of the unit. (usb slot) You can plug almost anything into it!

Yes, there is a USB port on the unit, however I was not able to get the unit to recognize the flash drive was present. I ended up using a memory card. I had also hoped to have two or three slideshows on the flash drive and be able to show whichever one I selected. No go! It seems to only see one slideshow and play only that one. Directly connecting a USB cable from my computer to the Digital Frame didn't work either. I have a lot of experience in such things, but I felt like an idiot trying different things to accomplish a simple task.

Yes. Its possible but its only for a firmware update and presentation from other display devices that support USB videos like some high-end mobile phones. You cannot use the port to view slideshows or other files eg movies loaded on to the drive.

There is no hot shoe for an external flash so im going to say probably not unless there is a way to do it via usb which I doubt because the usb seems to be data only. But the built-in flash is very good

The USB port is only for charging, I don't believe it will accept flash drives .

Yes you can. However, it might not if you format the thumb drive to a different format. e.g. FAT32 versus NTFS or whatever?

It does not have a built in cd or dvd drive, most ultraportables do not. You can connect and external drive through the usb port.

It does have a USB port, this should allow you to use a backpack USB DVD / cd drive. I have used an external HD without problems.

The frame will take USB flash drives, SD/SDHC cards. Any JPEG, MPEG-4/AVI files and MP3 files.

This will work fine just like any other external USB drive. If you don't want it formatted as NTFS, it can be easily formatted as FAT32 or whatever your need is.

No, there is not a USB port. I don't know why someone answered yes. This is an extremely basic DVD player... it works well, but it's basic and only has jacks to connect to your TV.

Thanks, I'll look into how that is done. Also, can a flashdrive handle a program this large or only just files?

I used an SD card plugged into my computer and downloaded pictures to that and then just slide the sd card into the frame in the appropriate slot. It also has a slot for a thumb drive but the frame itself has very little internal memory so you need an external source.

Yes you can except, you need use one that does not require power, some uSB Drives require more power and won't work. U can use the micro sd or the regular SD card, it should work fine.

I havent plugged a flash drive into it. I believe the usb on it is only for power ( thats all ive used it for and when I plug my phone in, it doesn't give me the option to access it any other way.).. its a Bluetooth radio transmitter..
