Solved: Uploading photos from Sony Xperia Z1 Compact.

Anonymous · ‎31-01-2015

Hi All. when uploading photos to my laptop from my Sony Xperia Z1 compact it uploads each photo several times in different sizes, from thumbnail to full screen, dose anyone else have this problem and if so how do I stop it. Answers in easy to understand terms please.

That's why, it's copying over everything picturewise, there are some folders which have the thumbnails in for quickloading in the gallery.
Best bet is to use pc companion or by manually opening folders to find the dcim folder and find the full images inside there.

Internal storage (or if set to use sd,external sd card) DCIM/100ANDRO is the full size picture folder.

That's what I thought too
