I have an xd card but I unknowingly took pictures with the xd card not in my camera. So now I am stuck with pictures.. but no way to get them onto my camera because I lost my usb cord. Is there any possible way to get the pictures on my camera onto the xd card?

I know exact what you're asking because I also own this camera.
According to p80 of the advance manual, go to menu > [mode menu] > [card] > [backup] > [yes]
This will backup the camera's internal memory to the xD card. You can then download the pictures from the xD card using a USB card reader.
The advance manual can be downloaded from Olympus's support website:

I started to read other peoples' answers and got sick after reading their answers.. they didnt really begin to answer your question.. and then one said he didnt understand. ANYWAY.. you can go through Olympus' website. I worked at Circuit City and now I'm at Best Buy... and rarely will you find the USB for a camera. A lot of them, especially Kodak and Sony, make the USBs specifically for their cameras and the only way to get them is to go through them. I have a Kodak, I lost the USB and the Charger. I got lucky and found a dock for 50 bucks to charge the battery. And also came with a USB to hook up to the dock, then to the computer. Just look at Olympus' website and type in your cam. Good luck!!!

The best way is to buy or find a XD card reader. This can be anything like another camera that can read XD, there are even some printers that read XD cards. They sell stand alone card readers at Wal-Mart for around 15 dollars. With a card reader you can transfer them on to your card, PC, or another card, just like you would a floppy disk.
Also you can take your card to a photo processing place, like Walgreen's or Wal-Mart and order a photo CD. It's also handy to do this on trip when you run out of space on your card.

HUH? your question really doesnet make much sense. If you did not have your card in the camera when you took the photos, what exactly did they record on? Likely the didnt take at all unless you can see them...Card readers are the best way to download photos since they do not eat up your camera batteries
