I'm giving digital frames as Christmas gifts to relatives and I'm wanting to add pictures already on my computer to the SD memory card that will be included with the frame. I have a Kodak camera and tried figuring out a way to transfer them back to the camera with the memory card in the camera but this is not working. Please help!!!

What you are trying to do is not really possible. What you need to do is to buy an SD (or multi) card reader. You then plug your memory card into the reader and then plug the reader into your computer's USB port. Go to 'My Computer'...it will show up as a removable drive. You can then easily copy & paste/drag & drop your images, video, mp3s to the memory card. Voila!

If you are reading your SD card on your computer from a card reader then your SD card should show as an addtitional removable drive in 'My Computer' & you can just drag & drop or copy & paste from one folder / drive to the other. If it's not showing as an additional removable drive then your card reader isn't reading the SD card.
If your SD card is still in your camera then with the camera plugged into the computer just double click on your camera icon in 'My Computer' & then you can do the same as above If none of this works, because of your camera then you could always buy a USB multi-card reader from Jessops (UK) for about £15. Hope this helps :-)

If you have a lap top with a PCMCIA slot, then you can get an adapter for about $10.00 that will facilitate plugging the card in. The computer will recognize it as a drive, you can then write to it just like any other storage device. Otherwise there should be some instructions with the digital frame on how to load it.

If your SD card is not showing up as a drive when you plug in your camera through the USB slot, then you are using a transfer program of some sort that does not support that feature. Check if your camera is interfacing like a storage card by seeing if it shows up in My Computer, if not, your best bet would be to get a USB SD adapter (Card Reader) that would allow you to plug in your SD card directly without your camera. Also note that most cameras store its photos in a folder such as "DCIM" or a subfolder of it. Be sure also that the digital frames can read subdirectories too or uses the same directories, as some devices may not be smart enough to scan subdirectories if the pictures are not in the root directory of the card.

The memory card is just like any other drive. Make sure it's formatted, then use (START, COMPUTER) bring up the drive the card is (A:,B: or whatever the letter is of the memory card, and drag and drop the photo files to the card. Just make sure you don't exceed the storage capacity of the card. Also make sure the photos are saved right side up, unless the digital photo frame has a "rotate" feature. You can also format the card with your computer (formatting erases everything on the card/drive though). Just right click on the letter (A:,B:, etc.) and left click on FORMAT. Good Luck!

you need a driver for your kodak (one should have been supplied with the camera) if not, then you need a card reader (much easier to stick the SD card in the reader, copy and paste (or drag and drop) what you want from pc to sd card)
(also make sure that your kodak is not set to internal memory)

Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. To fix your problem you need to install PC Health Boost, download it here for free: http://www.healthboostpc.com

OK first thing you need to do is open you folder with you pics in it should be in my docs or my pictures. Now open another window you can do this under the start button then the search button. Press the little folder with the arrow comming out of it. Now you should see a bunch of folders click the one that says my computer. in there there should be a location that says removable drive (f:) or some thing similar. If not you need to put in you SD card again. once you find it open that. Now you can move both folders side by side and drag and drop the files you want. Some times the SD card will already be segmented with different folder on it like movies pictures music depending on what you are using it on. I hope this works good luck.
