Adding photos and videos to your photo library

To add photos or videos to your photo library you have the following options:

Watch folders

Nokia Ovi Suite scans these folders regularly for new photos or videos and automatically adds them to your photo library.

These folders can only be on the local hard disks of the computer, not on an external hard drive or on a network drive. Scanning only takes place when Nokia Ovi Suite is running.

To add or remove watch folders, do the following:

  1. Select File > Add watch folders.

  2. Select the folders on your computer containing your photos and videos. If necessary, deselect the folders with the photos and videos you do not want to add to Nokia Ovi Suite. Click Add folder to add a photo or video folder that is not listed.

  3. Click OK.
