I have pictures on floppy discs from 2001-now I want to transfer them to CDs , but my computer won't.

Question

says " no ID found" and won't let me download.How can I get my pictures? Thanks!!

Answer 1

When you explore the floppy disk in windows explorer, do you see data on that drive or do you get an error?  I am assuming you still have a floppy drive.

Answer 2

Copy it to the computer then put it on the cd

Answer 3

idk i must say floppy disc are kinda foriegn now maybe if you go to a library computer you might from there if they are old enought but idk

Answer 4

What program are you using when you insert the floppy disc then try to use it at source material to burn a CD? Does the software support the image format the pictures are in?

One sidestep that might work with any program is to copy the images from the floppies to your hard drive, saving them in another format if necessary, then copy from hard drive to CD.  

Answer 5

Your floppy disk is really old and they really don't last long the maximum time is like 1 year so when you insert the floppy disk your computer won't detect it you can try it with other computers but my floppy disk only lasted one month so I don't see how your floppy disk can last 7 years

Answer 6

Go to Walgreens or Meijer or Kmart to their photo section and see if their equipment can transfer the pics.
