 | | Keep those memories safe! | The PhotoSafe Backup System helps you backup all of their photos onto CD or DVD. Archiving prevents the loss of valuable photos from hardware memory failure, or other computer mishaps, such as viruses. And PhotoSafe makes it simple by remembering which photos have already been backed-up on CD, and which photos are new. PhotoRecovery
PhotoRecovery is a straightforward application that recovers images, movies, and sound files from all types of digital media. Whether it's Memory Sticks, SmartMedia, CompactFlash, MicroDrives, Secure Digital Cards, Multimedia Chips, or floppy disks and most other forms of digital film, you simply insert your digital film into the reader, and run PhotoRecovery. Pictures are instantly saved to your computer. What's in the box:

 major disappointment March 15, 2008
Phillip M. Feldman (Santa Barbara, CA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Corel acquired Photo Album 6 from JASC and then promptly abandoned development, leaving a host of unresolved problems, ranging in severity from annoying to quite serious. Here are just a few examples:
1. The "View/Sort Thumbnails" setting is not remembered, i.e., if you want to see thumbnails sorted by name, you must specify this every time you open the application.
2. Photo Album 6 settings sometimes get corrupted. Corel's only solution for this is to open the "Application Data" folder for the current user and then delete the "Corel Photo Album" folder. This resets the database, which has several undesirable side effects, e.g., all keywords and descriptions are lost, and the program forgets all favorite folder selections.
3. There is no good mechanism for transferring the database from one computer to another. In particular, there is no way to merge two databases together, i.e., one database must overwrite the other.
4. There is no way to control the text size in menus. In particular, there is no way to increase the text size in the "Favorite Folders" or "All Folders" lists, a significant problem for users with poor vision.
Given the length of time that has elapsed, it has become clear that these and hundreds of other problems with Photo Album will never be fixed.
On top of all this, Corel technical support is surly and unhelpful.
I am now looking for a suitable alternative to replace this application.
 So Far, Not So Good December 30, 2007

I purchased this product new for my mom and sister-in-law with no grand expectations about what I had ordered. Imagine my surprise then when one of the products arrived in a re-used bubble envelope (folded inside-out with the previous customer's name in the return address line) and the other in a regular USPS Priority Mail box. If this was the only issue, I would not have bothered writing a review but the CD itself came in an unmarked paper envelope without any packaging, leading me to wonder if this product was really new.
I have come to expect better of Amazon and do not think the vendor and distributor should be showing a picture of a software package in promoting this item since what you see is not what you get.
As for the merits of this product, the jury is still out but so far its seller and Amazon have left a bad first impression.

 An OK photo tool for your computer. May 6, 2007

This software works well for the job intended.
Only complaint I have is that it has an annoying habit of loading on your computer if you open any other software that has pictures, such as a memory stick, etc., then you have to turn Corel off.
Probably a way to stop that, but I haven't taken time to do it yet.
 Basic program - prefer Picasa (free) April 12, 2007

This is a very basic picture program. I find myself using Google's Picasa
(which is free) much more often than this. I have not had any problems
with it though.
