[Digikam-users] Import photos from USB storage device

[Ross Lansdell]

DK 3.1 installed on Kubuntu 12.04.1

Is there a limit to the size of the USB device?
DK freezes when I attempt to import about 30GB from my USB HDD, (ADATA
Classic CH94 596.2GB).

When I try to terminate the Import I get a popup:

The window "Images on USB Disk "ADATA CH94" (596.2 GiB) – digiKam" is not
responding. It belongs to the application digikam (Process ID = 3858,
hostname = localhost).
Do you wish to terminate the application process including all of its child
windows?
Any unsaved data will be lost.

You can guess what happens next!

If I use a 16GB USB stick all the images on it are discovered fine and I
can select and download as required.

I am trying to migrate from Picasa to Digikam.

It's driving me nuts!
