I have an Olympus FE-170 Camera and the camera card doesn't fit into the digital photo frame I have. What type of accessories do I need to buy to convert this? Thanks.
Transfer them to a card that fits.
Your olympus probably used xD cards is that correct? The photo frame probably has SD or compact flash. You’ll have to dump the photos to your computer, and then from there get them onto a card that the frame supports.
If your computer doesn’t have all the slots you need, you can buy a USB to compact flash or SD reader from staples or office depot for a few bucks.
The above answer is correct, you could transfer your XD card data to a compatible SD memory card.
Or, you could just get one of these XD to SD adaptors.

I use a similar adaptor to use my cellphone’s micro-SD cards in devices that read SD cards successfully.
Hope this helps.
