Toshiba FlashAir W-04 64 GB SDXC Class 10 Memory Card

Using this with a Nikon D810 to transfer photos to my ipad with Shuttersnitch app. Gives me the ability to review photos on a much larger screen than my camera lcd. JPGs transfer quickly, usually about 3-5 seconds. I do not transfer raw files so I don't know how long that would take. The only downside to this product is the configuration software and the lack of instructions. I downloaded the software on my laptop to configure the card as it did not work for me directly out of the box at least with the Nikon D810. I finally figured out that I needed to enable the Eyefi Connected feature and then it worked perfectly. If your using it with an Ipad or Iphone you will need to download the Toshiba Flashair App. The ipad will not connect to the card wifi through the app but must be connected in your wifi settings just like you would connect to any other wifi connection

I use this card in my Nikon D3100. I couldn’t get it to work at first. When I ran the FlashAir app on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, the app said it couldn’t find the card. After a lot of Googling I found out that I needed to set all my camera’s auto-off settings to the maximum time. I did so; still no luck. Then It told me to manually connect to the card with the password 12345678. So I went to my phone Wi-Fi settings, and I did find FlashAirxxxxxx (x=alphanumeric character). When I tried to connect, I was told that I had the wrong password!So I Googled some more and found the FlashAir configuration tool for the Mac. I downloaded this and then used a USB card reader to connect the card directly to my MacBook Pro. Using this, I changed the password to 12345678. Then I was able to successfully connect my iPhone to the FlashAir card.I reinserted the card into my Nikon. Next, with the FlashAir app running on my phone, I took a photograph with the Nikon. However, nothing showed up in the FlashAir app on my phone. So I tried disconnecting the phone from the FlashAir card by going back to the settings on my phone and connected the phone back to my regular Wi-Fi network. When I then reconnected the phone to the FlashAir card’s network, all the photographs I had taken on the Nikon showed up in the FlashAir app on my phone as well as in Photos on the iPhone. So my take is that the card works well for my purposes. I just have to wait to connect my phone to the card until after I’m finished shooting with the Nikon, apparently the photos don’t come across to the phone in real time as they’re being taken.

Supporting Apple Photo with FlashAirSince many Amazon reviews of FlashAir describe problems and frustrations getting going with this product, I'm going to describe how I was able to make this work with Apple's Photo App.The FlashAir online info/help provided with FlashAir apps is confusing in part because their card is quite versatile, so the instructions don't zero in on what most people would want to do: transfer pictures from their camera to their Photos app on a smart device, Mac or PC.My goal was to have photos I take with a Fuji X100S camera automatically transfer to the Photo app. (By the way, if your camera uses SD memory storage cards, it should work fine with FlashAir. No need to worry about whether it would work with a Canon or Pentax, etc.)[Initially I tried using Toshiba's FlashAir for Mac applications - not recommended. Using FlashAir on a smart device is much more of a "turn-key" operation than with a Mac.]FlashAir APP (iPhone/iPad)Install the Toshiba's FlashAir app from Apple's App store.Once the FlashAir app is installed on your device, try this quick test:1. Insert the FlashAir SD into your camera2. Turn camera on3. Take test photo 4. Go to Settings > Wifi on your device5. Switch to the FlashAir SSID device name (see below, if you want to adjust the name of the device). 6. Select the FlashAir app on your iPhone7. In the app select the FlashAir tab (rather than the "Device" tab) 8. If a) your camera is powered on and b) there is a photo on your FlashAir SD and c) your Wifi is set to your FlashAir device, thumbnails of your photo(s) should appear.9. Open your Photos app and look for your photo. Ideally it will be there, just like that!Alternatively, if you have several pictures and want to transfer just a subset, you can mark the photos you want to download to your Photo App: simply click the down arrow in the left-hand corner of each photo's thumbnail. Another option: click on the white checkmark in the upper right of the FlashAir app's screen. Click-select the photos you want transferred to Photos or chose Select All.FlashAir App SettingsThe FlashAir app offers configuration options through a pop-up menu accessible from the lower-left of the screen. Here is a brief description of these configuration options and how I set them:INFO displays the SSID name, free space on the SD and version number.APPLICATION SETTINGS offer a variety of options:BASIC:I selected Display Date, Square Thumbnail, Auto reload, Convert RAW to JPEG. Did not select Display RAW thumbnails.SYSTEM SPECIFIC:I selected a Photos album name of FlashAir and AutoSave of photos/videos.There is also an option to clear the cache. Might be useful in case you are trying to transfer many photos.FlashAir SETTINGSSSID / PASSWORD. You can set or change the FlashAir's SSID and/or password.Example:SSID: FlashAirPassword: your_passwordPASSTHRU. You can turn on "Internet passthru mode" by entering the SSID and password of your local wifi access.Example:SSID: myHouseWifiPassword: myHouseWifi_PasswordWhen passthru is enabled you can connect to the Internet while FlashAir is your active wifi SSID device. (Recommended if you want to upload photos to share sites or otherwise access the Internet during the upload process.)TIMEOUT. By default the Wifi-part of the FlashAir SSID activates for five minutes when your camera is switched on. You can disable auto-on (least draining to the camera's battery) or adjust auto-timeout to anything from 1 to 30 minutes. Or you can disable auto-timeout entirely.EyeFi CONNECTION FEATURE. You can activate the EyeFi connection option. (Recommended.)CELLULAR DATA+WiFi. You can activate Cellular Data+WiFi Mode. This allows you to access the Internet via cellular data. (Recommended; requires a MASTERCODE to be set.)WebDAV. You can activate the FlashAir WebDAV (I didn't do this).MASTERCODE. You can set or change the FlashAir drive MASTERCODE. (Recommended.)If you didn't get automatic download of your photo the first time, try it again after making the above adjustments.Good luck!PS: If you figure out how to make FlashAir work directly from a camera to the Mac Photos app, please post!

I bought this to replace the late-great Eye-fi card that I was still using for my DSLR until the computer driving it died. I incorrectly assumed that it would be pretty much the same product. Nope. Toshiba recently sold this division or spun it off and the result makes the Eye-Fi fiasco seem tame. The instructions are half english/half Chinese and the translationis worse than awful. The links don't work the way they should. The link referenced in the instructions takes you to a program that updates the card but does not provide options for settings (i.e. v4.004). You can find an earlier version of the software that allows you to save settings, but the version mismatch must cause problems because the program hangs indefinitely and must be killed. Another version expects your PC to be connected to your network wirelessly for some reason and stops because it isn't. If these products are intended for US markets, somebody really needs to develop the software and manuals so they can actually be used to make the card work. I've spent about 2 hours on this so far without getting far enough to confirm that the card sees my wireless network...let alone will save images to a hard drive or cloud service. And if you are thinking this is a fluke, it may be, but I am an IT professional with over 20 years of experience with this type of technology. I will keep messing with it but so far it is a very expensive non-wireless SD card.
