I have 11.5v and signed in as System Administrator

We have not used pictures in PowerChurch before, but would like to start. I have a family picture that is on my desktop, and I was just trying to drag and drop it into Maintain Family Mailing List, under picture. That is how I understood the manual to say we can do it. Well, it won't work. The picture is an IMG format. So I tried to import the picture. I was following the instructions from the manual, and I clicked on the Import button, then it says to navigate to the directory that contains the image you want to import. I chose Libraries System Folder and it says no items match your search. So then I tried the folder Kilpatrick Church, and it shows all of the folders. I click on the Desktop folder and it says, "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." I am signed in as the system administrator! What am I doing wrong? :wall:

I'm not sure a file of type .IMG will work, as I'm not sure there's a standard for that file type. Most cameras (and photo CDs from LifeTouch/Olan Mills) have the pics as .JPG format, which is standardized.

The error you're seeing is NOT from Powerchurch, but from Windows.
