Mobile devices and computers aren’t always as compatible as we might like. Take transferring photos, for instance. Older computers and laptops use USB Type-A ports, which have been the standard port for years.

Times change. Newer model computers, including MacBooks, now use USB Type-C ports. Phones and mobile devices are also switching to the new Type-C connections, which are faster, and best of all, fit into the port no matter which side of the USB is upright.

Unfortunately, this change in USB styles comes with a serious problem—transferring photos from older devices to new ones just got a lot more complicated. This was an issue we couldn’t ignore.

Introducing the Keeper Connector

The Keeper Connector is a USB Type-C converter designed to give Picture Keeper drives the ability to backup and transfer photos to and from devices with Type-C USB ports. Simply connect the Keeper Connector to your existing Picture Keeper drive, plug it into a Type-C USB port, and the Picture Keeper backup software will get to work.

Technology changes quickly. With the Keeper Connector, you can keep using your existing Type-A USB Picture Keeper drive to backup, store, and restore your valuable files and photos on old and new computers and mobile devices.
