Well I don't know why the N73 saved the photos in bitmap format. Maybe they don't work on Macs (though I doubt it).

Bitmap is a Microsoft format for images, and is uncompressed, so you do get huge file sizes as well. JPEG is the standard file type for photos and allows them to be saved at a reasonable size.

If all else fails, just use a cable or card reader.

Just send the bitmap image to MS paint click file save as and then change it to Jpeg.
