There are photos on the card.  Would you like to add these photos to your album?

The above message has been popping up about every 10 minutes if I close it.  Currently I have it minimized and thus out of the way ... 
By the way I do have photos already archived on an external drive that it seems to me referencing. However I do not want to add them into my Lite photo album.
