Dear Huiying, my first guess is that you copied the files onto an external hard drive which was formatted for Windows (with vfat). If you tried to read the images from the same drive can confuse Linux systems, because Linux is literate, whereas vfat does not distinguish between capital and lower case letters. If that's a possible reason try copying the images to a local drive and check the permissions (which also often get screwed up by copying files to and fro vfat).
