CONNECTING THE CAMERA TO A COMPUTER

A fully charged battery should be used when the camera is connected to a computer. The AC
adapter (sold separately) is recommended over the use of batteries. For users with Windows 98,
read the section on how to install the necessary driver before connecting the camera to a computer.
1. Confirm the data-transfer option in section 1 of the setup menu is set
to "Data storage" (p. 102). Turn the camera off.
2. Start up the computer. The computer must be on before connecting
the camera.
3. Slide open the video out / USB port cover. Attach the smaller plug of
the USB cable to the camera. The plug should be firmly attached.
4. Attach the other end of the USB cable to the computer's USB port.
The plug should be firmly attached. The camera should be
connected directly to the computer's USB port. Attaching the camera
to a USB hub may prevent proper operation.
5. With a memory card inserted, turn on the camera. A screen appears
to indicate the start of the connection process. When the connection
is made, the camera's monitors turn off. To change the card while the
camera is connected to a computer, see page 130.
With the camera properly connected to Windows XP or Mac OS X, a
window may open to download image data; follow the instructions in
the window. A drive icon, or volume, appears in My Computer or on the
desktop; the volume name varies with memory card and operating
system. If the volume does not appear, disconnect the camera, restart
the computer, and repeat the procedure.
