NOTE:

If you are installing the product using a USB connection, do not connect the USB cable to the

product and the computer before you install the software. Connecting the USB cable will cause the Mac
OS X to automatically install the product, but the installation will be faulty. You must then uninstall the
product, disconnect the USB cable, reinstall the software from the product CD-ROM, and reconnect the
USB cable when the software prompts you.
