WaRNiNG: Make sure you download any picture from your camera before you remove the
batteries from the camera.
(NEVER disconnect the camera while files are still being transferred to your computer.) Before disconnecting,
you may need to “eject” or stop the removable disc representing the camera to avoid an error message on
computers running Windows 2000 or Mac OS. After the photos are transferred to your hard drive, you can
disconnect the camera. Windows 2000 may produce a screen warning that you have disconnected a USB device
without stopping or ejecting the “disk” first (your photo files will not be harmed). If you’re using a Mac (OS9 or
OSX), you should “eject” the “disk” that represents the camera on the desktop before disconnecting.
5. You’re now ready to open the photo files in any photo editing software. Just use File>Open and go to the
folder where you stored the photos earlier. It is also possible to open and work with your photos directly from the
ImageView while it is still connected.If you choose to work this way, from a connected camera, be sure that you
save the photo (when you are done editing) to your hard drive, and not the camera’s memory or card.
6. If you are new to photo editing on a computer, consult your software’s Help menu for tips on using its features.
Along with adjusting the brightness, contrast, sharpness and color of your photos, you can resize the photo to
fit the paper if you are printing, or save a smaller, low or medium resolution version for email or inserting into
documents. When you are ready to save your edited file, you may want to use “Save As” and give it a more
descriptive name than “IMG___”. Doing this also preserves the original file as a backup to reopen and re-edit
later. Make sure you have successfully transferred all the photos you wanted to save before using “Delete All” on
your camera to make room for new images.
