Synchronizing and transferring to a computer

Setting up your camera for sync and transfer

Your camera can transfer pictures and videos to any computer running EasyShare
software. However, to ensure consistent organization of images and information, your
camera stores an internal identifier that allows it to synchronize with only one
computer. This identifier is established and sent to your camera through the sync &
transfer settings in EasyShare software.

The first time you connect to a computer, either with a USB cable or by wireless
transfer, you are prompted to choose a sync & transfer option. Pick an option that best
suits your situation (you may change these options in EasyShare software later):

Yes, synchronize with my software—recommended if installing on a single or
"primary" computer. Each time you connect your camera with a USB cable, recently
taken pictures and videos are automatically transferred to your computer. In addition,
images, albums, date & time, and address book information are updated on your
computer and on the camera according to the synchronization options you set in
EasyShare software.

No, only transfer my pictures—recommended if installing on an additional, or
"secondary" computer. Each time you connect your camera with a USB cable, pictures
and videos are transferred to your computer. Synchronization is disabled.

NOTE: After connecting your camera to your computer for the first time, synchronization or transfer is

automatic when connecting with a USB cable (see

page 54

). When connecting wirelessly,

synchronization or transfer occurs only by selecting these options on your camera (see

page 55

).

IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentional deletion of pictures and videos, make sure

synchronization is disabled for additional computers on which you install
EasyShare software. Follow the prompts closely during software installation
and when connecting to your computer. Click the Help button in the Kodak
EasyShare software for details.
