4.Turn off the camera and 
then use the USB cable 
that comes with the 
camera to connect it to 
your Macintosh.
• The camera does not 
draw power over the USB 
cable. Make sure the 
camera’s battery is 
sufficiently charged 
before connecting.
• Make sure that you insert 
the cable connector into 
the USB/AV port until you 
feel it click securely into 
place. Failure to insert 
the connector fully can 
result in poor 
communication or 
malfunction.
• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you 
still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as 
shown in the illustration.
• When connecting the USB cable to a USB port, make 
sure you align the connector correctly with the port.
• Your computer may not be able to recognize the camera 
if you connect via a USB hub. Always connect directly to the computer’s USB 
port.
5.Turn on the camera.
The camera’s back lamp will light green at this time. In this mode, your Macintosh 
recognizes the memory card loaded in the camera (or the camera’s built-in 
memory if it does not have a memory card loaded) as a drive. The appearance of 
the drive icon depends on the Mac OS version you are using.
6.Double-click the camera’s drive icon.
7.Drag the “DCIM” folder to the folder to which you want to copy it.

8.After the copy operation is complete, drag the drive icon to Trash.
9.On the camera, press [ON/OFF] (Power) to turn off the camera. After 
making sure that the green back lamp is unlit, disconnect the camera 
from the computer.
.To view copied images
1.Double-click the camera’s drive icon.
2.Double-click the “DCIM” folder to open it.
3.Double-click the folder that contains the images you want to view.
4.Double-click the image file you want to view.
• For information about file names, see “Memory Folder Structure” on page 131.
• An image that was rotated on the camera will be displayed on your Macintosh 
screen in its original (unrotated) orientation.
IMPORTANT!
• Never unplug the USB cable, or operate the camera while viewing or storing 
images. Doing so can cause data to become corrupted. Never use your computer to modify, delete, move, or rename any image files 
that are in the camera’s built-in memory or on its memory card.
Doing so can cause problems with the camera’s image management data, which 
will make it impossible to play back images on the camera and can drastically alter 
remaining memory capacity. Whenever you want to modify, delete, move, or 
rename an image, do so only on images that are stored on your computer.

• Certain settings and other installed software may interfere with proper playback of 
movies.
.Movie Playback Precautions
Proper movie playback may not be possible on some Macintosh models. If you 
experience problems, try the following.
– Change the movie image quality setting to “STD” or “LP”.
– Upgrade to the latest version of QuickTime.
