 If you use “Windows 98/98SE/Me”, 
download “QuickTime 6.5.2 for Windows” 
from the following site, and install it.
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
quicktime652forwindows.html
 This software is installed as standard on a 
“Macintosh OS”.
∫Folder Composition
Folders are displayed as shown in the 
following illustration. The data for up to 999 pictures recorded 
by the camera can be included in 1 folder. 
If the number of pictures exceeds 999, 
another folder is created.
 To reset the file number or the folder 
number, select [NO.RESET] in the 
[SETUP] menu.
∫Conditions under which a different 
folder number is used
In the following cases, the picture is not 
recorded in the same folder as the 
previously recorded picture. It is recorded 
in a folder with a new number. 
1When the folder just recorded to 
contains a picture file with the number 
999 in it (example: P1000999.JPG).
2When the card just recorded to 
contains, for example, a folder with the 
number 100 [100_PANA] in it and that 
card is removed and replaced with a 
card that has a folder with the number 
100 in it recorded by a camera from a 
different maker (100XXXXX, with 
XXXXX being the name of the maker) 
and then a picture is recorded.
3When recording after selecting 
[NO.RESET] from the [SETUP] menu. 
(Pictures will be recorded to a new 
folder with a number sequential to the 
folder recorded to immediately before. 
By using [NO.RESET] on a card that 
does not contain folders or pictures, 
such as one just formatted, the folder 
number can be reset to 100.)
∫About the PTP connection
If the OS is “Windows XP”, “Windows Vista” 
or “Mac OS X”, you can connect in PTP 
mode if you set the camera to [ ] mode 
and then connect to your PC.
Pictures can only be read on the camera. 
They cannot be written to a card or deleted.
 When there are 1000 or more pictures on 
a card, the pictures may not be imported.
 Do not use any other USB connection 
cables except the supplied one.
 Do not disconnect the USB connection 
cable while [ACCESS] is displayed. 1Folder number

 When there are many pictures on the 
built-in memory or the card, it may take 
some time to transfer them.
 You may not be able to play back motion 
pictures on the built-in memory or the card 
correctly when the camera is connected to 
a PC. Import the motion picture files to the 
PC and then play them back.

If battery power is exhausted while the 
camera and the PC are communicating, the 
recorded data may be damaged. When you 
connect the camera to the PC, use a battery 
with sufficient battery power or the AC 
adaptor (DMW-AC5PP; optional).
 If the remaining battery power becomes 
low while the camera and the PC are 
communicating, the status indicator blinks 
and the alarm beeps. In this case, stop 
the communication at once on the PC.
When connecting the camera to a 
“Windows 2000” OS PC with the USB 
connection cable, do not replace the 
card while the camera and the PC are 
connected. The information on the card 
may be damaged. Use “Safely Remove 
Hardware” in the task tray on your PC 
when replacing the card. 
 Pictures edited or rotated with a PC may 
be displayed in black in playback mode, 
multi playback and calendar playback.

Read the operating instructions for the PC. If a card is not inserted when the camera 
is connected to the PC, you can access 
the picture on the built-in memory. If a 
card is inserted, you can access the 
picture data on it. (If the camera is 
connected in clipboard mode, the built-in 
memory data is displayed even if a card is 
inserted.)
 You cannot switch between the built-in 
memory and the card while the camera is 
connected to the PC. When you want to 
switch between the built-in memory and 
the card, disconnect the USB connection 
cable, insert (or remove) the card and 
then connect the USB connection cable to 
the PC again.
 The message [PLEASE RE-CONNECT 
THE PRINTER.] appears if you change 
the mode dial to print mode [ ] while this unit is connected to a PC. If 
connecting the printer again, change the 
mode to a mode other than [ ] and then 
check that no data is being transferred. 
[ACCESS] appears on the LCD monitor of 
this unit while data is being transferred.)
