You get an error message when you try to transfer your pictures from the
camera to your Macintosh.
❙ Make sure the cable is connected correctly, as described on 1.
❙ Make sure the camera is turned on and the batteries have enough
power.
❙ Open the Chooser (or Network Control Panel) and make sure
AppleTalk is inactive.
❙ Check the computer connection settings in your PhotoPC software.
You may need to change the settings for the Port and Speed as
described on page 4.
❙ If you’re using a PowerBook Duo,™ open the PowerBook Setup
Control Panel and make sure it’s set to Standard mode. Then restart
your Macintosh.
Your pictures transfer too slowly from the camera to your Macintosh,
and the transfer process uses up your batteries too quickly.
❙ Try increasing your port speed. Using your PhotoPC Settings
software, you can choose the fastest speed that works on your
Macintosh, up to 57,600 baud. See pages 5-4 to 5-5 for more
information.
You are unable to copy and paste or import your photo into a document.
❙ Try increasing your virtual memory. For example, if you have
8MB RAM, increase your virtual memory to 16MB. You can do
this in the Memory Control Panel.
❙ Increase the memory allocation for your word processor or other
software by following these steps:
1
Click the software icon to select it.
2
Choose Get Info from the File menu to find the application’s
memory allocation settings.
3
Increase the memory to 4000K or 5000K.

extensions might conflict with either of the software applications.
