a new disc icon will appear in Windows Explorer (under “My Computer”) as a

new “Removable Disc” after plugging in the USB cable from the Imageview. Mac

users will see the new disc device appear on their desktop. Clicking on the new

disc icon will show the contents, a folder named “DCIM.” The image folder inside

this contains your photos, stored as JPEGs (.jpg file format). They may then be

viewed, edited, renamed and saved using any photo or graphics software that

accepts .jpg files.

After you have copied or opened and saved the photo files to your computers

hard drive, you may disconnect the Imageview camera (NEVER disconnect

the camera while files are still being transferred to your computer.) Before

disconnecting, you should “eject” or stop the "removable disc" representing

the camera to avoid an error message (not necessary with Windows XP or later

OS).
