6.3 Formatting on a Mac OS X computer
On Mac OS X the formatting cannot be done directly in the finder but is
easily done inside the Disk Utility located in the Applications > Utilities
folder.
Open the Disk utility and select the Disk (not just the partition, but the
entire disk). Select the Erase panel as shown above, and select MS-
DOS File System. Give the disk a name and click on Erase to erase and
format the entire disk for use with the P+ back.
Choose “Options” in the formatting dialog to specify a complete and
thorough formatting of the media.
6.4 Formatting on a Windows computer
Insert the CF-card in the card reader, and select the drive when it mounts
in “My computer” or in the Explorer. Right click on the drive and select
“Format” from the pop-up menu.
Select FAT32 or FAT16 from the “File System” pop-up.
Provide the card a name and click Start to format the card.
To specify a complete and thorough formatting of the media resetting
all to zeros, do not enable the quick format option.
6.5 Disabling iPhoto Autostart (Mac OS X)
iPhoto Autostart can be disabled in the Mac system preference.
Select “CD’s & DVD’s” and change the setting for “Picture CD” to either
“Ignore” or point it to the Capture One application you are using.
