When the digital camera is turned on and connected to your computer, it is considered to be

them from the “Removable disk” (“untitled” or “unlabeled” disk on a Macintosh) to your
computer hard drive.
Windows
Open the “removable disk” and double click on the DCIM / DSCIM folder to open it to find
more folders. Your images are inside these folder(s). Select the desired still images or video
clips, and then choose “Copy” from the “Edit” menu. Open the destination location (folder)
and choose “Paste” from the “Edit” menu. You may also drag and drop image files from the
digital camera to a desired location.
Macintosh
Open the “untitled” disk icon, and the destination location on your hard disk. Drag and drop
from the digital camera to the desired destination.
