Synchronizing and transferring to a computer
Setting up your camera for sync and transfer
Your camera can transfer pictures and videos to any computer running EasyShare
software. However, to ensure consistent organization of images and information,
your camera stores an internal identifier that allows it to synchronize with only one
computer. This identifier is established and sent to your camera through the sync &
transfer settings in EasyShare software.
The first time you connect to a computer using the USB cable, you are prompted to
select a sync & transfer option. Choose an option that best suits your situation (you
may change these options in EasyShare software later):
Yes, synchronize with my software
—recommended if installing on a single or
"primary" computer. Each time you connect your camera with a USB cable, recently
taken pictures and videos are automatically transferred to your computer. In addition,
images, albums, date & time, and address book information are updated on your
computer and on the camera according to the synchronization options you set in
EasyShare software.
No, only transfer my pictures
—recommended if installing on an additional, or
"secondary" computer. Each time you connect your camera with a USB cable,
pictures and videos are transferred to your computer. Synchronization is disabled.
NOTE: After the initial connection between your camera and your computer has been established,
synchronization or transfer is automatic when connecting with a USB cable (see
page 60
). When
connecting to EasyShare software over a Wi-Fi wireless network, the synchronization option is not
available, and transfer can only be performed using the Transfer feature on your camera (see
page 61
).
IMPORTANT:
To avoid unintentional deletion of pictures and videos, make sure
synchronization is disabled for additional computers on which you install
EasyShare software. Follow the prompts closely during software installation
and when connecting to your computer. Click the Help button in the Kodak
EasyShare software for details.
