FireWire CameraMate
I insert my CompactFlash card into the FireWire CameraMate connected to my Mac
and I get a message, "This disk is unreadable by this computer. Do you want to
initialize the disk?" My only options are to "Initialize", or "Eject".
This error may appear if your File Exchange control panel is disabled. To verify that File
Exchange is enabled proceed with the following steps.
1. Click on the apple icon and Select
"Control Panels"
from the Apple Menu.
2. Select
"Extensions Manager"
from the Control Panels drop-down menu.
3. Scroll to the top of the Extensions Manager windows using the scroll bar on the far left
and make sure that you are looking in the Control Panels section of Extensions Manager.
4. Click inside the small square box to the left of the File Exchange listing. This will place
an X in the small square box also enabling the Control Panel.
5. Restart the computer by clicking the
"Restart"
button located at the bottom of the
Extensions Manager window.
I can see the images on my CompactFlash card, but how do I download my images
to my computer?
PC Compatible:
Images and data can be downloaded or transferred to your computer using basic
Windows file transfer techniques. Two of such techniques are drag and drop as well as
copy and paste.
For information on drag and drop as well as copy and paste, please refer to your windows
help file under the "Start" button located in the lower left corner of your Windows desktop.
Once you have opened "Windows Help", begin by clicking on the
"Index"
tab. This will
display the contents of the "Windows Help". Now scroll down to and double click on
"copying files, folders".
Macintosh:
When a card is mounted, it can be used in the same fashion a floppy or removable disk.
Double-click on the icon to open its respective file window. Once you have opened the
file window, holding down the option key, drag and drop the desired images from the
CompactFlash to a location of your choice.
