--- You wrote: It even states in the manual, software launches automatically when connected cam is powered on "in Windows only". Mac requires manual launch of software. Clearly this lame-o software was parsed over to the Mac by a bunch of Windows programmers. Even the gui graphics have that amature Windows look about them. I will post results with the card reader. Thanks again, Thomas --- end of quote --- Funny thing. I've been using the Olympus Camedia software for several years just as a way of sorting photos, though I don't have an Olympus camera anymore. It may be an older version than you are using. But the neat thing about the Camedia software is that the display supports drop and drag, which the Canon and Minolta, whose cameras I've had, do not.
In other words, if you drag a drawer to the Camedia icon (or an alias of it which you can leave on the desktop,) it will open and display the images in that drawer. Then, if you want to edit one of the images, you simply drag it to the Photoshop icon (or other graphics editing program that supports icon drop and drag) and Photoshop will run and load that photo. If I want to move pictures from the displayed drawer to another, I just select them and drag them to the new drawer, from within the Camedia window. That's how drop and drag works and I find it very convenient. I don't know why Minolta and Canon don't have it in their display/editing software. Maybe others do. I'm using a Canon s50 now, which I love, but I find the software supplied is awkward when trying to connect to the camera, either in os 9 or X. I use a card reader to download photos, as may others have suggested. It's fast, easy and clean. Rich -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
