CAUTION
The Windows CD-ROM may also be required during installation. In this event, change CD-ROMs as directed by the on-screen instructions.
Do not format the Memory Card in the camera on the PC. Use the Memory Card with images taken by a FUJIFILM Digital camera.
B Connect the camera to your PC using the USB cable. ; USB socket
Refer to Software Installation (p.92, 94) the first time you connect the camera to your PC. Install the software first. Do not connect the camera to the PC before installing all the software.
CD-ROM (Software for FinePix)

C Press w for about 1 second to turn the camera on in Playback mode. D Set your PC.
In Windows, if FinePixViewer is already installed, the driver will be set automatically. No action is required.
Connecting to a PC CAUTION
FinePix J10 / FinePix J12 is compatible with PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol)/MTP (Media Transfer Protocol). A PTP/MTP-compatible camera is a camera that can recognize the PC and printer automatically when connected. Do not disconnect the USB cable (included) when the camera is communicating with a PC. If the USB cable (included) is disconnected during communication, the files on the Memory Card or internal memory may be damaged. In Mac OS X, you must set automatic setup the first time you connect the camera to your PC. When the camera and PC are exchanging data, the indicator lamp blinks alternately green and orange. Auto power off is disabled during USB connection. Before replacing the Memory Card, always disconnect the camera from the PC. The camera and PC may be exchanging data even when [Copying] disappears from your PC screen. Before disconnecting the USB cable (included), always check that the indicator lamp is off. Always use FinePixViewer to transfer images with voice memos to a PC. The cost of an Internet provider for connecting to the internet is the users responsibility. When using FinePixViewer to save images on a data server (network), FinePixViewer may not run as it would in a standalone PC environment.

Notes on the xD-Picture Card, the SD Memory Card and the Internal Memory
Z Handling Memory Card When inserting the Memory Card into the camera, hold the Memory Card straight as you push it in. Never remove the Memory Card or turn the camera off during data recording or erasing (Memory Card formatting) as this could be damaged to the Memory Card. The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with FinePix J10 / FinePix J12. The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when xDPicture Cards other than those manufactured by FUJIFILM are used. The Memory Card may feel warm when it is removed from the camera after taking pictures. This is normal. Do not put labels on the Memory Card. Peeling labels can cause the camera not to work properly. MEMO Type M and H of xD-Picture Card
Type M There are two types of Memory Card: standard type and Type M (containing M in the model number, such as DPC-M2GB). FinePix J10 / FinePix J12 is compatible with Type M. Type H Type H and M share the same compatibility. Usable USB drive Type H cannot be used with xD-Picture Card USB drive DPC-UD1, while Type M can.
Z Internal Memory Images held in the cameras internal memory may be corrupted or erased due to problems such as camera faults. Save your important data to another media (i.e., DVD-R, CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.). Data stored in the cameras internal memory cannot be guaranteed in the event that the camera is submitted for repairs. When the camera is repaired, any data stored in the cameras internal memory is subject to checking by the repairer. Z Using Memory Card or Internal Memory with a PC When taking pictures using a Memory Card or internal memory that has been used on a PC, reformat the Memory Card using your camera. When formatting, a directory (folder) is created. Image data is then recorded in this directory. Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file names on the Memory Card or internal memory because this will make it impossible to use the Memory Card or internal memory in your camera. Always use the camera to erase image data. To edit image data, copy or transfer the image data to the PC and edit the copied or transferred data.
