Apple Quicktake 150 Camera Download Problem!

After loading the Apple Quicktake 150 and PhotoFlash software I am unable to download images from the camera. When I try to perform this operation a dialogue box appears and explains that I need to load additional scripts, but the 4 diskettes is the only software that came with the camera. Also I expected to see an icon of the Apple Quicktake 150 camera appear on my desktop. I am using a Apple Performa 5400/180. This technical problem is really bugging me right out! I need to use this old -school equipment for a retro project asap. Can anyone please help.

Apple Power PC Performa 5400/180, Mac OS 9.2.x

As you use OS 9 you may look at(Read Me):

Miscellaneous notes
QuickTake 150 software installs old version of QuickTime PowerPlug extension

Mac OS 8.6 includes a new version of the QuickTime PowerPlug for computers with PowerPC microprocessors. The QuickTake 150 Installer replaces it with an older version (version 2.0). To install the QuickTake 150 software, first remove the newer version of the QuickTime PowerPlug extension from the Extensions folder (within the System Folder) then install the QuickTake 150 software. After installation is finished, drag the PowerPlug file back to the Extensions folder replacing the older one.
QuickTake Image Access

When you are copying pictures from a QuickTake 100 or QuickTake 150 camera to your computer, make sure all the pictures you want have finished copying before you erase the contents of the camera. Previously, you couldn't erase the camera until copying was completed. Mac OS 8.6 can perform other tasks while copying files so it's possible to accidentally erase the pictures before they have been copied from the camera. You cannot recover a picture once it is erased from the camera."
