Olympus website FAQ: I am aMac user. What software can I use to view my images and movies on my computer?


The [ib] software bundled with this camera is not compatible with Macintosh operating systems. Mac users who wish to transfer their images and movies to a Mac for viewing, editing and sharing have two options:


Connect the camera to the computer using the camera's bundled USB cable, and then manually transfer your files to the computer using standard copy/paste or drag and drop techniques. Once the files are on your computer, you can use any third-party application of your choice to view, edit and share them.After transferring data there is no efficient way to copy to a file. The folder provides a "duplicate" option and then it "copies" items to "desktop" by default.



===============


After I transfer the data the unnamed folder gives me the option to "duplicate". When I do this the data, by default, "copies" to the desktop.

I am unable to retrieve and locate the actual digital photos and videos, however. I have tried transferring data before and was able to locate it in the folder,

but this time I am not locating it.


My O.S. would not allow me to install the Olympus software needed.
