Sd card says write project olympus sz-12 - Cameras

All user (instruction) manuals from Olympus can be found on the Olympus website. I most of the time go to the USA site, because they are more generous in providing support.

With digital cameras there are no things like reset buttons or procedures. Just switching off and on, or removing the battery and reinserting it, will restart the camera like a cold boot from a computer.
When you touched the lens barrel, while it was moving, and the camera acts strange. Switch it of, remove the battery and the memory card. then reinsert them and switch on.

You don't need the Olympus software.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo management program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).
