Fuji 2650, another question?

You didn't say if you went thru the FinePix installation -- and if so, did
it tell you it succeeded, etc.? Are you using Windows of some kind? If so,
check Start..Control Panel..Add or Remove Programs and see if the Fuji
software is listed. If not, you didn't install successfully so try again.
If it is listed, do an uninstall, reboot, install and reboot. You MUST
follow the software installation procedures EXACTLY .. i.e. read everything,
and follow instructions to the letter.

Another problem may be that you do NOT have your USB ports enabled even
thought your software is installed properly. To see if you do have USB
ports active, go to control panel again and open the "System" icon. Not
knowing what version of Windows you have (IF you do have windows), I can't
really tell you the exact steps, but you can check to see if the USB
hardware is enabled, functioning, etc.

BTW, you do not need the entire Finepix software suite to actually get your
pictures into the windows PC. All you need is the USB device drivers for
the camera and simply treat it like an external removable storage device so
you can copy, move, etc. like any other files on your hard disk.

Just a thought, my kodak requires that I turn the camera on before it will open the software to download the pics.

Did you use the switch on the camera that establishes the connection with
the computer? I got my son a 2650 for Christmas, I think that's what he had
to do to get it to talk to the computer. After that XP pops up with the
camera wizard dialogue.
...

I have unistalled & reinstalled everything...i get no dialog box to ask me
what to do. I plug in the camera & it does nothing. I have to open Finepix
software, navigate to the Fuji camera, open all the subfolders, then it will
transfer. It will stop until i scroll down the sidebar of the Finepix
viewer, then it will finish. The manual states a lot of things that jsut are
not happenning here. Am ready to go & get a Kodak.

Thank you,
Doc.

PS: Anyone have the Canon A40, that was my other choice?

Are you telling the camera to establish a connection? I got my son a 2650
for Christmas. It works just great. He plugs in the camera to the Fuji USB
connector, turns the on camera dial to establish a connection with the
computer. The windows dialog box pops up and asks him what he wants to do
with the images. He has it at school so I can not get the owner's manual to
give you more specifics.

Hi,

I am running windows XP, & the USB ports work, as i have used other cameras
in them, my friends Kodak, as well as my webcam.

FinePix did install, also the Fuji driver. I have now uninstalled everything
& am starting over.

As i mentioned on his Kodak. When he plugs in the usb cable, the software
opens & everything is there.

Thank you, will try again,

Doc
