Olympus ? Stylus 500 Digital Camera - Page 3 Questions & Answers
I JUST GOT A STYLUS 500 AND DONT KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD
go to My Computer>click on the Drive you are connected to>( it will show you) it will open and there will be a folder of photos. Select all and then move and a little window will open up and you can choose to put them in whatever folder you want or to make a new folder. This will delete the folders off your camera, so if you don;t want to do that then do a copy instead of a move. then you will need to resize the photo for web usage in your photo program. Just open your photo program go to the file menu click open and select a photo click on resize and change the resolution to 72 and the entire pixel width of the photo to whatever My space allows. You will need to go to My Space to upload them from your hard drive( the folder you just downloaded them to) and they will tell you the maximum size. Just experiment a little. It is quite easy to do. Just keep the resolution at 72 for the web.
Have fun and let me know if I can be of anymore help. Your rating is always appreciated.
Flash Not working
Sounds like the flash unit is not charging up, or the charge sense circuit is defective. Could be something as simple as a loose solder connection on the PCB. No simple way of fixing it without taking the camera appart and poking around with a DMM or oscilloscope.
