You must be connected to your Internet service provider to register electronically. Note to MACINTOSH OS X Users Do not install KODAK Camera Connection Software or Picture Transfer Software-MACINTOSH OS X ships with an image capture application that provides the functionality of both the KODAK Camera Connection Software and KODAK Picture Transfer Software. These two applications are unnecessary and will not function if installed on MACINTOSH OS X. The MACINTOSH OS X image capture application automatically launches when the camera is connected to the computer with the USB cable or the KODAK EASYSHARE Camera Dock Optional, install KODAK Picture Software-You may wish to install KODAK Picture Software for picture viewing, editing, and sharing. KODAK Picture Software installs and runs with MACINTOSH OS X in Classic mode. MACINTOSH OS X Classic Mode launches OS 9 and runs the application in that environment. OS 9 launches automatically when KODAK Picture Software is opened. 40
