Transferring Images to a Computer for Viewing
33
You can use the included software to transfer images you have shot with the
camera to a computer for viewing. If you are already using software included
with another Canon-brand compact digital camera, install the software from
the included CD-ROM, overwriting your current installation.
Windows
* For Windows XP, Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 or later (max. 500 MB) must be installed.
Installation may take some time depending on your computer’s capabilities.
How can I play back movies on a computer?
Install the included software (p. 34).
When watching a movie on a computer, frames may drop, it may not play
smoothly, and the audio may stop suddenly depending on the computer’s
capabilities. Use the supplied software to copy the movie back onto the memory
card, then play back the movie with the camera. If you connect the camera to a
TV, you can view images on the larger screen.
