Mac compatability

I have just bought the Optio M90 but the CD is only compatable with Windows and not Mac. Is there any software I can download instead?

Hi Steve our Mac computers work well with any camera just "plugandplay" it reads the files on the camera ,and opens I photo then tells you the make and model and how many images you have in the memory without the need for any other software. When you have moved the photos in to I photo it's easy to shift them to PS or whatever.. hope this helps.. Jeff

As the others say - just ' plug and play '

Seriously, either plug the camera in by cable or just take the card out , put it in a card reader and put that in a USB port and away you go . Really couldn't be easier

Hi Steve

A couple of tips you might find useful:

If for some reason you want to get your images into your Mac without using iPhoto you can use Image Capture. Close iPhoto when it opens automatically after you've connected your camera; open Applications/Image Capture; choose which photos you want to download and where you want to save them.

If you import your photos using iPhoto but need to get at the originals for some reason have a look at this article

Hope this helps
