IF ONLY I HAD READ ANYTHING ABOUT HOW BAD THIS CAMERA WAS....
but i'm from puerto rico and i'm in chile now, so i need to get this fixed without returning it, SADLY.
I bought a Cyber-shot DSC-W80 and tried to use it with my PowerBook G4 (using Mac OS X 10.4.11) and it didn't work. At first, I tried it with the memory stick and an icon appeared on the Mac Desktop, but if I try to open the folder (which is correctly recognzed as DCIM), I get the pinwheel of death. I tried it without the memory stick but i couldn't transfer the photos via USB. The camera wasn't even recognized. The message on the camera reads "USB Mode Connecting... Switch on [MENU]". WHen I go to the menu, it gives me different ways to connect to the computer, none of which work. Oh, and the installation CD doesn't even work; i can't open ANYTHING on it.
