Connecting the card reader
Caution: Cards must be inserted into the correct slot and in the correct direction.
Otherwise you may damage the card or the slot.
Connecting the card reader
To connect your card reader, plug the small end of the included USB cable
into your card reader and the other end into an available external USB
port.
If your computer uses Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Vista or
Macintosh OS 10.1 or higher, your computer automatically installs the
correct driver, and four new drive icons appear in the My Computer and
Windows Explorer windows. If you want to customize the card reader
drive icons, see “Customizing drive icons” on page 10.
Installing the driver
Note: If your computer uses Macintosh OS 9.x, you need to install a driver.
To install the driver in Macintosh OS 9.x:
1 Save all files and close all programs.
2 Insert the utility CD into your CD drive.
3 Locate the AlcorCardReaderDriver.sit file from the Mac
driver folder and drag it onto the desktop.
4 Double-click the compressed file
AlcorCardReaderDriver.sit, then open the
AlcorCardReaderDriver folder.
