8Connect the camera to your computer and transfer the images as explained in Transferring Images to a Computer on page 109. Once the images are transferred to your computer, they will be automatically sent to their respective HP Instant Share destinations. Macintosh users will need to add addressing information for their HP Instant Share destinations before the images and messages can be sent.

How HP Instant Share

E-mails Images

The way images are e-mailed via HP Instant Share works much the same on Windows and Macintosh computers.

Images are not e-mailed as attachments. Rather, a message is sent to each e-mail address that you selected in the HP Instant Share Menu. The message contains thumbnail images of the pictures you selected for that address, as well as a link to a web page where the recipient can view the images. From that web page, the recipient can do things like reply to you, print the images, save images to their computer, forward images, and more. This makes it easy for people who use different e-mail programs to be able to see your images without the difficulty of dealing with e-mail attachments.

On Windows, the process of e-mailing images via HP Instant Share is fully automated: once you have selected your destinations, messages will be sent to each of your recipients and the images will be posted on the web page when you transfer the images from the camera to the computer.
