First find out that if your Digital camera is a mass storage device or not.

If you use the normal USB mode then your camera is a mass storage device. If you use the PTP USB mode then your Camera is like a TWAIN device (it was recognizes as digicam). I don't if you can change this on a KODAK, with my Cybershot I can do this.

follow the instructions in the vp manual to connect and make sure everything is ok for both devices and then try transfering.
a slight mistake or misorder can alter the result you know;)

A seller told me that the Kodak 6490 is a mass storage.
Because I do not need the software to transfer my picture, Windows can do it itself...
So why my VP do not want to recognise my Kodak ???

First read the VP manual carefully, about how to connect a camera to VP.
Second, VP is compatible with MOST of the mass storage cameras, not ALL of them! Sorry, you might be just unlucky!

Yes, I understand.
Exept that when I bought it, in a Sony store, nobody told me that it can have a problem of compatibility...

Do you know if it's possible, by a new firmware, to update the VP ???
Or if it's about to be....

Yep it's possible that the problem with some mass storage cameras be solved in future firmware updates.
But whne is the next one? who knows! They still advertise their October 2004 firmware upgrade of VP in the FIRST PAGE !
