finepix viewer

<p>Dear all,</p>

<p>I have a Fuji Finepix S5600 which I bought in March 2006.<br>

When I bought it, there was a CD with the FinePix Viewer, which I could use to download photos and they were then nicely named after the date when taken, sorted into folders etc.<br>

In June 2007 I moved from Italy to Romania and I cannot find now the CD.<br>

To make it worse, my old laptop, on which the software was installed, got a virus which I could not get rid of because it was XP SP1. I now have a new laptop, of course without the FinePix Viewer.<br>

I looked on the internet and saw that Fuji only gives updates of the software but not the software itself.<br>

Do you know where could I get the software?</p>

<p>thank you<br>

Maria</p>

<p>I suggest you download one of the better free programs such as Google's Picasa 3 - <a href="http://picasa.google.com/features.html">http://picasa.google.com/features.html</a> - or FastStone Image Viewer -http://www.faststone.org/ - and forget using Finepix Viewer. Picasa has some nice editing features and FastStone is quite fast.</p>

<p>Dear John,</p>

<p>thank you very much.<br>

From what I've seen Picasa doesn't have any of the features I was looking for.<br>

With FastStone I managed to rename the images after the date when they were taken, which is a big step forward, thank you, but finepix viewer had also an option to create folders according to the date, which I could not find.</p>

<p>Photoshop Element 7 can do what you want.</p>

<p>Also go to the Fuji site and send Customer Support an e-mail. They just might send you a replacement or let you download it. Of course, they might not. It is worth a try.</p>

<p>Maria,<br>

You're in luck. I did a google and typed in "fuji finepix s5600 software" and the second website listed was one of Fuji's. If you click on it and read a bit you'll see that there is a link under the heading "FOR WINDOWS 2000/ME/98SE 1341KB", at the end of the paragraph, that will take you to Fuji's site that has the software download for the viewer you are seeking.</p>
