First, thanks to everyone for good advice here in the photography thread, as the info I have received here has helped me with all sorts of u/w photo info.
I have a brand new Olympus C5050 w/ Ikelite housing and I love it. What is stumping me is that after I have connected the camera to my computer and have finished transfering files via the USB cable, I can't get the computer to stop the device so that it can be unplugged. Other USB connected devices have been easy to stop, but after following all of the directions in the Olympus reference guide (the detailed one on the cd-rom), still no luck.
To give you the details, I make sure all the file transfers are complete, and all folders and applications that access the files are closed. The file access lights on the back of the C5050 are dark - no activity there. When I tell the Removable Disk to stop, it gives me this message: "Cannot stop the device; try again later" as if it is busy or still working. I finally have to just turn off the camera and unplug it, and I get the warning message that I could be damaging things.
I am using Windows 2000. Any advice, or any old threads that provide a solution (couldn't find any through my search).
Thanks in advance for the help.
