digital camera


Question Posted Thursday July 27 2006, 8:03 pm

my digital camera works, itself.
I can take pictures and all that good stuff
but when i go to upload them onto my computer, it just doesn't work.
it goes the camera screen where i can take pictures and just doesn't uplaod them.
I've tried restarting my computer.

It just started doing this.

someone told me blowing into the retreiving and receiving end of the USBcord would help, but I'm not sure & I don't want to mess up anything.

Your port could be overloaded. Mine does that sometimes... usually if that happens a little pop up thingy will come up showin the port settings, and then itll have a little link at the bottom that says something like "RESET". if that happens to you, hit Reset & it should be fine. if not, switch ports, & if it still doesnt work, you can try blowing into the ends of the USB cord. it wont mess it up -- i do it alot. if nothing helps, you might need a new USB cord all together. good luck!

Try a different port first.

If that still doesnt work, try turning the camera on.

If it's STILL not working, I'd take it to Best Buy or something and have it looked at.

It won't hurt it. It helps, sometimes, but only if you have a lot of dust and crap in your port. Try using a different USB port on your computer.
