Since this is a used camera, it's possible that the USB port on the camera is not functioning correctly. It is also possible that the USB cable isn't working correctly - try another cable. If that dosn't solve the problem, the least expensive fix is to use a card reader and remove the memory card from the camera and insert it in the card reader in your computer. Then you can use Digital Photo Professional (often called DPP) to transfer the photos from the card to your computer, or you can just drag-n-drop using Windows Explorer or Finder (if you use a Mac). You may already have a memory card reader on your printer - if so you can use that. Or you can buy a card reader at most camera and computer stores - they aren't very expensive, usually less than $20. Just make sure you buy one that works for the type of card you are using in this camera.

Canon EOS 20D shutter error

Hello - I figured it out. I had the exact same problem. The shutter failed and it had to be fixed by Canon. Apparently that happens after the shutter fires so many times (like a click-count on a printer). I just got my camera back and it's doing awesome now.

Canon EOS 20D Digital zoom failed

Hi there,
The autofocus mechanism on some lenses can be damaged if you manually focus while the camera is attempting to autofocus. Basically, you would be working against the motor and gears. 
There is no need to download software before using the camera, however, I would suggest going to Canon's website and downloading the firmware upgrades for it. Here's the link:
Canon 20D Firmware Download
Hope this helps!

Canon EOS 20D wont connect to PC

First of all, I think you'll get better results by using a Card Reader. It's faster and you're not so dependent on the camera and computer being in some sort of "sync"

They are soo cheap now and more dependable. Computers aren't so fussy about different card readers being plugged into them.

I think you're problem might be solved by re-installing your Canon software and then following the instructions about interfacing the camera w/computer.......I'd still go for the reader.

Connection Problem

I too have a Canon 20D and receive the same message. Zoombrowser works fine with my Canon G3, so the way I get around this problem is by using the other software that came with the 20D called EOS Viewer. This software will download your images every time. You might try sending a note to Canon's support team on the Canon website. They are very quick to respond to all questions and they can probably respond to this question too. Good luck!
