I want to put my photos from my canon IXUS 75 onto the pc

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use Canon's ZoomBrowser or any other photo cataloging program.

To delete the entire card the easiest way, go into the menu and find "format"...follow the on-screen instructions.

A raw image is an uncompressed format your camera takes the picture in. Usually it gets transferred from the camera into a .jpg compressed format to your computer (which simplifies everything and is able to be viewed by anything like photo viewers). I would search for a canon IXUs 75 driver for your computer, and turn your camera 'on' plugged in with your USB using a standard computer photoviewer program to see if it has a live mode?

try re installing the software again, or maybe its not compatible. try and update via internet

Its a one way street...from camera to computer...not the other way around. Doing that will eventually corrupt the card and sometimes even the camera.

Most cameras come with a cord or chip. If you can plug the cord in to your camera and into your usb port you can easily upload photos. The chip should also fit into your computer tower if you have a newer computer. The 3rd option is to go to a 1 hour photo and have them put the photos on a disk for you for about $7.99

OK, I'VE GOT ONE IDEA THAT MIGHT WORK. IT'S WORTH A TRY. DO THIS. TURN YOUR COMPUTER OFF> CONNECT YOUR CAMERA>TURN THE CAMERA ON>THEN, TURN YOUR COMPUTER ON AND SEE IF YOUR COMPUTER WILL RECOGNIZE IT THEN. THIS SHOULD CAUSE THE COMPUTER TO RECOGNIZE THE CAMERA. GOOD LUCK AND I HOPE THIS WORKS! IF YOU NEED MORE HELP,REPLY TO ARCLIGHT1217.

Try doing the following to see if you can isolate the problem:

- Clean the metal contacts on the card with a soft cloth
- Reformat the card
- Try connecting the camera to the computer with a different cable
- Try putting the card in a card reader and copying the files from there
- Check if the photos are displayed correctly on the camera
- Try copying the photos to another computer
- Try copying the photos without using the software (connect camera - it will show up as an external drive in My Computer, double click on icon and browse to photos)

If none of these work then the camera may be broken.
