Importing picture problem !

you can transfer the pics directly from your camera to your computer using the usb cord that came with your camera .

I plug my camera into the computer and copy the pictures onto my hard drive and flash drives. Then I can use whatever program I like to edit, download, print ect. I have found that photo printers are pretty finicky.

The camera doesn't put the date onto the picture, but it does put the information into the file. You can choose to have it appear when you print the picture. If you're printing from the camera, please refer to the "Printing Pictures via USB" section in the manual (page 57 in my copy). If you're printing from the computer, please refer to the documentation for that program.

Select "Backup" from the Setup menu to copy pictures from the internal memory to a memory card. Then you can transfer them from the memory card to your computer as usual.

If I understand you correctly, you put pics onto the SD card using the computer, then put the card in the camera and now can't see the pics? Is that correct? The camera won't recognize the pics because it uses a different recording system than the computer. Now if you want to take more pictures using that card, you will need to format it in the camera first.

just get another sdcard,,plug in to ur cpu,,put the on it,,if you need get you a card reader

just copy and paste from computer to the mem card on your camera via my computer

Go to the camera's "setup menu" and scroll down to the last option, "move images to card" That should put the images onto the memory card.

Transfer the folder to your computer, along with any other pictures you want to save. To do this use a card reader, not the camera. Then click and drag the folder onto your desktop. After you will format the card using your camera (press menu then under the setup tab [yellow colored]) - this will delete all the pictures on your card so make sure they transfered onto your computer. Take a random picture on the camera to generate a new folder. If you want to put the pictures back onto the card so you can view them with the camera (not necessary), you should put the card back into the card reader, then open the dcim folder. you will see a folder which says Canon###, copy that name and make sure it matches the name of the folder you previously copied onto your desktop. click and drag the folder back onto the memory card to replace the existing folder in there (the random picture you took will be over written, so if you liked it transfer it first). That should have covered it...i know i made this very wordy, sorry, but i'm used to explaining these things to my parents who don't even know how to turn on their camera.

Ok, there are two options I'd suggest here. First option is to get a card reader, and copy the files onto a memory card this way. With many cameras it's possible to use the camera as a card reader, but many Canons don't support this function.

The alternative is to burn the pictures onto CD. Most photo labs will print images from CDs for you.

Hope this helps.
