Can't transfer pictures from Cannon Camera SD750 to computer. Used to work fein but lost connection.What did I wrong? Can you advise?

First install the software that came with the camera. Lost the CD? goto this link and get the software and drivers for free.
Canon Support Drivers PowerShot G9
After install, connect the camera to the PC and switch it on. if the software does not start automatically, start it by hand and put in the settings it should startup when the camera is connected.

I did search with a name of a camera, but if you have a microfilm scanner, go here for the software and drivers:

Microfilm Scanner 400

I would recommend never to edit any pictures on the camera. First copy all files to a hard drive, then do your editing. You can delete, that is okay.
The problem which can happen on cameras trying to edit, is possible corruption.
Avoid problems by copying to a computer, then edit with your favorite editor or other kind of program.

You can download the manual (and more) from the manufacturer's web site at

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. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, or whatever program you might have used in the past.

Do you have the ISO set too high?

You can transfer from the camera to the computer but not the other way around. That's the way it's supposed to work.

Replace the USB cables, it should work..........

OK, LET ME SEE IF I CAN EXPLAIN THIS FOR YOU. TO TRANSFER YOUR IMAGES FROM YOUR CAMERA OR MEMORY CARD YOU NEED EITHER A CABLE TO CONNECT YOUR CAMERA TO A USB PORT OF YOUR COMPUTER.
