Question about Nikon Coolpix 4600 Digital Camera

1 Answer

Computer isnt reading my camera is plugged in

When i plug my camera into my computer to download the pictures onto it, its like my computer won't recognize my camera is plugged in. It used to work fine, and then the other day i plugged it in to try and download them and it didnt work. My friend said it might have something to do with me plugging my ipod in to charge. Although it isnt plugged in when i plug my camera in. He said i might need to download something, but i was really confused...I dont know if that has anything to do with it? If you have any ideas thatd be awesome! Thanks

Wat are you plugging the camera into? Is it the computer direct or a Hub? Remove all USB devises and plug the camera direct to the PC Make sure the camera is switched on and is set to the 'upload' position.

Transferring pictures onto my desktop
You don't need any software.


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, despite what I said first, you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa.

Hi, I sure hope you guys can help me out! I am trying to download some pics from my computer onto the 4GB memory card in my Canon Powershot A460, but the camera won't let me. The reason I'm doing...
Sorry, no. The camera will let you read the card to transfer pictures to a computer, but it will not let you write to the card to transfer pictures the other way around.

You can buy a card reader that plugs into the USB slot on your computer. Despite the name, a card reader will also let you write to the card. Once the card is plugged in, it will appear as another hard drive.

The card reader will also be a better way to download pictures from your camera. It's likely to be faster and won't run down your camera's batteries.
