Question about Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-P31 Digital Camera

1 Answer

Can't get pics off the camera!

I have about 90 pictures on my camera that I would like to upload onto the computer, but when I plug the USB cable into the camera, nothing registers! It worked fine a couple weeks ago, I haven't changed any settings on the computer or camera. Any advice as to why nothings happening?

USB can be funny some times- it has worked so you know what to do OK? Check-the USB setting- Start/ControlPanel/System hardware/device manager Rund down to the USB setting and open it check for any yellow makers intcatiing afault - seek help from there. If you are using a hub or have multiple other devices connected.- disconnec them and use the USB cord direct to computer. Have you remembered to switch the camera on- it has good batteries- set to upload Huh! So much to remember easy to forget something If the trouble wont go away- go buy a card reader and leave that lugged in to usb.

How can i upload pictures onto computer (mac) without cd? I have the cable
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 iPhoto or any other photo cataloging program.

Cannot upload pics from camera to PC
Hi Ray;
Try uninstalling the Fuji software completely, through the Windows control panel. Don't use the supplied software at all. Make sure the camera is unplugged from the computer. Open "my computer" and note which drives are present. Now plug in the camera (still turned off) to the USB port. Turn the camera power switch on. Wait and see if a new drive icon shows up. It may take a minute or so. If you get a new icon (probably Fuji DSC or similar), you should be able to open the new drive and access the images through the various folders. If not, can you see images on the camera screen (when not connected to computer)? If yes, maybe a bad cable. If no, could be corrupted images on card.
