Missing computer cord

Try going to "Search" on your computer. On Windows PC computers, you can usually find it on the lower left of your screen. Enter the word "Found" or "Found file", and the photo file should appear. If that doesn't work, go the folder on your computer that contains the most recent photos that you have successfully downloaded to the computer. Go to the last photo you downloaded, and copy that file number. Enter that entire number in the "search" window, and change the last couple of numbers in the file to something a few numbers higher. In other words, if your most recent photo on your computer from that camera is something like "DSC05300", change it to "DSC5310", and do a search for that number. If your recent photos are in the "found" file as the message told you, that "fake" number should match one of the photos you're looking for. If it appears in the search, it will show where that photo is located, and all your other "lost" photos will be in the same place. Good luck!

It sounds to me like one or more of the wires in the cord has broken, or there is a problem with the USB port on the computer. Try swapping to the other ports to see if the problem goes away before going forward.

If the problem is present on all ports and the camera is still under warranty, I would suggest contacting Canon directly and let them solve the problem.

You could also try purchasing / borrow a cable that fits if you want to save time without a camera / dealing with Canon.

Good luck!

try out the normal usb exten cord which is used for I-Pods, this will work out

My problem is similar. Takes photo fine. Views most recent photo fine. Cannot zoom. Cannot regulate flash. Cannot scroll photos. Cannot delete. Essentially, all those buttons are non-responsive. I first noticed it with the flash. Can you do these other things? I think it is an internal failure. Just past one year old. Has been subject to tempurature change lately.

When the flash is activated the camera reduces its light sensitivity[In old photo terms it 'Stops Down'] to prevent 'burnout'[or over exposure] As the flash is small powered and has only a limited 'throw' only the objects illuminated by the flash will be correctly exposed. On the other hand- with no flash the camera will open the aperture wider to maximise the light available.

Downloading images from a digital camera can be very easy if you keep these basic steps in mind. After loading the PhotoMax software on your computer: 1. Make sure that both the camera and computer are turned off. 2. Confirm that the camera has adequate power (using the AC adapter is recommended; otherwise, make sure that there are fresh batteries in the camera). 3. Plug the serial cable that came with your camera into the serial output of the camera. 4. Plug the wide end of the serial cable into the COM port (serial connection) of the computer. 5. Turn the camera on and start the computer. 6. Launch the PhotoMax software (double-click the icon) from the desktop. 7. Click on Get Photo. 8. Click on Album or Camera. 9. Select Twain device from the Acquire From box and click OK. 10. Select your camera from the Select Source box. 11. Click the Acquire icon: (Thumbnails will be displayed). 12. Select images you wish to save from the thumbnails and click on Get Photos. Your images will now be saved to the album you choose.

The following is a listing of the error codes you might see on the status panel of the PhotoMAX Fun! Digital 320 camera: 1.FL - Photo memory is full. You cannot take more photos. Download and then erase the photos in your camera. 2.FE - Flash memory error. A camera hardware error occurred.

Certain computer hardware and software configurations conflict with PhotoMAX or PhotoImpression software. As a result, you may not be able to transfer 320 x 240 dpi photos from your Polaroid Fun! Flash 640 digital damera. This problem does not occur if you use the camera's default resolution of 640 x 480 dpi.
