The plate should screw to the camera, and the tighting screw would provide the right amount of tensio to hold the camera. Make sure the rubber gripper on the top if the quick release is not missing, if it is, then there is nothing to grip and it will slip.
I have the same issue as Mike, above - same tripod, lost the platform for the camera. Anyone have a spare camera platform for this particular tripod they can sell?
If it's a quick release tripod you need to remove the quick release plate (Usually a release lever to the side of the top of the tripod) and then fasten the plate securely to the camera and then the plate to the tripod. Older non-quick-release tripods have a knurled screw located below the flat area where the camera is attached. If the screw is missing, get a relacement from your local hardware store - 1/4" -20. (Find a way to keep the new one from getting lost.)
Try www.TripodQuickRelease.com for that part.There is listed the widest selection of quick releases and support more brands than any other web site I've seen.Because your tripod is not supported by the manufacturer; parts lists and pars are not available, you should measure the opening and see what other brand quick releases will work paying attention to the shape and locking mechanism.Otherwise just get another tripod.
I have dificulties in understanding the problem.
A tripod is a device used to hold the camera still it is impossible to connect a tripod directly into the computer.
Use the USB cable to connect the computer with the camera.
