Please can you help. I can't download photos onto my vivicam 5385 onto windows vista with the usb cable. what should I do?
Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.
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 any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa.
Easy! Buy a New Cable and Software Disc! NEXT!!!

Hookup the camera using the supplied USB cable. Turn on the Camera. And wait!!! Sometimes the VISTA PC will recognize the camera in a minute or two, sometimes longer. Turning the camera on and off will cause an icon to appear in the 'Computer' window momentarily, but it usually disappears!
I have taken many, many pics with my trusty 4100 and have been able to transfer ALL of them by exercising extreme patience.
Just keep checking the Computer window for the USB icon.
Good Luck,
Don

You don't need the drivers...just use a card reader to download your pics.

Is the camera software loaded on the computer. When the camera is connected to the computer and is turned on it the computer should automatically give you options as to what you want to do.
