The battery is dead but I need to upload photos and I don't have the charger. When I plug it into the computer it turns on but it won't let me get my photos and says battery is exhausted.

MF. Could be the new charger is faulty, return charger for exchange or refund. Battery could also be faulty, have it tested if you can by a computer tech. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

Hello! Does it turn on when you have the charger plugged in? If so, you have a dead battery. The laptop maybe indicate that battery is charging, but if she is dead, it won't give you enough power to turn on. Try that!

If it works with a charger on, you need to replace the battery. Need any more help?

If possible test with another charger like a car charger if you have one
also try removing the battery plug in the charger and put the battery back in (don't touch the contacts/gold pins)


if it works with other chargers then the charger is bad


if it doesn't work with other chargers charging port/battery/phone is bad

Here's one source for a compatible battery charger.
I can't tell whether your battery is compatible with your sister's charger since you neglected to specify the model of her camera.
You should be able to use any USB cord, but I suggest you don't. 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 an use any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa.

Could be many things. Let start with a couple of easy ones.1) Unplug charger from computer and outlet, take battery out press power for at least 30 sec. Plug every thing back power on. 2) charger bad won't turn on or charge battery, try diferent charger if don' know how to use a voltmeter. 3) power jack loose or broken. 4) last and worst mother board circuits transitors etc... btw processor, video card or input devices fried. Buy new board from ebay. Don,t fix it. Not worth it. This is Only if laptop gives completely sign of not turning at all. No lights, no hardrive or no working or fan. No signal of life. If couple of lights do turn on it can be the ram or video card, play with ram a bit. Good luck.

The DSC-W55 doesn't charge batteries via the USB port. It comes with a separate battery charger, which plugs into a wall outlet.
