I have a Casio Exilim phone w/camera. The software that came with the phone to download pictures from the camera to the computer is for Windows 2000, XP and VISTA. I have Windows 7. How can I download photos from my phone?

You must have mistaken , i've the same camera , and apps with it , runs in my window 7 too, just insert cd in computer , open my computer ,go to cd drive and run setup.exe

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 ( http://picasa.google.com ).
