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. Or you can use any photo cataloging program.

check the link below you should find the driver that will help windows recognise your cam
good luck!

Connect camera to pc and wait for it to be installed, if its not installed automatically download from:

The camera should then be recognized as a removable media device, then just navigate to the photos folder and drag and drop them where you want them.

The best way to recover deleted photos from digital camera is to use some camera photo recovery software, recommended asoftech photo recovery which helped me before. You can follow steps in this tutorial

click on "support & download" at the top of the screen. Then click on "download" in the sub menu.
Digimax s500 is on page 8 and number 87.

Should be able to interface with a computer via USB connection that came with the camera. Pictures on a memory card can be printed at a store with a photo lab, like CVS, using a Kodak kiosk. You can put the card in the machine, print pics or save them to a cd.

I can't imagine why in the world you would want to pay an inflated price for another proprietary USB cable. I haven't plugged a camera directly into my computer for years. The last time I did, it was balanced precariously while downloading pictures and got knocked off the table. The USB cable stopped its fall, but the jack in the body of the camera was twisted in the process and completely ruined. A much better option would be to head to your local Comp USA, Best Buy, Radio Shack, etc. and purchase a 9 in 1 card reader. It's a small block of plastic with several slots that will accept a wide variety of memory card formats that have been created over the years. With this single USB device you can read/transfer data from many different devices that you may own. The reader can stay attached to your computer all the time. You simply take the media card out of your camera and plug it into the reader whenever you want to download your pictures. Simple! As an added benefit, you can now make use of that pathetic 128 meg card that came with your camera. Write all your internet accounts, passwords, and other important info to it. Then hide it in a safe place (deposit box) in case of disaster.
