My solution is to unistall your current canon software that holds 15 canon components in your computer. You will find them under system task and select remove programs. After you have uninstalled the program, reinstall your "Canon Digital Camera Disk" and follow their prompts. Now you should be able to transfer images again as per normal.
I have answered this question in detail under another question postered by "whitecar631" under canon "save folder not found" canon sd1100.
This worked for me, but I don"t know how to prevent it happening again. I do know the day I lost all "my pictures", I had previously deleted a large file in my documents. I also experienced "save folder not found" when I tried to transfer images from my canon ixus 100.
I was lucky enough that I had all of my original SD Flash Media Cards, so could transfer all my photos again. I have since put all my photos into labelled folders instead of dates and images.
Hope this helps, it appears to be a problem in the canon program. Joyce

    In step form; *Click on Start (left hand corner on open page). *Under Owner, go to My Computer. *Under System Task, click on Add or Remove program. *Highlight and Remove each canon component (15) one at a time.*The computer has a clean slate now and you can install your canon disk again and it will put the 15 components back into the computer without the fault. I tried installing the disk without removing the old program but it will not work until you do. Remember you cannot do any harm while you have the Digital Disk, it is as if you are installing it for the first time when you purchased your camera. Joyce

How do I transfer my iPad photos to my computer

First, Plug your iPad into your computer using a iPad charging cable, iTunes will usually by default open, just hide the window,, as well an AUTOPLAY window should open, find where you can see "open folders", click, Windows explorer will show an internal storage image file, double click the internal storage image, you should see a folder called DCIM, double click the DCIM folder. Once open, you should see several folders with funny numbers and letters, they make no sense, but, this is where images that were either, captured by camera or, from the iPad desktop capture feature will be stored, along with any other software that has the ability to capture an image and save it to the camera roll. You can open a folder or select one by clicking once on it, then press CTRL & the letter "?", this selects all the folders, the press CTRL & the letter "C" this will copy all the selected folders, then open your pictures folder, or where ever you'd like the images saved, press CTRL & the letter "P" this will now paste all the folders with the images from your ipad into the location you have selected. Done! Alternately you can sync your iPad, however you must first select the correct setting within iTunes to sync to the correct folder, as well you can turn on iCloud Drive and sync your photo's to the cloud system, which leaves a folder with all the synced images inside the iCloud folder. I hope you have found this information helpful, if you have please leave a positive rating. Good Luck!

Transfer to computer

You need the software on the cd rom that came with yor camera.
I quote from the manual: turn on the computer-plug the USB cable into the camera-plug the other cable end into a USB port on the computer-the image download window displays on the computer screen-use the software's browser function to choose the folder in which you would-be like to save your pictures-click Ok to download the images. Hope it works!

I'm trying to load my photos from my camera to my computer and I'm getting a message that says "Save Folder Not Found." I've never had a problem before.







it is possible that the original "Save Folder" has been deleted or name changed. Go to options and create a new folder to save your photos to. Hope this can help. UAW 974

Sharon,

When you launched the FinePix Viewer, go to "Settings", and then move your cursor down to "Way of Saving", tick the "Make Folder" by "Date", and then click "Browse" to identify the drive partition/folder to save your photos.
After that, click the icon with the symbol of the "camera to folder" on your top right corner, to upload your photos to your computer.

When I plug in my camera to my computer to transfer images a gray box pops up not allowing me that reads "Save file not found" What is it talking about?

Hi missroxalot

I think the folder that cannon software made to store pictures in when it installed has become corrupt ,moved or been deleted.I would try to reinstall the program from the disk that came with your camera.
Or you could use the solution I found while searching for your answer .

Save folder not found

The save folder it is looking for probably doesn't exist. If you are using Canon CameraWindow DC, cancel out of the download popup by choosing "operate on images on camera". Then click on the button that looks like a folder with the word "set" below it. Click browse and select the folder you want your images saved to. (For example, "My Pictures".) Now click the button that has an arrow pointing from a camera to a computer. Your images should begin downloading to your computer without any error.

How to transfer messages from motorokr to computer?????

If you're using the MotoRokr E6, open the Mobile Phone tools application in your PC, after you have connected your phone to the PC of course. Once you get the main screen (your phone will appear as an image on the PC desktop), hit the F4 key. Then hit send/recieve button.

All the messages from the inbox will be transferred to your PC window. Select the messages in the window and hit "save as." to save in a folder of your choice. Hope this helps.
