With the camera turned off, connect the USB cable to the PC and plug the smaller end into the camera. The camera will turn on and display the USB selection screen.

Instead of downloading the pictures using Lightroom, make a file on your desktop. Copy and paste all of your photos from the memory card into the folder. Open the folder and change your computer's Finder (Mac) or Explorer (PC) to the thumbnail viewing mode. If all of the files show up there, try opening them from there. If not, let me know and we will proceed to step 2.
You didn't specify the make and model of your camera, but I'll assume it uses a memory card of some type.
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.
The image type is jpeg, your computer most likley has image viewing software already installed, such as Windows media player. Or download Picasa or other viewing software, get picasa here http://picasa.google.co.uk/
you can load images onto a card via a card reader, but not directly to the camera.
Also images that have been through an editing process in the computer will have been altered so as to be unreadable in the camera- if you were thinking of using the camera to view via a TV for example

Once you have properly connected your camera to your computer (see FAQ #2 listed above), your computer will see your camera (connected and powered on) as a disk drive - most likely listed as "removable disk." Now that you know where to look to find the images, they can be viewed and/or downloaded in a variety of programs. Please visit our Learning Studio for specific step-by-step instructions (complete with examples and visuals) for further assistance in viewing/downloading images.
