Ive dowloaded pictures from my camera to my computer plenty of times without added software or a disk but now it wont let me do it and i dont have a disk or any software for it..what do i do???

Did It Come With Insallation Disk?

You don't really need additional software in order to use your camera.

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.

Despite what I said first... There are plenty of photo catalog software packages out there, some free, some not, that can transfer and catalog your pictures so you can quickly find pictures from Susie's birthday party, for example. Just do a google search for "photo catalog software".

try dowload software from website. if you cant found it pls check what type chipset inside your camera.

very simple. you need to get an SD card reader from your local electronics store ( CC or Best buy). it's very simple. the memory card goes into the card reader and that ensemble plugs into any of the usb ports in your computer. once plugged in, the computer will recognize it as external memory, just like a flash/thumb drive and your comptuer can read the pictures off of the card without any interaction with the camera itself. you will be able to see both the picture and video files on the memory card. all you will need to do is copy the pictures or the videos, and paste them into any folder you wish. your computer should have no problem recognizing those files. and windows media player should not have a problem reading the video files either. with them on your computer you can just drag and drop them into any video editing software that you have. i have a canon sd750 and that's exactly what i do. works like a charm.

software has become corrupted, re install it

I lost the CD to my camera. I need to download the software.

Forget the CD Rom
This suggests you are running a PC with XP and it is not a signatured software.
Windows however can download images without the software
Just plug it in and let Windoes do the work

You may download Canon software from here.

Bear in mind that you don't really need the Canon software. 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.

The images are still on the card I would imagine Try these things. 1 if you are downloading via camera software as supplied on a disk Remove the software. 2.Try then to up load - Windows will find the camera all by its self. 3. To see in the images are on the computer Go to Start/Find/ and in the field type *.jpg This will locate every jpeg file on the computer/and Camera no matter where they are. 4.If you have no images showing on the card Go to www.konvar.com download PC Inspector This l;ittle program will recover any 'lost' images on the card or on your drive,
