I am trying to use a Gigaware USB-A male to Mini connector to download pics from my cell phone. No luck. It came with no instructions or drivers. What do I need to do?
Go online to the website of the phone manufacturer. You should be able to find the drivers there.

What model of phone and what kind of cable? I have seen this same problem, and I need to clarify there is more than one type of USB cable. One type has 4 pins and the other has five. The only real difference is that there are redundant grounds on the five pin. I would look at my local cell phone store and see if the phone is capable of taking these downloads. Does the computer recognize the cell phone? Do you have a printer connected in the same USB port? If so,try a different port. What version of Windows are you using? There is a built in application in Windows XP called scanner and Camera Wizard. To get to it, go to: START, All Programs, Accessories, Scanner and Camera Wizard. I have a Kodak Camera and it launches automatically when the computer detects the camera, but if it doesn't you can do a manual scan for it.
What phone do you have?
