If the camera is connected to your computer with the USB cable, yes, you would need to turn the camera on in order to transfer the pictures to your computer. Basically, when your camera is on and connected to the computer in this manner, it is acting as a way for the computer to read the contents of the memory card that is inside your camera.
If you are on a Windows computer, you'd need to open "My Computer", and the camera will be shown as a device in that window-- double clicking the camera's icon will show you the folders and files (photos) on the camera. (Probably within a folder called "DCIM") You can drag and drop them on to your desktop or another folder on your computer if you wish.

First, Try and install the HP software again. Uninstall the software first and reboot the pc. Then reinstall software. The memory chip maybe have currupt pictures, so format the chip using the camera. You manual should tell you how to do this. Second, Turn the camera on and let the battery run all the way down. This may take some time, maybe a day. Then charge it back up for a day. I hope this helps you out. Let me know.

I don't know in which country you live (this is helpful to know!), but in most stores offering cameras and many offering electronic items, you should be able to procure a kit of adaptors that will include a cable to use with them.
In the US at least, Wal-Mart, Best buy, Circuit City and Radio Shack are likely sources.
Elsewhere (?) you are on your own.

OK,
Camera has small inbuilt memory that can store few pictures. You can copy these photos in memory stick by inserting memory stick in camera, go to Menu >> Copy >> Yes.
Memory stick stores many photos depends on its size and let memory stick in camera, hook it with computer and transfer photos from memory card.
Thanks.
