Help downloading pics.
Question Details: I have two NEW digital cameras. I've downloaded the software from both of them and Ive taken and downloaded some pictures already. Now with both of the cameras I cant download anymore pics. Yes, the pictures are on the camera but I cant seem to get them to dowload on to the computer. Every time i hook the cables to the computer cable, i click the button that should download the puctures, but a message always pops up saying 'Driver open fail'. What does that mean? I need some help! Please and Thank you. The two programs may both be using the same driver and each wants it configured a certain way. This may be causing the driver to become corrupted.
I can think of two options if you are using Windows. One, you can restore your system to a date when the software and downloading was working. Or Two, you could uninstall both software programs using the Add or Remove Programs Control Panel. You can then reinstall the software.
I would only install one and see how it's working. If the cameras have the same connection/cable, you may be able to download from both cameras without installing the second program.
Does either camera use a memory card? I find it much easier to transfer pictures from the camera to the PC using the memory card and a memory card reader (many new computers have them built in).
If that doesn't work, you may want to post more specific on what cameras you have.
I hope that helps. |
