How to import pictures from my camera to my computer

How to import pictures from my sony digital camera to my computer

Hi skootto58,

Google may help, or it can take you in many directions different or bad.  I have actually used Bing to get to most of the links posted here - so it is obviously useful, but most of us are trying to be a bit more useful than answering questions (even if lack us critical information).  I have referred you to a more appropriate forum, but since I think I can help with the question, I'll answer anyway.  Next time, unless you think that the problem is caused by malware or MSE (which I doubt is the case here), a question like that should be displayed in the site appropriate in the main forum from here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/hardware?page=1&tab=all&tm=1300700638376.

I could be more specific, if I had the specific brand and model of the digital camera and the version of Windows you are using (for example, the SP2 32-bit Vista Business - Yes that much detail).  I don't know if your model has a USB transfer cable or if you remove the memory card and use a player to access the photos.  As it is, I can provide only generic information.  If it helps, it's fine.  If not, then provide this information and I'll try to find specific instructions.

See the following article: http://www.ehow.com/how_5983411_import-pictures-camera.html.

Here's a simple tutorial if you use Vista (and a camera with a USB connection): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/How-do-I-get-pictures-from-my-camera-to-my-computer.

Here's a simple tutorial if you use Windows 7 (and a camera with a USB connection): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/How-do-I-get-pictures-from-my-camera-to-my-computer.

This article deals with transfers of memory flash cards as well as in Windows 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Working-with-digital-pictures.

If using Vista and the problem is that AutoPlay is not enable, see the following set up: http://maximumpcguides.com/windows-vista/change-windows-vista-auto-play-options/.

To be honest, I think the best bet is to go to the Sony support, enter information about your camera, and I think one of the most frequently asked questions for each of them is to know how to transfer pictures to a computer.  Click on that and you should get specific instructions (even though they may vary depending on your Windows operating system, but will probably provide details for the latest versions or they will be so similar that no additional detail is required).  Start here enter your camera model: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/select-system.pl?PRODTYPE=7&NAVDISP=di# and then just look for the instructions and follow them.

If the above does not work, try to download the manual of your camera from here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/select-system.pl?DIRECTOR=DOCS and there is an excellent chance it will cover transfers to computers in every detail.

If that still doesn't work, try their technical support at: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/support-contacts.pl?mdltype_id=3233637171028026724455847427576110810910389103578487710629503964124158815260451017366768662546770682171881008225288369594924104537922424613105685336519473843437435.  There is a good chance that this may involve a cost if your camera is out of warranty. In any case, chances are that it will cost you are highest with phone average contact with chat contacts and the lowest with contact e-mail (just as the level and speed of charge often decreases the same way).

If you can't get free technical support from Sony and don't want to pay for it (and I can't blame you for it), then try their Forums (like this but for Sony and products free to use) and ask your questions there. Start here: https://forum.sel.sony.com/viewforum.php?f=69&sid=7d46201819078b814c4a7095f972920b and check to see if your question is already answered - it can be.  If this isn't the case, post and wait.  They seem not very active so it may be a while before you get a useful answer.

If any of the works above, answer the questions I asked earlier to identify what we deal with, and I'll try to find something a little more precise.  If you have tried to do so but have a certain type of problem, then please also go into detail about what has happened or not happened when you tried.  The system detects the device or memory card?  Be as specific and detailed as possible because more I know, the better I can help you.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones import pictures from my camera on my computer

    Hello world

    I had my 9630 Tour for years and never had a problem with importing photos until yesterday. I can see the pictures I want to import on my phone but when I connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software, they do not appear in the 'Images' under 'Media Sync' tab I get the following message: "there no pictures to import from your device.

    Also, when I connect the USB cable from the phone of the tour, I also get this message, "do you want to turn on mass storage Mode? You will not be able to access some media files in this mode"this is the first time I've seen this message.

    One last point, I went to Wal-Mart on Sunday (MARCH 24) and my card micro in their machine, printed a photo. This is where I believe my problem started because it seems that the Desktop software can read the micro card more. Can someone out there get me back to the point where I can import my photos using the BlackBerry Desktop Software? Also, is there a peripheral USB type out there that I can insert my micro card in and download my pictures until I solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance,

    1Lonewolf

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    I can't tell you why Desktop software stopped working for you... I personally never use for it at all. On the contrary, I use mass storage Mode, which allows me to treat my BB as a USB (2 readers, if there is a media card in the BB) on my Windows computer... allowing me to drag and drop all the files I want to/from the BB in any way I choose.

    If you want to pursue that, see:

    There are several types of readers of SD USB card for computers. Some are great devices, installed internally in the PC. Others are an adapter with USB plug at one end and a slot for SD card on the other. And there are many variations between the two. You should do when shopping for a device of SD USB card reader and choose the one that fits your needs of capacity and price.

    Millie, you can use paint dot net (see my previous answer) to clarify/change

  • How to import pictures from my Album "Photostream" in my local library

    Hi all

    I was wondering how do I import pictures from my 'Photostream Album' in my local library. It seems that when I remove my phone Photostream things it reflects on my Photostream App Photo Album. I'd like to import the photos in Photostream locally then remove them from the photo gallery. I believe that I was able to do it from iPhoto.

    My photo stream is to automatically import photos of your devices. No necessary imports.

    Wait with removal of the photos from your iPhone Photo Stream, until the importation of your Mac photo library was finished. Do not delete not all the photos from the album My Photo Stream, which do not present in the Moments in the library of Photos from your Mac.

    If you ctrl - click a Photo in My Stream Photo album and click on 'Show in the Moment' and photography can be revealed in the times, it has been imported safely. If you cannot reveal it in moments, but not to delete my photo stream.

  • How to transfer pictures from the phone to the computer via a USB cable?

    I just bought a Tundra VA76r and universal mini-USB cable at a local store AT & T. I downloaded the "v3.9.0 USB driver for Windows 32-bit" on the Motorola support site, I have Windows XP SP2 on my desktop Dell. The driver is described as follows:

    This USB driver is used for connecting your Mobile from Motorola phone to a Windows® computer via a USB cable to charge your phone or to access the data on your phone. This USB driver supports most Motorola OS, Linux OS, Motorola, Motorola iDEN, Motorola Symbian/UIQ, Motorola Windows Mobile® and i-mode of Motorola phones.

    I installed the driver and the load function works. My phone USB connection type is MODEM. However, I am not able to "access the data on my phone" as promised in the description of the driver. The phone is not recognized in Windows Explorer. All I want to do is to transfer pictures from the phone to my computer. The price for Motorola Phone Tools ($50) seem expensive for such a simple task. An adapter for my desktop computer bluetooth is also in this price range. The tundra is incompatible with the feature of this driver? I'm doing something wrong with the installation of the phone? Please help me to get the driver to work... Thank you

    Best way to do this is to configure your phone USB setting of "memory card".  Go to Menu-settings-connections-settings USB online online online, select the memory card.

    Once this is done, connect the phone to the computer, phone will be recognized as a removable disk. Go to my computer.  Under devices you'll see removable drive F or G depending on your drives (can show two if you have a card as well.  Memory card is usually the drive at the top of the page.  The phone memory is lower by car).

    Click on the drive (IE. F, mobile - if memory card).  Here you will see audio, music, photo, etc.  Once here, you can get, drag and drop a file on your computer.  Make sure that you create one or more folders for your files on your computer.

    The same also applies if the transfer of files from your computer to your phone.

    I find that this method is better than to sync the phone.

    I hope it will work for you.  Let me know if it doesn't.

  • Help? Cannot import pictures from my camera to the status plus-import Lightroom seems frozen.

    I use the CC LightRoom on a MacBook Air and a Nikon D750 2015.  I connected my camera to the laptop as well as my external hard drive.  I am able to find all the photos on the camera, and I chose about 250 of them to import.  I click Import to start and the main screen looks positive - he says "import...". ».  How is it that I imported the photos 2000 + last in recent weeks.  But today, when I try it just lies in this mode and does not change.  The little green light on my camera flashes like crazy which I believe means it transfers data somewhere, but the status bar in LR doesn't have even a sliver of departure and light on my drive external hard blinking very regularly and I don't think it is doing anything.  I checked the folder of the hard disk through Finder and there began a new temporary folder, but it is empty which seems to confirm that nothing matters.  Any ideas?  I don't have enough disk space to try to reconnect all the photos on my computer first, and I don't have a card reader either (maybe I need to get a?).  Super frustrating - I just rented two lenses and want to see the pictures on my screen to say that that I like better and potentially take some pictures to confirm before I take them back tomorrow morning.  But I can't get the photos to import.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    OK, I'll answer my own question.  It works, but incredibly slow.  After 40 minutes, there is now a millimeter of imported pictures that appear.  I search the forum for faster options, I unfortunately do not have USB 3.0.
