What is the destination folder that the date be underneath? In the top right it says users who suggests, you try to put the photos on top of your username instead of under your username. Maybe that's the problem. So change your folder in the drop-down list at the bottom right of what it should be rather than users, and if you're going to show us the destination of your photos at least scroll through the list of folders down right so that we can see which is the white highlight.
Here is how mine looks like if I want to put my photos imported under my subfolder users - Steve - photos by date:

I'm unable to connect to the internet and I also can not use the WinXP system restore.
No internet connection and I also can not use the WinXP system restore because it gives me an error at the 'end' which said: it cannot be restored to an earlier date. I run AntiMalware bytes and StopZilla and erased all that they found. Now I can't even connect to the internet. When I go to the command prompt, it gives me an error contact the Support of MS that I know means I have a virus or a trojan that I should just get a time out? My other PC on the same network is fine and connected. The NETWORK card is fine, just does not know how to get rid of what it is, I have and to top it all impossible to connect to the internet to try all of the tools that can help. Someone at - it ideas?
The error you get at the end of the restoration of the system is typical of some anti-virus programs (Norton, especially) that interfere with the restoration of the system. Try to start your computer in Mode safe (on several occasions, key to tap F8 while your computer starts) and run safe mode system restore.
Additional information is necessary to treat your network problem. Try to bring up a command prompt (start-> Run-> "cmd") or if it does not, try (start-> Run-> "command.com") and enter the command:
ipconfig/all
and after the info that appears in the State resulting.Also, check the logs of your system related errors (start-> Run-> "eventvwr.msc") and click on 'System' in the left column.

I can't open my camera of withdrawal because it asks to format when inserted, but when format us windows says it can't complete the format
This problem is usually caused by
1. problem with the connecting cable2. the problem with USB port3. problem with the device itself.I suggest you try changing ports and cable. If this does not work, the problem is with the device only.In addition, note that the option to remove is not necessary to be used if you use Windows XP or a higher version of Windows and the device has an indicator of activity.As you can see, most USB storage devices are configured for the fast-moving, which means, no need to use the option remove safely. If you are sure of a use, for example, a file transfer operation is complete, you can remove the device directly. -
