  • computer does not recognize my camera

    Hello, I have a windows xp pro to recognize my digital camera as a screen pop up and allow to my download and edit images.   When I plug in the camera and select pc I hear the 'gah-dunk"but nothing on the screen of the computer appears as before.   help alfredted

    This digital camera has it's own package? One that allows you to download the camera in your computer?

    Or do you just rely on XP to do for you?

    What make your camera is, check out the website of its manufacturer.

    Appropriate software, if you don't have it. (There may be the latest version... you can upgrade, here.)

    If you have not installed the software, maybe it is corrupted and requires... uninstalled and then reinstalled to new (to refresh the application)?

    If you have photos stored in your computer, using this software, please, save what you have... before you try to reinstall the software.

    For me, it is simply a "common practice" for when things won't work properly.

    This includes hardware and software, simply uninstall and then reinstall.

    Most of the people do not like this as they see it as being all a task too hard... for them, when it's really not.

    It is the fear of 'maintenance', or should I say "preventive maintenance", where they "fear" of losing their precious ' private pictures/details/contact numbers-e-mail addresses/etc'...if they had to attempt such a thing because maintaining their computer in a "working condition". (Funny, it's their computer tends to 'develop' major problems... from this attitude, and they ask 'why' it does more than just more!)

    Worry on this subject, and not do anything in this regard, well, that just makes the job more difficult stuff. A few times makes the problem much worse is it really, because people will tend to continue to use the computer when there is a problem that needs fixing.

    Okay, so that you spend 10 to 30 minutes to sort out the problem, when it occurs, it is the best time to make... never later.

  • My computer does not recognize my Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500 more

    I just bought this mouse about 1 month ago. It worked perfectly today until the connection has been lost suddenly while I was installing some drivers and programs... I tried out the USB and then place it into other usb ports, but that has not worked. I also tried to stop my computer and turn it back on then tried usb thereafter, but that did not work either. I don't think his damaged in anyway but maybe it has something to do with the connection bluetooth if it I really don't know...   Any help would be appreciated, thanks

    Hi gramward1,

    We recommend all first download and install the drivers for the chipset on the computer and check the difference.
    To download the driver, visit the website of the manufacturer of the system.

    Step 1: You can also try to search for the hardware changes and check if the device is detected on the computer. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. connect any USB device to the computer.
    b. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
    c. in the list of items, click one of the items, click the Action menu and click scan for hardware changes.
    d. check if the device is detected.

    Step 2: Try to remove and reinstall all USB controllers
    a. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc in the Open box and then click OK.
    b. in the list of components, expand Bus USB controllers.
    c. right-click on each device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click on uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    d. restart the computer once you have removed all the USB controllers.
    Note: USB controllers automatically install after you restart the computer.
    e. plug the removable USB storage device and perform a test to ensure that the problem is solved.

  • Windows XP Movie Maker does not recognize Canon camera

    Windows XP Movie Maker does not recognize my camera Canon HF R10.  Canon is also not listed as a brand for the digital display when I connect the device to the computer.

    Windows XP Movie Maker does not recognize my camera Canon HF R10.  Canon is also not listed as a brand for the digital display when I connect the device to the computer.

    =========================================
    Movie Maker has been designed to download from mini-DV cameras
    connected with FireWire... (they record at small cassettes... not
    flash drives)

    The best would be to download the video files in a folder on your
    hard drive... convert the WMV movie format and then import
    in Movie Maker.

    If you connect the camera via a cable USB and go to... My computer...
    It should be recognized as a drive. If it's... you can download it from
    there by copy and paste or drag and drop.

    Good luck...

    Microsoft did not your hardware - done HP.

    All support for it - regardless of your operating system - is the manufacturer of the equipment.

  • Computer does not recognize Toshiba external 500G HDD - HARD drive

    Sorry, I use a translator, because all the illiterate

    A year and a half used the hard drive, and now the computer does not recognize it, the TV too.
    In Device Manager, it is there, but says "initialization error".

    What should do?
    Thanks for the replies

    You have partitions software installed on the laptop you?
    I guess that the HARD disk does not appear in windows Explorer, but common partition as the partition Wizard tool might be able to recognize the HARD drive.
    You can try to format the HARD disk and to create the new NTFS partition.

    Another solution:
    Usually, you can initialize the disk by DiskManagement.

    In disk management, right-click the disk you want to initialize and then click on initialize disk.
    In the dialog box initialize the disk, select the disk to initialize.
    You can choose to use the master boot record (MBR) or the style of partition GUID partition table (GPT).

    Once a disk is initialized, you can create partitions on it.
    After you create a partition, you can format the partition to create a filesystem (NTFS).
