Windows xp automatic camera detection

Hey,.
I have an Olympus Stylus Tough-3000 digital camera and Windows XP Professional. It works on my Windows 7 computer, but when I plug it to my XP computer, all I hear is the sound, and then get a box that says 'choose what program to use with your device.' There is not in the list, so I downloaded Picasa 3, but it won't work. And when I go to scanners and cameras then plug my camera, my camera icon appears briefly and then disappears. Help, please!

Maybe something in the following collection of suggestions (already posted
in the MS newsgroups) will shed light.

Before that you connect your device to your computer, make sure that you have enough
battery power or better yet use your AC connector if your camera came with
one. Then check the manual of your camera.  With most cameras, you put simply
on and set to take pictures with others, you need to put in
something like connect to the PC or define the PTP. After the connection, power of the camera
and wait about 15 to 20 seconds for XP to recognize the camera, you will hear
some his "Ding Dong" and the LCD screen of your camera will change (the
change is dependent on the type of camera you have) and you are now ready to
transfer, even if the AutoPlay window does not open automatically.  If you
do not hear a sound or the LCD screen of your camera does not change, the
the USB connection is not correct. Go to the bottom of these
directions to repair the USB connection.

 
After hearing the sound:
 
1. open my computer, look under devices with removable storage. Your camera
(or card reader) appears as an external drive (probably listed
below of your CD-ROM drive). Right-click on your camera listed as an external
drive. A menu opens, click on AutoPlay listed in the opening menu. This
should open the AutoPlay window to download your photos the same way as when
the AutoPlay window opens automatically when you connect your camera.
 
Or
 
2. open my computer, look under devices with removable storage. Your camera
appears as an external drive (probably listed below your CD
by car). Double-click it to open it.
You will see a folder, double-click it to open it, and then another folder, double
click it to open it and you will see the list of photo files. Select all
the files and copy them to a folder on your hard drive. To select all files, press and hold the
Hold CTRL key and press the letter A. Or, click on edit on your top bar and
then click Select all in the opening menu. When the files are selected, their
the names are highlighted in blue.   You can then see the menu on the left
file names and click on copy, then select the folder you want or
Create a new folder.

If you want to repair the automatic AutoPlay window you can try the
Next.

Different ways of trying to fix the window of Autorun for download from
camera or card reader. Also, the same procedure can be used for a CD
drive AutoPlay.

Go I-V steps, although V step may not be necessary.

I. connect your camera (or a card reader) to your computer and make sure that you
have pictures on your memory card. Make sure that your batteries are equal to or greater
again, use your power adapter if your camera came with a. If you try
just connect with a card reader, with an inserted memory card and
photos on the memory card. Turn on the device, wait 10 to 15 seconds for XP
to recognize, you should hear a sound and the LCD screen of your camera
will change, change is dependent on the type of camera you have.

Click on my computer and look under the device with removable storage. Your


camera appears, probably under your CD player and a player
letter will be assigned to it (something like the H, G, etc.). You will use this
The drive letter in a step below, so just note it on what the drive letter is.
If you don't see your camera listed there, you'll need to fix your USB
connection (see below for repair), or you are on a network and the network
Player is Z and XP cannot assign a drive letter to your camera. You will need
take care of that first. The following steps will not work if XP cannot be attributed
a drive letter for your camera. In some cases, your camera may be listed
but no drive letter. Try the drive letter after the CD or DVD drive
registered at the camera.

II. Click Start, click Run, and type the following command in the text box:
REGSVR32 SHIMGVW. DLL
and press enter
Note that there is a space between... 32 and SHI...
This will take a few seconds to run.

III. download the file autofix.exe site below.  At this Microsoft
site, you have the possibility to download the autofix.exe file in one of your
folder (or create a new folder, and then save the file it), then open the folder
Double-click the file, and then follow the instructions on the screen. Or,
Let Microsoft scan your computer for repair. You will need your
drive letter of camera during this step.  After that, restart your computer.

IV. after reboot, power on, wait 10 to 15 seconds for XP
recognize it, you should hear a beep and the AutoPlay window
should now open giving you the opportunity to download pictures from the camera.

V. you may need to set the options in this window.
Click on my computer, your camera must be registered the peripheral with slot
Removable storage. Right-click on it and click Properties. When opening
window, click the AutoPlay tab, under Select, highlight the pictures to
Select it. Select the warn me...  Do the same thing for a CD player.

 
Another solution posted by Bill, using a Nikon camera.

I installed the camera through the Control Panel Add Hardware feature. He went
point of requiring a file called ptspusd.dll from the service pack, a. I have
found the file via search on my hard drive. Type the path in the window
who asked for her and she had. Solved the problem. See Configure your menu on
the camera to see your USB setting is PTP

 
To repair your USB connection:

Go to control panel > performance and maintenance > system > hardware > device
Manager > Universal Serial Bus Controller, click the plus sign + to see the list
arrangements in place. If your device is connected, it must be registered with
with a yellow flag (the yellow flag indicates that although the connection)
is there, it does not correctly).

Make a right click on it > properties > troubleshooting. See if the convenience store can
Help. If this is not the case, click Action in the top bar, and then click Uninstall. Let your
camera on and connected and reboot. XP should now recognize the camera and
install it (I assume here that your camera is fully compatible with XP
and according to your manual, you don't need to install a driver, that
must be true for the cameras of 2001 and more).

 
Also, make sure the software you use for photo editing. When you open the
software, click file in the upper bar. Consult the opening menu. You
probably have an option to download photos from a camera or a scanner or
card reader.
 
Something else could be the problem (this is a more recent, June 2004,

problem) as shown here:

All of a sudden there are not a lot of posts here on the camera wizard
work. Same thing for me after work for at least a year. An of the
messages mentioned the upgrade to Real Player seems to cause the problem. I have
recently updated that also. Just uninstall my camera assistant and it came
immediate return - this after weeks of trying to figure out what went wrong!
--
Brigit

 
(Note: some have reported that uninstalling Real Player 10 works fine,)
others have reported that they had to use the autofix.exe after removing
Real Player 10. Real Player is aware of the problem and working on a fix).
Apparently, he had no problem with Real Player 9.

Another possible solution.

Click Start, click Run, and type the following command in the open text box:

cmd

Press the Enter key

A window opens (black and white) and displays the following text:

C:\Documents and Settings\Votre name Name\

Type the following at the end of the above line after the.

Net start stisvc

Press the Enter key

You will receive a message that service is already started (if if it does not work)
solve the problem) or it starts (if if it can solve the)
problem). Then try to connect to your camera after you close this window. TO


Close this window, type EXIT at the end of the displayed line and press on the
Enter the key.

  • Windows Media Center cannot detect the error DVD Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD into the drive

    Original title: why Windows Media Center does not detect my DVD?

    I built my computer motherboard ASUS P658D, Intel i7 processor clocked at 2.6 gHz, 12 GB RAM, 750W Corsair PWR. power, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit & ie9. When I put or the other two DVDs in one of two DVD players, Windows Media Center appears and when I click on "Play DVD" Media Center give me a window that says:

    "Windows Media Center cannot detect a DVD in the DVD - ROM drive. Insert a video DVD in the drive." Two DVDs, I've tried are educational for DVD

    my Nikon D300 Digital camera and a family video DVD or both these very well play in a bed of same computer running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, & ie8.

    I tried Microsoft Fixit, no help. I tried to send Microsoft Support, and I got NO HELP. I did not bring any changes, and installed any program, just

    scoured the internet. A DVD player is a Sony Optarc with Microsoft Driver, the other is ASUS. I also tried to use Windows Media Player but nothing

    rises or it returns me to Windows Media Center and it does not detect to play either of my DVD. How can I get help here, or from Microsoft? Thank you.

    No, there is no yellow warning in Device Manager and the device manager says that two DVD players work properly. Mr. Fix it's

    automated download from microsoft that is supposed to automatically fix some problems, but he provided no help here. I think it is more likely

    that there is a problem with Windows Media Center or Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and either of my two new Sony DVD drives

    and ASUS.

    I thought my way in a solution. My thought was: Device Manager indicates DVD players work properly and both are new and we're Sony, and the other ASUS so I think only an unlikely problem with readers. The problem is with Windows Media Center "do DETECTED is not the DVD. So there must be a problem with Windows Media Center. I thought that I might need to reinstall Windows 7... then I thought that maybe if I just reinstall Windows Media that will work. He did. My problem was:

    Start > Panel > programs and features > features on or off Windows activate > then uncheck the box for multimedia functions > restart the computer > and then re-check the box to restore the multimedia features > now both discs play both DVDs, I tried. Both disks are operating normally. Reinstall the characteristics of media Windows 7 resolved the problem. Thanks to all who offered solutions.

  • Is it possible to have windows to automatically select a spare printer by default when the selected default printer is off line?

    I use a laptop and move between two locations each with its own printer.  Whenever I move, I have to change the default printer by opening printers & faxes from the control panel.  Is it possible to have windows to automatically select a spare printer by default when the selected default printer is off line?

    If the default printer is not in offline mode, it will detect the different printer but it will not be a default one.

  • keyboard no one and several windows opens automatically

    The last few days Ive seen the following problems with my laptop:

    1. on a normal startup

    several windows open automatically without prompting to the keyboard. The first window is usually the Help window, and then opens the default browser window as well. 10 - 15windows opens in a duration of one minute and continue until I manually closethem or at the end of the process in the Task Manager.

    This experience on the admin user and others

    2. Alternatively on the boot of startup window stops and asked to choose an operating system.  This machine has only win7 on it. no option cannot be selected as keyboard stubbornly inactive you.

    3.

    If by chance the machine decides to start, I can not connect to the user, because the keyboard is not responsive

    If I get the admin user for which I have no password... anything can be typed keyboard non-responsive rest like a potato.

    It seemed that the keyboard was defective, so ive got changed, but the problem persists.

    Help, please.

    Of course, it looks like infections are present.

    Run ADWcleaner https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/ it's free and one of the only malware cleanup tools that I trust.  Malwarebytes can be used, but be careful to not take the trial or use the pro version.  Virtually all the removal tools known as maleware are in themselves of malware.

    If you are unable to get sufficient control, download ADWcleaner into the USB port on another computer.

    I assume you mean to Internet Explorer (IE)?  If you are, reset

    Tools, Internet Options, advanced.

    Multiple OS question at the start is usually someone re - install Win7, but unless you first delete the existing partition.

    Now, this is a controversial subject, but your choice of AV software may be something you want to take a 2nd look.  I suggest you visit this website to get an idea of what AV software made the best work, depending on what type of user you are: http://www.av-comparatives.org/ is a non-profit that has been around for a long time and I hope that their results.

    When you interpret these results, remember the difference between a product that detects 95% and the other 99% of infections, it is actually 5 times more likely to allow an infection.

    I care about 140 Windows PCs and I have more than 13 years.  Until last September, the only AV software that I would allow my clients to use was Norton Antivirus.  Note that this is not the same as any other product, Norton 360 or Internet Security.

    Last September, Symantec (Norton owner) decided to no longer sell such a product.  After much research, I decided on Bitdefender Antivirus 2015 +.  I installed it on more than half of these PC so far and has never been a problem.  In fact, I think it's a better product than even Norton.  One of the things I love the most about it, is the silence and discretion.  It is also cheap.

    My customers know that if they install any product of 'Internet Security', I won't work on their computers until it is deleted.  Very well, I learned the hard way that the other components of these products (other than the AV itself) IS caused more problems than any profit that they bring and work primarily by stopping the Windows component that does a very good job of this particular task still.  My problem is that when I started to work on a computer with an IS on it, I could spend hours trying to diagnose the problem, only to find out that by taking the product of the IS, the problems have become much clearer and easier to solve.  I think that the product of the IS actually hides the problem.

    As I said.  It is a controversial topic and you will find many different very strong opinions.  I know that mine is based on a fairly large sample over a long period, and are consumers of consumer type Windows.

    Another thing you need to know: you can delete not entirely of most any AV software simply by using the standard uninstallation tool Windows 7.  Most of the majors also publishes a "removal tool" that gets the rest.  If you do not completely remove it, it will cause very hard to understand and diagnose problems.

  • "Windows Media Center cannot detect the IR control cables, which are necessary to control the set-top box. Fixing parts IR that supports the IR control cables and then try again. IR HARDWARE NOT FOUND ".

    Original title: when setting up Windows Media Center, I get the error message: "IR hardware not detected".

    I have an internal TV Tuner that has been installed by HP, when I bought recently a "computer build-your-own." (According to the control panel Device Manager, my tuner is a Win TV HVR 1290, made by Hauppauge). The computer came with Windows 7. While installing Windows Media Center, after setting up the TV Signal (on channel 3) I am able to see a video thumbnail on my computer screen. I am also able to change the channel using my remote control U-Verse (not the Windows remote control supplied with the computer). So far so good! I then hit next and get the following message: "Windows Media Center cannot detect the IR control cables, which are necessary to control the set-top box. Fixing parts IR that supports the IR control cables and then try again. IR HARDWARE NOT FOUND ".  After you receive this message, the installation procedure is completed. I called HP that support intalled the tuner. They had not the slightest idea what to do. I then called Hauppage customer (manufacturer of TV Tuner). They said that I need to plug one end of the IR Blaster cable that shipped with the computer in a slot in the back of my computer (they told me which slot). They said so to run the IR all the way cable to my cable box and the other end of the cable to my cable box of band. They said it was necessary to be able to use my Microsoft Remote to instruct the box to change channels (cable IR stuck on the box). I told her that I did not use the Microsoft Remote, I could change the channel with my U-verse remote (that I preferred to use anyway). He said that it took the cable on the band decoder in order to remove the error message and the installation of Windows Media Center. I then called U-Verse technical adapter who informed me of their set-top boxes (made by Cisco Systems) do not have the ability to receive signals IR IR Blaster cable (or any othe IR signal source). Microsoft is apparently not understand how U-Verse set-top boxes are designed to work and sells a product incompatible remote control/IR. My question is this: How do I set up Windows Media Center, in order to avoid getting the error message "IR hardware not detected" when you install Windows Media Center and just use the remote control of the U-Verse that I prefer to use in the first place. Once understand you this point, please send the information to HP, At & T U-Verse and others. Thank you.

    Ron, I have something for you!

    and for all the people who have this problem :)

    Hi, I had the time of IR not detected in Windows 7 Ultimate with a TV wonder 650 card and a box of digital adapter from Verizon for my PC... Go on the road to installation and after the Media Center channel search, choose manual configuration. Choose the aerial signal (I aso picked after this analog) l. After he sought more, he finds no channels.  Do not be afraid. Just accept it and go to the main settings page in the Mediacenter. If I remember correctly, then select TV Guide. Choose Add channel. I added the channel 3.

    Since my Verizon box has no IR for the computer, I added the channel 3 for the media Center and I change the channels with my Verizon remote. All my stations in the Verizon box go to Channel 3.

    The story here is so, for some reason any Windows detects that only my box channel signal TV and you must manually configure the media center on the air, then go to settings and add the channel you want in the guide.

    Why the guide TV control which channel you can tune is beyond me, but the scanner locks all channels, it does not detect. they must be added manually in the guide.

    My TV works and looks okay now.

    It actually works!

    the only problem is that it is not in HD

    but there is something
