idk) can someone please help? Thank you so much in advance. So i tried updating the drives, but it said it was unsuccessful (i assumed there weren't any newer drivers, but. One interesting thing i found was when i go to device manager and properties on my card reader, teh version was years newer than when i device managered the reader on my pc. The card reader also works perfectly on my brother's vista, but i don't see a reason it shouldn't work on xp pro. I plug it in, and it does acknowledge that it's there (it says new device insatalled and when i go to device manager, it shows up there with name and all), but it just doesn't show up as a drive letter.

Then yesterday i got a card reader (hoping that would solve my problem), and the same exact thing is happening. I'm running Windows XP Pro on my pc, but when i plug my camera into my brother's Vista laptop, it shows up perfectly. I know i have that drive letter activated, because i have a sandisk 4gb flash drive that always creates a drive letter (and i'm plugging them both into the same USB hub). Fast enough for gaming, fast enough for pictures.I got a kodak camera for Christmas, and when i plugged it into my computer, i was hoping it would be as easy as> go to My Computer and go into camera and copy paste my pics and vids, but my camera does not create a drive letter. Rather than buying one from Canon, I use one that came with my kids Nintendo system. Either way - the card stays in the camera.

20 pictures from an event - I'll just use the WiFi and leave the cable in the drawer. When I uploaded a full vacation - I used the cable. 10 from Win.7 every time I connect my camera or card reader to the p.c., it does recognize the camera/card reader and states that I have 38 photo's there, when I select import photo's it comes up with ' there is a problem', I still have the original Cannon and Nikon programmes to import photo's to the P.C. The faster alternative is using the EOS Utility and connecting with a cable as noted by the previous poster. I'm usually doing other things - so I set it up, let the transfer run, then come back to it. You can connect your camera to your home WiFi, or you can create WiFi hot spot with your camera and connect your computer to that. Make sure your camera and your computer are on the same WiFi network. This isn't blazing fast - so if you're taking 1,000 pictures a day, it might not be for you. The program automatically creates folders based on that and organizes by date. the SD card is I created a default naming convention and location for pictures. I prefer the perception of control with EOS Utility. Image Transfer is supposed to be passive and automatically upload new images when your camera and computer are on the network. Canon EOS Utility (3.12) and/or the Canon Image Transfer Utility.
