I took some pictures a long time ago and I just saved them on my computer and deleted them from my memory card.

Now I want to transfer the images back to my camera so that I can bring the memory card to get the images developed, but I can't.

Any idea as to why?

It may be easier to just burn the pics to a CD and take those to the place you're developing. i used to upload pics to be printed to my cheapo 16MB card, just in case i left it at the store, but the CDR method is a lot better. Just make sure you close the session so that it can be read.

most new camera software allows you to "upload" pics/vids TO your camera. If not, just get a $10 card reader and copy them to memory card that way.

What is Zoombrowser?

What is Zoombrowser?

It's the cataloging program that comes with Canons. The default zoom mode view is similar to iPhoto.

I never got the Zoombrowser CD. I got a Camera Suite CD from ArcSoft. Are there any other ways of saving onto the memory card?
Why'd they have to make it so hard?? i could just drag and drop images on my memory card using sony's cybershot!

When you connect the camera to your PC and it mounts as a separate drive, you can't simply drag-and-drop?

 

[beerbelly]

Thanks demi and everyone that helped. Demi actually started this thread for me. And I found the Zoombrowser CD in between all the manuals in the box. Thanks!

Not on my S40. i can browse it and view images on it and download them, but i can't upload or even copy and paste files to it.

While on the topic, Canon owners should visit www.powershot.com to see if there's a firmware update for your camera. There was an update for my S40 that fixes the problem of corruption of files while shooting in continuous mode. Unfortunately for me, when i finally got to the page that had the download link, i forgot about it and when i got back, Firefox had crashed. My serial is logged with their server, so when i went back to download the update, it said my firmware was already updated. Looks like i'll be calling Canon.

Doesn't it detect it as a portable drive?? Any device that doesn't support drag and drop is shit in my opinion. I should be able to modify said contents anywhere I have access to a pc. Proprietary software SHOULD NOT be necessary.

Not the S40, and neither did my friend's A95. A flash card reader is really the way to go anyways, as transferring via the camera is much slower.
