I lost my CDs for my digital camera in the process of moving and I need a program that I can pull my pictures off of my camera.

I want the best program that is free...

thanks

I wish that it worked for this camera...

I plugged it in yesterday to have windows update find the best driver and installed it, but when I cut the camera on, it doesn't bring up the window that allows me to get them off.

If you have the proper driver then all you have to do is look under my computer and there should be a removable storage drive that is your camera. Then you can go in there and decide which pictures you want to take off etc. But if you want a pretty program that gets the pictures off your computer and organizes them for viewing etc, then I also recommend Picasa.

That's not true for all cameras. Olympus cameras for example do not operate as a removable storage device when you plug them in to a computer. It's damn annoying, especially since the olympus software is not free to download from the olympus website. There is one guy who wrote his own software for olympus cameras, but i forget the name or where i found it at.

His camera may be the same way.

my HP camera has an option to allow it to act like removable storage or act like a camera for use with their software.

i've had a Olympus C-720 and C-740 and they both acted as removable storage devices

If you don't have the right driver for your camera then the only way you're gonna get it is if someone else has your exact camera or through Apex support because I can't find any working driver for that camera on the web.

the olympus c3030 and those series of cameras only worked with their software.
and they weren't cheap cameras either. took really good pictures. i loved the camera except that i couldn't get pictures off it unless i was at my own computer with their software.

my olympus C-5050 works fine as removable storage, in both linux and windows

does the camera use a card or internal memory? just get a card reader if it uses a card
I googled "apex 4330z" and it looks like it uses a cf card, so yeah..

1) I know that Ann stands for anniversary....people used to say that to him back in the day to get on his nerves...you should know that since you have been on here for around 4 years.

2) I googled searched this problem for about an hour and didn't find much except that i can find generic drivers for the camera.

I might just have to get a card reader. I picked up a new USB cord just to check to make sure it wasn't that today while I was in Greensboro. This camera isn't detected as a removable storage device.

Ok this camera is bassackwards...

There are several settings you can have the camera on before you cut it on. One of them is the PC setting. Now you would think that if you cut it on when it is in that setting, that it should work.....well nope

I had to cut the camera on when it is in the "image view" mode and then change it to the USB mode before the computer would recognize it...

it still doesn't recognize as a removable storage device, but oh well...it works and that is all that matters
