Digital Camera problems
Anyone good with troubleshooting? All of a sudden our camera (Nikon coolpix 4300) won't recognize when the USB thing is plugged in, so it won't upload.
Thoughts?? The manual is totally useless.

Re: Digital Camera problems
Did you try a different USB cable?
Could there be something wrong with the port on the computer or camera?
Maybe reinstalling the camera software would help. Is it possible that window that pops up when you plug in the camera got clicked to do nothing?
If the camera is connected to the computer, does it come up on My Computer as a removable disk?

Re: Digital Camera problems
Did you reboot the computer? Maybe turn the camera on & off? (Remember the camera is a computer too).
I wouldn't think you'd have to reinstall the software.

Re: Digital Camera problems
thanks for the suggestions ladies!
I am going to try everything and keep my fingers crossed! My dad has the same exact camera so he is looking for his USB cable so we can narrow down the problem.

Re: Digital Camera problems
Harry says to try a differtn USB port on the computer. Its most likely the computer rather than the camera that is the problem.
If that doesnt work...then try another USB cable.
The camera wasnt dropped...was it??

Re: Digital Camera problems
thanks Lisa!
I tried the different ports last night, and nuttin'. But I am going to try again!
I don't remember the computer being dropped. As of Saturday morning it was working because I took pics of our living room.

Re: Digital Camera problems
The camera is not even recognizing that the USB cable is plugged in - I can actually take pictures while the USB is plugged in.
I am hoping this means it's a cable problem, as I tried the different ports and still nothing!

Re: Digital Camera problems
I had a similar problem with my digital camera. I wound up reloading the software and using the "repair" function.

I think I am going to try and reload the software and see what that does.
Thanks!
