say i take 5pics and then want them on my pc, i plug it all in and then click on my digicam to see whats on the cams internal memory and then when i see my pics i then try to copy and then paste then all onto my pc at once but it comes up with an error message saying something about not enough memory? so i have to then copy and paste each picture seperatly?

Im guess its somthing to do with my digicam not having much memory? cant be my pc because i have 1gig of ram.

 

Sounds like the PC IMO.

You need to give us the EXACT error message and any errors from the event logs

(Right Click My Computer and choose 'Manage')

 

Yeah, the exact error message would be helpful

 

ok here we go guys, just took a few random pics and tried to copy/paste them all at once to get the message:




never ever get memory related messages only when i do this

 

What sizes are the individual images?

 

on photoshop its saying there 816x616, and one or two are 1632x1232 so pretty big/high quality them ones

 

Either that, or the usb cable can't handle that much of a data transfer in one hit

 

Most of my photos are 2048 x 1536 and 1Mb.

I can move a good few of those with no problem and I only have 500Meg memory.

Do you have any other applications open when you are trying to move pics?

How full is your hard drive?

How big is the Paging file (virtual memory)? Look in system properties.

Just realised you are connecting the camera by USB? I use a card reader.

I'll try mine on USB.

.

 

yeah sorry should have said im using a usb cable.

loads of space on my hard drive but i dont see what that has to do with it

 

I've just copied 44 photos total 40mb using USB (Canon Powershot camera)

My PC is 3.2ghz, 500mb ram, 80mb hard drive not much space, XP.

.

 

well my digicam is about 4 years old( kodak easyshare cx4200.

But then agian my pc is well speced and the cam its self is almost empty so im stumped here

 

ok it appears everyone is just as stumped as me

 

THe only thing I can think of, is that the photo size is too big for the usb cable to transfer across
