Windows 10: I can't download a Single Photo from my Camera!

One of the Best features that I miss about XP was being able to download 'Selected Photos' from my Digital Camera.

Now its All or Nothing, which means I have to go to my Photos and then delete the ones that I don't want.

This is a right Royal PIA, has anyone found a way round it.

Just got Windows 10 but can't import photos from my Canon camera.....how do I do this ?

Just downloaded windows 10 but having imported photos from my Canon camera once, I now find that I can't download again......any suggestions as to how I can import my photos ?

 

importing photos from camera to windows 10 computer

I have older photos on my computer. and they come up. But even some of the folders have nothing in them now. Where they were created when photo's were downloaded at other times. Now when I open them it has zbthumbnail

which i can't open.

But the photos from this recent download(which I haven't downloaded from this camera in quite some time)

are no where to be found. I tried both jpeg and jpg in which many photos come up but none from this recent download. and it did tell me they were downloaded. The photos on the camera that I didn't download from the 1st smaller download(which I check to erase
once dowloaded) I downloaded them and it showed the process and then that that were downloaded into a folder by month etc.. I didn't have these erased. When I unplug my camera and then plug it back in, it detects my device and searches for new photos, then
tells me these photos were already downloaded but there photos are also no where to be found.

I lost the first download because I had them erased from the camera once transferred.

I was hoping they were somewhere on my computer

 

You could connect your digital camera to a USB slot and in most cases with most manufacturers you will see your camera in My PC. Treat it like a hard drive and click your way to your photos folder. Once there, you can selectively drag-and-drop photos to your hard drive.

 

How do you transfer files from the camera to the PC?

I find that when I connect my camera (Canon T3i DLSR) to a Win 10 PC with a USB cable, it still shows up as an external drive. (With a special camera icon, though.) I can copy files in either direction.

I've mostly transferred files through a card reader in the past.

I have not used any software from the camera manufacturer, or any Microsoft utilities.

 

I haven't used any Camera Software but when I connect my Camera Via a USB, it asks if I want to Import Photos to the Photos Folder, with the only Two Choices of Import or Cancel.

 

Click cancel and look in This Computer It will be there as the posts above state you can then choose which photos to transfer or once you have imported your photos remove them from your camera.

 

Hi Bazz

Thanks You've Cracked it!

Problem Solved, so easy when you know how.

 

Thank you very much, I've got my head around it now.

 

Hi Many Thanks, I've got the hang of it now.
