    I have a Canon 350D. I'm trying to upload photos to my laptop. My laptop had virus last week and i now need to download software to upload photos. I've moved house since we got camera and i can't find the disk that came with the camera. When i try download the software from canon website i can't find an operating system to work.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks

    Can you not just remove the card from the camera and connect it to the computer via a card reader or a card slot. There shouldn't be a need for camera specific software.

    Aya as above you shouldn't need the specific software to upload. I assume you're connecting the camera to the USB wire.

    If you go to Tesco's for example they will do card readers for very little amount. I think I paid €2 for a multi card reader. Technika brand but it still works :D Then you just plug the usb wire in and it reads it as a storage device.

    I don't have either a card reader or a slot for a card on my computer. I have uploaded photos from other canon cameras and olympus cameras on the computer before the virus but i just thought maybe they were using the software i had from the olympus.
    Thanks though, i might have to invest in card reader but was hoping to get it sorted today coz there is special offer on Photobox ending at midnight tonight so i wanted to get some photos printed.

    I have a 300D and the software that came with it is zoombrowser.

    Google zoombrowser ex, it's free as far as I can see.

    I downloaded Zoombrowser but it doesn't seem to be running. Is there a certain website to download it from? I tried uploading photos on my sisters laptop and it's not working either.

    Does the camera not show up in "my computer" as another drive ?? Go into menu on camera , go to last tab on right and scroll down to Communication and set to PC connection

    Buy a cheapo CF card reader (€10) on fleabay. Simplest way to transfer your shots from the card to the computer - much quicker than USB cable to camera.

    I thought all cameras were compatible with microsofts image importing wizard. Any camera should just connect to the computer and offer pics for transfer but I have had issues with that particular "wizard" before...

    I use the 400D without any Canon software for example.
