You may not be able to download images when the camera is connected to a
computer if there are a large number of images (approximately 1000) on the
memory card. Use a memory card reader to download in that case.
Procedures for attaching the camera to the computer and placing it in
the correct mode for connecting vary between camera models. See the
Camera User Guide.
