How to transfer files from camera?

External Since: May 29, 2004 Posts: 4

How can I arrange for the automatic opening of the option for clicking "Copy
pictures to a folder on my computer using Microsoft Scanner and Camera
Wizard"?...that option and others - - - View slideshow....Print
pictures...Open folder to view files and Take no action - - - used to be
shown under a window entitled Removable disc G: as soon as I connect camera
to pc and turn it on...for some reason its stopped doing that automatically
today. I'm using XP.

I can still access the pics via My Computer/Removable disc
G/DCIM/100Olymp...

Thanks.

To change how your computer handles multimedia content

Notes

To open My Computer, click Start, and then click My Computer.

Your removable storage device must be attached to your computer for it to
appear in the My Computer folder.

1. Open My Computer.

2. Under Devices with Removable Storage, right-click the device you want,
such as a digital camera or CD-ROM drive, and then click Properties.

3. On the AutoPlay tab, click the multimedia content type you want to
change.

4. Under Actions, click the action you want Windows to perform when it
detects the media type you selected.

5. On the Autoplay tab tick the option at the bottom that says "Prompt me
each time to choose an Action.

This information is in the XP Help.
