It should pop up like a flash drive.

I found my old Canon PowerShot A3100 IS and have taken some photos on it. However, I can't seem to figure out how to get the photos from the camera to my computer or phone. The Canon Connect app doesn't seem to have this model and I'm not great with technology. I've checked manuals but am still confused. Can anyone help? Thank you!</P> Mon, 18 Dec 2023 05:24:01 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/How-to-get-photos-from-Canon-Powershot-A3100-IS-to-computer/m-p/451564#M17898 cpini02 2023-12-18T05:24:01Z Re: How to get photos from Canon Powershot A3100 IS to computer/phone? https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/How-to-get-photos-from-Canon-Powershot-A3100-IS-to-computer/m-p/451628#M17899 <P>Welcome to the Canon Community Forum!<BR />Thanks for letting us know what Canon product you've got.

The computer should recognise the camera and allow you to transfer images.</P><P>Otherwise, you can use a card reader - your computer may have one.</P> Mon, 18 Dec 2023 15:47:29 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/How-to-get-photos-from-Canon-Powershot-A3100-IS-to-computer/m-p/451633#M17900 kvbarkley 2023-12-18T15:47:29Z Re: How to get photos from Canon Powershot A3100 IS to computer/phone? https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/How-to-get-photos-from-Canon-Powershot-A3100-IS-to-computer/m-p/451643#M17901 <P>Hi!
