Hi, taper21!

So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know exactly which operating system is running on your computer (Windows or Mac OS X, and which version thereof), and whether you're trying to download photos via the USB cable or a memory card reader. That, and any other details you'd like to give will help the Community better understand your issue!

If this is a time-sensitive matter, our US-based technical support team is standing by, ready to help 24/7 via Email at http://bit.ly/ContactCanon or by phone at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666) weekdays between 10 AM and 10 PM ET (7 AM to 7 PM PT).

Thanks and have a great day!

Did you upgrade your operating system?

You might need to get a card reader.

I went to system restore and no luck.

Maybe never went back far enough.

Am always afraid of losing soething importand with that procedure but with this to fix I might as well go"way back" in "before" and see if that is the cure.

I went to 10th of month which was before trouble but restore outcome was-.

Could not do backup notice followed by.

Oxc0000056.

Whatever that means but, no luck at Restore.

I can have picture showing on camera screen and when turning on camera everything turns off.

Something in computer rejects the download.

Thanks,

I turned on computer today and flag tells me it will not turn on that Windows will fix trouble in computer which took about 20 minutes, when it shut down and started up.

So, I chcked an array of things in computer {pictures, ect.} and all "came up" so connected camers with cable to computer and same thing happened. It shut off camer as to downloading

Another thing.

After 15 minutes, or so, message in camera screen warns to Charge Batteries. I take them out and they show full charge in testing.

Thanks,

With this camera, operation is getting worse.

Put in charged batterys printer screen says as soon as turned on .

And turning on camera, it starts up and shuts off .with the charged up batterys.

After about 12 years of fair amount of using it needs being sent in to get "All "things checked or set asside and buy another.

Thanks for all help

I will run it back again on system restore and see if that helps.

Canon is power shot sx150is. w 7.If I need to contack you again.

12 years is a long time for a battery. Get an OEM Canon battery as a replacement.

Re: download pictures

taper21 — Wed, 31 Aug 2016 19:27:13 GMT

It takes two aa batterys which I have a dozen, or more, so changing is only a matter of minutes to put in charged up ones.

kvbarkley — Wed, 31 Aug 2016 19:30:11 GMT

Sorry, I thought only the 'A' cameras used AA batteries.

Well ,I set aside the cmera with a long life behind it and bought a new powershot sx150is but, just finished connecting up cable,turned on camera, and- As soon as tried to dowload picture that are in camera it "Turns"itself off !

ITo me it looks like computer must be the one to reject this operation.

So,As usual am back to needing advise on cure.

Have you tried reinstalling the Canon Utilities Software CD that originally came with the camera? If you don't still have the CD you may still be able to download the software from the Canon site.

One advice from forum , as to finding solution to camera turning offwhen start of a dowloading, was to go to http---- which I have been trying since last message but found every thing { not} related to my problem.

Talk about going around the block to cross the street in trying getting advise, outside of tyour forum, is a waste of time.

So, anymore ideas to try on my problem you can send to me.

Thanks,

Are you trying to write your own software to perform the download from the camera?

Re: download pictures

taper21 — Tue, 27 Sep 2016 03:49:15 GMT

recommented to upgrade operating system.

How is that done ?

Thanks
