Just tried that then, it says "the computer cannot detect the scanner or camera. Please make sure the device is turned on and is properly connected to the computer" :\

It's windows im using, the camera does show up with the title of the camera (350D) when i click on that icon it opens up but with no pictures in there :\ I've only just got it and yesterday was the first time i used it, do i have a fault? :\
