camera down

Cleaned and cleared the courtyard...tweaked and torqued and prodded and pried - now 20,000 pounds of steel is leveled and lined up. Measured some diagonals and I seem to be way closer than close enough. Shifting all that weight successfully makes for a very satisfying day at the Field Lab. I got some more really good pictures, but.......

On the down side....I beefed up my internet security and downloaded window updates today. Now the computer doesn't recognize my camera. Ought to be fun figuring out what the dealeo is on this little glitch. Happens every time I start messing with the OS....Dang!

PROBLEM SOLVED!

    Better than getting caught by the Conficker worm I guess.

    I see you have a Powershot G9....

    Install the latest ZoomBrowser EX 6.3.1 Updater.

    thanks.... I'll give it a shot when I get back...hitting the road to Marfa this morning to renew my membership to KRTS and pick up some new solar panels in Alpine.

    a windows update has caused older versions of zoombrowser to stop working.

    On my computer I could not use zoombrowser. But, if I went to 'My Computer', the camera was listed there along with my other drives and I could browse the photos on my camera using windows explorer.

    I updated zoom browser and it started working again. The download is 134MB, so in the meantime you may find that your carera's contents are available by windows explorer and you can drag and drop the files.

    It's for reasons like this that I am now a Mac user! :)
