Clive Murray-White Posted May 25, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 25, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I normally download my pics into Lightroom by connecting the USB cable to my computer - but recently all I get is an acknowledgement that it recognises that the camera is connected but "no pictures can be found". I then take the card out of the camera and get Lightroom to have a look at that - works perfectly. Is there any explanation for this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Murray-White Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share #2 Posted May 26, 2012 Although I have no explanation - the USB cable is working properly again! not in the same port - all very mysterious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestMichigan Posted May 29, 2012 Share #3 Posted May 29, 2012 Clive, the near ubiquitous USB interface, in spite of all that it does well, isn't without semi-random peculiarities or odd misbehaviours now and again. Further! even if it was that rare gem of perfect tech, it would still rely on that gem of imperfection the 'Personal Computer' for us to interact with it and thus would still be perceived as peculiar or misbehaving occassionally, anyways! :-D Sincerely Richard in Michigan Although I have no explanation - the USB cable is working properly again! not in the same port - all very mysterious.

DWatts Posted June 9, 2012 Share #8 Posted June 9, 2012 Although I have no explanation - the USB cable is working properly again! not in the same port - all very mysterious. Had the same problem Normally used a cable to connect camera to PC so put the card straight into the reader fitted on the computer. Wiorked fine. Contacts or wire problem - wire now in bin. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiorked fine. Contacts or wire problem - wire now in bin. Good luck. On Friday I scheduled a performance review for the USB cable, first thing Monday morning - just to give it time to think about things over the weekend!! I did suggest that it consider it's position very carefully and the implications of being a fine piece of German technology that could be replaced by a $5 Chinese rip-off. Out of kindness I let it sit next to the Fuji usb rather than my wife's Panasonic, as I realised Leica and pany have fallen out. Of course there is the distinct chance it gets grumpy with the Fuji.
