Code 10 when trying to open camera to download pictures

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo management program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).

Try NOT using a driver.

If you are trying to view on a computer then you will need to download and install the correct drivers on the computer for the camera.

How to easilydownload Pictures from Digital Camera

The easiest and best way to download pics is to use a separate card reader such as the one in this picture.

On the camera menu, select USB mode. Select PC. Connect the camera to your computer. The camera will be recognized as a mass storage device. You can open the camera's file within Windows Explorer and copy the files to the location of your chosing. The pictures will be located under the folder DCIM.

I had part of this problem. Click on the "add pictures" button, and find your camera on the screen in the upper left hand part. THen choose the photos you want to download. That is how I do mine. If that doesn't work, just keep trying. I had to try for a LONGGGG time to get mine to load. I used to have to pay to get my photos on a disc..

We have the same problem with our sanyo...does anyone know the manufacturers number...walmart would not take it back cause we threw away the box..so we are stuck with a camera that does not work and spent alot of money on it. any suggestions???

you have change the image quality to "NEF-(RAW) + JPEG basic"
on your camera so it will not be recognized by some programs so change this go to menu on your camera then shooting menu and go down to image quality and change it to something like "JPEG normal" but your other images will be bad quality if you try and blow them up because they are designed for E-Mail and other things

Start deleting pictures base on how good they are, importance and priority. Then by trial and error delete 50 pictures, download; 100 ... 200. Finally it download ... after 10-15 seconds wait. Total pictures deleted 1700 out of 4200. So there is a limitation on this type of camera with a 2GB chip, you have to stop taking pictures and change camera
chip when the total count reach 2500 + or - 50 pictures.
