Why do pictures not transfer when I forward?

Why do I keep getting an error when I try to transfer pictures from my camera to my computer?

• When I try to upload pictures onto my camera from my nikon coolpix s50c, I get message that says I'm missing files. Here is the message: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/uzuzuchan/fgjghjghj.png The camera doesn't show up in the removable storage section in My Computer, and when I try to use the PictureProject software that came with the camera, it says the camera is 'not connected'. What should I do?

• Answer:

  Okay ... uninstall the programs that came from Nikon. Then when you reinstall the programs, be sure your camera is not connected to your computer. The follow the instructions to the letter as you are walked through the installation. Then after you reboot the computer and it is up and running, plug in the camera using the USB cord and then turn on the camera. But why not avoid all this and do what the photographers do. Buy a nice little card reader for under $10 and just use your basic computer skills to copy all your files to your computer
