My bad. I read that wrong. I thought you were asking how to transfer from the cam to the computer rather than the other way around. The problem is that the movie clip is compressed on the cam, and when it's transferred, it gets uncompressed. When you try to put it back to the cam, you can't compress it again so that the cam will recognize it. Sorry.

I tried to move the clip, but it didn't work. Just errored on me.

What program are you using? You should be able to use either ZoomBrowser EX (Windows) or ImageBrowser (Mac 9.2-10.2).

ZoomBrowserEx should transfer your movies (just like your photos), from the camera to the PC via USB.

I've never had a problem doing this with my IXUS400.

ZoomBrowser can only upload jpg's :-(. Try a cardreader.

He's not trying to UPLOAD from the PC to his camera. He's just trying to download movies from his cam to his PC. That threw me for a loop too.

Ok :roll:

What camera and ZoomBrowser version are you using, because my G3 and ZoomBrwoser combination downloads them perfectly.
