Re PowerShot SX510HS: is there a proper protocol for disconnecting the camera from the USB cable?

With my previous camera (not Canon) instructions said I must "safely" disconnect the camera from the USB cable inserted into the back of my computer.  What is the safe way to disconnect my new Canon...can I just pull the cord out?

Cakbu,
Just make sure you turn off the camera first, then disconnect the USB cable. You should be fine.

  • Is there. A trick for resizing pictures saved from the web as wallpaper?

    I'm use to using pictures taken from my iPhone n ipad as wallpaper, and I can take a picture of my iPad screen.
    When I try to use the web saved pictures they appear too big for my wallpaper.
    Even the pinch and move doesn't seem to allow me to get it small enough.

    You may also want to bear in mind, many photo off the internet are tiny, as in smaller than your iPad screen.
    If your iPad's resolution is 1024 x 768 (which is the resolution of an iPad 2) and you download some image from the net that's 400 x 300 pixels, it's gonna zoom in and it's not going to look great because another part of the whole resolution thing is pixels per inch. You get an internet photo with 72 pixels per inch and try to put them on an iPad that wants to show a couple hundred pixels per inch it will be fuzzy and not pretty.
    The iPad's programming tells it that all the screen must be covered, so it zooms in to make the horizontal or vertical edges touch, which often leaves you only the ability to move your photos up and down or left to right.
    Basically, even with the various apps and such, they can only do so much. Give them an image with not much to work with and the results likely won't be as good as if when you give them a high resolution image.
    If you have a computer you can look at your images there and see their size. Right click on them and check their properties and it gives you the numbers. If you do work with the apps and the results aren't what you hoped, this can be a way to determine if it's the apps' fault or the material you're giving it to work with.

  • Firewire issues? Is there a proper way to remove a firewire from the port?

    Hello,
    I am trying to "Log and Capture" and also "Print to Video."
    My PowerMac G5 cannot "initiate" my camera, even though it has been without much problem.
    I regularly have to plug and unplug my firewire though. I thought maybe this might be the issue.
    Can unplugging a Firewire regularly and back again cause the computer to not be able to see it? Perhaps it gets "stripped" or something?
    Thanks!

    Well, I can connect another firewire to the port for an external drive and it's working fine. So it does work with some other hardware devices.
    But when I plug in the firewire that comes with the video camera, it will not show in Final Cut Pro (nor I-Movie either). I also tried a spare firewire for the video camera. Neither worked.
    When I look at the camera, the "DV in iLink" appears on my lcd screen, so I believe it must be on the computer's side that the Firewire isn't connecting right.
    I do however believe my Mac can see the Firewire though, even if Final Cut Pro can't. I believe that because when I click on "About this Mac" and then "More Info," then scroll down to Firewire, I see this:
    HDR-HC3:
    Manufacturer: Sony
    Model: 0x38013E
    GUID: 0x800460104D5E1BE
    Maximum Speed: Up to 100 Mb/sec
    Connection Speed: Up to 100 Mb/sec
    Sub-units:
    DV-VCR Unit:
    Unit Software Version: 0x10001
    Unit Spec ID: 0xA02D
    This means it's working fine right? So maybe this is a Final Cut Pro settings issue?

  • When I add songs to my iPod, they go on there. But when I disconnect my iPod from the computer and plug it back in the songs never stay on there. How can I fix this?

    Just recently I've noticed my apps wasn't working, they would just blink and then exit out. So I searched on here to find out what I should do, and I seen that someone said to restore the iPod. I did just so, but before I did I made sure I backed it up so I still had my files. But when I plugged it in there was no option of restoring from backup. I didn't know why, but I just added all of my old songs from before. However, when I unplug it (after my songs have been added) and plug it back in.. My songs aren't there anymore! This is very frustrating because it's done this to me 3 times and I'm not sure what to do.

    The same thing happened to me when I updated to the new software when iPhone 4S came out. 

  • What's the proper protocol for a reset on my ipod touch 4g?  iOS 6 has totally jacked it up and it will no longer do anything but crash, and won't sync with itunes wirelessly or by cable.

    What's the proper protocol for a reset on my ipod touch 4g?  iOS 6 has totally jacked it up and it will no longer do anything but crash, and won't sync with itunes wirelessly or by cable.
    It's a 64G ipod touch and was fine till Apple told me to upgrade to ios 6.  Now most of my apps crash, my music won't play and I just get a white screen when I hit Music.
    When I try to sync to itunes it acts like it's going to sync and appears to recognize the ipod, but it's grayed out and has an update circle by it that spins for a while until itunes eventually freezes alltogether.  Is there a  way to go back to ios 5 after a erase and reset?

  • Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu in Mavericks?

    Before Mavericks, I was able to go from the Finder to the top menu "Go" -> "Utilities", or Applications or Home… and a new window would open.
    Now I have to manually open a new window to avoid loosing my existing window.

    Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu?
    First, as others have already stated.....make sure the checkbox is deselected for "open folders in tabs instead of windows" in Finder Preferences.
    If you're like me and don't like tabs very much, there is a way to make folders always open in windows with a simple click (I'm using Mavericks 10.9.5).  Go to a root folder (for example, the Documents Folder), open it, and select View > Hide Toolbar, then all folders within that root folder will open in a new window.
    As an alternative method, any folder can be opened in a new window by holding down either Command Key while clicking the folder. But sooner or later you will forget to hold down that key, and then clicking on a folder will open in a tab (which will automatically resize the window and cause much aggravation).
    The Hide Toolbar trick will also work with any folder present on the Desktop. It will make all folders inside that folder open in new windows.
    To make the Applications Folder open in a new window when opening it from the menu bar at the top of the screen, you will have to open the main hard drive folder and use the Hide Toolbar trick. This will cause all folders inside it to open in new windows.
    Hope this helps.

    If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it.

  • I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?

    Hello everybody,
    I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?
    I share one Itunes account with other people from my family and one person would like to keep the same songs on the new Ipod as the ones which were on the old one.
    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Hello Chris,
    Thanks for your answer. I was hoping for an easier answer. Too bad there is no drag and drop solution, it would have been much easier.
    Thanks for answering so fast.

  • I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

    Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
    BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

  • Is there a way to actaully talk to someone at apple whereby it doesn't cost money? I downloaded an app and now the stupid phone says that there is compass interference and to move away from the interference. Well, I am in the middle of a field. Now what?

    Is there actually a way to talk to a service person at Apple where you don't have to shell out money? I downloaded an app that cost $9.99 and when I tried to use it I get a message that says there is compass interference and to move away from the interference or wave the phone in a figure 8 pattern. Well, now I have a sore arm from constant waving out in the middle of a field and it appears that is going to cost $29 to talk to a person. Does anyone have any idea why this is occuring? As a side note, I can use a normal compass with no issues so it is the phone. From a customer perspective, this is poor customer service.

    First of all, an idle threat is one that a person has no intention of carrying out. In the past 16 months that I have had this phone I have become less and less satisfied and found that it is like much of today's technology....over rated and under performing. The one thing that I have never been accused of is not wanting, or not giving help but when a company makes itself unavailable to resolve issues and leaves it to forums run by users helping users, it speaks more about the company than anything else they could do. As I said, I do not make idle threats and I did not threaten you in any way. Guess I'll call this topic done with as it is not and was not the intent to get a war started

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases directly to the iPod by:        
      Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise you will have to sync from your iTunes library.

  • I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)

    I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)
    Let me explain:
    In the clock app for ios 6.0.2 I am a little confused. It allows you to go into your music library, and create a ringtone using any songs you choose. However, I cannot find a way to remove a song from this list, just like I cannot delete one of the preset ringtones (which I'm not trying to do, but just as an example)
    Thanks for your time! If you need more information just ask.
    (I believe both my iPod and iTunes are up to date)

    I believe you just are able to delete them from iTunes.
    Hope it will be helpful
