Problem importing pictures from my camera?

I have always used my digital camera and this very computer to import pictures, but suddenly it has quit working. I plug in the cable to my USB, and no dialog box comes up, my camera reads "DSC"- so it knows it's connected, a check-marked box appears on my top rightand corner of my computer that reads "eject devices" or "Eject USB mass storage".

What is going on?

    Have you tried to use a Card Reader? Using a Card Reader is the most preferred way to download photos onto the computer.

    Step 1: Take that USB cable, chop it in little pieces and throw it in the garbage where it belongs! Buy a USB card reader and use it. Problem solved! I can't remember the last time I used a cheap piece of wire to load pics on my computer.

    If you have an SD card you can take that out of your camera and put into your computer, the input will normally be on the side of your computer. I don't know how to fix the problem other than that. Hope I helped!
