Okay here is the problem,
My computers USB ports won't work with my digital camera or MP4 player anymore, they just make this different sad little noise when I try to plug them in, they still work with ipods being plugged in but for my digital camera (being my main priority ) it won't let me access photos or get them off the camera or the videos either. Anyone know how to fix this or what to do, I don't know much about computers so layman's terms please hehe thanks to anyone that can help

p.s my laptop is a fujitsu computers siemens - amilo - intel centrino duo - windows vista

It could be the USB cable for your camera went bad. Try replacing it with a new or different one.

It could also be the camera. I have a camera that refuses to use the cable that came with it so I invested $7 in an external 53-in-1 memory card reader. It is slightly larger than a business card, has four card slots and connects via usb. XP sees the reader as 4 hard drives when it is plugged in. When I put the card in the Windows picture viewer starts up and shows all of the pictures on the card. I can copy or move them from the card to the computer or to another hard drive or flash drive. I can copy or move pictures FROM the computer or flash drive to the card.

Quick and easy, that's the ticket.

Try replacing or updating your drivers for the camera. If that does not work uninstall your camera software and then re-install. The computer should do the rest.
