Emailing photo's.

[Glenos]

Hi guys

I have recently got a Vista Premium op' system pc, having had XP previously. I cannot for some reason send my photo's by Email as a dialog box pops up and says " Processing cannot continue". I have clicked all over the place and I cannot find anything that tells me about why this is. I have checked the cameras handbook also, nada. The camera is a decent quality Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX1. When I had XP I had no problems at all. Any help would be much appreciated as I need to get some piccies off to various people and get my holiday letting attempt on the road.

Thanks in anticipation. Glenos (technophobius-thickus )

Have a look on Microsoft's website and see if there's any info there? The only thing I'd say is to ditch Vista until it becomes a stable system, say in ten years time? Sorry....couldn't resist.

Hi, cheers for that, I'll have a look.
Yes, Vista does need dumping, It's hopeless.

do you mind me asking how you did it?? I have the same vista problem (and with my videos too..used to juts be able to puld in the litle video camera and click "email"!! now...the grandparents are suffereing without videos of the only grand-child anyway...the only way I can email photos is to save them as a file and then email as an attatchment...works fine...but love it if you've figured out a better way with Vista!

p.s. to everyoe who will now be chiming in to tell me I shouldn't have bouoght vista, etc...had NO CHOICE...I am in the US...my computer died. all new systems were being sold with vista (yes...I know, I know...could have gotten uses...could have shopped on some business site, etc....I needed a computer...and I needed to just be able to call Dell and have one shipped to my door so now...have Vista...which is not so bad...just the photo/video/movie maker issues!!)

Hey Musseta
Sorry to disapoint, but I'm going into 'public folders' (pictures) and attaching them pretty much the way you describe.
I spoke to Panasonic cameras and I told them that my model was, according to their web site, compatible with Vista. The guy on the phone said that that statement wasn't quite true as only parts of the software were compatible with Vista
I wish I could be of more help but to even just send a picture is a triumph for me

ahh...ok thanks for trying! I think my "compatable" video camera is not so either...will work the same if I save files...bujt no fun since I can't use all the cool photo and movie making stuff on Vista maybe they will come out with updates!
