Dear June,
Yes, you might be correct. The cord may be faulty. Take out the memory card and insert it into a memory card reader. Then connect the card reader to your computer and see whether you can download the photos.

Well, we are having problems with the screen turned black when we try to take a picture, just like others on this website. The LCD works for the menu, but not for picture taking. It quit in the middle of the trip to Monterey. As for your problem, can you remove the chip and put the chip into the computer. That's what I just did and I copied all the pictures we took (until the black screen problem struck yesterday) and moved them to my computer that way because we can't find the cord we bought to transfer. Try that! It worked for us! Good luck to you...

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am sorry to inform you that the camera's driver is only suitable for PC. A MAC version of the driver does not exist.
Try and use a help of a friend with a PC to do what you need to do.

SOURCE: I have not got the Disc to download the software

Hello Tea22me,
The Driver to will depend on your Operating system.
For XP and above,you should not need any drivers for the camera. If you are still on windows 98, then please download the Mass Storage Device drivers from the following link:
http://www.opendrivers.com/driver/235333/vivitar-vivicam-5385-mass-storage-device-driver-windows-98-free-download.html

Please let me know if this works for you.

Regards,
Srinivas

Vivitar ViviCam 5385 Digital Camera drivers

You don't need a driver.
The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa.
