I've had varying levels of success and/or frustration connecting my 
consumer electronics devices to various computers via USB over the 
years.  If the device has a removable memory card (SD, micro SD, etc.), 
the most reliable method I've found is to pull the memory card, plug it 
into a USB adapter, and plug the adapter it to a computer.
