    Canon Rebel EOS XT not opening in windows 8

    thing is I know the camera works. I know the camera loads to the card. I know the card can be read by other computers because I did all this on my older computer.

    Canon Rebel EOS XT not opening in windows 8

    are you saying . . . you know windows 8 and the older canon rebel xt's and that "there is no inherent reason" why they should not work together. If you know they DO work together could you suggest what I might try to get mine to work together . . .?

    Canon Rebel EOS XT not opening in windows 8

    I have an older Canon Rebel EOS XT. I have the software. I have a ubs cable. But the software doesn't seem to load properly and I can't get any of the images to download from the camera to the computer. I am working with a new Acer desktop and Windows 8. Is there any hope . . ?
