How to transfer pics from Motorola Droid to computer?

[tuscany123]

I am not the most tech savvy person, so I apologize in advance.

I use Picassa to store my photos on my laptop. When I use my regular digital camera, I simply connect it to my computer and voila: the pics all upload from camera to Picassa. Easy.

Not so with my Droid! Is there a place online with step-by-step instructions on how to transfer from Droid to Laptop? I have tried 3 times, and keep getting an error message saying "import aborted". I can see all the photos from Droid in the tray on Picassa, but they never finish uploading. I have logged in and out of Picassa, but nothing. No photos.

Is it so hard? What am I doing wrong?

I plug the USB in my droid, then to lap top. Then I select "mount" like I am prompted to do by my Droid. I really like my Droid camera, but if it is always this hard to transfer files, what is the point?

Sorry for the rant. I am just frustrated. I guess I just want to plug things in, and then have them work!

Thanks in advance

You are doing it right as far as I can tell. Plug in the USB, pull down the notification tab, and mount. Only thing I can think of is maybe reboot the phone.
