I downloaded firmware update for my GoPro Video Hero with LCD BacPac. I followed the instructions and video on how to procedd and everything seemed to go well. The camera functions properly, but now my computer no loger recognizes the camera when it is attached via the supplied USB cable. I've tried different ports to no avail. I read on suggestion to reinstall the camera drivers on teh computer. The progblem is that, I didn't receive any drivers with the camera, and have no idea where to get them. Also, after I downloaded the firmware update to teh SD card and then to the camera, the instructions say to go ahead and erase it from the SD card. When I tried to erase the SD, the computer said the file is write protected. I looked all over to try to cvhange the attributes, but was unsuccessful. Any ideas beyond plugging in the USB cable really hard would be appreciated.

LCD do not work

TURN signal troubleshooting...

diego 8 months agoIf you can not turn on your camera LCD HD BacPac HERO2 and the battery is fully charged, then unfortunately there may be a communication failure between the camera and BacPac. We recently discovered a bug in the firmware that can cause this problem and have released a firmware update to allow the camera to repair the LCD.

This latest firmware update will also activate the 3D functionality with 2 HD cameras and our system HERO2 3D.Recuerda save your pictures and videos before the update.

To continue with the repair of LCD BacPac, please follow these steps:

1). Upgrade your camera with the latest firmware, v.70 connecting the camera to the computer with the GoPro Cineform Studio software running. If you have not previously completed the firmware update, follow this link:

I need to mount the camer upside for filming. How do flip the recording image? What GoPro needs is a reversed box so you mount upside down.

Ugrade your camera to the latest firmware (file and instructions available on their website). Once you've done this you'll be able to set the camera in the menu to record the video upside down. This enables upside down mounting and your video will be the right way up.

I just got my gopro today, i can do everything but take video and picture... all the buttons work. why doesnt it do anything?

Hi ensure you have a decent sized fast SD card incerted 8gb or higher.
press the select button on front until you have the symbol of the video camera at the top of the screen. (it is the symbol one in from the far right).
then press the button on top to start recording when the lcd screen is flashing you aare recording.

I hope this was useful.

My gopro surf hero won't record.it turns on,everything works except it does not record nor takes photos

Be sure to have fully charged batteries and format your SD card using the FAT format. Start by taking the batteries and SD card out, then reinserting after at least 30 second. Here's an unofficial GoPro user guide and tip sheet that I hope helps. Please only apply the GoPro firmware update to GoPro Hero Wide cameras - not the Hero 3 or standard lens models.

How to reset gopro hero3?

We've found the best way is to remove the SD card and the batteries for at least 30 seconds and then reinstall both and turn the camera on. Remember, that in addition to the data saved on the SD card, by plugging your camera into your PC with the USB cable you will be able to find any images or video stored on the camera's built in memory.

We've put together a tip sheet for the GoPro Hero 5 cameras but much of the information will help you get the most out of your Hero 3. It is important that you do not attempt to update a Hero 3 using the available GoPro firmware update as it is ONLY for wide angle Hero 5 cameras.

If we can answer any other GoPro support questions feel free to visit us at IcePlanter.com or contact GoPro directly.

Simply UNPLUG YOUR COMPUTER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY. Note that this does not mean just turning off your computer because modern computers don't really turn off when you press the power button as the motherboard still gets power.

First to explain, the motherboard is where all of hardware of the computer is connected to, including the USB ports. Sometimes the motherboard needs to be "rebooted" also because something can go wrong, i.e. all your USB ports suddenly stop working. The small microprocessor on the motherboard will reload the drivers and your USB ports should be back to recognizing all devices!

So first turn off your computer using Shut Down or pressing the power button and then UNPLUG it from the wall outlet. Let it sit for about a minute and then plug it back in.

Hope this helps someone fix that pesky "USB device not recognized" Windows error!
