Connecting the Camera to the PC

Preparation:
Set the camera’s power/mode switch to OFF.







NOTES
• When the USB cable is connected, turning on or off the camera causes malfunctions of the PC.

• Connect the camera directly to the PC, not through the hub.

• Do not use an extension USB cable.

• Saving the wrong kinds of files in a recording medium or deleting files or folders from a recording medium can cause problems with the operation of the camera. When it is necessary to delete a file from a recording medium, delete it through the camera. Also, do not move or rename folders and files in the medium on PC.

• Never disconnect the USB cable while the access/charge lamp on the camera lights or blinks.


1 Create a folder to back up files into.





2 Set the camera’s power/mode switch to STANDBY/ON.



3 On the camera, move the set lever to
\/ / /\ to select [PLAYBACK ON PC],
then press down.

4 Double-click [EVERIO_HDD] or [EVERIO_SD].



5 Select the folder that you want to back up, and drag & drop it into the folder you created in step 1.
• SD_VIDEO:
Folder that contains video files. If you want to back up fi les individually, open this folder, and drag & drop folders such as [PRG001] one by one.
• DCIM:
Folder that contains still image fi les. If you want to back up fi les individually, open this folder, and drag & drop files such as [PIC_0001.JPG] one by one.




When you have finished operation

Always follow the procedures below when disconnecting the camera, or turning off the camera/computer power.
Failing to do so may cause damage to the camera and computer.

1) Confirm that the access/charge lamp on the camera does not light or blink. (If the access/charge lamp lights or blinks, wait until it is turned off before proceeding.)

2) Double-click the [Safely Remove Hardware] or [Unplug or Eject Hardware] icon in the status bar.

3) Select [USB Mass Storage Device] or
[USB Disk], and then click [Stop].

4) Click [OK].

5) Disconnect the USB cable.

6) Turn off the camera and PC.

please use youre usb and try again..that is the only way I charge mine

Another solution is to make sure you are using the usb cable that came with the camera. For some reason, if I use any other, the computer won't recognize the camera. It's the one with the magnet. In fact, mine has two magnets on it.

Check the PDF manual on the software disk to be sure Nikon Technical Support for confirmation- this is a possible replacement situation
