Using the Camera with a Computer
4. Turn off the camera and
then use the USB cable
that comes with the
camera to connect it to
your computer.
• Connecting the camera to
a computer with a USB
cable starts charging of
the camera’s battery
(page 17).
• Make sure that you insert
the cable connector into
the USB/AV port until you
feel it click securely into
place. Failure to insert the
connector fully can result
in poor communication or
malfunction.
• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you
still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as
shown in the illustration.
• When connecting the USB cable to a USB port, make
sure you align the connector correctly with the port.
• Your computer may not be able to recognize the camera
if you connect via a USB hub. Always connect directly to
the computer’s USB port.
5. Turn on the camera.
• The first time you connect the camera to your computer with the USB cable, an
error message may appear on your computer. If this happens, disconnect and
then reconnect the USB cable.
• Charging continues even if the camera is turned on.
6. Windows 7, Windows Vista users: Click “Start” and then “Computer”.
Windows XP users: Click “Start” and then “My Computer”.
7. Double-click “Removable Disk”.
