    Solution

      When connecting the camcorder to a computer via a USB cable, if the camcorder is not recognized by the computer, please check the following points.

      • Remove and reconnect the USB cable, and then turn on the camcorder again.

      • Connect the USB cable to the computer properly.
      - If there is more than one USB terminal on the computer, try to connect the USB cable to the other USB terminals.
      - Disconnect any USB devices other than the camcorder, keyboard, and mouse.
      - Connect the camcorder and the computer directly with a USB cable. Operation using USB hubs is not guaranteed.
      - If software is running in the background, exit them and connect the camcorder again.

      - Do not disconnect the USB cable.
