How do you transfer the video on the camera to a computer? The videos do not show up only photo.

I think I had a hard time as well. I tried to view the video from the camera and it didn't work, so I fooled around with it to transfer the video onto my computer and it did work. It took a long time. I couldn't tell you how, I just saved under a bunch files and found one that worked. Hope this helps.

The camera acts like a flash drive when you connect it to the computer, and you can go into the folders and copy all the pictures and videos. They should all be there and copy easily. If you use the software for downloading there is a video option to download into that tool. I do it using drag using Windows Explorer and drop to MY PICTURES in the folder I like.

You have to manually do this in the file system in the camera. Plug this in to your computer and look for the videos in the camera file system and cut and paste to your computer. My suggesting would be to send the camera back if you can. This was a terrible purchase and I should have returned mine!!

You need a firewire to go from the camera to the computer and the computer needs to have the correct plugin to use the firewire. Most computers do not have this capability (plugin port). Our son had added it to our computer and provided me with the necessary program (Nero 8) to copy videos. No software for this video camera have to do it the long way. You can consult like Best Buy's GEEK Squad or someone with that knowledge, we just happen to have a computer guy in the family. Be very careful the PINS on the plug-in on the camera BEND VERY easy and then you cannot do anything!! Hope this helps.:)

Hi William,to transfer files to the computer, you would need to turn on the camcorder. A USB connected or Mass Storage message will show on the LCD display once camera is recognized. We suggest using PlayMemories Home for faster import and edit of files. Thanks_Mitch

Connect the usb chord to the pc, the camera will show up, select the camera meneu and you will see the option to connect to pc, click yes, then the videos will show up wth an option to download all, or one, or whatever ones you want. This may take a few minutes, then you can play them with either canon software ot media player.

The camera should have come with a cable that plugs into the camera at one end and the computer at the other. You just plug it in and then turn on the camera and it will upload a program to your computer and then a little window will appear that asks what task you want to perform. You choose download pictures and it will put them in your computer. Only takes a few seconds!

Sure! Easy! Just connect the camera to your computer using the enclosed USB cable. You'll see a folder for the video files, and another folder for still shots. Simply drag and drop into your preferred editor.

That camera only has composite video output. The only way to save it to your computer is to buy a video capture device:Diamond VC500 USB 2.0 One Touch VHS to DVD Video Capture Device For Win7, Win8 and Win10

The pictures are stored on the computer rather than on the camera (it has no internal memory card). I guess once you've finished filming you could disconnect it and edit the movie further if you need to. Just tried and it works on my PC.
