Trouble shooting
Q. I can't take videos or photos and the camera is also not recognized by my PC as a
removable drive.
A. It's likely that the SD card is full or the file allocation table (FAT) has become corrupt.
Format your card using an external card reader or try another card.
Q. The camera is not recognized as a removable disk or as a Webcam.
A. The operating system must be XP or greater. The camera must be connected using a
standard USB cable. Confirm that the cable is not defective by attaching another USBdevice
using the same cable. Do not use a USB hub. Try using another USB port. Defective cables
are the most common problems when the camera is not correctly recognized by the PC.
Q. An SD card is installed, but the camera is not recognized as a removable disk or by
mSetup.
A. If you are sure your USB cable is not defective, then it's possible that the PC USB drivers
are not working properly. Try connecting the camera before turning on the PC. After the PC
is turned on, the camera should be recognized as a removable disk. DriveCleanup.exe
(freeware) may also be able to fix USB corruption problems.
