    4. Insert camcorder USB connector into a USB port on the computer.


Step 2: In order to transfer files, you MUST do this!

        contents of your camera.
    2. Double-click the ‘Install this FIRST’ folder.
    3. Double-click the ‘Windows 3ivx Installer’ icon. Follow the instructions to complete the installation.
    4. Once the installation is complete, close all open windows.


Step 3: Saving your video clips to your computer.
    
1. Open ‘My Computer’ and double-click the ‘FLIPVIDEO’ icon.
    2. Double-click the ‘DCIM’ folder.
    3. Double-click the ‘100VIDEO’ folder. For each video you recorded, you will find a video file in .avi or mpg4 format.

    1. Open Windows Movie Maker (Start>Programs>Accessories>Windows Movie Maker).
