You will need a RCA-USB adapter and a video capture software such as http://www.amazon.com/Easy-VHS-DVD-3-Plus/dp/B006GOFW3E/ref=sr_sp-atf_title_1_1?s=software&ie=UTF8&qid=1405401992&sr=1-1&keywords=roxio+easy+vhs+to+dvd

You can connect the camera directly to your computer and download pictures/videos with the included cord. I view any pictures from the camera on my computer and have found it quite easy.

Attach the USB cable to the camera and hook it to a computer. Go to the same place you would see your hard drives on your computer and the data should be visible there.

I transfer the video from tape to computer using a special cable which has a camera plug in on one and a 1394 p;ug on the computer end. ( Firewire cable )

I've had several Handycams but not an Apple. I do know, however, that Sony Handycams export through USB into a .mpg format. So, if you can import a .mpg or somehow convert them it would probably work just fine.I use Sony's Vegas Movie Studio to import mine by choosing File Import Camcorder Disc after dropping the disc into my DVD reader on my computer. Hope this helps you.Lynne

I haven't used it with the Sony Handycam but my Sony DV camcorder works great with it as well as my JVC handycam type camcorder. My Sony is an older model that uses DV tape. The JVC uses an SD card. Check with your owners manual and if it has a fire wire port on your handycam it should work just fine.

What are you having issues with? You can either plug in a micro USB cable to the camera and connect it to the computer or if you have a microSDHC card and a slot on your computer just put it in there. You might also want to make sure that the extention of the video file is compatible with the program you're trying to view it in. More info would be much better in order to better assist you.

Hi Dan, you can connect the camcorder to a computer via USB cable. From this link, https://docs.sony.com/release/HDR-CX250_CX260V_CX580V_PJ260_PJ260V_PJ580_PJ580V_PJ600_PJ600V_XR260V_guide_EN.pdf ,on page 174, youll find information on setting the camcorder for USB transfer. -Vincent

1. Use the USB attachment on the camera itself and plug into a USB port on the monitor. 2. Connect with the small HDMI cord that comes with the camera (connects to side of camera after you flip open the screen and plug into standard HDMI port). 3. If you use an SD card, remove from the camera and insert it into an SD slot. Hope this helps!

Go to "import video" on whatever software you're using and the mini cam should be there whatever it may be called.

You should be able to plug it in any USB port on your desktop or laptop. The computer will ask you what you want to do. Just open files and search for the video that's on the disk.

I do not believe you can but you can use a program like Snap Shot Video Wizard. The removable SD card makes it easy to transfer video to your computer or just use the on board USB connector! Even if you get it done the quality will be low.

Yes you can via USB using supplied software. As you can read in my initial review I did have issues establishing communication between PC and camera. Try different USB ports until the PC "sees" the camcorder.

You can either connect the camcorder to a computer using IEEE wire, I think they used to call it fire wire, and is the wire with a smaller connection than USB. Or you can use the other cables with the red, white and yellow ends and connect to a dvd or vhs recorder. All the wires come with the camcorder. The same wires you would use to connect to a tv to watch your tapes on the tv. You can access the owners manual for instruction at I think the Sony Support web site.

I purchased this camera just to transfer HI8 video tape to a computer --- but, you will still need a device to convert the video to digital format to be saved on the computer.

Certain cameras can hook up to a computer via USB cable. For others... like SONY... u may have to get the program. U might be able to search for it online. Sony has a website to where u can either purchase it or download it to ur computer. Or. last but not least, look in the manual for the camera. Hope this info works for u. If not, research further. Good luck.
