The Canon manual says not to read or write from the flash memory when the camcorder is connected to a computer (okay for photos but not video). Doesn't explain why or what happens but suspect it can corrupt file structure and prevent data from being read back to camcorder later. Capturing files directly from the memory card using a card reader appears to be okay as I've seen that referenced on Canon's website (but not mentioned as an option in the manual).

The drivers you need to find are pretty easy to download if you know what components you have. I'm answering this on mine I finished up a few months ago. The only driver I haven't found yet is for the webcam and they don't have a manufacturer listed anywhere. If you have any questions let me know.

Sorry, I'm no help. I have never tried to use the video aspect of the camera. I do like the camera tho'!

I'm still running 7 but I checked the Logitech website and the specs DO list Windows 8 as supported. Should be good. http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/hd-webcam-c615

windows 7 should automatically recognize it. if it doesn't then the usb port might need to be enabled or is not working properly

That is what I did with this camcorder and a video capture software. BUT!! I bought a refurbished one of these and it ruined one of my tapes. bye bye precious home videos.

If it doesn't recognize it I would return it for a different one. It is probably the programing. Or try dumping ur system cache. But save all ur data to a memory stick first.

I have been tracking this issue also, but I don't have the new camera yet. I just put together s system with the same processor and memory, and installed Sony VMS 10.From what I have heard, the problem is capturing the video from the camera in it's native format. Once its in a suitable format, it will handle the video.Check the forums at sony here:http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/forums/default.asp

I ended up using standard webcam drivers in Windows 8. The manufacturer's website was pretty bad and I never did find good software made for this.

Hi Lawanna, yes the camcorder is compatible with the Windows 8. Thanks_Mitch

It appears that this is a software issue and not a hardware issue. Without knowing what webcam program you are using it is impossible to determine a solution.

Hello, yes windows 7 can read it, but I order several of this camera and one of them never work, we change the batteries but nothing, the first one that I bought did work really well and the videos were easy to see with the memory card. I hope it helps.

I am running it with Windows 7 32-bit without any issues. I did download the webcam software from Logitech, I have v12.10.1113. The drivers are 12.10.1110.

I cannot help: I had a different camcorder and Windows 7. I transferred about 100 tapes with no problems, completed the work about a year ago, and since then use this port only for one old backup external hard drive that need Firewire port.

Not sure of your problem. I have a mac and win 7 and it works. Instead of using the cam and the USB cord, try using the SD card directly into the computer.
