Can you just plug a jump drive into it to save your pictures or do you have to connect it directly to a computer everytime you want to save something?

To transfer the pdfs you must connect a USB cable, included, to a PC. It will the act like a Mass Storage device like a flash drive so that you can then transfer the pdfs. if you are looking for easier transfer you may want to wait for the BB Sync that should be out soon. It will also have Bluetooth and more memory for storage. I personally have no problems connecting it and then moving them to dropbox.

You can hook it directly to your computer through the USB port and then edit images or save to CD or DVD as you choose. It gets it's power through the USB cable. You can also put an SD card (camera type) in the back and use it as a stand alone unit. It has an AC adapter and this is the way I prefer. I then remove the card and transfer everything to my PC for editing and saving.

I think any flash memory card reader will do the trick provided it will fit/ connect to your computer. Get one with plenty of memory storage say 2GB so that you don't have to download to your main computer right away.

You first have to download the software provided with the camera onto your computer. Included was a cord that plugs into computer and them into the camera. The camera downloads the pictures automatically and asks you where you want to store them. I use Dropbox which is a free storage site

Yes, it so easy, just plug in the USB cable to your computer and the modified small USB into your camera. turn the camera on and it will start to import the photos.

For a Mac, I simply connect it to my computer and turn on the camera. It automatically up loads.

Hmmm.. I'd have to say no to that one. It's like asking can you transfer a photo from one digital camera to another directly. I'd say you need a PC to do the transfer.

Hi Thomas, the camcorder cannot save files directly on a computer while recording. It also uses the built in USB cord for transfer. Thanks_Mitch

I was able to save all pics and some of my desktop items. But your best to move everything to a flash stick, or a disk of some sort just to be safe.

The USB cable can be used to connect and download from the camera to a computer, hard drive or recorder. That's not the easiest way for most folks though. It's easier to pull out the memory chip and stick it in your computer to transfer it.

As Kevin said it will connect like a flash drive when plugged in.While you asked I might as well add: if anyone else is wondering about OLDER software,I have used it on an older computer running Win XP that doesn't support the camera's share software and used the camera with the USB cord as a flash drive no problem.The only *issue* I had is the camera has to be turned on, (on my computer at least) it will it shut off and disconnect if it sits idle too long. Not a big deal, but just figured I would tell you.. if you connected it, then went to go do something and come back and your directory is gone.. just turn the camera back on. :) As Kevin said it will connect like a flash drive when plugged in.While you asked I might as well add: if anyone else is wondering about OLDER software,I have used it on an older computer running Win XP that doesn't support the camera's share software and used the camera with the USB cord as a flash drive no problem.The only *issue* I had is the camera has to be turned on, (on my computer at least) it will it shut off and disconnect if it sits idle too long.

When you plug the usb cable from camera to USB. There is a button that you press on the camera (top left button...sorry forgot the name). It's the button when you open the screen, buttons are on the body of the camera. then on the display it will give you the option to select where you want to view/edit files. select which memory (memory card a, b or internal). I usually select all by touching that option on the touch screen. Then your computer will read it as a memory card/thumb drive/external drive. You can now save onto you pc.

I used an SD card plugged into my computer and downloaded pictures to that and then just slide the sd card into the frame in the appropriate slot. It also has a slot for a thumb drive but the frame itself has very little internal memory so you need an external source.

Yes - the drive connects to the computer with a usb cord. The computer just senses it as a usb device. It's basically the same as plugging a memory flash drive into a usb port on the computer.
