I am trying to load my video recording to my PC

you DON'T charge the camcorder with the usb cord,you only move files between cam and computer,you need a power cord that plugs into the wall,see pic, LETO 2A AC Power Charger Adapter USB Cord For Panasonic HC V100 HC V500 HC...
ihave the same camcorder,

there are few options:
1. use the software you got in the CD that came with the camera.
2. connect the camera with a USB to Mini USB cable to the computer and then you can use it as a refular hard disc
3. search google for video editor free software- there are many. Then you can streamline the signal to the computer and capture the video with the recording function.
4. in case you have a DVD recorder (not the one in the computer, the actual device connected to the TV) you can connect the camera to it and record to a writable DVD.

Yes, your camera should have come with a cord. If not, another device, like your cellphone might have the same cord to use. You can also check Radioshack to see what cord they recommend.

Do you have usb cords and usb connection on your camera? If so, you will want to download the latest drivers for camera onto your pc, then after driver file is downloaded, then double-click the file so it install on your pc. Then restart pc, then turn on camera, then finnaly connect the usb cord. Then install and run quicktime player so you can play the videos on your pc.

hello kevin. you will need the usb cord that came with your camera. if you don 't have one take your camera to walmart and get the connection cord. then hook the camera up to the computer and click on my computer where you will find the camera listed. click on that and you can download.

If Your system is OK with all drivers installed, and before the trouble You have recorded to CD any video from Your camera, try to connect the cam with another USB cable. Then try to connect the cam to another usb port, or better to another PC. If the problem persist, the USB of the cam is damaged and must to be repaired in service center. Best regards.

I don't know why they did this, but this camera requires the camera to be plugged into the AC adapter (via battery charger) in order to be able to transfer the data to the computer.

Fit a PCI card and use the DV firewire cable to import video to PC

you have several options.
1. see first what operating system you computer runs.
if it is vista or mac, it will be recognized as unknown device,
look for SSCAM100 or DCIM folder. you will then see the camera files in that folder.

2. you should also download the cd driver, the cd that comes with the camera, to your PC. this will help the connection be proper.

3. if you're using desktop, try to connect the camera at the back of your tower. look for a USB port at the back of the tower and connect USB cord to it.

4. make sure you're using the proper USB cable, the cable that comes with the camera. for your S630, it is USB cable type 2.

5. also, make sure before you connect camera to PC, camera is turned off, when the USB cord is properly connected, that is the time camera should be turned on.

6. when unpluggin the camera to PC, make sure that you are safely removing the device from the PC so you will not have future connection problems.

hope my suggestions work for you.

I have fixed my friends camera for her. This is how to fix it. Make sure the USB is connected to the computer and the camera. Go to MYCOMPUTER. You should see a Removable disk or Removable drive (E). Double click to open and it brings up a folder. DCIM. Click to open. It says IMAGE. Click to open. All your images should be in that file.

let me know if this worked for you or any one else.
