Why can't I copy scenes from my Panasonic HDC-SD100 Camcorder by connecting to other equipment with the USB cable?

What to do if my Panasonic HDC-SD100 does not stay on long enough?
If your Panasonic Camcorder does not stay on long enough, it might be because the power is automatically turned off to conserve battery life if the unit is not used for approximately 5 minutes. To resume recording, simply turn the power back on.
Why does my Panasonic Camcorder battery run down so quickly?
A Panasonic Camcorder battery can run down quickly due to a couple of reasons. The ambient temperature affects battery performance; in cold places, the battery usage time becomes shorter. Also, batteries have a limited lifespan. If the operating time is still too short even after fully charging the battery, it may be worn out and need replacement.
What to do if my Panasonic HDC-SD100 Camcorder recording does not start?
If recording does not start on your Panasonic Camcorder, even with power and a correctly inserted SD card, check if the SD card’s write protect switch is set to LOCK. If so, unlock it. Also, ensure there is available memory on the SD card; delete unnecessary scenes or use a new SD card if needed. Finally, make sure the SD card cover is closed.
What to do if Panasonic Camcorder images cannot be seen on TV?
If you cannot see images on your TV when your Panasonic Camcorder is connected, consult your TV's operating instructions to select the correct input channel.

Why do white spots appear on my Panasonic HDC-SD100 Camcorder pictures?

What does “ERROR OCCURRED. PLEASE TURN UNIT OFF, THEN TURN ON AGAIN.” mean on my Panasonic HDC-SD100 Camcorder?
