    • B
      Barry KnightAug 27, 2025
      If your PC doesn't detect your Panasonic Action Camera when connected via USB, try the following: Ensure the unit is turned on (as the PC only charges it when off). Re-insert the microSD card and reconnect the USB cable. Try a different USB port on your PC. Restart your PC and the camera, then reconnect the USB cable. If using Wi-Fi, disconnect it before connecting the USB cable. If you are using the unit as a card reader, set [Select USB mode] of the “Image App” to [PC]. If you are using the unit as a web camera, set [Select USB mode] of the “Image App” to [Web camera]. Finally, check the operating environment.
