Handycam® Camcorder - DCR-HC28E Print This Page
How to resolve if the computer does not recognize the USB connection from a Sony camcorder?
Question:
The computer does not recognize the USB connection from a Sony camcorder.
Answer:
Follow the steps below to troubleshoot this issue:
IMPORTANT:
Some computer operating systems may required you to be logged on as an Administrator or with administrator rights.
If the computer you are using is connected to a network, it may be necessary to temporarily disable the network connection or connect the camcorder to another computer that is not on a network.
Ensure the USB cable is connected properly to the camcorder.
Ensure the other end of the USB cable is connected directly to the USB port on the computer.
NOTE: Connection through a USB hub is not supported.
Disconnect any other USB devices (except for the mouse and keyboard) from the computer.
Turn off the camcorder for 30 seconds.
After 30 seconds, turn the camcorder on again.
IMPORTANT:
If you have a camcorder with USB Streaming capability, you may also need to turn on the USB Streaming feature in the camcorder menu. However, not all camcorders with a USB connection support USB Streaming.
After being turned on, some camcorder models require you to select USB CONNECT or COMPUTER on the LCD screen.
If necessary, consult the instruction manual of your camcorder for further information. Manuals are available online, please click here.
If the issue is not resolved, restart the computer.
If the issue is still not resolved after restarting the computer, try connecting the USB cable to another USB port on the computer.
If the issue is still not resolved, try uninstalling and reinstalling the USB driver.
If the issue is still not resolved, it may be necessary to replace the USB cable.
The troubleshooting steps listed above should resolve your issue. If you have completed all of the steps and the issue is not resolved, then it is recommended you try connecting the camcorder to another computer. If the issue does not occur with another computer, then the USB ports on the first computer may not be configured properly or software may be installed that is interfering with the connection. In these situations, you may need to contact your computer manufacturer.

Still no luck with DCR-HC28
I downloaded picture movie browser from the Sony Asia Pacific website but at the end of the download it said Sony Picture Utility cannot be installed so it looks like I'm screwed for now. Been reading researching every blog on the net but it looks like this handycam isn’t compatible with windows xp start up edition but my computer has the actual windows windows xp built into it so why isn’t it recognizing it? May be its a problem with the camera who knows but it looks like I wont be doing any editing anytime soon I hate waiting especially when I am burning with creativity. I'm going to upload ALL of my Cannes Film Festival photos to facebook tonight I feel they've been locked away on zip disk far too long time to share them with the world. Today I road my bike all the way to Long Beach Borders bookstore because they have the best WIFI just irritated by these technical delays in progress.
