my computer.
•
This can happen due to a bad quality microSD card or a corrupted card
format. Please format or replace the microSD card.

The video files may not be compatible with your computer if suitable
playback software is not installed.
The camera beeps and
indicates it was a failed card.
In general, the memory card lifespan for the camera is about six months and
may be subject to data corruption or loss due to static electricity and/or external
voltage. For this reason, we highly recommend user to copy and save important
data to external media (HDD, USB drive, etc.). It is strongly recommended to
format the memory cards to minimize memory card error.
Unresolved Issues
If the above problem persists, reset the camera to the default settings and try
again. Otherwise, call your local support center.
