So I just recieved the Go Pro I purchased and I had a couple questions.

Is the cord for the USB really suppose to be loose? The thing wiggles around and the light won't turn red unless I hold it in a certain position.

Another thing is I have a computer with Win7 and Windows XP and when I plug the go pro in the usb nothing seems to pop up or be found. I really wanna start uploading clips take i've taken but I can't seem to get it start.

Also I have a Mirco SD card but have a SD card adapter thing so it fits in the SD card. I'm not totally sure if thats relevant but it might be.

thanks

mine didnt pop up on my comp either. i dont think its supposed to. to see your footage, put the sd cards in the card reader. basically all you need to know for the camera. i dont understang why your having that issue with the looseness, but mine fit nice and snug and charged fine.

Sounds like you have a faulty GoPro or cable. All I do is plug the cord into my laptop and my GoPro and it connects just fine, regardless of how the cord is attached.

Try a different USB-to-miniUSB cable and see if that fixes anything. If not, you might need a new GoPro. It's also possible your USB port is a bit messed up, but I'm sure you've got ways to figure out whether or not your computer is the culprit.

EDIT: just read your latest post, sounds like you figured out the problem to your woes.

hahah thanks anyway Chip. My friend's did the same thing and I forgot about it. It just seemed like there was something wrong and Nick Levy told me his friend made the same mistake.
