Hello,We take the AA batteries out and charge the AA batteries on a battery charger. We charge them separate from the camera.

It takes 2 AA batteries. They go in the slot where the address card goes in the bottom

No i have been having problems with my battery also. In the manual it says that there is a small light that lights up when it is charging..i plugged it in accoarding to what the manual says and the light has never turned on. I charged the camera over night and it will only turn on it it is plugged into the charger....anyone have any advice on this?

Mine is connected to my camera and 12 volt battery and all of the power and ac/dc cables are plugged in but it won't work.

It sounds like the CMOS board is bad. Try a constant power supply and an only power that camera. If the problem goes away then you were under voltage or most likely under current. If problem is still there then a bad CMOS board

For the cable to work properly please make sure that both the USB plug and the plug to the camera are both pushed in all the way and after you hook up the cable don't forget to turn on the camera. Your PC considers the camera very much similar to an external hard drive. The photos are similar to a 'WORD' document. In order to load a word document you need 'word processing' software such a "Microsoft WORD" or "WORD Perfect". To load the photos from your camera to the PC similarly to the word software, you need software that can process photos, such as HP Photo or Corel Photo, OR PhotoShop, etc. OR You can just do a Microsoft Copy into your "Pictures Folder". Hope this helps, Good Luck.

The camera comes with a charger that plugs into the USB port of your computer OR has a plug adaptor with it. It does need a full charge when it arrives (mine had just a tiny amount of charge on it).

I actually misplaced my charger; would I be able to purchase a separate charger specifically for this camera?Please email me at: Oh_its_alexx@yahoo.comThank you!

Also. Make sure you are plugging the mini usb plug into the slot on the bottom of the camera and not the HDMI slot located on the side of the camera.

What exactly is your question? Check your power supply. Make sure you have 12v. If you can confirm that then meter the ends of the longer 20 ft cable to find 12v as well. If confirmed there then may be an issue in the camera

Your camera should have came with a cord that connects to the charger which should be a USB cord. Yes you will need that cord to connect it to your computer.

Mine is doing the same thing. Right out of the box. Not sure if it's the charger, the battery or the charge port. Neither USB nor the main adapter charge it at all.

Try charging the battery with a "battery charger" that usually comes with the camera.

My USB cable also does not plug flush into the camera. A little bit sticks out, but it still charges up just fine.

I agree with JR, check/swap your wiring/power supply. If it still doesn't work send it back. Quality control on this camera is not good, Ordered 2, one was bad right out of the box.

I plug it into my computer. Did you receive a cord with a USB cable? My bet is you did and it doesn't seem to be charging. I thought the same thing at first. My problem was I kept losing the connection and it would shut down. I think that's one of its inherent problems. Hope this helps...

I believe the battery is hard wired into the camera. If you can not get it to charge, its time to replace the camera

I waited and waited tried different outlets never did charge. Sent it back and they sent me another after a month or so. That didn't charge either. Had to buy a generic from Amazon. Finally got to use my camera.
