I usually use a USB cord and it worked fine yesterday while I was uploading videos. I need to upload more pictures and videos but when I hook everything up the computer shows no signs of the camera connecting and the camera screen just shows that it’s connecting (the arrows do not go around though) and it gives me a choice of how to connect, which has never happened before. I just usually use the auto connect using USB. I don’t know what’s wrong or what to do!
All this advice is wonderful and I’ve done it all except gone out and gotten a memory card thing, I haven’t tried on my computer with the memory card insert, everything else so far hasn’t worked =(

Go to my computer and see if it displays your USBinside the the computer
if not just keep tRying
Try using a different USB port. It’s also possible that the cord you’re using may not be making the connection. Do you have a memory card reader in your tower? If you don’t then i’d suggest getting an external sony memory stick reader and leave it on your desk. You pop out the card and pop it into the reader. As far as troubleshooting, it’s between the actual USB port and your cord.
Didn’t catch that connecting part but go with what the person below me said. Personal experience takes the win.
It happend to me as well. You have mentioned that it just keep displaying “connecting”. There is some option in that camera screen. Select the mass storage device. Your camera will connect after selecting that option.
