Troubleshooting Audio-Video Connections
Why can't I use the DV recorder?
You may not be able to use the DV recorder and the message,
DV equipment seems to be disconnected or turned off
may
appear for the following reasons:
The DV recorder was not connected properly. See
Connecting an i.LINK digital video recorder
for more information.
The i.LINK cable connectors are not plugged securely into the ports on the computer and the camera. Unplug the
connectors, and plug them in again.
Why won't my speakers work?
Make sure the speakers are properly connected and the volume is turned up loud enough to hear sound.
Your speakers may not be designed for computer use.
If the speakers have a mute button, set the button to off.
If you are using battery power, make sure the battery(s) is inserted properly and is charged.
If you have connected an audio cable to the Headphone jack, disconnect the cable and use the speaker cable that
was supplied with the speakers.
Use the Application Recovery CD(s) to reinstall the drivers. See
Using the Application Recovery CD(s)
for more
information.
Why can't I hear sound from my speakers?
If you are using battery power, make sure the battery is properly inserted and is charged.

Your speakers may be set to mute, the volume setting may be too low, or the audio option may be disabled. See

for more information.
