To Remove a Memory Stick Media
Make sure the access light is off. Push the media in toward the computer. When
the media ejects, pull it out. When removing the
Memory Stick
media, be
careful as it may eject completely from the slot.
Notes on using Memory Stick media:
❑
When the media's erasure prevention switch is set to LOCK, data cannot be
recorded or erased.
❑
Before using
Memory Stick
media, you should back up important data.
❑
Wait a minimum of 10 seconds after the media finishes reading or writing
data before removing it. If the media is removed prematurely, a blue screen
with an error message appears, prompting you to continue or exit. Re-insert
the media into the slot and press Enter to continue. This allows the media to
finish reading or writing data.

You can enjoy video clips that you have recorded with

-
compatible video camera recorders.

The media slot can accommodate one media at a time.
