Thanks, dude, I love when somebody tries to help and goes straight to the point. thanks

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Glad it helped

[@Cameraman00001]

For some reason every time I do this with the rs it keeps not reading the sd card and I keep having to delete my files and it reads it again but everytime I connect the camera it doesn’t detect the sd card

[@elwaxindangui]

Thats exactly what happens to mine, did you find the reason?

[@antoinehanekom4689]

Thanks, you saved me a hrs of time. Disappointing when the official Insta 360 support web pages don't even have this fundamental instructions MORE than 1 year after you posted your video.

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Glad to hear that!

[@danielkipp5104]

Ok i just got the One RS and had the same problem (only I have a windows PC). I fixed it by updating the Firmware to it's newest version. You'll need a micro USB card & a separate card reader. Download the firmware off the website. Drop it into the micro usb card with a card reader device (don't stick it in a folder it should be out in the open on its own). Plug the Micro back into the camera and turn it on. Let it do the update (it'll chime when done) and then try to plug in into your PC again.

[@Lazy_Jay_Racing]

I have recently purchased the One RS 4k camera and I too have a pc with Windows 10. The camera has the most recent firmware and it is not being recognised by the pc drive. Any tips?

[@tornadoyeti]

This didn't work for me, however I did solve my problem after some experimentation: - I was already switching to U-Disk Mode without success. - But I noticed when unplugging the Insta360 ONE R from the Mac I got a disk improperly ejected msg on the Mac. - Using Mac Disk Utility I saw the camera mounted as an External Device but with no Name; and to confirm this was not visible in Finder - microSD card had previously been formatted directly (outside the camera) on a Mac Mini (running 10.15.7) using SD Card Formatter to change the Name to something other than Untitled 1; in my case Insta360 1 - Ran [Disk Utility] First Aid, all ok - Ran [Disk Utility] Erase, changing the default Name from Untitled to Insta360 1 - Bingo! The camera magically appeared in Finder! - Ejected the camera, took some photos, plugged back into the Mac and confirmed files could be copied from the camera to Mac So in a round-about way your video did help me! Thank you :-) [macOS Big Sur 11.3.1, MacBook Pro Retina 13" Late 2013 (with replaced I/O board but that's another story...)

[@banchasu]

Thank you. I had the same problem and followed your instruction with success.

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Well glad it helped in some way, and thanks for sharing your solution as well!

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Awesome!

[@kevinlauzon7665]

[@eugenechiendassistance]

Still doesn't work here I'm done 😭

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Lame!

[@photoman5943]

Yeah, I power it up and I get the language setting, This product should not be this difficult to get connected to a phone.

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Agree!

[@leoduquette]

For me was simpler. Turn Camera On first, then connect cable.

[@RealLifeGadgetReviews]

Nice one!
