Hello mlt1953,

 

I am more than happy to assist you with transferring videos from your device to a laptop. May I ask what is the make and model of the device that the videos are on? Also, are you transferring the videos to a Windows or OS X laptop. I'm assuming that these are videos that you recorded with the phone, correct? With everything being equal, there are two ways to transfer videos from phone to a laptop.

 

The easiest way is by using a memory card. The video can be transferred to memory card and plug the memory card into the laptop. Although most laptops have memory card ports, you may have to purchase an adaptor if one isn't present. Once the memory card is connected to the PC, the videos can be copied onto the computer's hard drive. 

 

Note: The recommended video file player to play videos from Verizon devices is QuickTime, which can be downloaded from www.apple.com/quicktime.

 

The second method to transfer videos from a phone to a laptop via video message. Simply, send the file to an email address. Once the video has arrived at the email address, the file can be saved to the laptop. Keep in mind that there is a file size threshold for sending videos via MMS as well as with most commonly used email address provider. In either case, let me know how this works out for you! 

 

Thank you...

What about data cable sending it through that way. Is there a reason that wouldn't work I did that with pics I don't remember if I did it with video but it would be the same way. If its on SD on ur phone its a different drive but u can do same thing. U don't have to physically take it out. It's easy create a file on ur desktop then when u pull up the phone as a drive drag and drop into the file on desktop. It seems easy to me.
