1 Touch this option if you want to physically erase all the data rather than just clear the file allocation table of the memory.

2If you selected the [Complete Initialization] option, you can touch [Cancel] to cancel the initialization while it is in progress. All recordings will be erased and the memory can be used without any problem.

IMPORTANT

Initializing the memory will permanently erase all recordings. Lost origi-

nal recordings cannot be recovered. Make sure you save important recordings in advance using an external device (A143).

Initializing a memory card will permanently erase any music files and images you may have transferred to the card. (-/,The music files and image mix frames that come pre-installed in the built-in mem- ory will be restored after it is initialized.) To transfer music files from the supplied VIXIA CD-ROM to the memory card:

-Windows users: Use the supplied PIXELA's software. For details, refer to the Software Guide (PDF file) of the supplied PIXELA’s software.

-Mac OS users: Use Finder to transfer music files from the [MUSIC]

folder on the supplied VIXIA CD-ROM to the memory card. Refer to About the music files (A239) for the folder structure of the memory card.

At the time of purchase, Eye-Fi cards contain the necessary network configuration software. Be sure to install the software and complete the required configuration setup before you initialize the Eye-Fi card prior to using it with this camcorder.
