Connect the Gear 360 to a computer with a USB cable

Note: The Gear 360 is not compatible with USB Type-C ports on computers. If needed, use an Apple Multiport Adapter with the Gear 360's USB Type-A to Type-C cable when connecting to a Mac. You can only sync with a PC that originally incorporates a USB port Type-A port.

You can connect your Gear 360 to a PC using the USB cable that came with it. The cable will be USB-A to USB-C for the 2017 model and USB-A to micro-USB for the 2016 model. Once you're connected, you can use ActionDirector editing software to edit your content.

Note: Make sure that your Gear 360 is powered on and has a microSD card inserted before you connect it to a PC.

Transferring files from your Gear 360 is just like transferring files from a USB flash drive. And you can even edit the files on the computer - just install Action Director editing software.

If you miss the Autoplay popup when you first plug in the device, simply navigate to File Explorer, and then select your Samsung Gear 360 from the left-side menu.
