Retrieving or transferring cell phone videos from your phone to your computer requires connecting your cell phone or cell phone's storage device to your computer, via USB cable or SD card adapter. Transferring to and from cell phone to computer follows the same process--the only difference being where you are transferring your videos to. Allow several minutes for large videos to transfer.
