Atrix: Video to computer

K so I took a few videos using 720p (donno if that matters) and i want to put them on my computer so i can view or post them somewhere. The phone records .3gp format. (Also donno if that matters) But I plug it into my computer to transfer them to computer and cant. Says cannot read source file or disk. I did record these to a SD card.. does that matter? I know im pry gonna have to convert the format to something else like AVI or MP4. I wanna post a video on facebook is what im trying to do.. but having trouble.

EDIT: Tried coping to phone didnt work also. I have no way to get a video off my phone. ATT wont let me send anything over 600k. What do i do?
 
There are many ways to get the files from a phone out.
The USB method - you should pull the notification bar down on the phone and select Disk Mode. This will mount the SD card to PC as a separate drive and allow you to copy any photos/videos you made on it to PC using File Explorer. If you don't see the SD card as a separate drive, try another USB port.

Thank you... that worked perfect. Im only 4 months old to these smartphones. God I love em.. But still learning. Now if they can just record to a decent format rather than 3gp
