Hello @louieb47. Do you have Quik for desktop installed on your computer? If you have, simply connect the camera to the computer and the Quik for desktop app will recognize the camera and allow you to import the footage. The USB indicator that is seen on the camera screen is normal. 

If connecting the camera directly to the computer still does not work, try inserting the SD card to the computer using an SD card adapter. You should be able to access and view your GoPro footage this way.
