Answer» Hi; I'm getting a DIGITAL camera. It has a USB connection. What I need to know is; Is it safe to connect or DISCONNECT the USB cable to/from the computer while the computer is on, or should I shut the computer off before I connect or disconnect it? Also, is it safe to connect/disconnect the camera to/from the USB plug while the computer is on? Thanks for your answers. John B. ginger1...."Is it safe to connect or disconnect the USB cable to/from the computer while the computer is on, or should I shut the computer off " Your USB ports should be HOT swapable ........or in other words ...it's ok to have on when plugging in or out .

YES ....but make sure the camera is POWERED off.
Double CHECK your camera manual just to be sure .
