I was wondering if i could use the Apple DVI to Video Adapter to import videos from my camcorder that don't have usb or firewire but have a S-video. to my laptop? and import them to iMovie

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you mean without internet, then yes, providing it isn't a purchased video (The Apple TV may need to verify authorisation). If you mean without a network, then no.

    Apple doesn't offer a MDP to AV or componet connect . Only DVI and VGA. They also don't offer one to HDMI. You have to go aftermarket to get one to HDMI.
    Quite right, but as the OP does not have component or composite connections not important.
    To the OP, this does work, but is not the cheapest, and as it appears that Apple no longer sell an SVideo adaptor cable 3rd party it will have to be.

  • Can I use Final Cut Studio 3 - notably FCP 7 - on the lastest MacBook Pro (non Retina) (Z0MV-27-4GB-512-HRA Apple 15" MacBook Pro/2.7GHz Quadcore Intel Core i7/8 GB) running OS 10.8?

    Can I use Final Cut Studio 3 - notably FCP 7 - on the lastest MacBook Pro (non Retina) (Z0MV-27-4GB-512-HRA Apple 15" MacBook Pro/2.7GHz Quadcore Intel Core i7/8 GB) running OS 10.8?  If not, is there a work-around if I have to revisit work done in FCS 3?

    I have it running on the latest NON-Retina MBP. And a good friend of mine has it running on his Retina model. Works fine.

    What if I have to revisit any one of them?  What if I try FCP X and find I prefer FCS 3?
    If you need to revisit them...that's why you install FCS3.  That's really the only reason I have that on my system, to revisit old projects, and to deal with clients who still use FCP 7.
    You really should look at moving on though...not sticking with FCP7. It's 4 years old...two years since it was EOL.  Adobe Premiere Pro CC is a very good FCP replacement...although I don't like their "rental" method of paying a subscription to use it.  Or you can buy Adobe CS6...but that just lacks enough to make it not quite tempting for me.  Premiere CC is spot on...but **** if I don't hate that subscription model.  But there's also Avid Media Composer.  But that doesn't do a lot of things that I used FCP and Adobe for...

  • Can i use my 21.5" imac as an external monitor for my macbook pro?

    I have a 21.5" iMac (with Intel processor) that I'm trying to use an external monitor for a new Macbook Pro.  Both machines have a thunderbolt input.  I bought a Belkin mini displayport to mini displayport connector, but my macbook is not displaying on the iMac.  I saw videos online showing this done with the 27" iMac, saying you just needed to press Command+F2, but that is not working for me.  I can't seem to find any posts confiming if I can use my 21.5" iMac this way though.

  • Can I use 2011 OS X Install DVD for a 2006 OS X macbook pro with OS X 10.4

    I've got a 2006 Macbook Pro with OS X version 10.4.11 which is exceedingly slow and has parental control software on it that's wreaking havoc (its defunct Kids Gogogo, by the way).  I'm wonder if I can use the install DVD from my new 2011 Macbook Pro to do a fresh install on the old Macbook Pro.
    Thanks!

    No.
    The grey disks are hardware model specific with their own drivers.
    Just buy the $29 10.6.3  Retail Disk from Apple and Software update.
    10.6.8 is the best for that machine due to it's age, don't go with 10.7

  • How can I use a windows netbook as a wireless hard drive for a Macbook Pro?

    I have an old Acer Aspire One netbook sitting around and a 2TB WD hard drive that I use with my Macbook Pro 15" running Mavericks. I was wondering if anyone had an ideas how I could wirelessly access the netbook with the WD external HD attached from the Macbook Pro. Furthermore does anyone have any ideas how I can use the netbook as an airplay client so I can stream my Mac, iPad, or iPhone to my netbook which would be plugged via VGA into a TV?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Download and install the airport utility for windows.. it isn't strictly necessary but the bonjour service makes life easier.
    The request for username and password is correct. Username is whatever you like.. but windows needs it.. so admin.. being the common router one.. password by default is public unless you changed it.
    Now to get the TC to work properly..
    1. The names should be SMB compliant.. by default they are wrong.. use short names, no spaces no special characters.. pure alphanumeric. That is for TC name and wireless names.
    2. Wireless passwords should also be same use WPA2 private.
    3. In the disk sharing page.. manual setup.. put in the windows workgroup name.. ie WORKGROUP.. this helps the discovery process.
    4. In the same area, turn on the guest account to read and write.. not necessary but helps with later versions of windows particularly.
    5. Access the drive by using the direct IP address. ie in Windows Explorer address bar, \\10.0.1.1 (or whatever IP the TC is at).

  • Can I use my old g5 tower as a scratch disk for my Macbook Pro for Photoshop?

    I just made the laptop jump away from towers and am a little shocked by how much difference a smaller scratch disk makes. Can I use my old tower as a scratch disk to help out my new Macbook Pro?
    Any other tweaks I can do to speed up large files in Photoshop? Should I bump up the ram usage by Photoshop above the recommened percentage?

    Hm. It sounds like you know what you are talking about, and apparently I don't. I was just going to plug in a firewire cable to both and hoped that magically scratch disk would appear as an option for my tower.
    Cant I somehow boot the tower as using as a hardrive only? Or applesharing or something else?

  • How can i use apple tv and iTunes movies with component video cables for an older receiver and projector?

    i have an older yamaha receiver and projector both without hdmi inputs but component video instead. I would like to get apple tv and start renting movies through iTunes but apple tv only supports hdmi and ive read that iTunes has codes to prevent the use ot analog cables with movies. Is there a way to adapt hdmi to component video for both apple tv and iTunes easily?

    Yes, HDMI is the only supported method. Also, with converters you will run into issues with HDCP (which will prevent you from streaming DRM content from iTunes etc) as well as resolution.

  • Can you use Apple Maps to make guided tours and video recordings, similar to Google Earth Pro?

    Hi Fellow Apple's
    I am using Google Earth Pro to make tours, I'm using the build in Movie Maker function to export the tours as video clips. Now my question is if there's anyway to do the same in Maps.? Perhaps I'm not the only one looking for a feature like this?
    Cheers,
    Mick

    No.

  • Can I use the new Apple Thunderbolt  to Firewire adapter to download video from a video camera by firewire to my Macbook Air ?

    Can I use the new Apple Thunderbolt  to Firewire adapter to download video from a video camera by firewire to my Macbook Air ?

    Yes, you can use the 85 watt adaptor. You cannot use the new adaptors because your computer is not equipped with the proper MagSafe connector. But you can use the older MBP adaptors as well as a 60 watt replacement adaptor. All can be found at Apple's Online Store.

  • Cinema Display to be used with DVI to ADC Adapter

    Hello everyone,
    I have a 22-inch Apple Cinema Display (clear enclosure) connected to my Mac mini (Mid 2011) through Apple DVI to ADC Adapter.
    So far, this configuration has allowed me to get beautiful OS X desktop displayed on my old Cinema Display, though it wasn't perfect.
    Pressing the display's power button does not turn off the display nor put my Mac to sleep. Instead, holding the button just makes the power LED brighter than usual.
    Two USB ports on the back of the display doesn't seem to work. It does charge my iPod, but any device connected to those ports (including iPod) won't be recognized on my Mac.
    Can anybody see what's going on here and help me troubleshoot the issue?
    Thanks.

    Pressing the display's power button does not turn off the display nor put my Mac to sleep. Instead, holding the button just makes the power LED brighter than usual.
    That's normal with the DVI to ADC adapter.  ADC (Apple Display Connector) has pins for power control but there are no such pins in DVI so the display's power button has no way to control the computer.  I don't know why the power light brightens when pushed, but mine does it too.
    Two USB ports on the back of the display doesn't seem to work. It does charge my iPod, but any device connected to those ports (including iPod) won't be recognized on my Mac.
    Is the adapter's USB cable plugged into the computer?  The displays ports are USB 1.1.  Some devices, such as iPhones, require USB 2.0.
    Failure of the USB circuitry is common with those displays.  My 22" ADC display started having USB problems years ago.  It started with intermittent USB port problems, then it started interfering with computer sleep.  Since I now use the display with a DVI to ADC adapter I don't connect the adapter's USB cable (and don't use the display's USB ports), so don't have any computer sleep problems.

  • Apple DVI to ADC Adapter - DID NOT WORK !!!!

    I have a PowerMac G4 Model M5183 and I wanted to connect it to a 20" Apple Cinema Display that I got.
    Because the display output on the computer is different than the monitor, I bought the Apple DVI to ADC Adapter that everyone talks about on the support pages.
    Problem is, that the start button on the monitor, will not start the computer. And if I start the computer with the ON/OFF button on it, the monitor comes on after a few seconds, the "Apple" appears and the wheel starts spinning....but the monitor goes black after about 25 seconds. I hooked comp. to a Viewsonic via the DVI port and the computer works fine. I hooked the monitor to a G4 with the ADC port and the monitor works fine. AND, I took the first Apple DVI to ADC Adapter back to the store, thinking it was bad...second one didn't change anything.
    HELP!!!!!

    Computer will not start with button on display.
    When you use the power button on the display, the start signal is transmitted via the USB bus to the computer. The DVI interface on the computer does not have the required USB signals to start the computer. If that is a requirement, you need a graphics card with ADC connector, which requires a computer with the 25 Volt power supply.
    ... the monitor goes black after about 25 seconds.
    That is about the time the System uses the stored Display Preference to re-initialize the display. It may mean the stored Display Resolution Preference has the wrong values for this display to sync up. You can start up from another source and attempt to delete the preference file, or start up using another monitor and set the screen resolution to something really simple, like 640 by 480.
    Your Mac cannot query the display about its capabilities, because its usual method, across the built-in USB connection, is not available. So it must use the stored value instead.
