Premiere not recognizing Canon Powershot SD600

I just bought the Master Collection the other day. So I read some tutorials on how to Import film, etc.
Capture doesn't work for me as it says there is no camera plugged in, And when i import movie files it only shows one frame, but it plays the audio.
Do I have to buy a new camera, or is there a way to make my current one work?
By the way, my computer, not premiere, recognizes the camera.

"Ahh so Premiere will only work with Video Camera's."
Well, not 100% correct, though it DOES like DV-AVI Type II video files the best.
The workaround is to do a conversion of your footage, outside of PrPro to DV-AVI Type II. This will introduce one more operation into your workflow, but benefit you. Many of the problems that you are seeing will likely disappear. Now, you will still have to live with the quality from the still camera, as it is likely not to be as good as that from a miniDV video camera.
I tried to find a recent thread that discussed exactly what you are seeing. Unfortunately, I cannot locate it. I do not know if it was in one of the PrPro fora, the PrElements forum, or maybe on another site. If I can locate it, I'll link to it. The aspect that caught my attention was that only the first frame shows in the video - just like you are experiencing.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS there are many good conversion programs and some are freeware. I'd urge you to try some of these - remember you want DV-AVI Type II files, until you get that video camera.
[Edit] Still have not found the article, but here is a link to some data on file Conversion.

MacBook Air not recognizing Canon PowerShot

I just got home from vacation excited to import photos to my MacBook Air (either using Picasa or iPhoto) from my Canon PowerShot SD3500IS.
For the first time, my MacBook doesn't recognize the camera. I tried connecting to my old camera too and nothing. I tried Googling for the issue and nothing made sense.
An help?

Thanks for the suggestion.
Turns out the memory card had too many pictures on it. I cleared some out and everything worked. Sigh.

Canon Powershot SD600 as video source?

Currently considering the purchase of a new digital photocamera, the Canon Powershot SD600. One of the things I hope to use it for, is as a 'webcam' ... my Powerbook doesn't have a built-in iSight and I don't use it often enough to actually buy an iSight for these video chat purposes.
So my question is ...
Can an external camera be used as a 'video source' on my Powerbook ... and can it be used in iChat?

I would guess it depends on how dark the room really is. The SX60 has a very small sensor in it and starts to get noisy if the lighting is too low. That camera does not have a real fast lens and quickly loses light catching ability as you zoom in. Can you add some additional lighting to help your situation? I realize that may not be a possibility. Is there any way you can increase the ISO setting just a bit, or make sure the aperture is as close to f3.4 when shooting? These may not be available in video modes, but if they are, it could help you.
Cameras with larger sensors and brighter lenses will generally do better in lower light situations. If you are doing a lot of shooting in the dark you might need to consider a second camera with these traits.

IPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW Format

Hi,
It seems iPhoto does not support Canon Powershot S45 RAW file format. Can this be added to be supported!?
Does anyone know how to report this to Apple and request this as a feature enhancement?

Or this link: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html

Premiere Pro CS3 not recognizing Canon devices for capture

I have used Premiere elements 2.0, no problem. Now with CS3 in the capture video panel it says "device offline". I can capture using windows movie maker, not sure why not my Canon GL2 or my XL2 for that matter, I've tried them both. I am using windows xp.

First, does XP recognize the camera(s), when attached by IEEE1394 and turned on? If yes, we'll get to that. If no, then you likely have a problem with either your IEEE1394 controller, XP, or with the camera(s). With it plugged in and turned on, go to Control Panel>System>Device Manager and see if it appears there, and if there are error messages.
If your XP does recognize the camera, you might try these little "tricks" gathered by Jim Simon:
1.) Plug in the camera, but do not turn it on. Launch PrPro and choose Capture. Turn on camera.
2.) Plug in the camera, but do not turn it on. Launch PrPro, but do not choose Capture yet. Now, turn on camera and then choose Capture.
3.) Plug in the camera, and turn it on. Launch PrPro and choose Capture.
4.) Any other variations of these that you can think of.
It seems that different cameras behave differently, so you may have to experiment to see if one proceedure works for you.
If none of this works, and XP sees the camera(s) correctly, then I am out of ideas.
Good luck,
Hunt

LR 4.2 not recognizing Canon 5D MK III files

I have LR 4.2 installed. I just tried to import my 5D MK III images for the first time and is gave me a camera not recognized (409) error. From what I can see the 5 MK III was supposed to be supported from 4.1 on. Did the tether fix in 4.2 break the native image support? If not, does anyone have 4.2 installed that does recognize MK III files (within the past week)? I ran the update check and it reported that I had the latest version installed and no updates were available.
Thanks

Lightroom 4.2 should have no problems recognising and importing Canon 5DMk3 files. Actually, I imported around 200 such files late last night. So, there is something else going on with your installation. Have you tried deleting the Lr preference file ? More info where it's located can be found at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/358041?tstart=0

Aperture & Lion not recognizing Canon 1D Mark IV videos

Upgraded the 17" MBP i7 to Lion.
When I import 1D Mark IV photos and videos from a CF card, it takes forever if there are videos on the card. It's fine if there's not. And when the videos come in to Aperture, they're not recognized as video files (even though they're .MOV files). Quicktime Player plays them fine.
Did 10.7 nuke something from Canon that I have to re-install?

The issue seems to be that /Library/Quicktime had a lot of outdated Quicktime stuff. I noticed QT is now mostly in /System/Library/Quicktime, so I deleted everything in /Library/Quicktime and now it seems to work.

MBA 11" not recognizing Canon camera

My Canon S95 camera is recognized normally on my home iMac and iPhoto opens. However, I am now traveling in Europe with my new MacBook Air 11" and find that camera is not recognized and does not appear on USB device list under Sys Profiler. Have tried resetting SMC and NVPR.
No other problems with camera or MBA.

I have no problem with my S95 and 11" MBA. Could the problem be with the camera's memory card (I use sandisk)?

Desperate...Premiere not recognizing any video

Hi everyone! I'm obviously very desperate if I'm posting to a forum for help.
The problem is my clips won't show in the timeline. When I drag and drop the video file, every single thing I've read online states that it should AUTOMATICALLY separate my video into clips for editing, and an audio track. It should read "Video 1", "Video 2," "Audio 1", etc. In the default setting, before a video is added to the timeline, it reads "Narration" and "Soundtrack." But, as I said, when I drag and drop a video it is supposed to automatically change. Even YouTube tutorials have shown this.
Well...mine doesn't.
When I drag and drop a video, not only does it NOT separate the video and audio, but it doesn't even separate it into clips. The words "Narration" and "Soundtrack" remain on the left side, where it's supposed to read "video" and "audio." So it's as if the program is not recognizing my video file.
Fine, so I tried another video file. One of those sample ones that were already on the computer. No dice, it still did the same thing.
So I'm at an impasse. No help sites or anything I've found have addressed the problem of the program just NOT WORKING like it's supposed to! And I know exactly what it's supposed to look like, because it's not that dissimilar from Windows Movie Maker which I have used before.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's not from a camcorder, it's an .avi file directly from my hard drive. Saved on my desktop, no less.
Two things here:
AVI is but a wrapper, and so very much can be inside that wrapper. See this ARTICLE for some background, and also tips on how to peek inside that wrapper.
Second, I would not use the Desktop for your Assets. It is basically a special folder and one with special properties. Often, PrE (and many other programs) will have difficulty accessing the Desktop folder, due to those special properties. Just create a New Folder (or use the My Documents>My Video folder), and Move your AVI file(s) to that. This should be done, with PrE closed. When you Open that Project back up, PrE will ask you, "Where is file _____.avi?" From the Finder, just navigate to that New Folder, or to the My Videos folder, and choose that "missing" file.
This might also be a good point to talk a bit about what a Project file (PREL file) really is. This ARTICLE will give you some background. It will also explain why PrE asked "Where is file ____.avi?" once you Moved it.
Good luck, and for a very good starter set of articles, I strongly recommend Steve Grisetti's Basic Training Series at Muvipix. To go beyond those articles, he has some great books on PrE, also at Muvipix.
Good luck,
Hunt

Aperture not recognizing Canon G-10 RAW Files?

All of a sudden Aperture is not recognizing my G-10 RAW files. It did yesterday, but not today. I just downloaded the new aperture update thinking that might change things, but no go. Just says "unsupported file format"
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Shane

What is your import workflow? Are you (appropriately) uploading images first to the hard drive before importing into Aperture? Was the card (appropriately) reformatted in-camera before shooting the new batch of pix?
Direct camera-to-Aperture or card-to-Aperture workflows can be problematic, as can using the computer for erasing card images or reformatting cards.

CS6/ACR 7.x not recognizing Canon 5d Mark 3 files previously edited in same version. Help?

Why are my previously edited canon 5d mark 3 raw xmp files no longer recognized and all sliders set to zero? I can see the xmp files associated with the raw file in their folder. The files were originally edited in CS6/ACR 7.x -in July 2012 - and recently re-opened in the same CS6/ACR 7.x.
The canon 5d mark 2 files from the same time/event are showing up fine. I have updated everything, but both before and after the update, same issue with the Mark 3 files.
On a side note:
We have found that opening mark 2 files (that were originally edited in CS4 / ACR 5.7) in CS 6 / ACR 7.x and making any changes such as color coding causes all previous xmp information being zero'd out in the mark 2 xmp file. Not sure if this is a symptom of the same problem? Except the difference here is the Mark 3 files have never been touched outside of version CS6/ACR7.x - however the folder which holds both mark 2 & mark 3 files from the same event has been opened in the CS4 / ACR 5.7 window but without touching the files. By opening the folder in CS4 I can see that the Mark 3 files aren't reading and then know this event was originally edited in CS6/ACR 7.x
Specifics:
PS CS6 13.0.4 x64
Mac OSX 10.6.8
Canon 5d Mark 3 Raw files
This is the first time in these circumsances that this issue has presented itself.
Any insight would be much appreciated
Thank you!

First check to make sure your view mode in ACR is set to Image Settings, not Camera Raw Defaults. This is accessible as the top item or three in the menu that comes up when you click the little threelines-arrow icon at the right of the tabs title bar, for example to the right of the word Basic.
Otherwise, did you switch your Camera Raw settings location to be the central database instead of XMP files and/or are you on a different computer that might have a different metadata storage location?
Open up one of the XMP files in a text editor, perhaps one that hasn’t had a picture opened for it, recently, yet, and see if you see any non-zero settings. Also take note of the last file creation time. This will help determine if the XMP files, themselves, have been written with ACR defaults or if they are just being ignored.
Also, check the date and timestamps of a CR2 and XMP file that hasn’t been opened, recently, and see if the XMP date/time is before the CR2 date/time. There has been a bug, not sure in LR or PS, where if the XMP file date is BEFORE the raw-file date, then the XMP is ignored so maybe that could be happening. If it is a LR bug, then have the files been edited in LR, which might have ignored the XMP files and the rewritten things with the LR default settings?
If no explanation can be found on your side, can you zip up a raw and its corresponding XMP, preferably one that’s not been looked at, recently, then put them online somewhere like http://www.dropbox.com/ and reply with the public download link, so others can take a look?
What version of Camera Raw are you using? ACXR 7.4 just came out this week.

Lightroom 5 not recognizing canon or sony raw.

I recently upgraded to Lightroom 5. Suddenly it will not recognize raw files from either my Canon 7D, or my Sony Nex-7.
Both of these are supported in LR4, and LR4 is still recognizing them.
Any suggestions? I've already checked, there are no further updates available.

Do you mean that Lr 5 won't import new raw files for these camera models?
Or, that it won't read existing raw files for these camera models that are in your catalog already?

IMovie 08 not recognizing Canon Vixia HF100

I have had my canon Vixia hf100 for over a year and purchased iLife 08 (with iMovie 08) last year and had no problems with uploading my videos at first.
However, I am no longer able transfer my videos from my camcorder into imovie 08. It will not recognize the camera, and any time I try to do a manual transfer of the files, it tells me they are not movie files. Why would imovie STOP recognizing my camera that it used to recognize? I'm wondering if something changed with one of my software updates that changed imovie and somehow made it incompatible. I would rather not purchase imovie 09. Any insight would be appreciated.

Sorry I didnt mean to offend with simplicity, but unless you do the right (silly as it may seem) sequence it doesn't recognize the Canon! One thing done out of order and you must start over again! I did leave one step out, sorry! When the camera is turned on, you will get a camera screen to select the "play mode". Use the joystick on LCD display panel to select PC mode and depress select button.
iMovie '08 then detects and lets you download all clips from the camera.
Tip: You must use the Movie folder in your user "parental guidance" ok'd user area. No other folder works!
And I do have all apple software updates on that computer. If this still doesn't solve your problem, I purchased Leopard by DVD from Apple and upgraded Tiger. However my new Leopard native computer did not have iMovie '08, still don't know why! So my success has been on the computer using the Leopard DVD upgrade! Perhaps the system upgrade and the native Leopard misses the boat, which would cause your continued problem.
Sincerely trying to help!
