1.8Ghz G5 (late 2004) can not recognise my sony digital camera

My PowerMac G5(Mac OS X 10.3.9) can not recognise sony digital camera,but my friend have same model G5 with no problem,what shell I do?

Did you use the very same camera on either Mac or just the same model? When my Mac (also G5 1.8 Dual, though the earlier spring model) had problems recognizing my Sony, it was a question of setting the USB mode on the camera: E.G. my camera allow to set its USB mode to either Normal or PTP, the PTP setting caused problems at times, though its too long to tell, of which nature they were. May be woth a try

Macbook pro(2008 later) can not recognise external monitor(NEC UXI2090) with mini-DP to DVI adapter with 9600GT

I bought mini-DP to DVI frome Apple several monthes ago and it worked well in that time until yesterday the external monitor show me no signal sign. Other PCs were connected with the same cable and monitor and they are fine. I am wondering there is something wrong in the adaptor or macbook pro. Furthermore I found the external monitor can display nornally when I switched to 9400 graphic card and used mini-DP to VGA adapter. If I switch to 9600GT no signal again. If I switch 9400 using mini-DVI, it is shown on the external screening: Out of range... In a word, In the mode of 9600GT, mac can not recognise external monitor(I can not detect it in the systerm preference even I press detect display buttun) and 9400 works in VGA mode. However when I connect adapter to mac, the screen showed blue flash.
I reseted SMC, no use; I created a new account or enter mac to safe mode, no use; so far I did not reseted PRAM beacuse of something wrong of my system. I am downlaoding Mountain Lion OS and will install it. Then I will reset PRAM and try again.
I do not know whether I shoud change the adapter or the single-link DVI cable to dual-link. Someone said it is useful in their condition. I tried some methods from BBS, such as connected when devices were off and then open, and so on. I failed.
Any suggestion for this problem?
Addition: OS: 10.7.4(Lion)

I turns out that the logic board of my MacBook Pro was faulty (despite being brand new).
I took it to the Apple Store, presented the problem, and one of the Tech's came to the same conclusion that I had -- hardware failure. Phone support was no help in the matter (and even told me that what I was trying to do wasn't a supported option, which is rediculous). However, the Genius Bar did take care of the problem, and my MacBook Pro was back to me with a replaced logic board within a few days.
Hope that htis helps.

It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things. By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files. I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule. The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac. That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.

I have an iMac and also a MacBook. All of a sudden my iMac does not recognise my Canon 500D camera even though I have downloaded 1000s of photographs from it via the USB port. The MacBook recognises the camera immediately. Can anyone help?

Thank you for your reply. I know I can use a card reader however I don't see why I should when importing directly from my camera has worked reliably for years. The process I use is simply connecting the digital output from my camera to the USB port on the iMac, which has previously automatically opened iPhoto ready for the import. Now all of a sudden my iMac does not recognise the camera. However if I connect in the same way to my MacBook then iPhoto opens automatically on the MacBook, recognises the camera and is ready for importing. So whilst I know I can use a reader, or my MacBook I want to use my iMac in the same way that I have for years. I can only assume that the settings on the iMac may have changed, but I cannot verify this.

Although the Snow Leopard updated to 10.9.2 Maverisck, so I then installed FCPX 10.1 I can not pour 4k video on your computer because it can not see the Sony FDR Ax100e. Thing left for me to do?

Sony has put in a position that the camera was connected with their software called PlayMemories Home . This then allows you to import movies and photos on the computer and then use them in different ways. However, when the camera is connected to the mac and I said Mass Storage USB Connected , then you execute this program I told you about two seconds later , however returns an error message that is: Connect the device to your computer or multimedia support . I do not understand .

IChat Does not recognise my Sony handycam. help

iChat does not recognise my Sony Handycam and says no Camera is attached. However if I have imovies open my camera works and iChat says Camera is in use. What do i need to do to get the video working on iChat.
Can anybody help me.
Thanks.
Julian.

Hi jhodge,
Welcome to the Apple Discussion Pages.
Is it in this list http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/camcorders.html ?
iChat requires a DV input where as iMovie can see almost anything from TV signals, mpegs to DV.
Does the camera output in DV (even if it is Firewire) ?
Can it be changed on the camera if not ?
This Utility has helped with some DV cams that put out mpegs and others that are USB

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank. Be patient, the device will power ON again in the normal way. It is app and data safe!]

The iPod touch has a very rudimentary camera. It has only a 0.6 MP resolution, no optical zoom, no flash, etc. There is no app that can improve this as it is limited by the hardware. So it is not a replacement for a digital camera (nor even for an iPhone whose camera has a 5.0 MP resolution.

Can you take photos on digital camera and see them appear on the ipad using the camera connector

Can you take photos on digital camera and see them appear on the ipad - i have a canon 400d and the new ipad.......

The camera connection kit accepts only SD camera memory cards.
Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Qosmio G10-133 & Vista can not recognise my memory stick

Hi,
I have installed VISTA on this laptop, and I have had a few problems as you can imagine!!!!
I can not get it to recognise my memory stick. I can't find any drivers and Windows can not solve the problem.
Anybody got any clues?
I am also having a problem if I power off the laptop. The only way I can get the power on button to work is to remove the mains cable and the battery and then I can power on the laptop. If I don't remove the power cable and the battery, I get a green light on the power button, or no light at all, and pressing it seems to do nothing. I also get a flashing orange light on the mains power light at the front of the laptop. I assume it is something to do with the computer thinking it has hibernated or something?

What to say buddy.
The Vista is not supported on the Qosmio G10 series officially and therefore the Vista drivers dont exists for this series.
Fact is that you need an card reader driver to use the memory sticks. But as I said above such drivers are not released and dont exists.
What you can do is to check the drivers for G30 but Im very skeptical that this will work on G10.
Bye

Device Manager Can not recognise the Camera

From the first day I installed my iPhone the camera would not connect to my PC. In the device manager my camera comes up in Imaging devices as "iPhone" with an ! inside a yellow circle (Not Triangle)I have deleted the driver and reinstalled it several times, and it is as if it can not find the driver or it does not exist. I also deleted the USB "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" and reinstalled it and rebooted several times. In the device manager I believe the device should come up under Imaging devices as "Apple iPhone" instead of just "iPhone".
iTunes syncs fine and I can even send photos to the iPhone to the photos app as an album, but I can not get the iPhone photos off the phone except via email
Does anybody know the solution to this problem?

Oh my gosh! I was having this problem, too! I found the solution, tho. It really worked!
I was having a pretty serious problem that started when I upgraded to iPhone 3.1. While iTunes recognized my iPhone, iPhoto didn't.
And if I opened iPhoto, I couldn't see the camera. Same with Image Capture - it said no device detected. I know there was no problem in 3.0.
Luckily, there are other ways to get the photos off the iPhone, and luckily iTunes recognizes the phone, but that of course is not the point.
Good news is that I believe I found the fix. Click through and I'll see if I can explain it.
For some reason, it has to do with photos saved to the camera roll that were not shot with the iPhone. In other words, photos saved from email or screenshots. I have no idea why that would be, but once I deleted the non-shot photos, iPhoto launched normally and all was right with the world.
The problem is mentioned several times in the Apple support forums and everyone with it is running iPhone 3.1 and Snow Leopard 10.6.1. Restoring the iPhone, rebooting and repairing permissions from the Snow Leopard disc has no effect. The only fix I've found is my weird one.
Anyone else seeing this problem? Anyone find a different fix? Please let me know in the comments or interact with me on Twitter or Facebook.
Thanks and thanks for calling.

Can not recognise portuguese character in weblogic 10

Hello All,
I have Weblogic 10 installed in RedHat Linux and I have deployed a web app in the weblogic server. There are portuguese characters in the web app but we can not see the portuguese characters in the browser. The characters appear as '?'.
Same web app works fine (we can see the portuguese characters) in Tomcat.
I tried adding the param -Dweblogic.webservice.i18n.charset=3Dutf-8 in the startup script but it did not solve the issue.

Can not capture from Sony HDV 1080i (recording in 60i)

Hello
We are trying to capture from the above camera to a Mac Dual G5. We are using FinalCutPro 5.1.2. We are using a FireWire 400 cable to connect to the front of the computer (have also tryed back of Cinema Display). The footage was captured in HDV1080/60i, and we have tried the corresponding formats in Easy Setup (Basic, standard, Apple Intermediate).
The problem: we can control the camera from the Log and Capture windows, but when starting capture, no data is coming in, and the program therefor gives up after a few seconds (displaying a no data error message).
We have tried Batch and Now capture. We can log clips, and get the correct time code, but can not capture those clips due to the no data problem.

This is a good workaround for curing your camera recognition problem with FCP (if that's what it is):
First, check that your Easy Setup / Timeline / Camera or Deck Settings are all exactly the same, then making sure your camera or deck is in VTR mode, try to capture again.
FCP uses a different form of QT than iMovie for capturing, so if the camera works in iMovie (or if it's listed in System Profiler) but not FCP, it obviously means your Mac can see the VTR but FCP can't, so you need to do this QuickTime fix.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
Follow the instructions carefully and you should have things running in no time - it's quite safe but you must Trash the Receipts AND re-install QT from the link provided.
If the Camera / Deck isn't recognised by iMovie or System Profiler, try resetting the Firewire Bus . . . Turn off the Mac and disconnect the power and all Firewire cables. Leave it for 30 mins then connect back up.
Still not working? Try a different Firewire cable.
Failing all this, try resetting the PMU (Power Management Unit). The method varies from machine to machine, so visit the Apple site and search for it in support.
Don't use iMovie for capturing - it doesn't give you a timecode and that's very important.
Let us know how you get on!
