Camera connect, can't import video from canon video camera

Having got over the disappointment of not being able to use a 3G data plan abroad for the iPad I comforted myself with the thought that I could enjoy watching movies taken on holiday on my brand new canon legria fs307 camcorder which I bought new along with the apple camera connect kit at the airport from Dixons.
It imports the stills fine by both card and USB but does nothing and does not recognise any of the video!
In fact connect it by USB it tells me the card may be damaged! Which it obviously isn't because it imports the stills.
Any ideas?

Does the MBP see the camera at all?

  • Can't import AVCHD from Canon F10 into FinalCutPro 6.0.4 via USB

    Can't import AVCHD from Canon F10 into FinalCutPro 6.0.4 via USB. When opening Log&Transfer in FCP, no files show up (the Log&Transfer window do not seem to recognize the files on the camera). The camera shows up in Finder, though. - Do I need a driver?

    sorry, of course USB is available for L&T, I use it every Friday so I should know better, I got two replies mixed up completly so thanks for correcting my mistake.
    what I meant to suggest was if the camera does not show in finder or in L&T check the camea menu setting is set to connect to the hard drive and not from the camera or memory card.

  • Can't import photos from Canon 7D after updating to Mavericks

    I can no longer import photos or MOV's shot on my Canon 7D to iPhoto OR open them in Preview or Finder after upgrading to Mavericks. Can still import from my iPhone, and the same card and camera still work great on my iMac that I have yet to upgrade to Mavericks.
    Ideas? Anyone else having this issue?

    I can sudo reboot /shutdown
    I tried several solutions on other threads nothing worked.

  • Can't import photos from a particular camera after upgrades

    Just upgraded to Yosemite 10.10 and iPhoto 9.6 (910.29), both current as of this writing.
    I have a Canon EOS 10D (older DSLR). I find that when I connect the camera and start iPhoto, iPhoto shows that I have the camera connected, but I never see the photos. iPhoto hangs displaying "Loading". The same happens with Image Capture. And, oddly, nothing at all happens when I connect the card from the camera using an external card reader.
    Your help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    What can work is to try the card at a different machine, or even a Windows one. Sometimes that will allow you to get the photos off the card.
    Riskieer: reformat the card and then try recover the shots with MediaRecover or Picture Rescue

  • Import videos from Canon Powershot camera to iMovie

    I recently bought the Canon Powershot D30 underwater camera. I tried to import the video clips to iMovie without success. It can only export to iPhoto and the video clips when dragged to iMovie became still shots. How do I transfer the videos to iMovie for editing? I have a MacBook Pro with iMovie 11

    Not sure of what you mean when you "never find where the video went". Did you use the import function of iMovie or ? If it is from the camera software, I suspect the video went to your Movies folder in your user folder. But...
    Just checked this out and it is simple. I assume your video is on an SD card or something like that. Just download the movie to your desktop from the camera, then open iMovie 09 and go to the import function under the file menu and import the movie from your desktop. As to

  • Can not import photos from Canon camera to iphoto '11

    When connecting my Canon to iphoto '11 I click on the "Import photos" button and get the following message:
    Unreadable files: 113
    The following files could not be imported. The file is an unrecognized format.
    This is the first time this has ever happened to me. I've done nothing different that I'm aware of. They are all jpegs.
    Any ideas?

    I just had the same issue with an S-90 (I also have never had this problem before.) and had to use a card reader (my iMac has one built in) instead of importing through the camera.  The built-in card reader worked with no problem.

  • Can not import clips from Canon HF100 to iMovie '08 & '09 using iMac

    Hi Everyone,
    Have a strange problem.
    I have a Canon HF100 and iMovie '08 (before) & '09 (now) on both our machines
    (MacPro & iMac).
    When importing clips using the "import from Camera" we get an error message on the iMac but works great on the MacPro. Both system are using 10.5 and we tried it with iMovie '08 and '09.
    When importing from other camera (not AVCHD) but AVI or motion JPEG it work ok.
    Any Ideas?
    Could it be the graphic cards?
    BTW: we did a new reinstall on the iMac.
    Thanks for the feedback and support - Mac user discussions are the best !!!
    Jack

    Hello All,
    I have been attacking this problem for a few hours and I have found that if you turn off and or make all network items inactive the camera will immediately be recognized by iMovie.
    Took a long time to figure this out. Not sure why this is happening but it has fixed my problem.
    Before this fix I would intermently get the camera and its memory sticks in the usb slot to recognize in iMovie.
    Now all is well and works every time as long as I turn off or make things inactive
    Hope this works for you!

    What happens when, after you connect your cam, you go to File > Import Media?
    But before that, does your cam require you to export your video files upon USB connection? I have a JVC Everio HD and I have to "Export to Library" from the cam's menu first-thing. This was true even in prior iMovie versions.

  • Can I use the Camera Connection Kit to transfer files from my Mob/PS3/iPod?

    Can I use the Camera Connection Kit to transfer files from my mobile/iPod or Playstation 3 to iPad using a USB cable?
    I have an *iPod nano 16GB 5g* & my mobile is a *Samsung G800* and *Playstation 3 80GB*.
    _Thanks for reading_

    The CCK will find/ask to download (if iPad supported formate )picture and video files if the device is formated in FAT 16 or 32 and the supported files are placed in a "DCIM" folder in the root directory. I have transfered such files from SD card and USB drives. However, not USB drive work. I had an old 2GB (very large) and when i connected it it said it drew too much power.
    I also downloaded pictures and video files from a compact flash card and smart media card via a SanDisk USB card reader.
    AppleIpod60GB wrote:
    No. The CCK is only designed to allow you to import photos from a digital camera via USB or an SD card. You cannot import any data via this kit and no other files will work as it's designed for only the functionality it does. The kit looks for a folder with the label "DSC####### the same structure as most digital cameras, and will only function with JPG files.

  • Import video from canon eos 550d

    What settings should be FCP7 to successfully import .mov from Canon eos 550d?
    I would like video without the noise and recoil.
    Tnx

    550...that's the T2i, right? Downloading the EOS Log and Transfer plugin, and hacking it, is one way:
    http://lfhd.net/2010/04/04/log-and-transfer-for-canon-dslrs/
    Magic Bullet Grinder to convert to ProRes is another:
    http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/products/all/magic-bullet-grinder/
    Or Compressor.
    No matter what, you need to convert the footage to ProRes for editing:
    #51 - Canon 5D MkII / Canon 7D footage into FCP
    Shane's Stock Answer #51 - how do you bring in footage from the Canon 5D and 7D cameras into FCP to edit?
    You need to convert all of the Canon 5D MkII footage from the H.264 format that it records, to ProRes 422 (ProRes HQ is unnecessary...no quality difference) Yes, the file sizes get drastically larger. H.264 is an acquisition and delivery format, not an editing one.
    You can use the Canon EOS Log and Transfer plugin that works with the 1D, 5D and 7D cameras. This plugin is great because it brings in the camera's TIME OF DAY as timecode, instead of starting each clip at 00:00:00:00 like Compressor or other conversion software will do.

  • Can i stream video from an hd camera to an ipad?

    can i stream video from an hd camera to an ipad?

    It would depend on the camera, and the software, there are items like airparrot, drone camera, or video surveilance cameras that have ipad apps for viewing. A great deal more research is in store I'm afraid.
    Google the following for an example
