Can't connect my Panasonic NV-EX3 to new intel imac iMovie

I have an older mini DV camcorder with a i.Link (Sony's version of Firewire). It looks as though this should be fully compatible but I can't connect. It can't find the camera at all. Are there any special settings I should be using on the imac or on iMovie?
Thanks
Matt

I can understand your total frustration. But not all cameras work w/ iMovie6 (even if they once worked in the past). Seems to me that apple focuses on the latest products first (or at least tries to) and when they have time they update compatibility later for older products (depending on popularity /usage of the product). Might be a marketing approach ... I'm not sure. But I know I've run into this situation many times in the past with a small media converter box sony once made (but is no longer manufactured by sony) called a DA1 (analog to FW media converter box) ... The newer version is/was a sony DA2 which had Lanc control as well (also no longer manufactured).
The only thing I can think of that may work is the following work around:
1. Import your footage into iM4 (assuming you have it on your system already).
2. Rename the iMovie 4 folder so it doesn't get updated to the latest version.
3. Now install iM6 separately.
4. Now open the iM4 project from within iM6. The project will get updated automatically. Once you do this you won't be able to go backwards with this project but you will be able to use the magic movie option in iMovie 6....
Hope this answers your question

I can't connect my canon mp160 to my new apple iMac desktop. It just won't print although it comes up as the printer. there is no driver for this from canon who states that I probably don't need a driver for this

I can't connect my canon xp160 to my new IMAC. It does recognize it but won't print. there is no driver for this as per Canon and they state that I may not need one. thanks!1

If you want to print, then you will need a printer driver. There is no printer driver available from Apple for the MP160. And the last driver that Canon released for this model was for OS X 10.7. You may be able to install this 10.7 driver, although it is not digitally signed so Gatekeeper will block the installation. To get past Gatekeeper, you can hold down the Control key and click on the installer. A pop-up menu will appear. Select Open. You will then be given the option to install the old driver.
With the driver installed, add the printer via Printers & Scanners and see if you can print.

Using FCP 7 - Can I connect two more displays to the new 27" iMac and have one as a display monitor?

I use Final Cut Pro 7 right now and am thinking about buying the new 27" iMac with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4GB GDDR5 card. I have a 24" Apple Cinema Display with mini Display port cable. I also have one more Samsung display with DVI & HDMI. Can I connect both monitors to the iMac and be able to use one in FCP as a display monitor?

Hello,
Maybe a device like the Targus USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Dual Video Adapter or StarTech USB 3.0 to HDMI an DVI Dual Monitor External Video Card Adapter would work?

can i connect my dv camera to my new imac via thunderbolt firewire adaptor

If FW is the only connection the camera has then yes Thunderbolt Firewire adapter is correct. It's available from a number of sources including Apples own online store, in the USA the link would be:

How can i connect my Panasonic Viera Link TV with Airport Extreme?

I use the Panasonic adaptor that came with my Blu-ray player. It worked with my Panasonic plasma TV when I used a NetGear router, but I recently changed to an Airport Extreme router and now neither the Blue-ray nor TV will connect. They find my network, but when I enter the password, after waiting a while, I get an error message that the network timed out. My iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Pro and MacAir all connect fine to this router from anywhere in the apartment. I am not using the wrong case when entering the letters of my password. It's exactly the same passsword that I enter on all my devices. Please help me connect the Panasonic TV to the Airport Extreme--I do NOT want to use ethernet. I want to use the wireless connection. Again--it worked fine withe the Netgear router, but does not connect wiht teh Airport Extreme. Thanks!

Checking the specifications of your camera, I see it as a Firewire out .
DV: 4-pin, digital input/output, IEEE 1394 standard (IEEE 1394 is Firewire)
So you should be able to connect it to your Mini via the Firewire 800 port.
You will need a Firewire 400 to Firewire 800 cable because the Firewire on the camera is a 400.
But I couldn't fine any info that confirmed this model is compatible with iMovie if this is what you plan to use for editing.
There is a work around but it is not very easy.
Simplest way to import your videos is still Elgato video capture, but it will not give you the same quality as DV

HT3563 can I connect more than one bluetooth headset to my imac?

Can I connecy more than one bluetooth headset to my imac?

I have a Plantronics 975 earpiece that works very well with my Razr. I
just got a Panasonic KX-TG7873S phone system for my home, it has a
"Link-to-Cell" cellular convergence solution, from what I understand it is
just Bluetooth enabled. I have paired both device with my Razr. In
settings, Bluetooth setting, both device show. But only one device can
connect at a time. If my Plantronics is connected and I choose the
Panasonic device, the Plantronics device disconnects and the Panasonic
device then says it is connected. Both devices work when they
are connected. Is it because they are both "headsets"?
So, to have to remember to connect to one or the other device, depending on
weather I am coming or going is not practical.

Can't connect my 2009 macbook pro to new 2011 LG TV

I just got a new LG LED LCD TV and I'm trying to connect my 2009 macbook pro to it. I bought a Belkin Mini Display Port to HDMI Adapter at the Apple Store. I also bought the Apple HDMI to HDMI 1.8m cable to connect the computer to the TV. I set up the video fine by using System Preferences-Display. Unfortunately, the sound does not work though. I bought a Dynex stereo mini to RCA "Y" cable to connect my computer's head phone jack to the Audio In RGB/DVI port on my TV. The problem is that I can only get sound to work when I set the input on my TV to AV1. I can only get the video to work when I have the input set to HDMI/DVI. I need to be able to get them to work simultaneously. Can anyone offer me some advice?

Unfortunately, you won't find your TV audio in the System Pref > Sound section. Macbook pro's, before 2010, don't have the ability to send and audio signal through the mini display port. They can only send video. Apple added the new hardware for audio in the 2010 models. You have to use a seperate audio cable from your MBP earphone jack and plug it into your TV. This can be a problem sometimes too. Depending on your TV. I ran an HDMI cable to my TV and I plug my MBP earphone jack into my portable Bose player. That works pretty good.
I think you need to go into System Preferences>Sound, and make sure the output is through the Headphone Port.

Software Update can't connect to the internet after a new install of 10.6

I had a clean install of 10.6 and after that the Software Update can't connect to the internet (the status bar hangs at the beginning and finally it prompts me the internet is not connected) while all my other applications can.
Someone help me out?

I am having exactly the same problem as well.. has anybody managed to solve this yet? I have uploaded Snow Leopard - try to connect to Software Update - the menu bar scans a little then stops and then an error saying 'Not connected to the internet'' but the connection is working fine!!
Is this a SL issue? or just an overload with the Software Update programme? I cant do anything - no update for itunes/iphone software, etc.. most annoying.
Look forward to seeing some good news and some answers to this one.
Cheers
Linda
