Can't download movies from my Panasonic NV-GS250 to my iMac?

Hi,
I have an oldish video camera and I don't seem to be able to download the movies from it.
I have purchased a DV (Firewire) cable and have connected it but the iMac doesn't seem to recognise the camera. I can't see it as an option in iMovie.
Any assistance would be great - thanks fro your time.

Have you got the camera in Tape Playback mode? Can't speak for the Panasonic, but my old Sony MiniDV Camcorder wouldn't get picked up in iMovie until I changed the camera mode. Try playing a tape with it all plugged in as well. Maybe the video signal coming down the DV cable will kick it into life.

    Apple doesn't own the copyrights to any of the entertainment content they sell. They are just the retailer. If the copyright owner decides they no longer what their product available on the iTunes Store then it will no longer be available. There's not a lot Apple can do about that. What it also says, at the bottom of the page in the fine print is:
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store... So backup your purchases. I backup all my purchases to local storage and do not depend on a third party to keep my data safe. It is your responsiblity.

    how can i download movies from my portable hard disk or usb to my Ipad2 ?

    Import them into iTunes, then sync to your iPad. Movies may need to be converted to an iTunes compatible format. There are any number of utilities for that such as HandBrake 0.9.5.
    Please get the iPad iOS 4 user guide.

  • HT4095 Can I download movies from iTunes to my iPad and watch them on line as well in case I don't have my iPad with me.

    I have a 16gig iPad mini with latest iOS software.
    Please can anyone advise on the following.
    If I buy a movie on iTunes, can I download it onto my iPad and keep it there?
    If I then delete it, can I download it again free?
    If I do not have my iPad with me, can I watch it online through iTunes?

    The film will need to be downloaded in order to watch it, you can't stream it from the store. Whether you can re-download a film will depend upon what country that you are in and whether it remains in the store (studios occasionally remove them). You are better off keeping your own backup copy of all of your downloads rather that relying on being able to re-download from the store in the future (you can copy purchases from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases)
    What can be re-downloaded where : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085
    You can also get wifi-enabled drives which allow you to stream your content to your iPad, so not everything needs to be stored on it e.g. GoFlex Satellite (there are other makes as well).

  • How can i download movies from a website that use the windows media extention it specifically sends the media through the windows media extension

    '''there is a website i visit frequently and i have tried all the downloader extensions how do i download the movie from the sight if it uses windows media extension'''

    Thanks for the excellent advice, all! I started with BitPim, and have hit a bit of a deadend with the application not being able to detect the phone - I can manually set the port location to the phone (and it shows up as an LG device), but then get a "false" and no connection. So I suspect that's something on the phone end blocking access from a computer via USB... I'll dig around on that a bit.
    Thanks, also, for the suggestion to buy a BlueTooth adapter - that's my next step in this... although after reading the link/review about Verizon's attitude toward open file transfer, I may be severing my ties with them. I've been happy with the phone service, but this is really annoying.
    This is what happens when you assume that Mac people exist in the rest of the corporate sphere..! To think that I would assume that a phone/camera with a USB cable would actually be capable of connecting to a computer and transferring files!
    Thanks, again!

  • Now i can't download MOVIES from camera

    i set aperture to open automatically when i connect my camera, but now my camera doesn't show up in my computer. i want to download movies and some pics that way, but mainly i want to DL pics in apperture.
    how do i get the camera to show up in my computer after it opens with apperture?
    thanks

    You can use iPhoto to download all your files from you camera into the iPhoto Library. iPhoto can handle both the images and video from your camera. Then you can set up Aperture to share import images from iPhoto leaving them in the iPhoto Library.

  • Can't download movies from the cloud

    I have an iMac which is an authorized computer on my itunes, everytime I try to play something from the cloud a little grey cloud with horizontal lines moving through its shows up an nothing happens.  Please advise

    According to the trms of the iTunes and app stores - all sales are final. but that doe not mean that you can't try anyway. People ask for refunds all the time. Use the Express Lane email to contact iTunes.

    You can still download the other movies in iTunes on your computer. Launch iTunes and go to Store>Check for Available Downloads. You can download them in iTunes and then sync them to the iPad later. When you are done watching the first movie, you can transfer it into iTunes on your computer, delete it from the iPad and you will have the room for another movie on the device. To transfer the movie when you are done with it, you can use the transfer purchases feature.
    Transfer purchases.

    If the photos that you lost were photos that you took with the iPad, they should be in your iPad backup - if you sync with iTunes or if you backup with iCloud.

  • Can't download movies from icloud

    Hi there.  I'm having a real problem with iCloud.  I can't download to iTunes the movies I've purchased in iCloud (Apple TV, other Computers with my Account, etc.) 
    I'm not sure if I'm just not doing it right or if there's somethign wrong, but when I go to the movie, and click the little cloud to try to download, nothing happens: I can see it in my Library (with the little cloud icon), but I can't play it, I can't download it, I can't do anything! 
    SO frustrating.  Please help.  THanks.
    Colin.

    Some simple things to take try:
    1. Sign out and sign back into your Apple ID on iTunes: Menu Bar > Store > Sign Out (wait for iTunes to Delete Genius Results if any exist); then, Menu Bar > Store > Sign In > Enter credentials (use your Apple ID used to make those purchases)
    2. (Re)Authorize / Deauthorize-Authorize the computer to download and play past purchases
         a. Windows Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12511
         b. Mac Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12303
    3. Instead of clicking on the past purchased item's "Cloud" button in your library try an alternate download area within the iTunes Store: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12491
    4. If you wish to have the purchases on your device in the end... a work around, download direct on your device:
         a. Open iTunes App > (iPad) Tap "Purchased on the bottom bar or (iPhone/iPod Touch) Tap "More" then tap "Purchased" > Select your category of media (Music/Movies/TV Shows) > Browse to the purchase alphabetically > Tap the "Cloud" button and wait for download to finish > Progress can be seen by tapping "Downloads" button on bottom bar of iTunes App (any device).

  • TS1398 Can't download movie from Itunes to Ipad.

    I have a new IPad and am trying to download my first movie from Itunes.  It takes all my account info and then won't download.  I thibnk my wifi connection is OK--I get mail and have downloaded a few games.

    Where are you physically located?  Although I haven't heard of specific instances, if you read the store terms of use they do reserve the right to use technologies to monitor your physical presence in the store's country when making purchases.  Even if you have a functioning US account, you are also supposed to be actually in the USA when doing the downloads.

  • Can I download  apps from both my apple IDs onto my iMac

    I have two apple IDs and iCloud accounts.
    I was wondering how I can download apps, photos and music all onto my new iMac.
    Thanks

    You say you've downloaded some apps on your phone from Ovi Store. Right? Don't they appear on your "Apps" folder?

  • I can't download movies from iTunes on my iPad!!!!

    I go to films in iTunes and click on buy and nothing happens, when I re click on the buy button it tells me that I have already purchased the film but it has not downloaded and to manage it in the downloads file but there is nothing there. Please can someone help.

    I have only downloaded one feature length film on my iPad and I did it at home using my home WiFi network. It went flawlessly and took about 90 minutes to download a 1.64 GB movie.
    Maybe it was an authorization issue with your iPad. iTunes can get hinky about that kind of thing - especially with app downloads. Maybe connecting the iPad to your computer reset your iTunes authorization and let the movie start downloading again. I know that sounds bizarre but it can occur with third party apps that will not open. One of the common fixes is to download another app in order to reset your iTunes account authorization.
    You should be able to see the download progress bar as the movie is downloading. My response was worded the way that it was because I didn't know if you started the download and left the iPad sitting somewhere for a few hours and when you came back - all you saw was the terms and downloads screen.

  • How can i download movies from my laptop to my desktop computer

    I have movies on my itunes on both my laptop and desktop computer and both are under my itunes account but how can i share the movies between the two? i haven't been able to figure it out and whenever i check for "available downloads" it says all downloads have been downloaded for this account, so if anyone can't help that'd be great

    Or just connect the laptop and mac with a 'Ethernet LAN cable', that's the quickest way to transfer lots of data.

  • Can't download movie from iTunes Store!! Help!

    I wanna buy a movie in iTunes Store. But when i clicked it, it said "must connect to Wi-Fi or have to download it on your computer" But the Wi-Fi connect is excellent.  I shut the iTunes and reopen it, still doesn't work.  Why? Need help!!!

    This issue has been popping up with a lot of people for the last hour, I think the store must be down because it is not just you, I have not yet heard a response from Apple although I submitted the issue to support recently
