Cannot connect sony z1 camera to FCE?

I have been importing from my Sony Z1 for an age. All of a sudden, my Mac destop will not recognise the camera, neither will my mac book pro for that matter. I have tried all the various cable options without success.

Some possibilities:
The camera menu has been changed to DV?
The downconverter is active from HDV?

Cannot Connect Sony HDR-FX1E

Hi,
I cannot connect my Sony HDR-FX1E to my Mac through firewire to Final Cut Pro 6 or iMovie, it just will not connect, through easy set up or any other way in Final Cut. Are there drivers that I need or is this a Leopard problem?
I've tried fiddling with settings on the camera as well, but I have been using it on my work systems (not leopard) and its been fine.
Any help would be great as i'm desperate to capture some footage that needs editing.
Thanks,
Ryan

resolved this myself by getting a new firewire cable, cheers to me for the advice!

Cannot connect SONY camcorder to MAC

Hi. read some of the discussions re this but need different details. My camcorder is a SONY HDR-HCE. It says in manual that I need to connect using an i.Link cable. Does the iMac have an i.Link cable port? Where is it? When I use my USB it doesn't work on videos and I can't see a firewire port on the camcorder. HELP!!!

Ok, I bought a firewire cable and connected my camcorder. When I open iMovie it says that the camera is connected. I can play the video using the controls on iMovie but it only shows on the camcorder screen, not iMovie screen which remains blank. How do I fix this?

Connecting Sony a300 camera to ipad2?

I'm trying to download raw files from my sony a300 to my ipad 2 but i keep getting this screem pm the ipad.
Could it be something to do with the file structure on my memory card? DCIM>100MSDCF - its standard structure but just putting ideas out there.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to download the images it would be much appreciated
Cheers
Jonny

If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be necessary to use both modes to import all media content.
If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again.

I cannot connect to my camera at all. I have tried turning it off then on and downloading all the camera apps but it still won't work. My iPod doesn't even give me the option to use anywhere.

My iPod doesn't give me any choice to access the camera. I have tried sownloading a camera app and restarting my iPod but when I had the camera app the screen just turned black. Any idea what's going on?

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

Connecting sony dsc p200

I have recently switched from pc to mac but am having trouble connecting sony digital camera to ibook. When connecting via usb, nothing happens. Any clues anyone?

Eddie
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Open Image Capture in your Applications Folder. In the Preferences to theat app (Image Capture Menu -> Preferences) you can elect what you wish to happen when you connect a camera.
However not every camera is supported. A work-around is to use an inexpensive USB card reader. Many people use them routinely as they spare camera batteries and reduce the risk of problems while transferring pics.

I cannot connect a Sony ILCE6000 camera for wireless downloading. Sony feels I need DLNE? They do not know how to make it work. Can anyone help OS10·9·5

I cannot connect a Sony ILCE6000 camera for wireless downloading. Sony feels I need DLNE? They do not know how to make it work. Can anyone help OS10·9·5

I cannot use the software.. so you need to figure out where the problem is..
But let me suggest.. the Mac is not the issue and likely the info from Sony is also up the creek.. they make PC's after all.
It is far more likely the camera is having issues with the wireless network.
Do you know you have a connection to the home network on the camera.. ?? You have an IP address and some internet or local access at least?
How you will discover those things is by fiddling.. but if you can tell me what wireless AP you are using that will help.

I cannot install the component for QuickTime to convert videos done by a Sony video camera. My iMac tells me that software is designed for previous versions of Os x. Any ideas?

I cannot install the QuickTime component for MPEG-2 to read and covert video files created by Sony video cameras. My iMac tells me that the software is designed for previous versions of OS X.
Any ideas?

Ok, so after like 4 days of going through all these different issues, I figured out that several programs weren't downloading, and it was an issue with my wireless connectivity messing up the digital signatures, so if you plug in your comp to the modem and delete your temp files, it should start to work!

Importing a lot of video clips from a Sony camera to FCE; during the Log and Transfer process, is there a way to add multiple clips to the browser instead of one at a time?

Select one and click cmd-A which selects them all.
Then click the import button if it hasn't started already.

Can't connect Sony DVCAM to FCE on MacBook Pro

I've done everything the manual suggests but still I can't see my footage in the FCE window when the deck is playing. Any suggestions?

Hello and welcome to the forum.
You give us so little information that it's hard to guess what the problem might be. In the following, I assume you're shooting standard definition footage on mini-dv tape.
Make sure you have:
Turned on the camera in playback mode and connected via firewire before launching FCE.
Selected the proper Easy Setup for the footage you've shot.
Opened the Capture window.
If the above doesn't help, we'll need more info:
What version of Mac OS?
What version of QuickTime?
What version of FCE?
What's the camera?
In what format are you shooting?
Are there any external drives? How are they connected?
Is anything else connected to your Mac? What and how?

Problem In Camera Of Lenovo K3 Note "cannot connect to camera"

I bought K3 Note a week ago...it showing "cannot connect to camera" error...I also installed latest system update of 17 mb.What should i do?Plz,I need fix of it.

Yes fully agree... Even the FFC( front facing camera) has its problem. The major problem if you may have noticed is that all images captured appear as mirror images i.e. things on your left appear on your right...mole on your right cheek will be on the left.... Very annoying indeed.. Hope they fix this up too...
