Cannot get my G5 to Recognise Sony DCR-TRV16E

I am a brand new Mac user and this is just one of my new obstacles - I have the above Digital camcorder and when I go into Imovie it will not recognise the camera - i have checked the apple site and the camera is not listed - is there a way around this?

You did not mention how you were connecting your camera to the Mac. Your camera came with a USB connector cable, not a Firewire cable. The USB is only good for transferring still digital images, not video. Make sure you are using the Firewire. If you are using the Firewire, there is no reason for the camera not to be recognized unless you have a bad cable or a bad connection.

I cannot get CS6 to recognize my Sony DCR-TRV340 camera for capturing video from that camera. CS6 c

I cannot get CS6 to recognize my Sony DCR-TRV340 camera for capturing video from that camera. The CS6 capture box keeps putting up a message that capture device is off line. The Sony DCR-TRV340 camera is not listed in the CS6 Device Type list in the CS6 DV/HDV device control settings box of Sony cameras. I've downloaded what I think are the correct drivers for the TRV340, and when I plug the camera into the computer, the computer shows it listed in the devices and printers box, but CS6 will not recognize it. Do I need to install these drivers into a specific folder in the CS6 program? If so, where do I find these drivers in the windows 7 professional operating system, and into which CS6 file folder would I copy them to?

Most camera's are not listed in Device controle, set it to Sony and generic. Yours is very old its a Digital 8 camera (I still got a TRV210). Johns second link wont work with your camera.
You do not need to download drivers nor do you need to install anything. Most likely its the Legacy driver.
Read though this document.

General rule is connect camera to pc wait until windows reconigzes the camera.
Fire up Premiere and capture.
Never connect the camera to pc when the camera is on.

Trying Sony DCR-TRV16E as pass-through for VHS to iMovieHD5

Hello,
I've used the Sony DCR-TRV16E as pass-through for VHS to Nero 6 on a PC before without any problems, and Skype on the iBook running OSX 10.4.11 is happy with the camcorder showing the VHS tapes, but iMovie just tells me "Camera No Tape". I've tried to re-insert the FW cable several times and even played a few notes in GarageBand.
Was very happy when I managed to get the format DV-PAL instead of DV-NTSC, but since then I haven't progressed.
The setup is OK for the iBook and Skype, so what is the final magical touch that will enable iMovieHD5 with the iBook in my setup?
Thanks for your help.

Hello Matti,
For the first time in years, I tried to import analog using pass-through in my Panasonic NV-DS 38. iMovie 5 and 6 just says "no tape in camera" (in Swedish) and refuse tom import. iMovie 4 works just fine. The problem is that iMovie 4 runs in Rosetta on an Intel Mac. It seems as BTV/BTV Pro also runs in Rosetta (as the version is created way before any Intel Mac was available).
Do you know if there are any native Intel apps that captures DV?
(By the way, the tape mechanism in the Panasonic is broken, so I can't use the "playback tape" trick, where I suddenly stop the miniDV tape.)

Can you advise me as to how I can get my PC to recognise that I've plugged in my Harrier with the USB cable from the box.It worked a few days ago but now there is no response.Thank youIM

Hi ,
Welcome to the EE Community.
Have you tried using a different USB cable to rule out a fault with that?
Thanks

I cannot get ADE to see my Sony PRS-505 reader.

Have got the latest (Mac) ADE and Reader software (re-installed several times), an Adobe ID, the iMac is authorised, but I cannot get the PRS-505 to appear as a bookshelf in ADE, nor does the eReader show any manifestation of ADE. Have trawled the forums and FAQ's bu to no avail. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
In order to fix this please do following.
Solution 1)
1) Connect your Reader to your computer.
2) Once conncted you will find a new drive created similar to C or D drive under My computer.
3) Open the Readers Drive and you will find one or two folders with name Digital Editions.
4) Delete those folder and plug off and re plug in the Reader.
5) Authorize Reader from the same Adobe ID which you used to Authorize Adobe Digital Editions.
6) Now try to transfer books to your Reader
Solution 2)
1) Click Start>>Run
    Type "regedit" in the box and hit enter.
    Locate the following key HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Adobe>Adept>>Device delete the full folder (Right click on it and click delete).
2) Now Connect your Reader and then open Digital Editions.
3) Now it should recognize your Reader.

Sony BDV-E570 - Cannot get sound from TV to Sony system using Digital Optical Cord

I get beautiful audio out of this system in FM Tuner, BD/DVD, and Internet Radio - no buzz whatsoever. However... the only way that I can get ANY audio from the TV or Cable box to come out of the Sony system is with RCA cables (the old style Red / White). This produces a horrible buzz but at least the TV sound comes out. The manual gives three different options for streaming TV audio through your Home Theater System. I purchased an 8' Rocketfish digital optical cable at Best Buy. It doesn't work at all! No audio at all. It fits, but doesn't quite want to "stay in"; is this normal???
I have the Sony BDV-E570 system, Vizio 46" TV (purchased 6 months ago) and a Comcast Digital HD cable box. All three have the same optical outlet and this cable doesn't "stay" in any of them. Does this sound like an Optical Cord issue? I really don't want to take this system down and lug it back to the store.
Thanks for any help!
Troy
Solved!
Go to Solution.

An optic cable should be able to fix the buzzing sound. If for some reason it isnt staying in the back of the system, then there could possibly be a falty connection in terms of the optic cable input or connector. Otherwise, as long as you have the audio cable hooked up, no matter which route you choose to connect them, and have your tv's audio set to external speakers you should be all set. If this continues to not work, I'd try calling either Geek Squad/Home Theater specialist or call Sony's technical line and see if they have any other suggestions. I myself am a Best Buy Home Theater specialist and this is my initial reaction to the issue at hand.

Trying to connect a Belkin brand audio cable from my MacBook Pro to a Sony flatscreen TV. Cannot get any sound from the laptop out of the TV. What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to connect a Belkin brand stereo audio cable from my MacBook Pro to a Sony flatscreen TV (Apple "genius" handed me the cable to purchase.) I have tried all the ports in the back of the Sony, and tried the volume on both the cable and TV remotes. I cannot get sound out of the Sony from my MacBook Pro laptop. What am I doing wrong???

Downloaded your operating manual. It appears that you need to connect the HDMI to HDMI 1 and the audio to the input socket just to the right of the VGA socket (i.e., between the VGA and the RF input connection). The picture on page13 seems to be the clearest I could find:
Although it's not exactly clear I think they are talking about a standard 3.5 mm (1/8") stereo jack for the audio inpu as opposed to the more common RCA jacks used in the row just above that VGA input socket.
I haven't checked the manual as yet whether you need to set anything special with the controls other than input select.
Note, if that truly is a 3.5 mm stereo jack cables are very common. In your case it would just be a cable with a 3.5 mm jack on each end.
Update:
You will have to experiment with this but I think you will need to try pusing the input button to select either HDMI1 or PC (or Component?). The manual is not clear on this (page 31). Sometimes it just comes down to pushing buttons.

Support for Sony DCR-HC1000

I would like to know if any of you have downloaded movies from Sony DCR-HC1000's tape to iMovie? When i connected the camera with Firewire i see a icon DVin on the camera screen but nothing happens on the iMovie. All it says is cannot find a camcorder.
Can any of you please help?

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I had gone thru the instructions but still cannot get my cam connected to my iMac.
The reason i posted this query is to find out if there are any one in this world who has managed to get the video downloaded from Sony DCR-HC1000. If so then the problem is only the communication between the two and has nothing to do with iMovie support for HC1000.
So please let me know if any of you have done this.
Thanks

Cannot get updates

I cannot get updates:
The system recognises I need updates then says:
The update cannot be saved
A network error has occured. Check your internet connection and try again.
I don't think there is anything wrong with my connection, and I always get the same.
any ideas?
best regards, Iain

What happens is say you try to get them directly, like the big 10.7.4 Combo Update?
