Canon HF100 not recognized by MacBookPro but works fine with MacPro???

I got a Canon HF100, both Mac Pro and MacBookPro running 10.5.5 with iMovie 08. Import works fine on the Mac Pro but the laptop cannot import. It recognizes sees the camera when I attach the USB cable in PC mode. System Profiler sees the camera under " USB"
When I try to import a movie project iMovie08 only brings up iSight. I can't toggle the "camera mode icon" to my camcorder.It stays put at "iSight".
How can two computer running the same program under the same OS not function the same way?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Sometimes this tip can come into play:
*All USB ports are not created equally*
"Many times I have hooked up a USB hub to my MacBook, only to plug in an iPod and have it rest in the a phantom world, neither charging nor showing up in iTunes. This happened whether the hub was powered or not, and even if the port had no other devices plugged in. On this week's MacBreak Weekly podcast, Andy told us why. The rear USB port, the one nearest the screen, is in fact already on an internal hub, shared with everything USB inside the case: the keyboard, the Bluetooth, the trackpad, the iSight camera and the infra-red receiver. Adding a four way hub to this is bound to end in disaster.
So I tested it out. I hooked up a hub to the front port, loaded with two USB hard drives (both self powered), a Logitech wireless laser mouse and an iPod Touch (in its dock). Result? It works perfectly every time. The same setup swapped to the rear port is intermittent. Sometimes the iPod works, sometimes it doesn't."

  • Macbook Pro does not see Fast Ethernet but works fine with Gigabit Ethernet

    Hi to everybody,
      It is some time I have a problem connecting my unibody Macbook Pro (late 2008) to the ethernet cables in my office. There are 16 wall jacks in the lab, of which 13 are Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) and 3 are Gigabit Ethernet. No matter what I do, if I connect to the 100 Mbit/s jacks, my Macbook does not see the connection and keeps saying "Cable unplugged". If I switch to a Gigabit jack, then a connection is quickly established.
    I have spent one whole afternoon debugging. Here is what I did:
    My computer dual boots Mac OS X and Linux. No matter which operating system I use, the problem is the same.
    Using different Cat.5 cables does not change the situation (I tried three of them.)
    All the 13 Fast Ethernet jacks do not work.
    All the 3 Gigabit jacks work smoothly.
    What puzzles me is that my computer happly uses the newest technology (Gigabit ethernet) but has problems with the oldest one. Has somebody else experienced the same problem?

    After a lot of struggle, I discovered that other people had this very issue as well. It seems that the cause is a faulty Realtek chip used in the ethernet cards of some MacBooks and other brands. There is apparently no way to fix this: I solved my problems by buying a Gigabit Ethernet switch which I connected to the Fast Ethernet wall jack. (Another option might be to use a Ethernet-to-USB adapter - but I did not try this as I have no adapter of this kind.)

  • I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My wireless mouse with not scroll in mail but works fine in other applications? Any suggestions?

    I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My apple wireless mouse will not scroll in Mail but works fine in other applications.
    Any suggestions?

    First, see this discussion. If the solution suggested there doesn't work for you, continue.
    If you've installed a Mail plugin called "Mail Unread Menu" and you know how to remove it, please do that, then quit and relaunch Mail. Test. Otherwise, see below.
    Back up all data.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select 
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
    2. Repeat with this line:
    /Library/Mail/Bundles
    This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    Hi,

    HP ProBook 5220m (Bios Version F50) Fan not working with battery power but work fine with adapter plugged in.
    This issue was found in my replacement motherboard. the original mother do not have this issue.
    The origianl mother to be replace is due to can't power on after a power failure recovery. I believe was due to power surge killed the motherboard's power controller circuitry.
    Appreciate any one can provide clue for resolving the problem.

  • Superdrive no longer recognizes CD, but works fine with DVD

    my Superdrive seems to have a problem recognizing any type of CD media, but works fine with DVD media.
    I reinstalled Leopard and still the same problem. I also zapped the NVRAM (this is an Intel 2.0 Ghz Mac Mini w/ 2 GB Ram.
    Is there anything else I can do or do I just need to replace the drive?

    Typically when this sort of symptom appears, it relates to a hardware failure, either due to a faulty lens, or dirt. You might try a lens cleaner to ensure it is not the latter.
    Since this is a 2.0GHz mini, it ought to be still under warranty - if that is the case it would be wise to have Apple, or an approved service provider, check it and undertake any necessary repairs.

  • My iphone5 wont charge with usb port but works fine with wall plug... Infact computer. Doesn't recognizes the iphone

  • Ibook g4 cant turn on with charger, but works fine with battery

    i have a ibook g4 cant turn on with charger.
    using battery, ibook works fine-----so not the battery problem
    charger works fine on other ibook-----so not the charger problem
    the DC-in board works fine on other ibook-----so not the DC-in problem
    reset the PMU----no work.
    when the battery is on ibook, plug in the charger, light is green, but will not charge the battery. in OS X it shows running on battery. if run out off battery, will turn off.
    if took off the battery, and plug the charger, cant turn on; and light is dark.
    any idea?
    PMU chip is broken? how can i change the PMU?
    thanks a lot

    you are holding Shift-Control-Option-Power correct?
    To replace the PMU requires a new / refurb logic board.

  • Hp 3510 prints only blank pages from i-pad, but works fine with xp configured lap top. why? help!

    i have an hp3510 wireless printer that worked fine with both my i-pad and on my laptop when 1st installed.  now it will only print blank pages with the i-pad although it still works fine when using my xp configured laptop.  can anyone tell me how to correct the i-pad problem so that i can print wirelessly using that device?
    thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I would start by powering down the Apple device, make sure that you hold the power button down, and slide the bar on the screen to "Off". If you have more that 1 iOS device that you use with the printer (like another iPad or an iPhone) power them down at the same time. Then turn them all back on and try to print to the printer.
    If still having a problem, I would then power down the printer, router, and Apple device.
    1. Unplug the router, (most do not have an on/off button)
    2. power down printer and Apple device
    3. Wait about 20-30 seconds
    4. Plug router back in and wait for it to be fully operational and all the light on it back as they were before unplugging it.
    5.Power printer and apple device back on (check to settings of iPad to make sure that it is still on the same network as printer and that "Ask to join other networks" is ON).
    6. Reattempt to print

  • Can connect to router but not ad hoc network. Works fine with iPhone.

    My brand new ipad on ios 3.2.2 connects fine to my router and my jailbroken iphone running Mywi. However, I cant connect to an ad hoc network set up on my laptop running vista. My iphone connects to the ad hoc without any problems. I've tried everything, static ips, wep, wpa, hard resets, restoring, resetting network settings but no go. How can' everything else be fine but not connecting to the ad hoc network, especially since it works fine to connect with the iphone?
    Btw, the ad hoc is for controlling music software on the laptop through wifi. It's not for getting internet.
    Can anyone shed some light on this?
    Many thanks,

    Hi and welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Did you try doing a search, upper right corner of this window, on remote control? There have been a number of discussions during the last two weeks about remote control problems.
    There have also been discussions about networking an iPad via another computer, such as iMac or MacBook Pro, using the computer's wireless card rather than a router.
    See if one of those will answer your question.

  • Gasbuddy web site not working properly with firefox, but working fine with explorer

    I've noticed when I load the web site gasbuddy.com, it is not working properly. It does load, just not performing like it should. When I try using gasbuddy.com on explorer 9, it works fine. I've already tried working in safe mode and that didn't solve the problem with gasbudy.com. Any suggestions as to how to fix the problem? I did do some prior investigating, and I'm very cautious about removing my cookies. It seems when I do that procedure, I lose too much info on certain web sites----weather.com, weatherunderground, etc. Just not sure how to remove cookies to solve a problem with out causing other problems? Thank you.

    I'm glad we were able to figure it out. Many sites are designed with stretchy columns that work with either full zoom or text-only zoom, but definitely not all of them.

  • Imgur pictures do not load in firefox, but work fine in IE.

    Embedded images in forums hosted in imgur (e.g. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/oBNUb.jpg[/IMG] )won't load when using firefox.
    This does not happen when using IE.
    Also, the images load properly when I paste the image's url in the adress bar (e.g. http://i.imgur.com/z1oHH.jpg ).
    When clicking on a link to a imgur page (e.g. http://imgur.com/uIPsM ) the whole page will load, except for the image.
    I have disabled all firewalls and antivirus software, it still doesn't work. I also deleted cache&cookies, fooled around with some connection settings and rebooted. Still no success. What bothers me is that imgur works perfectly fine with IE.

    Upgraded to ff4 , no video but sound and chat are ok on justin.tv. Ended up downgrading back to 3.6 and voilla, all is well again!!!

  • Verizon mail deleted from server is not deleted from IPAD2 but works fine on Android

    I have both an Android phone and an IPAD.  This Android (RAZR) and my previous one (Droid2) worked fine.   Mail deleted from the server is also deleted from the phone.  Deleted from phone would delete from server.  Worked great.  On IPAD, when setting up the Verizon mail account, it defaults to POP and I can set it to delete from server when removed from IPAD.  However, mail deleted from the server is not deleted from the IPAD and so I have to remove it manually (a second time).  Why does it work on Android and not on IPAD?  Settings on Android appear to also be for POP.  Can anyone help with this?  It's too hard to believe that with so many people using IPADs, that this is such a problem.   I've read that Verizon isn't supporting IMAP, but how in the world is the Android phone working?
    MrBigHands

    Any mail service POP downloads a copy of the message to the phone. It would then need to be deleted from the device itself. What you are referring to where its deleted in both places is an IMAP type email service.
