Driver For Panasonic PV-GS 150

Hello, I was hoping someone might know where I can get the driver for my camcorder to work on my Mac. It's a Panasonic PV-GS150. Any help on where to go to get what I need would be great.
Thanks!

Hi
When I bought my Panasonic camera I didn't need to get drivers to run it on the Mac. All you need is a 4 - 6 pin firewire cable (no, it doesn't come with the camera!)It might be a good idea to take your camera with you when you buy it just to make sure you get the correct one.
Attach the small end to the DV outlet on your camera and the other end to a firewire port on your computer.
Open iMovie -> New Project -> Turn your camera on to video playback and yopu should then get an Install option on iMovie. Rewind your footage if necessary, then download.
Hope this helps, come back if you have more questions.
Cheers

Driver for Panasonic KX-P1124

Hi Folks, I’m a little embarrassed in that I have been using Apple computers since the IIe was new and can’t seem to resolve what should be a simple problem.
I have a Panasonic KX-P1124i printer that I have been using for many years on a Power Mac 6100 using a PowerPrint adapter. Since I now only use this printer for making labels, I’m trying to attach it to my Silver Tower G4 using a IEEE 1284 Parallel to USB cable.
Since there apparently is no Mac driver for this printer, I downloaded Ghostwriter and the Epson LQ850 PPD which should work as this printer emulates both the Epson LQ850 and the IBM Proprinter X24E. Unfortunately, it does not work.
When I attempt to print the screen indicates the computer is sending data, but the printer does not respond.
I’d appreciate any suggestions as I have had a serious brain flush!

You could try the alternative communications software (backend) usbtb from _http://buymelunch.org/printing/usbtb/_. That software will sometimes work better with parallel to USB adapters.
You might also want to try another parallel to USB adapter if you can find one you can borrow or find one that you can return to the store for full refund if it doesn't work. If I remember correctly, the PowerPrint adapter goes back a bit. It may not be fully USB compliant.

Driver for Panasonic DP-8035

We recently got Panasonic DP-8035 on our network in an office of 80 employees.
10 of the top Managers have Mac Book Pro / Mac Book Ratina with MAC OS X (10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7 and 10.8) and system specs varring from Core i3 to Core i7, RAM ranging from 4GB to 16GB.
Apart from the above, we are equipped with 1 Mac Pro and 6 iMac(s) with the specs again varring from Core i3 to Core i7, RAM ranging from 4GB to 16GB.
The rest of our computers (about 50) are Windows based computers. I found Driver & Communication utility set for Windows for Panasonic DP-8035, and all of the window based computers had it installed and are able to communicate with it.
Now I am trying to get my hands on Driver and Communication utility for our Mac Products.
By simply following the basic procedure through Preferences > Print & Scan > (add new printer); I am able to add DP-8035 as my network printer. When I send a Print to the printer, it gets Spooled on my Macs, but I can't get anything on the Printer. While checking Job Ques and Job Memory, I don't seem to find any history of the Print Job sent from my Macs.
I spent all yesternight running between my Macs and Printer, trying to find any possibility to get my Macs to Print through Panasonic DP-8035, but in vain.
If anybody have a solution, please share; I am in mess!

Here's the official list of supported printers:
OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download
No Panasonic printer is on it. That means you're completely dependent on Panasonic to provide a driver for the printer, or some other way to make it work. Otherwise there's probably nothing you can do. The only thing you can try is to set up the printer manually as a generic PCL or Postscript device. Usually, that doesn't work.

I have an IMAC I bought from a friend. I think he wiped it clean. I tried to go to panasonic to download a driver for my camcorder. It put an icon on my desktop that is setup-1.exe when I try to open it, it says I don't have a program to open it with.

I tried to download a driver from Panasonic for my camcorder. It puts an Icon on my desktop that is called set-up1.exe. when I try to open this I get an error message that says I don't have a program to open it. any suggestions. Also, I tried to download the latest ITunes. It put an Icon on my desktop but won't let me open it or run it.

In general, you don't need drivers for camcorders on Macs, and the .exe file you downloaded is a Windows program, which won't run on a Mac unless you also have Windows installed.
It would help a lot if you tell us the exact model camcorder you are using, and what application you want to use it with.
Regarding iTunes, the latest version is iTunes 11. You need to have OS X 10.6.8 or later to install iTunes 11. Your profile says you have OS X 10.4.11, which is a much older version of OS X, so you won't be able to install iTunes 11. (Here are the iTunes 11 specs.)

Need a new hard drive for T43...

I need help finding a new hard drive for my T43. It appears that my hard drive is starting to fail. It just seems to not power up all the time during boot up or it just dies after it's in used for a little while. The T43 seems to only be compatible with certain types of hard drives though and I can't find any place that still sells them. Does anyone know of a place that still sells hard drive compatible with the T43?

Welcome to the forum!
Any PATA laptop drive will work as long as it's 9.5mm high, but most of today's drives will throw a "2010 error" on boot, which is really not a big deal IMHO.
The biggest hard drive that won't throw this error is Fujitsu MHV2120AH (120GB/5400rpm) that has been discontinued a while ago. Expect to pay a hefty premium for a sealed one.
A lot of good info here:

Internal hard drive for use as scratch disk

Am running OS 10.4.11 on a dual core 2.3 Ghz PowerPC G5. Want to install a 2nd internal hard drive for use as a scratch disk w/ FCP and for my media files, etc. Given that I can only accomodate an SATA I drive w/ 150 Gbps transfer rate what might some decent choices be for a 500 Gb to 1 TB drive suited for video (and a PowerPC G5)? I'll also be adding an external drive for backup if anyone has any suggestions.

Thanks for the recommendations. I had been looking at the Hitachi CinemaStar series but you have to reset the drive to SATA 1 for use w/ a G5 PowerMac. Resetting the drive, according to Hitachi, can only be done on a PC which I don't have access to. And I think that holds true for all their drives that are not strictly SATA 1.

The right external drive for my configuration

I am looking to get an external hard drive for backup purposes and also to extend the storage space of a sorely limited Powerbook G3. It has a 6GB hard drive. In other words, you can't use it for anything except the internet and a few documents!
I've done some research but am no closer to figuring out what drive would be best for me. The thing is, I need the convenience of a portable because I'll be using it for backup with all 3 of the computers in different places in the house (an iBook G4, a Powerbook G3, and an iMac G3). But because I'll be using it for 3 computers and want to store bootable clones of at least my iBook's 60GB drive and the iMac's 20GB drive, I need more storage space than I've seen in portables. I also need to be able to run applications off it for the Powerbook.
I don't think I can afford to get more than one drive, especially since portables seem pretty pricey. I'd really rather not spend more than $150 and definitely not more than $200.
Anyone have any suggestions for the best solution?

Hi amybl,
You can get a portable 120-160GB firewire/USB drive for less than you think. OWC's drives are rated highly too.

If your PB is the Firewire model the Firewire 400 (w/o USB) is even cheaper.

I need to replace one of my hard drives for Power Mac G5

Hi guys, I've been having some trouble turning on my computer. I found out that one of my hard drives (I have two) have been damaged. The damaged hard drive is 250 gigs. Its a MAXTOR hard drive and on the top right corner it says "DiamondMax 10" Then right below that... "250GB SATA150 HDD".
My second hard drive is fine, it has 150 gigs on it. However I am not able to start up my computer with that hard drive. Anyways, my real question is (or two questions)...
1) Is it possible to "upgrade" and get a hard drive that has more memory (such as 1tb) or would I need the same model to replace the bad hard drive?
2) Where can I find a replacement? Please list some sites or retailers.
Thanks guys

You can move up to 2TB if you want to, as those are getting pretty reasonable at this point. I have had a few Seagate 1TBs in backup service for a while (SATA300 versions) and have recently moved all to 2TB Hitachis because the 2TB Seagates were not 7,200 RPM. The Hitachis have been so far a breeze, but I only have a couple of months on them at this point.
Concur with BD about the "avoid green" thoughts. The SATA300 drives I obtained have all been "plug and play" with no jumpers needed, so that's another plus.
2) Where can I find a replacement? Please list some sites or retailers.
All over the place. As to retailers, out here, Best Buy and Fry's have been good, but I don't know what you have in your neighborhood. Online are all sorts of vendors and perhaps even a little more price competition, but you should not be surprised by the price variance on the same items from different sites. One thing you can do is zero in on a candidate drive and then Google the part number for wider coverage.
BTW, are you talking hardware damage or directory damage?

External drive for capturing tapes

I'm finally getting around to capturing a lot of miniDV tapes laying around, and making some DVD's out of them.
My Panasonic PV-GS150 camcorder is connected to my MBP via firewire 6 pin to 4 pin cable.
Since my MPB is down to ~60 GB free, I want to use an external drive to store all the raw data. I have a WD Passport drive for that purpose. It's connected via USB and it comes up cleanly in Finder.
Two questions --
1) should I reformat the drive, presently at FAT32? I'm guessing yes.
2) how can I configure iMovie to use this external drive? I didn't see anything in Preferences to do so.
Thanks!

G-drive from Apple = rip off if you ask me. Apple simply charges way to much for stuff like that. $260 for a normal sized (not pocket drive) 500GB external drive is too much.
Example, while not Firewire 800 compatible, for $10 less, Frys.com has a Seagate FreeAgent Pro 1 TERABYTE drive with eSATA, USB2, and Firewire 400 (free shipping as well) and it comes with a 5-year warranty. So twice the storage for less money.
Or you could get a 500GB external drive with FW400 ports for about $100+ less than Apple wants and use the savings to buy a Firewire hub and STILL save money.
But you can also find other FW-800 compatible external drives for less than Apple at many places and since you have FW800 ports, you probably should take advantage of them. Lacie has a number of FW800 compatible drives, are a known Apple friendly company, and you can buy direct from them or through many third party retailers. A quick check shows a 500GB model with FW800 for $190 direct from them. Other vendors might sell it cheaper.
Good luck,
Patrick

Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with networks that require any kind of authentication other than a WPA or WPA2 Personal password.
When the Mac OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the Mac OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac didn’t ship with Lion, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
Don't install the Thunderbolt update -- it's defective.

Support for Panasonic GH4 RAW (RW2) Files?

Any word on support for Panasonic GH4 RAW (RW2) files? They load into Aperture (and Photoshop, too) with the dreaded "unsupported image type" alert.

The GH4 comes with a software disc that includes SILKYPIX Developer Studio 4.1 SE for Mac & PC. Installing the software seems to also install the Panasonic Raw 2 Image Plugin. Once the software was installed, I was able to open the RW2 files shot with the GH4 in iPhoto, Lightroom 5 and Preview. After SILKYPIX Developer Studio 4.1 SE is installed, the RW2 preview images also appear in Finder.
I was not able to find the software on the Panasonic web site, so if you are installing on a new Mac without a CD/DVD drive, you'll need to use Remote Disc.

T42p WDDM Driver for Windows 7 Aero

Does anyone know if there is or will be a WDDM compliant driver available for T42p to use Aero in Windows 7?
It looks like the graphics card will handle it but it's not part of the driver.
The model number of my T42p is Type 2373-GVU
Graphics Card:
ATI MOBILITY FIRE GL T2/T2e AGP (0x4E54)
Internal DAC(400MHz)
128 MB
Thanks in advance.

The driver for the FireGL T2 should be included in W7, as it was in Vista.
Have you already installed W7 and ran all the updates?

Welcome to the forum!
What's the model number of your T42, 237?-???
If your graphic card is Radeon 7500, you can't run Aero with it.
