FCE will not recognise or capture from AC-DVC30E camera!

Hello,
I am trying to capture footage (DV-PAL 48k anamorphic) from a Pan AC-DVC30E camera into Final Cut Express, but a message appears unable to locate device. I have tried every DV setting available and bought a new firewire cable to check it wasn't the firewire connection. Any ideas?
Thank you.

thank you for the quick response David. It is set to VCR and AV in/out settings in the camera are set to DV Out - 'On'.
I have attempted to capture with the camera plugged into a power source - unfortunately this hasn't helped.
I must be missing something, just cannot work it out!

iphoto will not import my photos from my digital camera because it says it is having a problem downloading my photos. I'm using the same digital camera I have always had and have the current version of iphoto and am using snowleapord 10.6.8. Any thoughts?

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Photo will not upload my pictures from the same camera that always worked in IPhoto. Says "could not be imported (may be unrecognized file type or files may not contain valid data). So how do I do it?

Photo will not upload new photos from same camera that always worked in IPhoto. Says "could not be uploaded )may be unrecognized file type or files may not contain valid data). Help!

Try image capture or a card reader - after the photos are safely on your Mac then use the camera's format command to reformat the memory card

Elements 7 does not recognise RAW files from my new camera

Have recently bought a new camera (Canon EOS 60d), which is an import. Whilst I can process Jpegs in Elements the RAW files are not recognised. Help

PSE7 is three years old, and camera makers are constantly changing the formats of the RAW images they use. There's no way for PSE7 to open those new RAW files, beause the latest version of Adobe Camera RAW is incompatible.
You'll have to use the Adobe DNG converter to convert the RAW files and then open the DNG files in PSE:

Or you can purchase PSE10.

Lightroom 4.4 will not recognise ARW files from Sony RX10

I have tried reinstalling LR - still doesn't work. It says all products uptodate as well. Any ideas?
My Mac can read the files fine and displays them correctly in iPhoto

The Sony RX10 is not yet supported in Lightroom.

It will never be supported in Lightroom 4. Adobe never retrospectively adds support to superseded software.
It'll probably be supported in the next version of Lightroom, say 5.4 due sometime in the next couple of months.

Upgraded (6.0.6) iPhoto will not recognise music purchased from ITune

I downloaded the iPhoto 6.0.6 update and the iTunes 7.1.1 update, and now when I try to add any of the songs from my iTunes library which I have purchased from the iTunes store to one of my Iphoto slideshows, it says that my computer is not authorised to play the song (even though it is - i.e. the songs still play on iTunes). The same problem does not occur with songs in my library not purchased from iTunes.
I also had no such problems before I downloaded the updates. Very annoying. Any answers?

Actually, Apple does list the QuickTime requirement, but you have to look for it. Updates do not usually require other updates (although lately some of them have). However, when you upgraded from iTunes 6 to iTunes 7, you caused your Mac to need the system requirements for the upgrade. They are listed here http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ on the Apple Download iTunes 7 page. Notice under "Additional video requirements" where it says QuickTime 7.1.5 or later, which links to the update page for QuickTime.
I agree it would be nice if they made it more obvious. It is a good idea to get into the habit of checking system requirements before upgrading any software, to avoid exactly this kind of surprise.

Sony Bravia Z5500 will not recognise HDMI output from Apple TV 2nd Gen

After a frustrating time trying every connection possibility - various HDMI cables, all 4 slots, I still had no picture or sound. A week later (living so far from the shop) - I( angrily confronted stafff and told them I had a dud Apple TV. I had spent hours on the phone, firefox, apple and sony sites.
They took it from me and plugged it into a samsung 3d tv and - hey presto - instant picture. I feel like an idiot - and I thought I knew all about technical issues. But this is just annoying me. They looked at this old man and just shook their heads. I am resorting to the hope that someone out there knows the answer ... ??

got a bravia KDL-40WE5W and my appletv 1g never had any problems but if you messed with hdmi settings if thats possible and forced it to use various overscan only accept 1080p or something that could cause problems I guess

Iphoto will not import any pics from iphone or camera anymore?

I am having trouble importing photos from my Iphone and camera to iphoto. Worked fine in the past and now it says it is file is unrecognizable format.
Also when viewing photos, I see the thumbnails, but when I want to see a large version, i just get a black screen. Any suggestions?

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Camera Raw - will not open raw files from a supported camera

does anyone know a solution for camera raw to recognize my raw files, I just upgraded to cs6 and it is a supported camera. I've updated and it still won't work any solutions?

I should have asked which OS version do you have on the Mac? The current ACR plug-in requires 10.7 or newer and if you’re still on 10.6.x then the updater might not do anything because your OS is too old.
The first thing to try is Help / Updates and see if there is a newer version.
If that doesn’t work, then you can manually install ACR 8.3, the last version compatible with OS X 10.6.x, from here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/camera-raw-84-support-policy.html
And if your OS is new enough, then you can install whatever the latest version (currently ACR 8.7.1) from here:

FCE will not capture PAL footage

Hi,
I'm trying to make a video for some English friends with footage they sent to me which is in PAL format. Normally I use HDV, so I changed the setting under "Easy Setup" to DV-PAL, but FCE will not let me capture it. The camera reads it and displays it on the screen, but it is not recognized by the computer. When I try to "capture now" an error message eventually appears saying "This operation could not be completed as there is no video."
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben

Sorry...I am located in the U.S. My "Easy Setup" setting is normally HDV 1080i60 but I have changed it to DV-PAL. I don't know much about PAL or the different PAL settings (anamorphic, 32khz, etc). I'm not sure I understand your last question, but the camera does display "DVout i.Link" once connected to the computer.
I have tried trashing my preferences but no luck. Apologies for not knowing more about the situation but some of this stuff is a bit over my head. Thanks!

Solution when iMovie or FCE will not import AVCHD files or MTS files

Problem: iMovie or FCE will not import your footage from SDHC camera with files in AVCHD structure, or cannot import .mts or .m2ht files (which you may have copied from AVCHD structure. When mounting camera, you can see the camera as disk but iMovie will not try to import footage. If you point Final Cut Express (FCE) to the file structure, it fails to recognize it as a valid file structure. (I have Canon HF10, but understand that this problem is common on many camera models, maybe camera has been turned off at the wrong moment?)
Cause: Faulty file structure on camera or disk
Soultion: Rebuild AVCHD file structure using an AVCHD editing tool. I found multiAVCHD (multiavchd.deanbg.com), which is not perfect, but will do the job. And it is freeware (possible to donate).
I would like comments about others experience - but at least this worked for me:
- Download and install the software (Yes, you need Windows)
- Set the right parameters: mostly default, I didn´t want any recoding. But tick off to keep the source files!
- Select the AVCHD source (or source .mts or m2ts files) and destination
- Start rebuilding: select output for Sony Playstation 3
- Put the AVCHD file structure on a USB stick
*If using iMovie:*
Start iMovie and plug the USB into the mac (virtual disk (.dmg file) or other media should work fine as well). The USB may contain other files as well, but the root of AVCHD must be named AVCHD.
iMovie recognizes the drive as a camera. All is not 100% well, as the dates for making the footage is lost, and the thumbnails are distorted if seen at all, until clicked on. But then import worked for most clips. Some clips gave an error message, but FCE was able to import these (Log&transfer).
*If using FCE:* Use Log and transfer on this file structure (need not be on external disk)
If you have a better solution - please share! I suppose there are other tools out there which may correct the file structure with less side effects and no errors.
If you go for this solution - remember the author of multiAVCHD, he will surely appreciate a donation. I guess everybody will agree that this is worth at least as much as you paid for your SDHC card.
Why a function to correct faulty file structure is not included in iMovie and FCE is beyond my understanding!
I notice many users salvage their footage by converting the .MTS files, using Handbrake etc. But I believe rebuilding the file structure is faster and with no quality reduction.

Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone is still subscribed to this and can help.
I have a Sony HDR-SR10. Yesterday I was able to connect it to my iMac by USB and view all the footage in the import window of iMovie (08).
Last night, to save time sorting at home, I took it to work with me and using the software that came with the camera installed on a Windows PC went through to see which files were rubbish and could be deleted before importing to speed up the transfer on to my mac.
Today, my Mac won't recognise the Camera!?!?!?!
Have I inadvertently reformatted the .MTS files or the camera itself, to windows or something? CanI change it back??
I'm currently creating a new disk image of the camera on my Mac in the vain hope that it will work and be recognised by the Mac as a camera. I can see from the progress box the following text:
Creating Image "Sony Camcorder Media.dmg"
=====Progress Bar=====
Reading (WindowsFAT32 :1)...
Which is why I think I've done something seriously wrong!! .. because it mentions windows!
HELP! HELP! HELP!
I have my entire honeymoon and the first year of my son on this camera and I want to edit with iMovie! Especially as I just paid for iLife 09 upgrade!

HELP!!!! Adobe will not recognise my serial number - trying to upgrade from LR4 to LR5

Help... I purchased Adobe Lightroom 4 in January 2013 via Amazon. I am now trying up upgrade to Lightroom 5 (via the Adobe site), and it will not recognise my serial number. Has anyone experienced this before? I do not want to buy into the Cloud scheme, so happy to pay the upgrade for my LR. I have all payment details from Amazon.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello,
I am in the installation section. There are 3 options on page:
1) I have a serial number and want to license Lightroom
2) need a serial umber? Buy - using your web browser
3) 30 day trial
I assumed that because I already had a serial number from my LR4 purchase, I select the first option, go from there and pay for the upgrade. When I select that, it takes me to another page where I need to enter a serial number. This is where I am getting stuck.

Lightroom says that I have the latest version, but Lightroom does not recognize RAW captures from my new Panasonic DMC-GH4. When will an update for this camera be available?

Lightroom says that I have the latest version, but Lightroom does not recognize RAW captures from my new Panasonic DMC-GH4. When will an update for this camera be available?

The GH4 must be very new as it’s not listed in Adobe’s supported cameras, so wait until the next version of LR. Usually there is one every 3-4 months with a release-candidate available at Adobe Labs before that: http://labs.adobe.com/

Equium M50 will not recognise the LAN port - error: Network Cable unplugged

I own a Toshiba Equium M50 and have problems with the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller.
I used to connect via an 'ADDON' Modem/ADSL Switch and had no problems. I then replaced the ADDON with a 'NETGEAR' DG834G ADSL Modem/Router to gain the wireless port, and since then my machine will not recognise the LAN port. <error: Network Cable unplugged>.
I know that the cables are OK as I used them with other laptops and had no trouble. I can also plug in a PCI card to connect without any problems. It looks to me as if the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller has a problem with the netgear Modem/Router.
Anyone out there with a similar experience and some advice/suggestions?
PLEASE

Hi
For me it doesnt show like a LAN card problem but your router is a problem.
Check the device manager if the LAN card was properly recognized. If there are no yellow exclamation marks so everything is ok!
You can try to delete the LAN card from the device manager and after new reboot install the LAN driver again.
The issue has stared after installing or connecting the new Netgear modem router.
Therefore I would recommend to checking firstly the settings or to update the firmware on this router.
I have found additionally these useful websites

I have attempted to upgrade os4 to os7. icloud has taken an old expiered email address for which i do not know the password. It will not recognise my current email and password with itunes. Any help appreciated

I have attempted to upgrade os4 to os7. At the end, it threw an error that i had to turn off "Find my iphone" on my phone, which seems to be impossible at that stage as i could not access beyond the upgrade screen.
I thin chose to set up as new iphone, but icloud has taken an old expired email address for which i do not know the password. icloud will not recognise my current itunes email and password, so i now have os7 but am unable to restore from my itunes back up.
Desperately need help please... Any help appreciated
Thankyou

If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.
