FCP and Sony HC3... I can control Cam... but no image or capture

Hello.
I just bought the Sony DSR HC3. I can control playback with capture, set in and outs, but there is no image opn the screen.
Any ideas. I did a search and there was one person that had a the same problem, but there was no resolution in the thread.
Thanks in advance for your help.

never mind
i plugged it in directly to my laptop and all is well.
I was plugging it in to the back of my 20 monitor

The log & capture window has become disabled...can control cam, but no vid.

I have been capturing 24p footage from the DVX100a and the log & capture feature has been working fine, until after the print to video feature was used. Now the device control works, but it will only display color bars. I have checked and rechecked the audio/video settings, as well as user preferences. Am I missing something simple?

Probably but it's impossible to tell from here. Search the forum for your camera model and for preview disabled. We get at least one post a day on these topics. I don't follow the threads, I just see them all the time.
Try shutting down your system, disconnect the FW stuff, restart. Usually resets the FW bus. But there are many cameras out there now that tend to drop in and out of the preview window.

IMovie can control camera, but doesn't import the movie.

I have a Canon ZR500 plugged directly into my iMac using DV/Firewire.
iMovie goes through all the correct steps to import my movie off of the camera - I can play, pause, RW, FF, etc. all through iMovie, but when I click the import button in iMovie I just get a blue screen with a timer. The timer counts down but no movie is imported.
I've repaired permissions and tried 2 different cables and nothing helps.
Any ideas?

I am having the same issues as you described as well. I am using a Cannon HD20 with the playback set for HDV, with imovie HD ( iLife 06) set up for video HD 1080i. I am able to control the camera from from the imovie screen however when it comes to either play or import the camera responds with the commands but I only see a blue screen on the mac. I uploaded today to Leopard thinking perhaps that might help and to no avail. I am extremely frustrated I hope someone has an idea what to try next.

Use 2nd gen apple tv and remote control app on iphones and ipad. We can control some functions on the apple tv but unable to purchase, access such controls as reset, restart, turn off home sharing, etc. Home sharing stuck on old apple ID. Please help.

That is why I said to restore via iTunes, did you check the link?
This will put it back to factory settings and you can set it up with the new ID once you reconnect with your HDTV. This is not done via ethernet, as per the link you need to connect to the computer via micro usb. You cannot bypass home sharing.
FYI: An Apple ID cannot be deleted so the old one would still exist (even if you no longer use the email account it is associated with).

TS4185 i can see and hear them, they can hear me, but not see me, why?

Ok,
So when you look at your Preview it is Black indicating a camera is there and selected as no camera would not show a video icon and if from the Preferences would be a grey background and a no camera message.
I see this is a iMac. Any chance it is a G5 one ?
If so go to System preferences > Displays and make sure it is set to Millions. (Change it and change it back to be sure)

I did the restore and it cleared and reset the iPod but after it finished the same error came up. I tried this 3 times. Also it no longer shows up as a drine in My Computer.
if it's relentlessly doing that to you, it's plausible that the message is being caused by a Windows drive letter confusion. (that's consistent with the disappearance for My Computer, too.)
see the following article for troubleshooting information on that possibility:

Having upgraded iOS7 on both my iPad and iPhone yesterday, I am now not able to use my FaceTime on either device. I seem to get through and the other party can hear me but I can see nor hear nothing.

There are text messages that I'm having trouble deleting. With some of my text messages, I can swipe to the left and delete ... or press and hold, get more and delete to trash can icon. But there are some where neither will work. Can't delete. Help!

But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

FCP and Sony HVR-V1U

Does FCP support this new camera?
What about older versions like Final Cut Studio?
Message was edited by: ProImagesPa

Depending on the quality of the product to be delivered to the customer, I've found that shooting in HDV, editing in ProRes 422, then using Compressor to downconvert to MPEG2 for DVD with frame controls on (resize = better) produced MUCH better looking video than starting with DV; fewer moire patterns, less mosquito noise. less primary color banding on diagonal edges, etc.
As for low light, the Z5/Z7 are supposed to have improved the situation with larger sensors, new in camera processing, etc. I don't have one, so I can't address that directly, but I suspect there are expert reviews around somewhere. Once should also consider the Canon XH-A1 series. It has been well reviewed and performs better in low light than the Sony V1U according to those reviews.
But if you iintend to use the camera professionally (I don't), you should go to a pro store with a tape (or memory card as the case may be) in hand and shoot some footage; shoot into some dark corners, view "busy" scenes (chain link fence, anyone?), difficult autofocus situations (for example, with the V1U, where the focus point is NOT in the center: watch is search about for focus), etc.
Then take the tape, etc. and get it ingested to FCP and look at it carefully. A camera is your biggest pro tool, and you should get one that suits your needs and expectations. It is worth the time to test it out and not just rely on reviews here or elsewhere, though they are good starting points for what to look out for.

IMovie 5.0.2 sees and controls camera but won't display video or sound

OK, my camera used to work with my iMac G4 800 just fine, it's a JVC GR-DVF11U back from the stone age (heh but I am having trouble getting any video or audio on my PB 12" G4 with iMovie 5.02. iMovie will control the camera (play, stop, ff, review) just fine but all I get is a blue screen. I tried a friends (modern) Sony (not sure of the model #)and had the same results so I think it's a problem with iMovie, not the cameras. Anyway, any help ya'll could give would be great Thanks

Welcome to discussions!
First-if your mac can control the camera but not see the video,
*Open Garageband
*Play a note or two
*Close Garageband
*Open iMovie
The camera will work now-REALLY!!
If not, look here:
