FCP doesn't recognize VTR mode on HVX camera

I'm new to FCP7 and can't figure out why log and capture doesn't recognize the VTR mode on my Panasonic HVX. I turn on the camera, switch it to VTR (by pressing the MCR/VCR button) and the launch FCP with my MBP connected to the camera by FireWire. When I launch L&C and the click on the now button, I get a black screen that says the camera must be in VTR mode. Yet when I launch iMovie, the capture window will play and record the video on the camera just fine. The video is on a miniDV tape. I don't have a P2 card so can't try that method.

L&C! Did that work?
Works for you & I can do it from my MBP, but evidently not from my iPad. Weird.
OK...the thing you need to do first in FCP is choose the DV/NTSC Easy Setup. THEN try to capture from tape.
Yeah, did that first. I'll try again when I get home tonight.

FCP won't recognize my new Sony FX7 camera

FCP won't recognize my new Sony FX7 camera even though iMovie does.
I have FCP ver4.5. Is that why?

That is why.
I don't believe v. 6 of FCP recognizes it either and my guess is that capture will be by the Apple Intermediate Codec AIC in iMovie

FCP doesn't recognize device

Suddenly I can no longer capture clips because my computer doesn't recognize the capturing device(s) (Sony GV-D1000).
I have tried this on two of my computers with two different capturing devices.
I suspect some sort of download upgrade is the culprit as it is suddenly happenning on two computers.
All of the firewire ports recognize other external hard drives (Under System Profile/Hardware/Firewire) but not the GV-D1000 or the PD150 camera, and so it appears that the ports are okay.
User groups say to remove the QuickTime receipt files - I have done this.
The A/V -> DV Out is set to off.
Computers are G4 and a Power Book.
Is there a QuickTime update or some other recent update that would cause this? What else should I look for? How do I get rid of the upgrade?
If I need to uninstall and reinstall QuickTime Pro, which I have already paid for, how do I do this without paying for QuickTime Pro again?

FCP doesn't recognize .motn

Just in the last week or so, FCP has taken a strong dislike to Motion. When I select a clip and do "Send to Motion" with "Embed Motion Content" and "Launch Motion" checked, I get the error: "File Error: Wrong Type."
Same error with "Launch Motion" unchecked.
If I uncheck "Embed Motion Content" Motion boots up and I do my work, but when I save and then try to Import the project I get: "File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown)" and no .motn project imported
I've tried changing the access rules for the folder, and that didn't help. I tried trashing the FCP preferences and the Motion preferences, but that didn't seem to help. I'm really out of ideas. I know I can always render QTs and use them, but I'd like to have the ability to use .motn files right in the timeline.
Anybody have any ideas about this one? Any help would be sorely appreciated.

I seem to be having the exact same issue. I have a series of clips, 4 frames each clip, for a 1 minute piece in a timeline. If I select the clips, go to the "Send to Motion" function and leave "Embed Motion Content" and "Launch Motion" checked, it will prompt me to save, then boom pops up with the exact same error. My timeline is a 23.98 time at 4x3.
Not sure why it is doing this. Have used this function before without issue.

FCP doesn't recognize Motion project file

I've almost completed the lessons in the Apple Pro Training Series "Motion".
When I get to the last lesson and try to import my motion file into Final Cut HD - all motion files are greyed out and not available for import.
What do I need to do to be able to import Motion files into FCP?
Dual 2 GHz Power PC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4) 512 MB DDR SDRAM

If you only have the trial version of Motion, it does
not support integration.
Do you have the full version?
I am having the same problem with a registered FCP Studio suite. Greyed out .motn files on the import requester.
When I change the "Import File" requester selection to All Files and select a .motn file, I get the error message "File Error: 1 files(s) not recognized, assess denied, 1 unknown."
I have tried re-registering, deleting FCP prefs, repairing permissions, running cron scripts, re-booting.
No good so far.
This is on a two day old, format and complete fresh install partition.

Image Capture doesn't recognize my Built-in iSight Camera

I'm trying to use Image Capture but when I open the application is shows the following message:
"No scanner or camera connected".
It's supposed the camera is connected because I'm also using Skype video call (not at the same time I'm trying to use Image Capture) and there's no problem with it.
Image Capture was working perfectly couple months ago, now it isn't.
Does somebody know what the problem might be?
Thanks for your comments and opinions.
Sebastian.

image capture doesn't use the isight, it's for other digital cameras & scanners. use the screen capture ability. hold, command shift, press 4 & tap spacebar to see a camera icon. click on an open / active window when it's lighted in blue, click the mouse. saves the pic as a png on your desktop.

New ipad2 doesn't recognize my Canon EOS xti camera to download photos

When I connect my Canon EOS xti to the Ipad2 via a cable connection, nothing happens.
Occasionally, a message comes up stating the device is not supported. Any suggestions?

The SD card is the easiest fix, but there's something in the settings to make the camera visible. I just can't recall what I've read. It has something to do with pict bridge or some other communication settings. You could try fiddling with those.
That said, honestly? My experience connecting my camera to my device is that it does a bit of battery drainage. I always use a card reader but it is a personal preference thing.

My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode and won't turn off, itunes doesn't recognize it - ¿how can I make it work again?

My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode. I responds to nothing. iTunes doesn't recognize it. It doesn't sync. I've tried to restore and got error 1429. Now it just stays in disc mode and won't turn off. I'm keeping it connected to the charger so it doesn't go dead. Is there anything I can do to resurrect my pod?

To get out of disk mode do a iPod Hard Reset.
Toggle the Hold switch till you dont see the red mark.
Press Menu and Center buttons simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.

FCP 2 doesn't recognize Canon XL1s

Hello. I have Final Cut Express 2.0.3 installed on an iMac G5 10.4.5. FCP will not recognize my Canon XL1s. Not a faulty cable - I've tried two, one brand new. I've tried various Easy Set ups modes. Tried rebooting with all devices unlugged, etc. Nuthin'. If anyone knows of a solution I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

1. Does the camera work when you use iMovie?
If so, you may have a funky Quicktime installation. Do the full Quicktime reinstall. (see below for directions)
2. Does the camera work if you have no external hard drive in the firewire chain?
If so, you have the classic 'Canon collision' on the firewire bus. The usual solution is to add a second firewire bus using an add-in PCI card (for desktops) or a PCMCIA card for Powerbooks. Unfortunetly, your computer does not allow either of these options - so your options are:
a) capture to the system hard drive, unplug the camera, reattach the external drive and move the material over.
b) try capturing using a different camera that plays better with external hard drives.
Good luck.

To do a full quicktime reinstall.
Go to /library/receipts and delete any files that say Quicktime followed by a number e.g. Quicktime703.pkg
Go to the Apple quicktime site and download the appropriate version of Quicktime to your hard drive.
Run the Quicktime installer.
Repair Disk Permissions for your System Disk (Disk Utility > Select the system disk > Repair Disk Permissions)
Reboot

I can't import MXF files shot on a Canon C300 into FCP 10.1.2. I have the Canon plug in for MXF file to FCP import but FCPX still doesn't recognize MXF files when I try to import. Premiere works fine importing MXF on the same computer.

Russ and Luis,
I did uninstall and re-install Canon XF Utility and the Canon FCPX plug in. Still no luck. I checked the CanonXF64.RADPlug folder is on my computer in the Rad Plugins folder in application support This is where it is supposed to be as far as I can figure out.
Another piece of the puzzle is that footage shot on a Canon C300 in 2013 and I reimported today and it DOES import into FCP10.1.3. Footage shot on a different Canon C300 filmed this summer will NOT import into FCPX. The latter will import into Premiere. But I am trying to work in FCPX, but maybe I shouldn’t be??
Any ideas? (screen shots below)
Thanks.
Peace, Huey
FYI Here is what Canon says
"There is another trick that works sometimes though. Try uninstalling the plugin and XF Utility. Then, install the latest XF Utility, followed by the plugin, in that order."
I did do this but no results. Otherwise they say I need to wait for a new plugin.
Here's 2014 Canon C300 files does NOT import to FCPX
Here's 2013 Canon C300 files does import into FCPX. I thought it was Contents folder but another set of footage shot on C300 does import and there is no contents folder for that.

Hi there beee19,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors

If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.
