Fcp x doesn't recognize sony fs100.

Hi I could use some help. I just purchased a sony nx fs100. I shot some video at hd 1080/30p fh and at hd 1080/60p fh. The problem is I can't get fcp to reconize the camera. I can see the camera is connected in finder. Is this the result of a setting on the camera?
Thanks,

If your camera records QuickTime movie files, you can use Import > Files.
Otherwise, try using Import From Camera (the little Camera Icon at the far left of the toolbar).
Go here if you want to determine whether your camera is supported by FCP X:

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)

ADE doesn't recognize Sony Reader in Mac OS 10.5 after Sony EBL 3.0 update

I've got a PRS-505, and I just put Sony eBook Library 3.0 on my Mac laptop running Leopard 10.5, but Adobe Digital Editions still won't recognize the Reader when I plug it in.
I've tried deauthorizing the computer and the device, and reinstalling ADE. The Reader works with eBook Library, and it still works with ADE on my old Windows machine.
But, whenever I plug in my Reader on the Mac, it gets recognized by EBL but not ADE. Nothing happens in ADE.
Any help would be appreciated.

YEAY!
I just got the solution (that worked for me, anyway) from a Sony support rep. No PC or VMWare needed.
OK, you've installed Sony eBook Library v3, and Adobe Digital editions, you've set up your acocunts and authorized your computer on both of them, and you've authorized your Reader with the Sony Library application.
You go to the public library ebook download page, either through the Sony Library or just through a bookmark.
You check out a book, and open it in Adobe Digital Editions, which still won't recognize your Reader.
BUT, in the Sony Library app, you can now click "File, Import.." and go find the pdf you downloaded with the Adobe app.
On my Mac, it was in ~/Documents/Digital Editions
Import it, and drag it to your Reader.
The first time you do this, it will ask you to authorize the Reader with your Adobe ID.
Worked like a charm.

LR5.6 Doesn't Recognize Sony Lens

My Sony A6000 is set to save RAW+JPG images. When I import the RAW files to LR, I can turn on the camera profile and LR recognizes my camera and lens. However, when I import JPG files, LR cannot recognize the lens used in the photos. I am using the Zeiss 16-70 OSS lens and this is recognized immediately for the RAW files. However, when I turn on the Camera Profile for the JPG files, LR forces me to select a manufacturer and when I select "Sony", the wrong lens is selected. There is no way to correct this.
The Camera and Lens are identified correctly in the EXIF metadata.
I think this is a bug. Has anyone encountered this issue?
David

Most lens profiles are only for raw files, not jpgs. This is normal. You can hack a copy of the existing lens profile file to change the raw=true to raw=false and put it in your users lens profile area and then LR will that copy for jpgs.

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?

I have a Mac Mini, and it won't accept connecting my Sony video camera. So I got a SD mem card reader to unload my movies from. It worked the first time I used it a few months ago. This time it says it doesn't recognize the format I am trying to use?

I have all thenecessary updates. I have switched over from a PC to Mac back in April and have nad nothing but problems adapting. I don't know why this worked the first time, and put my videos inti imovie, and now it doesn't recognize it at all. And the Mem card reader does work, because I just put the SD card from my regular camera into it and it downloaded those fine, it just won't take my movies!

Which sony camera? I have a Sony HDR-CX550 right now and have been able to use the SD card as well as connect the camera directly. I also had CX110 that work too. You may want to try to copy the complete top level folder from the SD card to the Hard drive, then try to "import from Camera archive" and select that folder.

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.

I had to reinstall ADE on another computer. Now it doesn't recognize my Sony eReader

I had to reinstall ADE on another computer. Now it doesn't recognize my Sony eReader. How do I get it to recognize it? Do I need to "unauthorize" my ADE id on the 1st device? Is that the problem? How the hell do you talk to a live body at Adobe? This is ridiculous.
Ted

Hello - the chat service for ADE helped me find an answer. With Sony ereaders, you always need to have the Sony reader app installed on the same machine as ADE. There are some drivers installed with the Sony reader app that are needed. Since I did that, ADE now acknowledges my Sony PRS-350.
Here is a link: https://ebookstore.sony.com/download/
The chat line was very helpful with this; they tell me you cannot call in to get ADE support - you can only use the chat box.

ADE 3.o doesn't recognize my Sony PRS-T1: please help me !!!!!!!!!!!

ADE 3.o doesn't recognize my Sony PRS-T1. Installation run well on desktop. Unlock of an e-book run well on desktop. Ebook copied to reader. But reader is not recognized be ADE so I cannot unlock ebook on reader.
Thanks a lot.

Hello
I am very sorry to tell you that ADE is not compatible with Prs-T1. You have to use calibre or reader for pc. In reader for pc you can autorize yor reader for drmprotected material. After that you can use calibre if you dont like reader for pc.

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.

COLOR doesn´t recognize the editing in FCP

I have a really big problem.
I have only one track in the timeline , when I export to Color and make the play. ! Surprise! , the editing is not the same .
I had trying to export the EDL o XML and put me " Media files of one or more clips are missing timecode tracks and may also be missing reel names "
Could be possible that the Color doesn´t recognize the editing by this way ???
If that is true, How can I make to find the timecode ?. I need to make the color with the color , but now is really difficult.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks

Unable to capture HDV in FCP 6.0.1 from Sony HVR-Z1P

Hi I'm attempting to capture HDV footage from a Sony Z1.
I am trying to capture some HDV footage I shot with the Z1, but FCP simply refuses to recognize the Z1
I'm certain I've got all the settings correct:
- Camera is set to HDV firewire out
- capture presets is set to HDV
- device control preset is set to Sony HDV FireWire
- sequence preset is set to HDV 1080i50 (I'm in Australia)
- footage IS HDV 1080i50
But I keep getting the "Unable to Initialize Capture Device and Device Control" popup. I've tried everything
- rebooted the camera
- restarted FCP
- rebooted the system
- changed the capture/device control settings in FCP and tried out a regular DV deck to make sure it wasn't the cable
Nothing has worked.
I'm on a MBPro I7. No Kona card or anything like that, just trying to capture through firewire.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Matt
At present it will capture HDV in IMovie but not FCP 6.0.1

Thanks Adrian, since posting the thread I've thought of that too but unfortunately to no avail. From other forums I've read this seems to be a central theme to the solution to my capture woes. I since have sorted the problem it was in Audio/Video Settings.
In the end I set my Audio/Video Settings to:
Sequence Preset to: Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i50
Capture Pre-HDV- Apple intermediate Codec
Device Control Preset: Sony HDV 1080i50 Firewire
And hey presto my I'm capturing HD without any problems. Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

The cliche HDV problem on FCP 5.1.4 with sony HC7

having the pain in the butt problem i have been seeing everyone run into lately. MacBook Pro runnin FCP 5.1.4 & the Sony HDR-HC7 & i cannot get a Sequence, Capture & Device Control preset that wil consistantly work. The HDV-1080i50 Easy Setup Preset and a few little adjustmentsto the Preset worked for me till i upgraded from 5.1.2 After just getting the camera & the MacBook and having it worka amazingly & now i can't get nothing sure is depressing, i have tried man different ideas i have read over a handful of forums; but still no solution. Thanks.

I am currently running the same exact setup. The key was to make sure the camera was in play/edit, "iLink" showing HDV or DV appropriately, Firewire drive connected (scratch disk), and then starting the computer and finally booting FCP. I couldn't get it to consistently recognize the camera (device control) without this process. It works for me every time.
Thanks!

I have seen similar posts but don't know whether anyone has a solution.

If you are new to FCP X it may be that you are doing something wrong but unless you give precise details of every move we will have no idea what that may be.
