FMLE not Recognising Firewire Device

Hi,
I am trying to get my Canon XH A1 to connect to the Flash Media Live Encoder usinig Firewire 800. When I launch FMLE, i get an error saying 'no video capture device detected. Please check if your video devices are connected properly and not used by another application'.
I have tested the firewire connection. Its working fine, i can see my camera output in various applcations that i've tested. Can anyone tell me if there is a setting somewhere that I need to set the capture feed to Firewire? I can't see anything in the help files.
Its a Mac with OSX 10.6.4 that i'm running.
Thanks,
Steven.

I had the same issue not that long ago. For me it turned out that the pins in the FW port on my camera were a little out of line. I had never used the DV port on the camera so I ruled it out, but after exhausting everything else I looked at them and it was almost obvious. So, I say check that first! If I knew how I would put the link here to the other thread on my issue. Many people posted things to help track down the problem. Look in the iMovie HD forum for stuff.

  • FCP does not recognise firewire device

    Hi
    I'm using Final Cut Pro HD 4.5 and it won't properly recognise external devices through firewire. On log and capture it will control the device (play/forward etc) but no preview is available in log and capture window.
    In Video Playback Settings within Audio/Video Settings it at first said (Missing Apple Firewire PAL), but now it won't even see that. I have tried Refresh A/V Devices to no effect, I have also tried 2 different devices (DV deck and camcorder) and different firewire ports on the computer, all to no effect.
    I have exactly the same external set-up (in fact the devices are shared between them) on a old G4 and that works without problem.
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks
    Ben

    Hi, I am using FCP 6.0.4 and am having the same problem as you had but I'm not even able to see anything in preview or control it (reads no communication). Did you find a solution that may help me?
    Thank you and hope you're back on track!

  • My macbook will not recognise USB devices, Help!

    My macbook pro with OS Yosemite will not recognise USB devices such as tom toms, digital voice recorders or cameras.  I find this frustrating as I can not update or download to my macbook.  Any ideas on what I can do? 

    Have you checked the settings in FINDER PREFERENCES?
    Have you checked with the respective vendors to determine compatibility with your MBP?
    Ciao.

    I have now lost my contacts icon on the iphone and cannot find it even after syncing to my computer.
    Would you know how to resolve this issue?
    It's a pre-installed app and therefore cannot be deleted so you may have inadvertently moved it onto a screen or into a folder, check the utilities folder as this is a common one for it to disappear into.  Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the app it still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where it is. If you find it on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it.  Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • TS3694 I installed itunes onto my desktop but it would not recognise my device & eventually crashed the desktop. I tried my laptop & I got the 3014 error but the ipod has crashed and only shows a USB pic & itunes logo.

    Hi, I opened my new ipod 4th generation and had a play with it to initially find & install the amazon audible which I had been told was easy. Anyway I did it so I thought I would have a play with itunes. It regognized all my tracks and I managed to buy an album which I could not find in 'music'. I had to play each tarck, one at at time while they were recognised in history.
    While on my laptop I tried to install my tracks but nothing happaened. I was asked to update which I did & then my ipod locked. I've turned it off but when I switch it back on iget a picture of a USB cable pointing to itunes. Logically I thought thaht meant connect to itunes, itunes woud not recognise it and gave a 3014 error.
    I have a brand new ipod that is useless, i Feel useless like I am doing somthing wrong. Strange thing is I upgraded from a Philipps GoGear Connect which has bad reviews but at least I could listen to my music, play games and use audible.
    Has anyone got any ideas. It was purchased through Amazon/

  • 13" MacBook Pro 2012 Not Recognising USB Devices on OSX 10.9.1

    Hello,
    Since updating to OSX 10.9.1, one of the USB ports of my MacBook is not always recognising devices (external HDDs and Logitech Unifying Receiver), often when the other port is used.
    It is the port on the right. First I noticed this problem with the Logitech Unifying Receiver, I thought perhaps it is because of the driver, but today I had to plug in my external HDD several times to get recognised and mounted. When not recognised, the Logitech Unifying receiver is not even listed in System Information, and HDDs are not listed in Disk Utility.
    I had no issue with using both USB ports prior to OSX 10.9.1.
    Anyone else is facing this problem?
    Thank you.

    Hi AMDeeb,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If USB devices are not being recognized reliably by your MacBook Pro, start with resetting the NVRAM:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R.
    You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    You can find more information about this troubleshooting step here:
