  • FMLE is not recognizing my camera.

    I'm using a Sony HDR-CX160 with an iGrabber connected via USB.  FMLE is not recognizing the camera.  Any suggestions?

    It's not that FMLE is not recognizing your camera.... FMLE is not recognizing your capture device (the iGrabber). 
    Just because a capture device can capture video as a file onto your computer doesn't mean that the device is made to deliver throughput video as a "live camera" source.  There is a big difference between recording to a file, and passing video through as a source.
    An inexpensive caputre device that FMLE can see is the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum HD.  If you have a FireWire connection on your computer I would strongly suggest using the Canopus ADVC110 capture device (works like a champ -- no issues or errors).
    If you change your capture device out to one that allows other software (like FMLE, XSplit, Wirecast, etc.) to see the video as a "source" then you'll be in luck.  iGrabber simply does not have that capability.  This isn't the fault of Adobe, it simply wasn't designed by iGrabber to be used in this manner.

  • No luck importing from SonyHandycam DCR-DVD650?  I am using USB import to my MacBook that is running OSX 10.6.8. The MacBook is not recognizing the camera.  Any ideas what the issue could be?

    I am not having any success in importing my videos from Sony Handycam DCR-DVD 650 to my mac book.  I am using the USB connection.  The macbook is not recognizing the camera.  The macbook is running OSX 10.6.8.  Any ideas on what the problem could be?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2361 There's a recommendation that when using this camera to record in the 'Standard' format instead of VR format. So if you know what the setting was you used to record the disk that's a starting point.
    According to this website the camera should be compatible with iMovie '11
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras/en/index.html?lang=en_US
    So here's some steps to take to get the Mac to recognize your camera.
    1. Try it more than a few times, sometimes it can take 2-4 attempts to get iMovie to recognize a camera for the first time.
    2. Always get the power adapter for your camera out of the bag. Hook it to the wall outlet, then plug your camera into that. Don't run it off the battery.
    3. With the camera plugged into the wall, in DV playback mode. Hit play and just let it play video out continuously, then reboot the Mac. As soon as you see the desktop, launch iMovie. Go to File Menu > Import from Camera and see if the Capture window opens with your video playing through.
    4. Make sure iPhoto doesn't try to launch itself automatically when it detects your camera has been connected to the Mac. Sometimes it tries to steal the videos off of a camera and 'blocks' iMovie from seeing the camera when it's attached. So make sure iPhoto hasn't interecepted your camera and is not running at all when you launch iMovie
    No guarantees, but some things to try

  • GOES Utility not recognizing 60D camera

    Does anyone have any idea why the EOS Utility is not recognizing the camera when connected to PC. All functionality are greyed out.

    Hello E092176,
    We are glad to assist you with downloading images from your camera to the computer using EOS Utility.  Windows XP is used as an example, but the procedures are mostly the same if you use Windows Vista,or Mac OS X.
    Connect the camera to the computer with the USB cable supplied with the camera.
    - Set the camera's Auto Power Off settings to [Off] before making the connection.
    - Please see the related information for how to connect a camera to a computer.
    Set the camera's power switch to <ON>.
    EOS Utility starts automatically.
    - If EOS Utility does not start automatically, click the [Start] button, then select [All Programs] , [Canon Utilities] , [EOS Utility] and then [EOS Utility].
    - If you use Mac OS X, click the [EOS Utility] icon registered in the Dock. When the [Welcome to iPhoto!] dialog box appears, click the [Decide Later] button. If the iPhoto starts at this time, quit iPhoto.
    - If a screen for selecting the program (application) appears, select [Canon EOS Utility] and then click [OK].
    [start the operation for downloading images.]
    - To download all images saved in the memory card, click [Starts to download images] in the EOS Utility window.
    - By default, the downloaded images are sorted into folders by their shooting date, and are saved in the [My Pictures] folder on the computer. If you wish to change the destination for the downloaded images, click [Preferences] and specify the settings in the dialog box.
    - If you click [Lets you select and download images], the images saved in the memory card will be displayed in the EOS Utility window so that you can select the images to be downloaded. For the details, please see the "Downloading selected images" section below.

  • Powerbook G4 is not recognizing external HD

    Hi. My computer is dying. I can feel it. It's doing all these weird things it never used to do, like suddenly lapse in to a grey screen where I can do nothing but restart it in order to get it working again. I have about 60 gigs worth of music and pictures that I absolutely must back up. The problem is, some time in the last 6 - 8 months, my computer suddenly stopped recognizing external HD devices. I've tried it with three separate devices now. The first two were loaners but this last one I bought. I know I meet the system requirements, and I can't think of any reason why this would be happening. I've tried 3 different devices, which rules out the problem lying with the devices. My computer used to recognize external HD's just fine. I have no idea why it stopped.
    Two things worth mentioning: My battery is dead. Someone stole my battery and replaced it with a dead one, so my laptop is no longer portable. But it shouldn't be an issue of the device not receiving enough power because the computer is plugged in.
    The light on the device is not a solid green; it's blinking with orange, and the device keeps making a faint clicking sound.
    Any help would be much appreciated. If I can't figure out the problem here I'm going to have to take my computer to the apple store and that's always a hassle.
    Thanks

    Oh my ....
    First, if you have the original OS X disks that came with the system, insert the first one (should say in small print on the label 'AHT Version x.x'), reboot, holding the alt/option key down, and choose the Apple hardware test, and when prompted, choose the extended test. If you have either of the TechTool programs, they can do similar testing. Does that point out any hardware issues?
    Faint clicking normally suggests a hard drive about to die. You could always download Smart Utility from http://www.volitans-software.com/smart_utility.phps to get a readout of your SMART sensors. If you're hard drive is 3-5 years old, it may be on it's way out, and causing issues.
    Have you reset the PMU? And while you're at it, might as well reset the PRAM. PMU reset is: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1431 and PRAM reset is:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    3. Turn on the computer.
    4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    6. Release the keys.
    After that, what the status?

  • Cannon EOS 40D and a MacBook Pro OS X Yosemite.My Mac is not recognizing my camera anymore

    My Mac recognized the camera last night and imported the pictures I took. This morning, I cannot upload new photos. (I did drop my camera, but it works fine -THANKFULLY - so I am not sure why that would make a difference). My Mac is not even recognizing that the camera is plugged into it. I went into ulitities and my camera is not showing under the USB when it is plugged in. I have put in a new battery in my camera and rebooted my Mac and nothing is working. I appreciate any idea you have on how to fix this!  

    The cameras are fairly rugged and can take a few knocks (they're not that fragile)... but obviously there are limits.  So if the knock or drop was hard enough, I suppose it's possible that you've damaged the camera.  Does the body show signs of physical damage (did it fall hard enough to damage the body?) If you are using the Mac's "System Information" utility to check the devices connected via USB then it is important that you connect the camera BEFORE you start the "System Information" utility. This is because that utility only scans the connected devices when it is started and does not re-scan if devices are connected after starting.   There is a menu option under "File" -> "Refresh Information" (or press Command+R) to refresh if the camera was connected after starting. If the utility does not show the device then something is wrong with the connection (e.g. loose or bad cable, bad port, bad hub etc.).  I have gone through a number of external USB hubs with my own Macs.  It took a while before I finally found a hub that worked reliably.  I would frequently have devices that would show up in the device list when DIRECTLY connected to my Mac, but would NOT show up if connected to a hub (even "powered" hubs).  For this reason, if you are having any connectivity issues, please make sure that you are connected the camera directly to the computer. Remember, there are no drivers needed for the device to show up -- so if it doesn't show up it is not a software problem. As a backup plan, it is possible to directly import the images from the computer into the computer without using the camera.  I think the 40D uses Compact Flash, but you can get an inexpensive Compact Flash reader (I have a Lexar USB 3.0 reader that has both a CF card slot as well as an SD card slot.)  This is actually my preferred method to perform imports because direct reading from the card is faster than transfering via the camera's USB connection.

  • Time Machine not recognizing external hard disk

    I am trying to set up backups via Time Machine on my external hard drive but as I go through the process the my hard drive is not recognized in the dropdown menu. It the external hard drive is recognized in the Finder but not by Time Machine. What gives?

    do you know how the disk is formatted? it may be in a format that time machine does not support, but which the finder can see. just like this guy:

  • Usb port not recognizing external drive

    When I plug my external backup drive, Lacie, into either USB ports on my MacBook Pro, it is not recognizing the drive. Not sure if I powered down incorrectly. It use to recognize it. Help.

    Start by looking for the drive in the Apple System Profiler (from the Apple menu's far left Apple logo>About This Mac>More Info>Hardware (in left column) >USB.) If the drive is correctly powered and connected, it will show up here.
    If it doesn't show up, the problem is with the drive. With the drive plugged in, put your ear to the drive and listen for the whirring sound the drive makes when it is powered up. If it isn't making any sound, ot's either a bad drive or a bad power supply.
    If the drive is making sound , then the problem is probably the USB cable or your USB port. Try a different USB cable. This should fix the problem; if all the above tests were good and the drive still doesn't mount, it may be the USB controller in the Mac. That's a serious problem that requires repair or installation of an aftermarket USB controller.
    Hope this helps

  • Mac is not recognizing my camera AGAIN

    Can someone, PLEASE, give me an answer?
    Image Capture, iPhoto and Aperture stopped recognizing my camera. The camera blinks while connected as always, I can see it in the System Profiler. In About This Mac, under the USB section, I can see that Canon Digital Camera is showing.
    The curious thing is that when I turn off my camera, then quickly turn in on I can see it flashing in Image Capture for like 1 second and then "no camera connected" appears again.
    What could cause this problem? I once had the same problem, formatting my camera solved it, but this time I tried it a few times and it didn't work.

    "when I turn off my camera, then quickly turn in on I can see it flashing in Image
    Capture for like 1 second and then "no camera connected" appears"
    Once ejected, a disk/camera has to be replugged in.
    But this doesn't seem to be the problem. When connected properly
    the cam is showing up in Finder and ATMac. I believe the three
    apps aren't seeing your pics because possibly the correct camera
    storage setting may not be selected in the Finder - although device
    itself is connected and present. When my camera connects to the
    Mac I always need to select one of several options - I select DCIM
    and that turns out to be my pics. Good luck.

  • Iphoto and image capture not recognizing kodak camera

    Hello!
    I am having trouble uploading photos from my Kodak easyshare dx4530 to iphoto 6.0.5. This is a new thing as I have uploaded many times before. The camera is not recognized by iphoto or by image capture when the usb is connected. The camera and usb work fine when connected to my husband's ibook G4.
    I tried moving the preferences to the trash (com.apple.iphoto.plist and com.apple.imagecaptureapp.plist) and this did not work. There is only 1 account on the computer and it is the admin account.
    Thanks in advance for any help offered.

    pb35:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Is the camera recognized by System Profiler? Did you run any updates before this problem began? A first cut would be a reinstall of the 10.4.9 COMBO updater followed by a permissions repair.
    I'd create a second, non-admin, very vanilla account and see if the camera is recognized there by iPhoto or IC. A second plain account is a very good troubleshooting tool to see if the problem is with what's been added to the primary account.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Live media encoder not recognizing my camera

    I am working on a MacBook Pro with a Sony PMW-EX3 HD camera connected through iLink with a Firewire 800.  My iMovie recognizes the camera, so I know it is not the computer.  However, in Live Media Encoder 3,1, I am not allowed to choose my Sony camera for input.  It is like Live Media Encoder does not recognize the camera.
    Any ideas?

    I'm sure you checked this but just in case...
    Is the camera on or in the mode to output to firewire when you have it connected to FMLE?  I also have experienced devices not showing up when connected when the device is not on or sending out a picture.  They also don't show up usually when you connect it or turn it on when FMLE is already running (which can be fixed by closing it and restarting the program).
