Getting video from DVR to MacBook Pro

How do I get video from a DVR (Dish Network 625) to my MacBook Pro?

On my Sony DVDR/Set top box (RDR-HXD760) I have to
copy the movie from the hard drive to a disc, then
transfer the disc to the MacBook Pro and copy it from
there. I've not found a way to mount the internal
drive directly.
Thanks very much. This helps a little. I'd still like to know if there's a way to make a direct feed from this DVR to the MacBook Pro.

Transfer video from ipad2 to macbook pro?

Is there a way to transfer video from ipad2 to macbook pro? I took some videos and would like to transfer it so I can edit it on imovie. I'm surprised that iphoto doesn't recognize videos to transfer from ipad2 to macbook pro. It seems like it only does it for photos. Videos should be included.

Reading your question, I made a short video on my iPad 2. It showed up in the Photos camera roll.
Running iPhoto and connecting the iPad to my Mac Pro, I selected the iPad under DEVICES. The video was at the end of the photos, I selected it and clicked on "Import Selected". I then dragged the imported video to my desktop and it played in QuickTime Player when I double-clicked it.
Then I tried it with Aperture. The dragged copy appeared to play in QuickTime Player, but the screen was black. However an Exported Version played correctly.

How do I transfer content from DVR to Macbook Pro via Firewire?

I need help. I want to transfer my recorded shows off of my Comcast Motorolo DVR to my Macbook Pro, Version 10.9.1. I've done some youtube searches and the ones that I find say I need AVCVideocapand that I can get it from downloading Firewire SDK 2.6. So I downloaded firewire SDK 2.6 and when I try to open it I get an error saying it can't be open because it's from an unknow developer. So then I downloaded the lastest XCode software but still no AVCVideocap. I have the 9 pin plug of firewire plugged into the back of my DVR and the othere end of firewire, 6pin, connected to my Mac. Should I be seeing anything on my desktop, like new device or something? Please help. Thanks in advance, Joey

To run the installer, press the Control key and click the installer, and choose Open.
A different way would be to open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, press the padlock at the bottom left corner of the System Preferences window, and select "Anywhere" under "Allow applications downloaded from". Finally, run the installer.

Transferred a video from phone to macbook pro but sound is not working.

I transferred a video from my phone to my macbook pro. the transfer was successful but the sound is not working on the computer, totally mute. the video is playing on quicktime player. the computer sound is on. the video was working fine on the phone and when i transferred the video, if this makes any difference or anything, the phone's media volume was on full.
I very much appreciate the help and feed back, thank you!

I have this same issue and have been struggling with it for a while. I really just need to get it into Apple Store to be fixed most likely - but avoiding the hassle and time needed to do so.
Things I've come across:
Something inside of the headphone jack is not right, such that it randomly thinks headphones or some other type of optical audio device are plugged in. you will see a red light inside the jack occasionally when it happens.
You might try doing PRAM and/or SMC reset ( http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 )

Transferring video from Ipad2 to Macbook Pro

Hello, let me first explain my situation before getting into my question. I work for a school that has recently purchased ipads for the classrooms as well as macbook pros. I'm attempting to transfer video take from an ipad2 on to one of the macbooks and have been unable to. I've used iPhoto, as suggested by several treads. When I plug the Ipad into the macbook, iPhoto recognizes the Ipad, but shows the ipad as having zero photos or videos to import. I'm I missing something? Is there another way to get the videos over to the macbook?
Thanks

Generally speaking, you can only import Videos that are in the camera roll album in the photos app on the iPad using iPhoto. Is this video in the camera roll?
It sounds like it is if you took the video with the iPad camera. Try starting all over again, quit iPhoto, restart the Mac and restart the iPad. It might not hurt to quit the photos app completely either before you restart the iPad. Double tap the home button, find the Photos app icon, tap and hold down until it wiggles, tap the red minus sign to quit the app. Tap the home button and then restart.
BTW ... Have you tried Image Capture on the Mac?

How do I transfer video from my iPad to my MacBook Pro?

Hi MeSwolf,
You can do it wirelessly with Dropbox. The Dropbox app has a very cool auto-upload process that will automatically upload photos and videos from the iPad Camera Roll to Dropbox.
First sign up for a free Dropbox account from your computer.
Then, download the free Dropbox app on your iPad.
Log in to the Dropbox app on the iPad with your new account and click on the Photos icon in the lower left corner of the screen (second one from the left).
Select "Enable Camera Upload" and "Only Wi-Fi." The upload process will begin for all existing photos and videos in the Camera Roll.
From now on, all future photos and videos taken by the iPad will automatically upload to the Dropbox folder. You can then download your photos from Dropbox to your computer by going tohttp://www.dropbox.com, logging in to your account, and downloading the photos and videos.
Hope this helps!

Hi how do i get video to show on macbook pro i only have audio playing

how do
get video to show i only have audio playing on macbook pro

You are going to have to give us a lot more information than that. We need to know what MacBook Pro you have. What version of OSX (these things should be in your profile). What are you trying to do. What program. What kind of video. We are completely incapable of guessing what's going on, so if you want an answer, you need to give us information.

How can I stream video from a 2006 MacBook Pro (1,1)

I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo from ~2006 (version 1,1) and I'm trying to figure out how to stream video to my TV. Is there a solution via Apple TV?

Hey rattlesnake,
Thanks for the question. I see that you are running Mac OS X 10.6.8, which is compatible with the latest version of iTunes (11.1.2):
Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Once you have installed the latest version of iTunes, you can utilize AirPlay from iTunes to an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation):
iTunes: Using AirPlay
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5922
To stream music or videos from your computer to an Apple TV or AirPort Express:
1. Connect your computer and Apple TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
2. Open iTunes.
3. Locate and click the icon to the left of the iTunes LCD window.
4. Select your Apple TV, AirPort Express, or AirPlay-enabled speakers or receivers from the list of available devices that appears and begin playback.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Need Help Transfering Video From HV20 to Macbook Pro

I've lloked everywhere and I can't find the process to transfer my video from my HV20 to my Macbook Pro.
Can some one please point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have the necessary firewire cable? USB will not capture your video to your Mac. With that, it's a simple matter of hooking the cam up to the Mac, with cam off, Mac on. Open iMovie and have your cam set on playback. Then turn on the cam and your Mac should present you with the import button.

Transfer MMS-Videos from iPhone to macbook pro

Hello Together,
does anyone know if it's possible to transfer videos, revieved over mms to the computer? How does it work?
Thanks for your help!
Greetz,
Mark

I have same question.
3GS. Up to date software. Not jailbroken.
I receive MMS videos from friends (who do not have iphone), and while I can play them and "tap to save" to photo roll (and play them from there also), they are not showing up in iphoto when I connect my iphone. Although videos I take DO show up. Image Capture is the same. It is like my macbook thinks the video doesn't exist.
I ended up emailing the MMS Video to myself (so I could save it) and it is a .3gp video file. It played fine from my email to myself (and I can import it from my email to iphoto and it recognizes it and plays it in quicktime). But would this video filetype prevent it from being recognized by iphoto? It recognizes everything else in my photo roll and can import photos and other videos (ones I took) just fine.
Thoughts?

Can't Open Videos From Camcorder on Macbook Pro

I recently moved several videos from my camcorder to my desktop. The file extension is .MOD and I can't figure out how to open them on my laptop. I had no problem opening and viewing them on my HP desktop but am having no success on my Mac. I am fairly new to Macs so this could be a very basic fix that I'm not aware of. Any directions/suggestions woudl be appreciated.

Hi Katherine,
You'll need to save it to a different format to use it on a Mac. If you can still open them on the HP, that would probably be the easiest. Save them as a Mac compatible format such as .mpg. If that doesn't work, here is a converter you can try: http://www.squared5.com/

HT1277 why can't i get mail from iCloud on macbook pro 2011?

When I click mail on system preferences (mail & notes) it starts then unchecks. This happens in both mail settings when I try to set up new account and in iCloud

Hi, do you have old settings from MobileMe or dot Mac maybe?
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
          •          Server name: imap.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 993
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
          •          Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
          •          SSL Required: Yes
          •          Port: 587
          •          SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
          •          Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
          •          Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
Thanks to dpepper...

I downloaded a web site isytd video downloader on my macbook pro, to download videos. but it didnt work , so I removed the softwear from my mac, even I removed it the download sign appears on the left top of my video screen, so I want to remove this

I downloaded a web site isytd video downloader on my macbook pro, to download videos. but it didnt work , so I removed the softwear from my mac, even I removed it the download sign appears on the left top of my video screen, so I want to remove this download sign. How can I get this done? Please help me.

Many apps are not completely removed if the .app file is trashed (which is what I believe you've done so far).
If you don't want to dig through the system to manually remove library files, I recommend the use of AppCleaner, which does the job for you.
