How do I connect an external HD camera to my MacBook Pro?

I have a Sony HD camera using HDMI output, going to a Thunderbolt adapter, into my MacBook Pro.  How do I use my MacBook Pro as an external monitor for the video camera?  When using iMovie, only the MacBook internal camera is available.  When using Final Cut, I don't

  • How do I connect an external video camera to my MacBook Pro.

    Our school has an indoor graduation ceremony and has a live video feed of the proceedings brodcast from the gymnasium to the overflow seating in the auditorium. I want to connect a video camera that has RCA outputs to my MacBook Pro, have the video show on the screen, mirror it to Apple TV in another room of our school and project the picture onto the auditorium's movie screen. I know that I could just hold up an iPad for two hours, but it would be nice to have a better zoom and a smoother pan than a handheld device. Any ideas of what I would need to connect a video camera with RCA outputs to my MacBook Pro?

  • How Can I Connect 2 External Display Monitors to a MacBook Pro? Help

    I want to know if I can (and How to) connect 2 external display monitors to a MacBook Pro... late 2006 & the new Unibody MBP.
    I'll appreciate

    Requires additional hardware - the Matrox DualHead2Go. For the late 2006, you'd need the DualHead2Go Digital Edition, and for the unibody you'd need the DualHead2Go DP Edition, with appropriate cabling (and a DVI-to-VGA adapter for the late 2006 MBP).

  • How do I  connect my digital video camera to my MacBook Pro?

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro and I would like to do some video work.  The only problem is there is nowhere to put my DV cord.  Any ideas?

    Hey mate!
    Odds are you're probably gonna need an Adapter, unless your camera has a USB interface.
    Checkout the Apple Online Store for adapters that you can use.

  • How do i connect a dell monitor u2715h to my macbook pro late 2013?

    How do I connect a Dell monitor U2715H to my MacBook Pro. The only drivers provided are for Windows.

    THanks, James. My daughter suggested I just plug in my new monitor since Macs often don't need as much driver support as Windows machines. Sure enough, that's all I had to do.

  • How do I use an external web cam with my Mac Pro on Skype?

    I am trying to use my MAC Pro with an external web cam (Logitec C615) on Skype. I want to use the external so that I can pan and video a room full of people. Kind of hard to do with the built in cam.
    How do I tell the Mac Pro to use the external for Skype and not the built in?

    Go to Skype preferences, click on audio/video, and choose your camera from the drop down menu...

    i have purchased a bird box with an external USB spy cam. My macbook isn't recognising it. i have downloaded VCR software as recommended by the manufacturer, but it doesnt matter if i open that software or photo booth it only gives the option of the facetime camera.
    i have read on the net about apple having problems with this sort of thing, and maybe about disabling isight but didnt want to download something to disable something which may cause me more problems. Any ideas?

  • How can I split an external monitor's screen on MacBook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro with TWO external monitors.  When maximizing a program on one of the external monitors it expands across BOTH screens. When I do the same thing on my Windows 7 system the program is contained to the monitor it is being displayed on. (Pretty smart of that PC to know which monitor I'm working on!) So HOW can I get the Mac to do the same thing? Is there a 3rd party utility that can identify multiple monitors?  I'm using a Matrix DualHead2Go to connect the two external montors to the Mini-DVI port on the Mac.
    Thanks!!

    I'm using a Matrix DualHead2Go to connect the two external montors to the Mini-DVI port on the Mac
    The behavior you describe in Windows is exactly how much multiple display system works but I have two graphics cards capable of driving two displays each. I believe you have identified the problem in the above sentence. I believe that the Mac sees the Matrix device as a single display and not the two displays themselves. With the two external monitors attached, open System Preferences and select the Displays tab. If the Mac OS sees the displays as two separate displays you should see a dialog in each of the monitors and on your MacBook Pro. If I am correct you won't see three display dialogs, you'll only see two, one on the Mac and one on one of the two external displays.

  • 1. could I connect an external USB3 drive to my macbook pro (15" MID 2010)?

    Trying to connect I can't see it.
    2. Question: Is it mirroring possible with apple TV on MacBook pro 15" MID 2010?. Playing a movie with VLC can I send it to TV?
    Could you please give me an advise?

    1. Of course. Your Mac will not work with the external drive at USB 3.0 speed, but you can use it as a USB 2.0 external drive.
    2. AirPlay Mirroring needs an Early 2011 or newer MacBook Pro > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 As you cannot use AirPlay Mirroring, you can use an application like AirParrot or Beamer

  • Connecting an external audio system to a MacBook Pro...

    I have a Boston Acoustics digital audio system that works fine connected to the audio card on my Windows XP system. I would like to connect it to my MacBook Pro. How can I do this?
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    You're a little light on details there...
    For example, are you trying to replace the Windows machine with the Mac (i.e. use the same inputs on the Boston Acoustics system), or are you trying to add the Mac in addition (i.e. use a new set of inputs).
    Either way you need to look at what inputs you have available - e.g. RCA, toslink, SPDI/F, etc. - that will tell you what you need on the audio system side and you can then find the right option from the Mac.
    The simplest option that most people use is just to use a simple audio cable from the headphone jack on the MacBook Pro and plug that into the audio inputs on the receiver. This is simple, adequate for most purposes, but it takes all the audio (including things like system audio) and disables the internal speakers.
    For a step up in quality, the MacBook Pro has a digital audio output as well (built into the headphone socket) for which you'll need a special cable (search the Apple Store for the AirPort Express Stereo Connection kit).
    If neither of those options fit then there are numerous USB and FireWire audio interfaces that can provide any number of outputs. Which one's right for you, though, depends on those inputs on the receiver.

  • How can i connect my IMessage into the Mountain Lion (MacBook Pro)

    I'm trying to enable receving my Imeesages in my MacBook Pro but I don't know how, Wish someone can help me.

    Open Messages from the applications folder, the Lauchpad, or your dock if it's setup there.  Go to Messages, Prefereces ..... and select accounts.  Your Apple ID should be already setup.  If it's not you can add it.  If you use more than one ID and it's the wrong one, you can delete the account from messages by going to Account Details and Sign Out.  Then, add the Apple ID you want to use.
    It appears that the syncing with iPhones is only working if you use your Apple ID email as the "Caller ID" on the iPhone and that the sync up with your phone number may not be happening until iOS 6 comes out this fall.  I'm not sure though.  I just know that mine isn't syncing with messages sent to my phone number and from other posts, it appears that other people are having the same issue.
    I hope that helps get you going.

  • I need help on how to properly use my external hard drive on the macbook pro

    Whenever I try to store some files (e.g. images)
    The image I've copied and pasted into the external hard drive disappears or gets deleted as well when I delete the original image from the internal hard drive, why is that?
    Is it because it was just a copy of the original image that if you delete the original image the copied image in the external hard drive will get deleted as well?
    So does that mean I have to put the original image in the drive or will that get lost too?
    Sorry for the multiple questions,
    I'm just struggling with my new external hard drive.
    Model of the external hard drive: Seagate Backup plus slim portable drive 1 tb

    What are you trying to accomplish here?  Time Machine is used for backing up files on a regular basis but you don't have to use it.  You're getting ahead of things.  Have you managed to drag a file from your main drive to the new one successfully?

  • How do I connect a HP Photosmart 7520 to my MacBook Pro?

    Having an issue connecting my wireless HP Photosmart 7520 to my Macbook. Anyone have any advice?

    I have installed software similar to what I've been using for years to communicate with the same device hooked up on PCs. Even through that software I get the message that I can only connect with bluetooth, PDA, modem ect.
    Is there some generic software or specific to the device you refer to? I've also installed this device on Mac's in the past, through the same software.
