    Hi Tom,

  • How do I get my mac to recognize my digital videa camera?

    Indeed I used a USB cable to connect the two but nothing happen,imovie doesn't recognize it but when I put my video camera on camera mode(pic mode) iphoto does,I have a canon dv.
    How can I do that?Mac is supposed to transfer it automatically,with the STP!
    Please help!!

    DV cameras require a firewire cable to transfer video.
    The USB in your case is only seeing stills on the camera which is the usual way to import them.

  • How do I get my Mac to recognize my older Clickfree HD225 backup?

    Greetings.  I am having difficulties getting my older Clickfree HD225 backup to work on my Mac.  I am a recent convert to Mac from an older Dell.  I purchased my Clickfree device in August 2009.  According to Clickfree themselves, it should work on a Mac or a PC, but not both.  Serial number of my Clickfree device confirms this statement.  I hooked it up to my old PC and deleted all the old information off the device.  Hooked it up to my Mac and it did recognize it, and it comes up with this statement:
    Welcome to Clickfree Backup
    This Clickfree device is formatted for Microsoft Windows.  Please select one of the options below:
    "Make my device work on Mac (format HFS)
    So I click on that option and it appears to be doing something, but then the same box appears again.  So I click on it again and the same things happens, and so on, and so on.  It just doesn't seem to want to go to next step or format the device for the Mac.  Can anyone out there lend me some advise?  Can this work?  Or is it just a lost cause?  Thank you all for your time and assistance.

    I guess you could try to erase and format it using Disk Utility (assuming it is seen)
    Go to Applications>Utilities>DiskUtility, if the ClickFree shows in the sidebar, select it and choose erase from the tabs on the right side, choose Mac OSX Extended (Journaled) as the format and click erase. Then see if it works.

  • How can I get my mac to recognize my ethernet port?

    When I try to directly connect to my router I cannot and the error is cable unplugged, when it is not and I plug the same cable connected to my router into my laptop (windows) right next to my iMac and it works fine so I know it is not an issue with the router or cable.  Is there a way to fix this?
    Thanks,

    Hi Cindy, first try a different Ethernet cable, despite the fact it works with another computer. Your Windows computer may have a slower port that works with that cable whereas your iMac might need a better cable.
    If it still does not work try this:
    Go to  menu > System Preferences and select Network. On the left column select Ethernet, then click the Advanced button.
    Select the Hardware tab and on the dropdown menu next to "Configure" change it to "Manually". Make the rest look like this:
    Click OK, then Apply.
    If this still results in "cable unplugged" it almost always means your iMac's Ethernet port is NG.

  • How do you get the iMac to recognize the keyboard?

    Hi guys, I received a used iMac and never really used one before. I am not sure what the model is, from the pictures on wiki it could be iMac G5 or after that.
    I have a problem, does the keyboard (and mouse) need something to work with the iMac? Some receptor hooked on it? Because they are working, the green light goes on, but they are not being reconized by the mac. I attached a normal mouse via USB and this one works.
    Also, is there like a "windows explorer" so I can see what files are on the mac now and what letter the external drive I wanna hook up will be assigned? Thanks .))

    How can I get my mac book pro to recognize a JVC camcorder using a Sony CAMERA USB cord??

    Gotta say thank you — again.  Sorry the posts were spread out over more than one location.    I'll check and see if Third Party Software is considered a "peripheral", maybe that would have been a better single thread choice?
    Definitely news we can use and the reference link is appreciated.
    OT ~ We keep becoming more and more aware of how easy it is to lose one's bearings when it comes to keeping up with info tech.  My husband and I are both official members of the geezer set and have been out of the work force for some years.  You really do pick up so much just by being in the environment where people are using things to get work done.  A couple of old MP3 players, PPC G5, and a vintage Inspiron 3800 that someone didn't want any more is about it.  No cell phone, no iPod, no iPad, no home wireless network, no streaming media.  Fixed income.  So we do with what we can as long as we can.  If we could get by without that Intel processor, we'd probably make do with what we've got.  On the other hand, we've really wanted a notebook for a very long time and have to admit that needing to upgrade to accomodate my husband's project is pretty much just the "reason" we need.  I really mean it when I say that we are beyond appreciative that users take the time to share info and patiently educate those of us who fall into the "slow tech" category. 

  • How can I get Log Express to recognize my external keyboard? - NEWBIE

    I'm using a Lexicon Lambda phantom powered converter (I think that's what it's called) to run my Left and Right 1/4" cables to, from my Kurweil master out. Then the USB cable from the Lexicon out, to the Mac. How do I get Logic Express to recognize the Kurzweil so I can record the Kurzweil's on-board sounds rather than using it as a Midi controller?
    Very new to Logic and all of this-any help is appreciated in layman's terms.

    OK - got logic to recognize the Kurzweil keyboard on a new track, I can hear the on-board Kurzweil piano sounds, but Logic is not recording it. what gives?

  • How do I get Application Manager to recognize that Photoshop is not installed?

    Application Manager says that Photoshop CS6 is installed. It isn't. I've rebooted the Mac and it still says it's installed.  What installed was a partial or corrupt file which I have trashed. How do I get Application Manager to recognize that Photoshop is not installed so I can download and install it again?  Thanks.

    Do you have an uninstaller available to you in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder?  If so then please run the uninstaller.
    If you don't then please utilize the uninstallers available in this folder to remove all currently installed Adobe Creative Software.  You will then want to follow this by running the CS Cleaner tool.  You can find details on the use of the CS Cleaner tool at CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • How do I get Image Capture to recognize a printer on my network?

    I just got a new MacBook Pro. I have my epson printer on my network. How do I get Image Capture to recognize that I have a printer. Nothing comes up on devices. I'm sort of stabbing in the dark at network settings and I downloaded the latest Epson driver. Nothing seems to work. Can anyone help? Suz

    In Image Capture, a network printer / scanner will appear under "Shared". If it is hidden, a number will appear adjacent to it, representing the number of hidden devices.
    If it still does not appear, try resetting the printing system: Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
    After you do that you will need to add the device again according to the instructions here:
    OS X Mavericks: Set up a printer
    Follow the instructions below Add a network printer
