How do I import video from Canon Legria HF20 to iPad 2?

I have the camera connection kit, and iMovie App. The kit will import photos, but the iPad does not react at all when trying to send video files to iPad 2.
Is there a utility App for iPad that will make the file format recognisable? Or is it possible to save the camera files in a format recognised by the iPad.

Freezeframe-
Either a Thumb Drive or an SD card in the Camera Connection Kit adapter should work. However SFX is not a file type I'm familiar with.
How about [Volume name]\DCIS\[filename].[mp4]? The file name must be 8 characters plus suffix. It needs to look like it would if it had been recorded in the camera.
If that doesn't work, perhaps adding another folder will help. A card from a Canon camera has another folder named "102___12". That would make the path [Volume name]\DCIS\102___12\[filename].[mp4].
The more common way to transfer videos to the iPad is using iTunes that had previously synced with it. Select Movies under LIBRARY on the left side of the iTunes window. Then you should be able to drag the video file into that window. The video will be transfered the next time you sync. This way, the file name is not critical, as long as it has the correct suffix.

Help needed: How to import video from Canon Legria Camcorder FS306?

Dear all,
After happily purchasing Canon Legria Camcorder FS306, I realise that my IMOVIE HD could not detect the camcorder when connected to my Macbook pro.
Have 2 questions here:
1. Is it impossible for IMovie HD to detect newer camcorders? Should I then upgrade to IMOVIE09?
2. Currently, Canon Legria Camcorder FS306 is not listed as 1 of the supported camcorders for IMOVIE09. It is one of the newer models. Is IMOVIE09 able to import video from this camcorder now? Or in the near future? Or it may never be supported?
Tks!
Gam

You would need imovie 09 to use this camcorder.
This camcorder is not on the iMovie 09 supported list. However, every Canon camcorder since 2008 has supported iMovie 08 and 09, so odds are good that this one will, too. Odds are good that it works right now. IF you want to know for sure, call Canon. ....or take your camera to an Apple Store and hook it up.
It might be possible to do some manual conversions and continue to use iMovie 6. For example, you could try converting the MPEG2 files to DV using a tool like MPEG Streamclip. You would also need the $20 Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component. I find iMovie 09 to be a much better editor, but if you are comfortable with iMovie 06, this might be worth a try for you.

Import video from CANON LEGRIA HF R18 into adobe premiere elements

Hallo,
I have a MAC and I don't know how I have to set the project to import videos from my camera.
Thanks

As a first pass at this I would transfer the video from the camera to the computer hard drive and from there import that into Premiere Elements 10 Mac with Premiere Elements 10 Mac Get Media/Files and Folder. Under the circumstances your Premiere Elements 10 will perform as a 32 bit application running in the 32 bit compatibility mode of the Mac 64 bit with the limitations of 32 bit. I am an Elements Windows user, but the principles and suggestions that I am about to make should be applicable to your situation. I have gone off track with any Mac specific details be sure to say so. The 32 bit business means that Premiere Elements 10 Mac will not be able to take advantage of all the 64 bit resources as would be the case if you had Premiere Elements 11 Mac running in a Mac 64 bit operating system.
Your Canon HF-R18 FXP would be highest quality 1920 x 1080 with a bitrate of 17 Mbps (megabits per second). I need to confirm if you are recording interlaced video 1920 x 1080 (50i) or 1920 x 1080 p25 (in the progressive mode). From what I have read your audio is Dolby Digital Stereo.
If 1920 x 1080 (50i, aka 25 interlaced frames per second), then use the Premiere Elements 10 project preset = PAL/AVCHD/Full HD1080i25.
If 1920 x 1080 (25p, 25 progressive frames per second), then use the Premiere Elements 10 project preset = PAL/DSLR/1080p/DSLR 1080p25.
In either circumstance, when you drag the file from the Media area to the Timeline, do you see a colored line over that content on the Timeline? You should not be seeing a colored line over this content if we have the correct project preset selected. But remember that, each time after you edit that video, it is normal for a red line to appear over it. That is the program telling you that you need to render the Timeline content, one way by pressing the Enter key of the computer main keyboard to get the best possible preview. When the rendering is complete, the red line will turn green. Thereafter, only a red/green indicator system (with all its implications) will exist for letting you know if the program thinks that you are seeing the best possible preview. No more non colored line choice, just red (need) and green (not needed). When you are in the no colored line or green situation, pressing the Enter key will just get you playback of the file in the monitor - no rendering available.
See what that looks like on the Timeline at playback there.
Let us start there and be ready for the next phase "How do I want to export that Timeline?" with all the details associated with that phase to get the best results.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

How do I import video from canon zr 500 to iMovie 2011?

Hello,
Thank you in advance for your help.

Does anyone have any advice or suggestions as to how I could accomplish this as cheaply as possible? I am new to using a Mac so please don't be too technical in explanations.
Thank you,

How do I import video from my canon vixia hv40 into imovie?

How do I import video from my canon vixia hv 40 into imovie?

First decide which editing program you intend to use; iMovie, FCE, FCP, Adobe Premier, etc. Read the user's manual or Help files for your chosen application to determine the steps needed: the procedure will vary somewhat from application to application.
Next, with the camera and the computer off, connect the Firewire cable to both units, then power up. Set the camera to VTR (play) mode. Open your editing program and follow the instructions provided in the Help files for capturing DV footage from tape.
Do NOT expect the camera to mount on your desktop as if it were a hard drive or optical disc.

How do I import video from my new Canon FX300?

How do I import video from my Canon FX300 into FCP?

It's probably got no connection with your problem but just to rule it out, trash your preferences . . . it'll only take a minute so you've nothing to lose.
Many weird things happen as a result of corrupt preferences which can create a vast range of different symptoms, so whenever FCP X stops working properly in any way, trashing the preferences should be the first thing you do using this free app.
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
Shut down FCP X, open PreferenceManager and in the window that appears:-
1. Ensure that only FCP X is selected.
2. Click Trash
The job is done instantly and you can re-open FCP X.
There is absolutely no danger in trashing preferences and you can do it as often as you like.
The preferences are kept separately from FCP X and if there aren't any when FCP X opens it automatically creates new ones . . . instantly.

How do i import video from firewire?

I'm thinking of getting a Macbook Air for traveling where I can import photo's for editing and uploading and import video for editing. It looks like the Macbook Air will run Aperature and Final Cut Pro X but the problem is, how do I import video from a Camcorder like the Canon GL2? It is a firewire connection and the Macbook Air only has USB and Thunderbolt.
Thanks... Gary

Sonnet is supposed to be creating a TB-to-FW800 adapter... their press-release said available Q2/2012. No idea of the price, or its capabilities.

How do I import directly from Canon XA10 with Final Cut X?

How do I import directly from Canon XA10 with Final Cut X?

I have an XA10, and importing is quite simple. But you do have to make sure your camera is set to the proper settings to allow you to import the files into FCPX.
First, make sure the camera is powered on. Connect it through the USB connection. Then open the camera's viewfinder and press the button on the side of the camera that allows you to see the videos you've shot in the viewfinder. (This toggle button toggles between seeing what the camera is pointed at live and seeing the thumbnails of the video you've already shot that are stored on the internal memory card.) Now, the camera will present you with a menu asking which memory card you want to look at (there's an internal flash memory card, plus you can insert SD cards as well). Choose the memory card on which your videos are stored within the camera, and then you'll be good to go.
Now you can go into your FCPX event and do the Import from Camera. Now the Import from Camera interface will open up and you'll be able to select the XA10, where it will present you with all the videos that are on the camera's memory card that you selected.
From here, you can select individual videos and import them, or you can set in and out points on videos and just import the parts you want.

Hi
Sony TRV22E - CAN ONLY export the VIDEO material via a FireWire Cable (iLinc)
Then Your Mac need eiter

if only Thunderbolt - Then You need a FireWire to Thunderbolt converter.
The USB- can only copy over the Still photos You also cam take with Your Camera. Will NEVER work for Video Export.

How do i import video from my go pro to i movies

How do I import video from my go pro hero 4 to I movies

What model MacBook Pro do you have? On my late 2011, I used to use a Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter to get video and audio from my Mac to my television. I used this adapter from Monoprice. Worked great - I just no longer use it because I bought a 27" monitor.
You can also use AirPlay mirroring if you've the right MBP and an Apple TV - but the wired method works, too.

Follow the steps below to troubleshoot if the computer does not recognize the USB connection from the camcorder.
Turn off the camcorder.
Ensure the USB cable is connected securely to the camcorder.
Ensure the other end of the USB cable is connected securely to the USB port on the computer. NOTE: Connection through a USB hub is not supported.
With the exception of the mouse, keyboard, and camcorder, remove any other USB connected devices from the computer.
Turn on the camcorder.
On the camcorder LCD screen, touch the computer or hard disk icon.
If the issue is still not resolved, connect the USB cable to a different USB port on the computer.
If the issue is still not resolved, try uninstalling and reinstalling the USB driver.
If the issue is still not resolved, test the USB port on the computer by connecting a different USB device.
