how do i import video from my sony cx130 to imovie?

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.

  • How do I import video from a Sony DSC-HX100V Camera into iPhoto

    How do I import video from a Sony DSC-HX100V Camera into iPhoto? . . . i can see all the photos but the videos are not visable (I also connected the SD card with a USB Sony SD Card Reader - again only the photos are accessible - no video files are shown) . . .

    If you're shooting AVCHD then you'll need to upgrade to iPhoto 11v9.3 to import this material.
    A note on AVCHD: This format was developed for people who are shooting to edit the material afterwards. If you're shooting to edit, then iMovie or Final Cut are the correct home for this material. If you're not shooting to edit consider using one of the other video formats on your Camera.

    I need help importing video from a Sony handycam DCR-SX43 to my mac, driving me crazy

    You can use Image Capture located in your Applications folder.
    Connect the camera to your Mac.
    Launch Image Capture
    Select Image Capture from the pop up menu (bottom left corner of the iMage Capture window).
    At the bottom of the window click the pop up menu to select the folder where you want the videos stored.
    Select the Import or Import All button at the bottom of the Image Capture window.

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

    Hello,
    Thank you in advance for your help. I am trying to import a video from a a Canon zr500 to iMovie 2011 for a college course assignment and the camcorder is not being recognized when plugged in via firewire. 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,
    Ben

    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.

  • How do i import videos from my iPhoto to my iMovie?

    I need to know how to import video clips from my iPhoto to my iMovie to put into a movie. I know how to import pictures from iPhoto to iMovie but not video clips. Help??

    All the compatible videos that you have in iPhoto should appear automatically in iMovie in an Event named "iPhoto Videos".
    Each time you open iMovie, it will look for any new video clips in iPhoto. Thumbnails will be generated and placed in chronological order in the iPhoto Videos Event.
    You can drag clips from the iPhoto Videos Event to the timeline of any project (new or established), just as you do with clips in other Events.
    Note that no duplication occurs on the hard drive. The clip thumbnails in the iPhoto Videos Event are simply referenced (linked to) the actual video in the iPhoto app.
    So, there is really no need to separately import the iPhoto video clips into iMovie - unless of course you have a particular reason to do this (such as for a better organisation of the clips).

  • How do I import video from Sony TRV22E into iMovie ?

    How do I import video from Sony TRV22E into iMovie ?

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

  • Cannot import videos from a sony camcorder.

    cannot import videos from a sony camcorder.

    Hi cape_surfers, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    UPDATE1: About the MPEG-2 component included with iMovie ‘08
    UPDATE2: After raising a stink, I figured that I’d spend a little more time trying to figure out how to make my Handycam work with native iMovie ‘08. Turns out that you have to turn on the camera, wait for OS X pick it up as a USB storage device, and then hang tight for three or four minutes until iMovie detects that your USB storage device is actually a camcorder, and presents the import dialog. I’m glad that I can import native MPEG-2, but am somewhat puzzled by the delay.

    How do I import movies from a sony handycam?

    I used iMovie 11 last night on OS 10.8.2 ...  spent some time but it finally recognized my Sony Handycam SR-12.
    bottom line:
    open iMovie
    connect Handycam
    import videos
    took 3 or 4 times but it worked in the end.

  • My computer is no longer allowing me to import video from my Sony HDR camera.

    My computer is no longer allowing me to import video from my Sony HDR camera.  I don't know if it is the operating system or the version of imovie or what.  I also have imovie 06 and I was always able to import into it and can no longer do that either.
