  • How can i transfer al my data from a Sony laptop to a new macair?

    Hoy can i transfer all my data from a Sony laptop to new Mac airé?

    Just to add one extra explanation to simplify things:
    grab your (if you have one) external HD and move files (pics vids etc. documents) to same and load it to your macbook Air.
    Unless you are running bootcamp, I assume obviously there are no applications you're moving over from Win to Mac OSX.

  • How do I transfer mini dv tapes from a Sony videocamera to my macbook?

    How do I transfer mini dv tapes from a Sony videocamera to my macbook?  Issues are: my macbook has no hdmi port, no firewire port, and Sony does not support streaming USB between its mini dv tapes and Macs.
    Only available ports on my macbook
    I've been told I need an "external firewire capture card" to basically give my mac some semblance of firewire ability.  But no one so far can tell me definitively 1) what product to purchse and 2) that it actually works.
    I have had some tapes converted by Costco to dvd but those do not work - they are in an uneditable dv format.  I want to import the tapes to digital format in order to edit and create new video from them.
    Thanks!

    If you have tried all the Google search suggestions including the YouTube tutorials, then it's time to contact Sony tech support.  Or post in the iMovie forum area. 

  • Importing a lot of video clips from a Sony camera to FCE; during the Log and Transfer process, is there a way to add multiple clips to the browser instead of one at a time?

    Select one and click cmd-A which selects them all.
    Then click the import button if it hasn't started already.

  • Hi, what's the best way to transfer content from a Sony dcr-sx31 to an iMac

    Hi looking for some help please. I want to transfer video from my Sony dcr-sx31 to an iMac for editing and creating DVDs. I've heard that this is not straight forward so hoping someone  can give me the best approach or some top tips please

    Thanks for the update. The labeling around here is about as counter-intuitive as they could make it. This forum is for original iMacs with  PowerPC ("PPC") processors that were made from 1998 to late 2005. All iMacs since then have Intel processors--very different beasties--so they get a separate forum here:
    iMac (Intel)
    That where you find your gurus when you get your new iMac. Typically, forums for older models like this get less traffic and therefore fewer eyeballs than forums for newer products,
    However, you may get faster response for contacting Sony. I recall their Mac support being hit or miss depending on the product line.
    for editing and creating DVDs
    Also note that new iMacs come with iLife BUT iLife no longer includes the DVD creator program iDVD on preinstalled bundles. Apparently people have been able to get it by calling Apple and protesting that there computer did not ship with all the components that are in the iLife Boxed set. YMMV

  • I need to transfer my address book from a Sony Ericsson ...

    I need to transfer my address book from a Sony Ericsson K810i to a Blackberry 8120. Please can you help as I'm having great trouble doing it! Thanks

    Hi there!
    The device switch wizard is available for many non-BB devices...see this KB:
    KB05459 How to use the Switch Device Wizard to switch from another smartphone to a BlackBerry smartphone
    If your old device is not compatible with the wizard, then you need to find out if the old device can export the data you desire so that the BB can import it:
    KB11194 How to import contacts from an CSV file to the BlackBerry device
    If you are already using a compatible desktop PIM with your old device, then the RIM software can import from the PIM and bypass the old device completely:
    KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
    KB17022 How to configure synchronization settings for BlackBerry Desktop Manager
    If that does not work, then please return to these forums (http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/) and register an account so that we can provide you with direct assistance.

  • When i try to upload a .mts file from my Sony camera to Premiere Pro CC it refuses to play the audio! Ofcourse i could convert every single clip but it takes tons of time. How can i make Pr play audio track properly?

    When i try to upload a .mts file from my Sony camera to Premiere Pro CC it refuses to play the audio! Ofcourse i could convert every single clip but it takes tons of time. How can i make Pr play audio track properly?

    Does it not play at all or cannot you get the audio in the timeline?
    Did you copy the entire card to the hdd and then imported the file via the Media Browser?
    Did you source patch the audio tracks?

  • I can't find the videos from my Sony camera on my Mac Book Pro

    I can't locate the videos from my Sony camera on my Mac Book Pro.  Do I need additional software?

    How & where did you search?  I gather the videos are no longer in the cam?  Where do you have the videos go when transferring from your cam?
    Download WhatSize and/or OmniDiskSweeper to see if you can "see" the videos.

  • Use of PlayMemory on ipad to read video from a sony camera

    how can I read the videos taken from my Sony camera TX10 format TS (AVC)? Videos from a Canon camera appear amonst the photos but not with the Sony camera
    I have dowloaded the PlayMemory Mobile application but it is still not working.
    Thanks for your help

    I have used Canon still cameras for more than 20 years, always with great results. I love my Canon digital cameras. However, I have not purchased a video camera.
    I like Canon too.
    USB is not a good way to import Video.
    USB camcorders use formats that use high compression to store the video files thereby lowering quality. This may be good enough to give you "decent footage" if so, then you won't have a problem using a USB camcorder. However I have never been happy with the quality that a USB camcorder provides (they always look grainy to me).
    A miniDV tape cam will give you lossless quality video and is best for any editing purposes (iMovie, Final Cut etc.). So without Firewire make sure you get a chance to try out any USB camcorder before you buy.
    Having a tape cam also allows you to always safely keep your original footage, plus make a tape copy of your finished movie by exporting from iMovie HD6 back to your cam. Tapes are far more reliable long term storage media, if stored properly, than any DVD or hard drive will ever be.

  • Cannot transfer Time Machine backups from one external drive to another

    Since I bought my 13 inch MacBook Pro in September 2014 I've been keeping Time Machine backups on an external 1TB Lacie Rugged.  This is partitioned into three and one of the partitions contains my iPhoto library. 
    Last weekend I left my MBP disconnected from the power source but with the external hard drive still plugged in.  Long story short - the battery level fell below the minimum needed to operate so it turned itself off and 'disconnected' the external hard drive.  This resulted in a corrupted iPhoto library which is no longer accessible.
    In order to restore my iPhoto Library from another backup I needed to buy a second external hard drive.  Yesterday I bought a 2TB Lacie Rugged which I've now partitioned into 5. 
    I want to move my Time Machine backups from the 1TB Lacie Rugged to a partition on the 2TB Lacie Rugged (to take advantage of the new Lacie's Thunderbolt connection). 
    I read the Apple article -
    HT202380: Time Machine: How to transfer backups from the current backup drive to a new backup drive
    and followed the instructions precisely.  About 2 hours into the transfer I came back to my MacBook Pro and saw a message saying that it was not possible to complete the transfer because I did not have the correct permissions.  The only option was to click the OK button which stopped the transfer.
    Can anyone advise what I should do next?
    Cheers

    Hi Eric,
    Thank you for your response.  I came across another thread yesterday which suggested the Restore via Disk Utility method.  It worked for me, too.  This was after I had tried following the method suggested in the Apple article above three times but each time the message was the same ....
    The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items.
    I dare say that Apple would like to have us believe that it's a simple matter of 'drag and drop' but it certainly wasn't for me.  From what I've read the permission problem crops up fairly frequently. Before the second and third attempts  I had already amended Permissions on the Time Machine backups so that everyone could read and write, so that mustn't have been the problem.  I'm the only person who uses my computer so that's not a problem.
    The next problem I have is that I decided I would use the Restore route to transfer my SuperDuper clone rather than start from scratch.  Unfortunately, the partition size on my original backup disk where SuperDuper clone is is 350GB and the size of the SuperDuper clone partition on my new backup is 300GB.
    Of course, Apple says you can resize partitions using Disk Utility.  What they don't say is you can downsize partitions but (in my experience and that of many other frustrated users on various forums) you CANNOT upsize using Disk Utility.  I have 100GB spare on my external hard drive (from downsizing two partitions by 50GB each) BUT there is no way Disk Utility will let me increase the size of SuperDuper partition to 350GB :-(((
    Cheers

  • Cannot open recent downloaded files from my Nikon camera. Elements 12

    I just downloaded pictures from my camera and cannot open them in organizer.  It immediately goes to searching missing files in another hard drive from the one designated.  When I manually go to the actual area where I have the pictures and try to "find" them, I get a message that they are already there. While that is no suprise in and of itself, what is going on???  I have tried to restore catalogs and repair catalogs to no avail.  Win 7 64 bit system.  Other pictures  I have loaded are fine.

    I found the solution in a Light Room forum.  The problem was I was using an older version of View NX2 to transfer the files. I uninstalled that version and installed the version supplied with the D3200. The files now load into Elements 11 with no problem. Apparently the old version affects the content of  the NEF files, as Elements was not able to recognize them, and gave an error message that the files were from an unsupported camera.
    Thanks for looking into this, Don Rieser
