I have a new sony HDR CX110. I cannot download from the camera to the iMac with the usb cable.

I can download from the handycam to a PC, but not to the Imac. Is there a problem, or am I just not doing it correctly? I have used other video cameras to download video to the mac. I go to import, but the handycam doesn't show up as an option to dowload to.

hughmass, is exactly right mentioning 1080 @ 60p as being a potential culprit. One option might be to use a conversion utility to re-wrap your footage into a format iMovie will accept. One example of these types of converters is ClickWrap (http://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap) and Voltaic HD (http://www.shedworx.com/voltaichd)

  • I have a new Sony HDR-CX360.  The PMB software included is onl

    I have a new Sony HDR-CX360 camera.  The PMB software included is only for PCs.  I am trying to import some video.  When I connect with the USB cable nothing happens.  What do I need to do to import my videos?

    Greetings,
    For long term headache free use, you may wish to return that camera and buy one that the manufacturer (Sony) indicates is Mac compatible.
    Your computer comes with the iMovie program installed which will import from a variety of cameras depending on which version of iMovie you have.  Here is the list of cameras that work with the current version of iMovie '11: http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras.  The model you indicate is not on the list although models before and after it are.  You could try just opening up iMovie from your Applications folder and see if it can recognize and import from that camera but as it is not on the list of tested cameras, it may or may not work.
    If iMovie does not see or cannot import from that camera and you don't want to take it back and get one that is Mac compatible then you will need AVCHD file conversion software to convert each movie you take:

    Hello,  I have songs that show they are "Waiting" for download from the cloud but they are greyed out.  Some songs in one album are done others in the same album will not download. It is not a time function because i have been working on this for weeks. I have allowed my compter to run for days and the songs are still not accessible.  I have a Match subscription and Match is working.  If I click on the "Genre" link the greyed out songs show that they are ready for download from the cloud but I cannot download them.  I have downloaded over 1500 other songs, so I am trying to understand what is going on here. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me.
    Thanks

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

  • Have FCP, new Sony HDR-FX7e and an iMac G5 (non intel core) please help

    Hi,
    This is going to be a bit of a dumb question but i need to ask to be sure of the equipement i have and if i need some new hardawre n my mac to capture the video in HD.
    I have an older iMac G5, FCP and a new Sony HDR-FX7e with Belkin 4-6 pin iLink cable.
    When i try to capture video that i have filmed in HD 29fps, FCP brings up an error:
    Something like: Codec is wrong and also hardware card. I am guessing that the video card is not capable enough as it is the one that came with the mac. Also i am trying to capture the video onto the Hard drive which has 198Gb left. I guess this needs a firewire drive capable of teh right speed.
    I am guessing here so please advise as i am so new to this you would not believe and i know it is ambitious of me to expect to plug and play but i can pick it up quickly with the right advice.
    Oh, the easy set up i used was on 1080i 60
    Thanks,
    Neil

    Neil,
    1) Your best bet is to get 5.1 if you do not have it yet. It is a paid crossgrade, but as long as you have the original install discs it is a simple process.
    2) The "e" at the end of your camera indicates that it is the PAL version I believe. Do you edit in PAL? or NTSC? Whichever you use just make sure to choose the proper easy setup.
    3) Since you have a G5, I would suggest using that as your video machine. You can get around the firewire situation in one of two ways. First, and best in my opinion, is to purchase a second internal SATA harddrive and install it in the spare bay, set this as your "Scratch Disk" and your off. Second, buy a PCI firewire card and install this in a spare PCI slot, then connect your firewire drive to this. Or, if you feel the need, do both.
    4) As for why iMovie works and FCP doesn't, the simple answer is the iMovie is a consumer program that has much lower tolerances than the PRO FCP. From what I understand, iMovie does not capture timecode and does not capture audio and video as separate files, among other things. To do these things there must be proper communication between the computer and camera.
    5) Another thought is that your camera may be set to downconvert the footage to SD on output. This might also explain why you got something in iMovie and not FCP. Check in the menu system for your cam and see if it is set to downconvert.

    Sorry, I put my question in the wrong place.  I'm afraid I will lose all my photos, etc., on the iPad.

    To import your photos to iPhoto, open the app on oyur computer, then connect your iPad. wait for it to show up on the left toolbar and you can select all and import them to your iPhoto library. Drag and drop it to your desktop or wheverever you want them. Is it just photos you wanted to import?

  • Imovie HD6.0.3 won't see my new Sony HDR-CX11E USB connected camcorder

    Despite spending 4 hours now and wanting to shoot myself in the face. My brand new Sony HDR-CX11E is not being recognised by Imovie HD 6.0.3.
    I have followed the instructions to the letter about a hundred times now. I'm using a Intel Core Duo imac, when I plug in the USB cable the memory stick is showing on the desktop, but when I open Imovie.... nothing, No Camera Attached. I have tried opening imovie with every available option tagged, DV, DV Wide, HDV 1080, HDV 720, Mpeg4 but every time it just fails to see the camcorder.
    I read in one of my thousand searches on the subject that you first need to delete any Mpeg2 content from the camera, but I only bought it today and can't find any to delete, I even reformatted the stick to no avail.
    PLEASE help !!!!!

    iMovie HD6 requires a miniDV camcorder to capture video via Firewire. It will not work with any other format of camcorder, like yours, that only has USB.
    If you still want to stay with HD6, and who wouldn't, as it is still the best non pro editing platform there is, you should return that cam for a Sony miniDV model.
    Otherwise, you will need to get iLife 09.

    You can use Adobe's free DNG converter to convert proprietary raws to the universal DNG raw format. Here are the links:
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 9.0
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 9.0
    Converting to JPEG will be an extra step afterwards.

    The support for that camera was added in the very latest release of Lightroom, version 5.7.1. Having downloaded Camera Raw 8.7.1 will have no effect on Lightroom because Lightroom doesn't use the Camera Raw plug-in. You need to make sure you have updated Lightroom to the very latest release in order to have support for that camera.

    Photo Stream does not do videos. For videos, you must import to your computer. You can use iPhoto to import them.
