I have a sony handy cam which states it is not compatiable with my macbook pro. need some help.

Hello, i have a sony handy cam and it states that it is not compatiable with my macbook pro to download videos or pictures. Any suggestions on how this can be done???

Hello, I also have a Sony Handycam; trying to download movies to the my Mac Book Pro 15" was very a very slow process but it is possible. Then I tried to download the movies into an external hard drive (my computer's memory got filled really fast) and from that just work from iMove but after searching through Sony's website I read it is necessary to acquire a transference cable to improve this process.

  • I have a sony handy cam model HDR-HC1 and a mac pro running osx10.9.3, are they compatible? as far as downloading movies from my handy cam. thanks in advance

    i have a sony handy cam model HDR-HC1 and a mac pro running osx10.9.3, are they compatible? as far as downloading movies from my handy cam. thanks in advance. If not, is there a different route i can take to get those recordings in to my mac pro?

    See if the cam shows up under Devices in the Image Capture app.
    Image Capture is located in your Applications folder.
    Launch Image Capture then connect the camera.
    The camera should show up under Devices top left side of the Image Capture window.
    Now look at the bottom left side of the window. Click the: Connecting this (device) opens: pop up menu and select an application to import your photos.
    You can also select a folder to import photos from the Import To: pop up menu.
    Selet the photos you want to import then click Import or Import All on the right.

  • I have a Sony HVR-V1P, can i successfully capture and edit with Final Cut Pro X

      I have a Sony HVR-V1P, can i successfully capture and edit with Final Cut Pro X

    My HVR-A1U was able to capture just fine.  The only issue I had is that it has mroe frequently than FCP 7 ever did find Timecode breaks and split my clip apart.  I never had breaks before, so while it is possible I had them on this latest tape, I think X is just more picky.  I mean heck, it found three in a one minute timeframe.  My A1U worked with X without me needing to adjsut any settings form how I had it setup for 7.

  • I need to generate a still shot from from a video. I would like to accomplish this task using a single application. If this is not possible with my MacBook Pro as purchased from Apple, please recommend which applications I can purchase.

    I need to generate a still shot from from a video I made with my camera. I would like to accomplish this task using a single application. If this is not possible with my MacBook Pro as purchased from Apple, please recommend which applications I can purchase that include this feature. Thanks in advance.

    For FREE do the following:
    When you get to othe part of the video you want a still shot from, put the video on pause. 
    Take a screen shot:  Apple>Shift>4 - which will produce a cross hair so you can manually select which part of the video you want.Check inside either your Applications or Utility folder for an app called Grab.  Will do the above with just a single click.
    If you still want to purchase software, suggest that you do a Google & MacUpdate search.  This way, you can find exactly what you want. 

  • I have an Acer external hard drive 500GB.  Is it compatible with Apple MacBook Pro laptop?

    I have an Acer external hard drive 500GB.  Is it compatible with Apple MacBook Pro laptop?

    There are only a handful or Hard Drive mechanism manufacturers left. Acer is not one of them, although they may make the enclosure (but probably not that either). So in essence you have a Brand-X enclosure with some sort of Hard Drive inside.
    Most of those work fine once they are re-Initialized for use on the Mac. For me, I prefer to use the Re-purposing of a drive as an opportunity to re-write every block with Zeroes (which can take several hours but can be done in the background), assuring that every block is good.

  • I lost my ipod touch 4g and I have find my iphone on but I dont know how to find it. I need some help to track my stolen ipod touch 4g.

    I need some help to track my lost ipod touch 4g

    If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled or the iPod been completely restored). 
    If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police in case someone turns it in, and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance). 
    Regards.

  • HT3290 I have a Sony handy cam DCRDVD92 NTSC camera. Will i be able to down load to IMovie

    I am new to Mac world and i do alot of filming my childrens sporting events. I have a Sony DCR DVD92 NTSC Handycam. Please let me know if i can download to IMovie and if there is a place to walk me through the process?

    If your posted Mac OS X (10.2.x) information is correct, your iMovie software may be so old that this will not work, but here is Sony's help on importing from your DCR-DVD92:

    iTunes issues can be posted in the iTunes forum where all those experts are waiting for you.

    Now you want to get commercial software for free? That is in violation of SLA that you will agree to when you install commercial and/or shareware software. It also violates the TOU of this forum you agreed to when you joined. I think you need to rethink your Mac path.

  • HT3275 I am received an error on my Time Capsule   which states the backup disk image  "Volumes/Data/MacBook Pro. sparse bundle? is already in use.  so time machine couldn't complete the backup to time capsule - any suggestion

    I've received an error message    Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to Time Capsule,   the backup disk image  /Volumes/Date/....MacBook Pro.sparsebundle" is already in use.  Any suggestions as to what I can do to fix it?

    I've got mine working again by deleting a partial backup that was on the Time Capsule.
    I mounted the backup sparsebundle, and then browsed the content and found a filestucture named <timstamp>.inProgress. I removed that and the followed the tip to disconnect described above. That did the trick for me.

  • TS4006 i just bought a ipad. it is been charge on the table (in a hair salon). i am busy with the customer, when i came back, the ipad has been stolen. I did not set up the ipad yet. how can i find the ipad with the icloud. i need some help, please.

     

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately you can only enable Find my Phone while you have the device, I'm afraid there isn't anything you can do now.

  • I can no longer connect to the cloud which is a free wifi network with my macbook pro although my iPad is fine.

    thecloud are not providing much help and I wonder whether any of you know how I can clear any settings that might need to be refreshed.  I can connet to other wifi networks with no problem.

    They seem to think this is a known issue for MACS

  • Sony handy cam and iMac

    Hi.  I am a fairly new iMac user.  I have a Sony handy cam and my daughter has a canon video camera.  Both are fairly new.  Is there a way to get the videos onto the iMac with the memory card or USB?  Unfortunately the cameras were bought before the computer-I never would have thought Sony wouldn't be compatible with a Mac.  Thanks for any help!

    What is the specific model of camera and how are you connecting it (Firewire or USB)? What version of Mac OS X are you running? And what capture application are you using, iMovie or something else?
    BTW: Since you're new to the Discussions, here are some general tips for getting the most from the forums:
    - For future question posts, please fill in the Apple ID Preferences in your Discussions Profile with complete information about your system (exact model, RAM, hard drive space, OS and level, etc.). Then be sure to check the Show information about your computer box below the text input field when you create a message. If you have more than one type of system, include the same information as appropriate to the system you're asking about in the body of your post. By providing complete information on your system, others will be better equipped to help you resolve problems.
    - Please be sure to read the forum FAQs and do a search for your topic both in the KnowledgeBase and in the Discussions forums (try at least a couple of different keywords) to see if your question has already been addressed before you post a new question. It may save you waiting time, and will help keep the forums from getting cluttered with redundant posts.
