I have a sony hdr td 20ve 3d video camera. Is it possible to import into iMovie 11, edit and export in 3D? I have an iMac 2008 model running Lion 10.7.4

Is it possible to import 3d from the Sony 3D videocamera,model HDR TD 20VE into iMovie 11, edit and export the files to iDVD and produce a disc that plays on a 3d compatible DVD player?

Yes, you can purchase Lion as well as iPhoto and iMovie from the App Store. But before you can do that you must update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 by installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 update. Then you can sign into the App Store with your Apple ID and password, locate the items you want, purchase them, and download them to your computer.

  • Stupid Question :) I took some video on my iphone but I did not flip the phone horizontally - have I screwed up the sizing and it will never import into imovie to edit it?

    You can do this using Quicktime Pro 7:
    Open MOV file in QT Pro (QT 7.6.6)
    Window -> Show Movie Properties
    select "Video Track"
    select "Visual Settings" from lower window
    check "Preserve Aspect Ratio"
    Click on appropriate rotation icon (MOV rotates!)
    Click back on the open MOV in Player Window
    FILE -> Save
    You can also do this using TransformMovie, available here:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/21859
    Also, MPEG Streamclip can rotate video while maintaining the aspect ratio as well as the interlacing when converting to DV, which is what iMovie prefers as an input:

    There is also a plug-in for iMovie from GeeThree called rotate/scale that might do the job:

  • I have iMovie 09 and have successfully used an older Sony Handycam to directly capture and record. Now I have a Sony HDR-PJ230 and it is not recognized. Do I need to upgrade to iMovie 11 or ???

    Now I have a Sony HDR-PJ230 and it is not recognized in iMovie09. Do I need to upgrade to iMovie 11 or ???

    Hi jcm2656,
    iMovie ’09 does not support the Sony HDr-PJ230 camcorder. See this article for a list of cameras supported for that version of iMovie -
    iMovie '09: Camcorder Support
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3290#1
    iMovie ’11 however, does support it. See this article -
    Apple - iLife '11 Help - iMovie ’11 Supported Cameras
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras/en/index.html
    Note that iMovie does not support footage recorded in 1080-60p from this Camcorder.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • I have a sony HDR-SR5 camcorder and need to empty the iternal hard-drive. I have downloaded onto Picture Motion Browser and woud like to know if this will have stored all of the data on the hard-drive so can go back and edit later.

    I have a Sony HDR-SR5 camcorder with a 40GB internal hard-drive. I need to clear the hard-drive as it's almost full. I have managed to download the footage onto Picture Motion Browser, but am wondering whether PMB will have stored all the info from the camcorder hard-drive so that I can edit later.
    Also, I would like to back-up on another hard-drive, but when I have tried this I can't view the footage stored on the hard-drive so am not sure whether I have backed up sufficiently and in what format? If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful...

    >I have managed to download the footage onto Picture Motion Browser
    Isn't Picture Motion Browser available for Windows only?  If so, why are you posting in an Final Cut Express forum?  My apologies if I'm incorrect.

  • Does anyone have the Sony HDR-XR500V video camera??

    Does anyone have the Sony HDR-XR500V video camera??
    Is it compatible with a G5 PowerPC? Any pros? or cons? Please advice.

    I'd stay away from Sony unless you are buying pro stuff, but even then...
    Sony software is only compatible with windows & their mac support is pretty much non-existant.
    plus, hard drive camcorders are a terrible idea! if you start having problems, poof, there goes the hours of footage. Even the Sony cams that use flash cards are a bad choice - you usually have to buy their magic gate cards.
    I'd stick with Panasonic or Canon cameras that are SDHC+Internal or just SDHC. AT least this way the cards can be replaced, you can expand the memory, & it's SD - much cheaper to buy than the magic gate cards.
    check out camcorderinfo.com for more info & reviews.
    Now, to import your footage, you will need an app like Voltaic as importing AVCHD with Apple's video apps is only supported on Intel machines. You can still edit with iMovie or Final Cut - the versions that support HD, but the initial import from the camera will have to be done with the 3rd party utility.

  • I have a Sony HDR-AX2000.

    I have a Sony HDR-AX2000. I also have iMovie 9.0.1 and OS 10.6.8 and have an iMac with Intel Duo Core processor. I have shot many items on my camera and cannot for the life of me download them into iMovie. Both the CLI files and the MTS files are greyed-out and will not allow themselves to be selected much less downloaded. Please help.

    Maybe try updating the iMovie version to 9.0.4 unless you're trying to keep the older version for some reason. The MTS files are part of an arrangement of little files and folders that iMovie should recognize as an AVCHD archive. Which it doesn't sound like it is seeing right now.

  • How to convert and import MTS files from my Sony NEX 10e into iMovie for editing?

    Hi, dear all,
    I have hard time to bring in my footage shoot using Sony NEX 10e camcorder into iMovie 11 for editing. Is there anyway I can convert these MTS files foe editing in IMovie 11?
    Thanks in advance!!
    Kevin

    Some frame rates and resolution combos will not import into iMovie directly. That's true. For instance, 1920x1080 @ 60 progressive frames per second (meaning not interlaced), that is not compatible with iMovie and you might need to convert it using a program like ClipWrap. Also if you have just the 'bare' .mts files, iMovie will not be able to import those either. iMovie expects to find all the folders and auxiliiary files recorded onto the memory card when you shoot AVCHD video. It needs all those extra pieces to navigate to the video clips and subsequently convert them from .mts to Apple Intermediate Codec. So in the case where you have a 'bare' .mts file use Voltaic HD to do the conversion.

  • Trouble importing into iMovie from Sony Handicam

    Recently I tried to import video from my sony handicam into iMovie11.  The video imported, but there was no audio. I used to be able to import with this camera no problem.  Did apple do something?
    Anyone have problems importing with thier Sony Handicam DCR - SX43?  Video imports, but audio will not import into imovie anymore.

    hey there tomaswk, welcom to Discussions.
    1) when importing HDV, iMovie/FCE HD converts it on the fly to A.I.C.-Apple Intermediate Codec. you'll need @ least 2 GB of RAM to approach realtime ingest to your MBP. i have 2.5 GB on my DP G5.
    2) the conversion also results in file sizes about 4 times the size of SD video. plenty of RAM is a necessity for HDV in iMovie or FCE HD. sounds like the partition could be the culprit. maybe get an external FireWire HDD for your HDV iMovies.
    good luck.

  • Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text.  I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard.  What is the remedy for this.  If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

    I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
    If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

  • I have an old file with an .A4P video from 1999. I don't own any Adobe products (and don't really want to buy any). I just want to be able to convert the file to something that I can actually view. Any help?

    I was a kid when I made a documentary for a school project. I've been trying to figure out how to retrieve the file. 4 years ago, I was able to get the files off the Iomega Zip drive (finally), but I now see the file is saved as a .A4P. There is also a file saved as a .PKG as well, but I don't know how to open this with my Windows 8 COmputer.

    .a4p is an Authorware v.4 (Windows) project.
    Interesting you have it as a .pkg...usually that's a published-on-a- Mac extension, if I recall.
    At any rate, can you put the file up on a Box, Dropbox, FTP, etc...and send me a URL?
    I should be able to published it so you can view the project (it would be an .exe).
    It can't be converted to anything though - not without manual effort.

    If a restore did not fix it, you have a hardware issue--possible bad wi-fi radio.

  • Problem - I input a new event into my iPhone calendar and it does not update on my iMac or iPad. I have loaded the latest software on all devices and have switched over to iCloud. Suggestions?

    Problem - I input a new event into my iPhone calendar and it does not update on my iMac or iPad calendars. I have loaded the latest software on all devices and have switched over to iCloud. Suggestions?

    On the iMac open System Prerferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Calendars then reselect then restart the iMac.
    On the iPad, tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Calendars off then back on then reset the iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Hopefully the event synced over all the devices.

  • I was organizing my photos into albums. then deleting them from my Camera roll. Then I went into MY Photo Stream and started deleting the pics I had moved to albums;Come to find out I deleted all pic from everywhere!!  Would the iCloud still have them sav

    First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
    Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
    Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
    What computer do you have?
