I have a Mac OS X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder. When I get onto the sony webpage to download program to import movies onto my Mac, they only have downloads for Windows. How can I get a program for my Mac?

You shouldn't need any application except what you already have: iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto....
To check on compatibility with your model camcorder, check these out:

Some formats are not readable by the above; you can use something like MPEG Streamclip to convert the footage or Quicktime Pro (as mentioned in one of the articles).

I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

i have zero out all data on my imac, as i brought it second hand and the disk the guy supplied dont seem capatable with my imac to install the operating system again so it is frozen at the grey start up screen. should i buy a new snow leopard disc from apple and install that as my new operating system. please help as had the computer a month now and still cant use it yet.

You can call AppleCare and request a replacement set of the original DVD's that shipped with the computer for a nominal charge. You will need the serial number (look on the bottom of the stand) and a credit card. Click the AppleCare Contact Info link. Without knowing which iMac you have it's very difficult to say if a new SL disc would work or not.

No, and that shouldn't be done with an AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.

I have Prem. Elements 12. I am trying to add audio media. I know where the audio files are located (using GET INFO while in iTunes), and when I try to add certain audio files, some are accepted and some are not. In one case, when I opened a particular folder, the song was not listed, even tho' the song is there when using Windows Explorer. This happens with mp3 and mp4 and just wav files. Some audio are accepted, most are not. I get that codec is not installed error message, too.

It will, but there may be certain changes, which may be profound, especially live Type, depending on the version and thereby how many times the text engine has been changed.

How can I join/merge my AVCHD files that I tape with my camcorder without re-encoding the files?

I have a lot of tapes that cut in the middle while recording more than 12 minutes. I would like to join/merge my files. What should I do? Which softwares should I use?

Because I don't have any of Sony's softwares, or softwares that they use, I can't help much on that side of things, but programs that I use are
Freemake Video Converter to convert it into a format that VirtualDub can read, then use VirtualDub to load up the first file, then use the Amend AVI to add the next file that you want to merge, and keep going until you're ready.
Then I check the video and audio compression, make sure they're on full compression, choose the codec and video bitrate, and audio bitrate that I want, and save.
I'm sure Sony's programs, or the ones they use, make it much easier. Try PlayMemories and Sony Vegas, they'll work with the AVCHD files without too much extra converting (and if it does convert, it's all in-program so should be much easier)

Looking for HD camcorder that works well with FCP. I'm fed up!

Hello Cutters!
I have the JVC GZ-HD7. This cam is a complete total nightmare. I have tried everything and the kitchen sink to get it to capture or to playback its files on my Mac Pro! It works on my PC but I want to use my Mac.
I have renamed the .TOD files to everything you can think of...and nothing.
I paid $20 to Apple and downloaded the mpeg2 update... and nothing.
I have tried capturing video with FCP and iMovie. You just see a Blue screen.
I have download the QuickTime update from Panasonic and it doesn't work either because it's outdated.
I have also tried other wild and crazy things. I GIVE UP. I'm not stupid, i've done my research and I'm about to post this cam on eBay.
I also herd that the new Panasonic HD cams are difficult to work with on Macs to?
So what are you guys using??? What is working for you? Does anything work?
-Mark

HI, I know nothing about your camera.
But, months ago someone at the COW was having problems
playing .TOD files from his camera.
He put a sample to download on his iDIsk.
Bring the curious type I found the QuickTime TOD plugin
that comes on the software disk included with the camera.
I also found easy setups for FCP and the Everio cam.
**You can get an updater for your installed QuickTime Component for Everio
released last April here:
http://www2.cli.co.jp/products/ne/updateqtc_for_gzhd7/qtc3eupdate.htm
and FCP easy setups here:
http://www.everydayvideo.com/eng/GZHD7/indexqc.php
The aforementioned TOD clip then opens instantly in QuickTime player
ready to export in the format of your choosing.
This on Leopard 10.5.4 and QuickTime 7.5
This may or may not help.
NB, You must have the the +QuickTime Component for Everio+ from your software disk installed for the updater to work.
This updater specifically mentions your camera.

Help picking out a new video camcorder...what format do I use?

Help! I want to purchase a new HD video camcorder. I want a good unit with a limit being close to the $1,000 range. I will make some short movies and am struggling with what to purchase. I use FCE 4.01 for most of my editing, and sometimes I will use iMovie as well.
My struggle is the format. I've read so much stuff that I'm confused on what to purchase. I've used MiniDV in the past, yet there are a number of other formats out now and it appears that many of them will not work with my gear.
Can someone just give me a straight answer, do I stay with a tape unit, even though they are phasing this out? Or do I purchase another type of format. It needs to work with my MAC and not have any problems, hangups, or have to go through various steps and other programs to be able to use it. So simplicity is important. But I also don't want to be hard headed if I need to use another format.
Your help is very much appreciated.

.. AVCHD... I can use it, but it must be converted even though my MAC and FCE support the AVCHD format.
'supports' means: import from. - then, under the hood, out of your control, hidden in the woods.. ooops... - AVCHD gets converted into an edit-intermediate. you can not edit AVCHD natively on a Mac with iM or FCE. this transformation is mainly lossless. only thing, you'll notice: the content from you 8GB-SDcard grabs 40-60GBs on your Mac! => so high compressed is AVCHD, and for edit, you need each frame of video free accessible.. files get expanded..
As for easy to use, the HDV on miniDV tape is smooth. The biggest drawback is the length of time that it takes to import into the computer. And of course the fact that it is outdated.
naw, not outdated.. on a semi-pro level, tape is still #1. and that real-time import.. as a hobbyist, I'm not in a hurry..
biggest advantage: actually HDV is the ONLY format which allows to play-out your HiDef projects back to some media (=tiny miniDVtapes) .. AVCHD is one-way-only.. when edit done, then...? BluRay? extra costs, 'cause 3rd party solutions needed. MediaCenter? Extra.. AppleTV? No support of FullHD.. yet. Tape, Holocrystal, The Cloud...? Nope. AVCHD-sourced-projects can only be stored on harddrives. and even more harddrives.. you need additional harddrives for backups of the harddrives .. ... .. ... ...
I was actually thinking Canon based on all the reviews I have been reading.
they have an excellent reputation (some miniDVs acted iffy..) , Canon builds its own components, Canon is a brand in professional broadcasting.. I like them.. allthough my actual cam is a Sony :)))

I have imovie8.0.6 but cannot transfer from my sony hdr sr1. i think, if i upgrade to version 9,0,4 that this will work. but i need a version of 9.0.0 to upgrade. help please

i wish to upgrade to imovie 9.0.4 but the upgrade is only possible if i already have version 9.0.0. therefore i need advice please on how to upgrade in sequences from8.0.6 or are there anyother ways to do this please.? I read that with version of imovie 9.0.0 or later that i can transfer my hd and lesser resolution movies.

Thank you Neil,I have a macbook pro with snow leopard v.10.6.8.included intell core 2 duo with a processor speed 2.5ghb with one processor and cores 2.
can i download onto my laptop an update by internet to my imovie 8.0.6 directly or as i have read, the system will not let me do that unless i have imovie 9.0.0 already which i do not have.
Perhaps i misunderstand you. Do you mean purchase a software copy from an apple Store and the can i directly upgrade.

Mavericks Spotlight is Horrible -- I have to use my Windows 7 PC to find files that my MacAir with Mavericks cannot find -- what has happened to the famous Mac search feature? It is almost useless!

Why does Mavericks Spotlight not find files named, for example, Ono et al 2009, PNAS, 106(35), 14745-14750 - annotated when I use Ono as the search word. I can find the file using the search feature on my Windows 7 PC. Is there a way to change the perferences in Spotlight so it finds all file names if one searchers on a word in the file name? When I enter Ono in the Spotlight search box I get OnOff Switch slider, a list of files in which the Ono paper is referenced, and a Ono Yoko! But it does not find the 6 or so PDF files on the Computer with Ono and the primary author in the file name! Spotlight is almost useless.

First try to re-index Spotlight

Can anyone recommend a moderate priced camcorder to use with I movie 08'...

I recently purchased a i mac OSX version 10.5 and would like to buy a new camcorder. I would like recommendations for a good moderately priced camcorder to use with i movie 08 or i dvd. Thanks.

Take a look at the Panasonic line of miniDV tape cams. Their better cams have 3CCD's, which is desirable.
If you think you may wish to use iMovie 06, the earlier and, in the opinion of many iMovie faithful, the best iMovie version, you will require a miniDV tape cam with a Firewire port. Hard drive or DVD cams will not work with iMovie 06.
If you choose a format other than miniDV, make sure the cam chosen is on Apple's compatibility list and be aware that even that is no guarantee of glitch free connection to your Mac, as can be seen in the iMovie 08 postings.

Then new version of IMovie imported nearly all of my video and then suddenly closed. Now it won't recognize the video that it stil hasn't imported? I took the sd card out of the canon camcorder but still won't recognize or import it. Is there a cache that needs cleared?

Did you get any joy with answering this?
My first thought was that maybe when you imported you chose to leave the files in place rather than copy then to the iMovie library..but I can't see where that option is now.
I too have created a short movie from load f clips..but can't export or share either..the 'Share 'menu is empty..you go to it and no sub menu appears.
