I use a Canon VIXIA HFM41 camera with bluetooth WM-V1 mic and receiver. Audio drops in and out.

Trying to figure out why my audio kept dropping in and out while recording a 90 minute presentation this past weekend.
I just recorded 90 mins today in my office of a TV monitor screen and audio - no audio problems. Batteries were fresh and camera was fully charged over the weekend before I had the audio problems. Bluetooth? Could there have been some sort of cellphone interference with the bluetooth audio signal that caused the problem? I was with a group of about 25 people when recording the event - and I was the only person recording video/audio. My camera was about 15-20 feet from the microphone, which was close to the house mic and sound system - but no interference at all with the audio I did capture.
The audio didn't just drop out - it faded out, and would fade back in after several minutes. Video was complete, no interruption or distortion. HELP!

Yes, you can use the 85 watt adaptor. You cannot use the new adaptors because your computer is not equipped with the proper MagSafe connector. But you can use the older MBP adaptors as well as a 60 watt replacement adaptor. All can be found at Apple's Online Store.

I have a macbook pro and I want to use my canon digital video camera on yahoo chat. When I sign on to chat and attempt to use a camera, the system automatically defaults to the built in camera on the notebook. Can I override that default?

You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

Canon Vixia hf20 work with FCE

Dose anyone know if the Canon VIXIA HX20 works with FCE it's AVCHD but no firewire port only usb

Yes it does. There are posts here almost daily about this. You won't use the 'Capture' feature like with FireWire cams, instead you'll use the "Log and Transfer" feature...plenty of posts here about that.

STRANGE: two Canon Vixia Hg20 cameras, only one is recognized by FCP

I have two Canon Vixia HG20 cameras and 2 iMac 3.06 GHz Intel dual core computers. Both have Final Cut Pro 6.0.5 (latest update for that version).
The mystery: Final Cut Pro used to recognize both of the cameras, but now it only recognizes one. I've tried both cameras on both computers with the same USB cable, and I get teh same result every time. I try to log and transfer, but it can only detect the one camera. Both iMacs show the camera as an icon on the desktop and I can see there are files on the drive. I can see ".cpi" and ".mts" files on the drive. I've tried restarting the computer, restarting the cameras, waiting 15 minutes. I go through the exact same process with the same model camera but get two different results.
Obviously, something must have happened to the second camera. Perhaps it wasn't disconnected properly? Perhaps files were pulled off, or maybe something placed on it? Perhaps it is recording in a different format?

I was going to suggest you copy the contents of both of the cards to the Mac and see if you can import from there. But, umm, I don't even know if that's possible.
I'd start by formatting both cards, twice, in the camera. Open the cameras and identify each card, camera 1 and camera 2. Put a piece of masking tape on each camera and write a 1 and 2 on the tape. Go through each camera's menus carefully setting and matching each of the shooting parameters.
Make a card that say CAMERA 1 and shoot two minutes of it. Do the same with camera 2.
Now you have a binary system that can yield repeatable and trackable results.

I have CS4 and was using a Canon 5D Mark II with raw photos. I just got the Canon 5D Mark III and CS4 now can not read the raw photos. It has raw version 5.7.0.213 and CS4 version 11.0.2. Can anyone help?

So the CS4 will never be able to open Raw 5D Mark III files.
Why doesn’t my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?

I have a Canon Vixia HV30 camera and can't get Final Cut Pro x to recognize it. Any suggestions?

How can I get Final Cut ProX to recognize my Canon Vixia HV30 camera?

Does your Mac have a FW 800 port? If it does, use a 4 pin to 9 pin connection. If you have only Thunderbolt, use a FW>Tb adaptor. Either way, your Mac should see the camera. If it does, so will FCP.

Canon Flash 430EX 11 to go with my Canon EOS 70D camera with an 18-135mm lens.

I purchased a Canon Flash 430EX 11 to go with my Canon EOS 70D camera with an 18-135mm lens. The flash displays the icon confirming auto zoom only intermittenly and when it doesn't, twisting the camera zoom does not display on the flash screen. All batteries are charged and the flash is locked on to the camera.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I'm not entirely certain I understand your question. The 430EX II has can be put in a mode where it automatically follows the camera zoom (within limits... 24mm to 105mm) but you can ALSO put it into a mode where you manually control the flash zoom. If it's in the manual control mode then it will not automatically zoom.
It is important that the "wide" panel NOT be in-use (if you pull out and flip down the wide-panel then the flash will go to wide angle and will not zoom EVEN if it was in auto mode.)
Press the Zoom button, then use the - / + buttons to change the zoom.
When under manual control there's a black "M" icon which will appear next the word "Zoom". If the "M" is not present then it's in auto zoom mode.
Lastly... when you change the zoom on the camera lens, typically nothing will happen on the flash UNTIL you wake the system by doing a half-press of the shutter button. When the camera wakes up to meter and focus... that's when it adjusts the zoom on the flash head.

Do i need to use the phone line that came with the printer to fax paperwork or can I buy a new one?

This question was solved.

Hi Willcarter,
It is all up to you. You can use the phone line which came with the printer or you can get a new one. It does need to be a 2-wire phone line though.
Thanks

To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number. Since you can't make calls on the Mac.

Can i use a canon like 30 scanner with yosemite ?

can i use a canon lide 30 scanner with yosemite ? i cannot load any drivers

MissBea,
You can probably use your Canon printer with your HP notebook.
When connecting an HP printer to the computer, the printer works best when the printer software for that printer is downloaded and installed on the computer.
I would suggest that you need to do the same for the cannon printer, that is, you should download and install the driver (software) onto the computer. After you install the driver, and connect the printer using whatever means you have (wireless, USB, Ethernet), you should be able to control the printer from the computer.
Instead of installing HP printer software, you will need to install the printer software for your cannon printer.

It is a nice way to say “Thank You” for the help.

I'm using a Canon HV20 video camera that uses digital tape. After importing to my Events Library in Final Cut X, there are some timecode breaks between clips resulting also in gaps between the clips. Is there a way to avoid this?

Thanks Russ. I'm a beginner but Lynda.com has a video on making an archive, so I'll follow her video to try this method.
