IMovie '11 Does Not RecogniseMy Motion JPEG Still Camera?

Fallen at the first hurdle!
My Panasonic FX60 Digital still camera that shoots 1280x720 Motion JPEG is not recognised, though I can see its icon on the desktop and can copy the video onto my desktop.
If I click File>Import from Camera, I get a beautiful image of me from the iSight camera, which whilst being a pleasure to behold, does not help with the importation of video.
Will I have to copy to the desktop etc. or can the beast be made to communicate with my camera?

iM is NOT Finalcut, as I told you before.
it is essential to use iM's own import routines to make 'videos' accessable for iM. that includes the 'right' formats (=iM cares for conversion) and the right location (= iM Events).
You HAVE to import via 'import from camera' AppleMan1958 mentioned above - the m-jpegs my Lumix FZ38 records are readable, appear as 'clips' in the camera-import dialog. I've heard of trouble when m-jpg and avchd is on same SDcard... perhaps for your first steps, keep it simple ...

  • Safari 6 does not display motion jpegs from IP camera

    I do have several IP cameras from Axis and other companies. Until I upgraded to Moutain Lion / Safari 6, they worked fine. But in Safari 6, the motion JPEG is no longer streaming. It streams a few frames, but then stalls. Has anybody seen this as well?

    I will say that since I originally responded above that although Firefox works almost all the time, I have had a couple of occasions where Firefox as become unresponsive while streaming pictures from my Panasonic cameras...  The behavior is much worse on Safari where I can, in effect, only get one or a view images before it freezes and no more streaming occurs until you leave that streaming page and come right back to it, where it sends a few more frames and then freezes again...  Firefox never does any of that.  However, I do believe the couple of times where it has become unresponsive while streaming the same video images is likely related to a similar problem that Safari has under Mountain Lion.  But until Apple makes some improvement I have basically needed to stop using Safari to view images from these cameras...  I haven't tried Chrome...  Maybe I will give that a shot next... 
    And don't forget to send feedback to Apple at

  • IMovie 11 does not recognize my JVC mini cam

    Is there any solution to this?  My JVC mini cam connects and works on my old iMac that has iMovie 6, but my newer iMac (10.10.1) with iMovie 11 (10.0.6) won't recognize the camera at all.  Firewire 800 port to firewire 400 port to cable to JVC  GR-D350U.  Help says iMovie 11 works with most JVC tape-based cameras.

    The interface with DV cameras is very flaky. Too much intervening hardware may not work. However, I would assume iMovie could at least see the camera.
    However, if it is an Unknown device, it isn't getting passed to iMovie as a camera.  Try bypassing the Hub and see if it at least identifies.
    I was testing an old Canon DV camcorder to see if I had a problem. I did, but I think it is related to the cabling. I had a 4-pin to 6-pin cable going into an old, portable hard drive, then to a FW400 to FW800 cable, through my daisy-chain of FW800 drives. I got no video, but the controls worked (play, pause, etc.). I then connected directly to the Mac Mini, bypassing the hard drive daisy-chain, but still no video. I'm pretty sure the no-video is a cable problem, so I ordered a 4-pin to FW800.

  • Windows XP not recognizing the iphone still camera

    I have been using successfully iphone (2G) with itunes and photoshop. For last 1 week when i updated the itunes to 8 and iphone to 2.0.2, windows does not recognize the digital still camera. Hence photoshop and picassa can't detect iphone and i can't sync photos from iphone to photoshop and vice versa.
    It is working perfectly fine on other PCs. I know that there is something wrong with my windows or iphone drives but can't figure out what.
    Itunes is able to detect the iphone and can sync seamlessly. Can anyone help whats going wrong.

    One thing that might help.
    When the iphone is connected to the computer, click on start.
    Then right click on My Computer and choose Manage.
    In the computer management window, click device manager on the left hand side.
    The to right, look to see if there are any items with exclimation marks or red x.
    If one is the iphone or under imaging devices, try reloading the driver or delete is.
    If you delete it, disconnect the iphone and reconnect.
    Hope this helps.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I had done screen shots on the iPad and then emailed them to my Mac. I then worked to cut the black bar off the top, but some how Photoshop wasn't saving them correctly. I couldn't even reopen them in PS. So, I downloaded them again, went back in, saved them as .jpegs and then reuploaded.  That solved it.  It was quite bizarre. 
    Now trying to get the description listing right in the iBookstore.
    I wrote the piece out, I thought in TextEdit.  Then pasted it into the box in iTunesProducer. When I was getting the error message above, it also was saying that there's a 4,000-character limit. So, I copied it into Pages and did a character count and saw 3,887.  I still had to cut about 500 chactacters out.  Support responded and said I was still very close to the limit, so I don't know what it was they were counting. My Pages counter said it was close to 3,300....
    My problem now is that they have bullet points on lines with no text now.  They've fixed it from how it was first diplaying.  So, I'm trying to get that cleaned up.  It's their fault, but it looks like me, the publisher, is the one who is clueless......

    my iPod touch needs to be restored. however, all of my movies/apps/songs/photos are not backed up on my computer because the shop on my computer does not work. can i still get the memory on my iPod touch 32gb back?

    If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
    You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it. 
    Good luck.

    Try the following:

    2 - delete iPhoto's cache folder(s):

    Any advice??? Hope someone can help!

    iBookstore Publisher Support send me a fast response email which included some helpful info:
    Please make sure that all image files inside the ePub end with one of the following: ".tif", ".jpg", or ".png" and that the file itself matches the file extension type. To check if the image file matches the file extension type, please right click on the image then select "Get Info". Once the info tab appears, please make sure that the file extension type of the image file matches the "Kind" found under "General".
    For further information regarding embedded images, please refer to the iBookstore Asset Guide, which is available for download in the Deliver Your Content module in iTunes Connect.
    And they INCLUDED THE TRANSPORTER LOG (!), the log generated by iTunes Producer as it tries to upload a book. We were able to search for the Validation Error # within the log and find out which image Producer was trying to upload when it encountered an error. Turns out the problem was a corrupted screenshot jpeg.
    Grateful!

    Thank you for your reply.  I know I can use a card reader however I don't see why I should when importing directly from my camera has worked reliably for years.  The process I use is simply connecting the digital output from my camera to the USB port on the iMac, which has previously automatically opened iPhoto ready for the import.  Now all of a sudden my iMac does not recognise the camera.  However if I connect in the same way to my MacBook then iPhoto opens automatically on the MacBook, recognises the camera and is ready for importing.  So whilst I know I can use a reader, or my MacBook I want to use my iMac in the same way that I have for years.  I can only assume that the settings on the iMac may have changed, but I cannot verify this.

  • IMovie '11 does not add still shots correctly at all

    I am trying to make what's basically a slideshow with background music, and I can't get iMovie to add the pictures correctly.
    I drag the first five pictures into the area it tells me to drag it.
    The thumbnails show that the first shot is the actual first picture, and then the next four look like the 5th picture.
    As I scroll through the time lapse, the movie panel on the right shows the first picture five times.
    It didn't do this when I started iMovie for the very first time and was just tinkering with the buttons, but I am trying to start from a blank slate now that I know what I'm doing, and have all my pictures in order in a directory (their filenames now start with the numbers 1 through 74).
    I have deleted from /Users/myname/Library/Preferences the following files:
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    com.apple.iApps.plist.lockfile
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist.lockfile
    com.apple.iPhoto.LSSharedFileList.plist
    com.apple.iPhoto.LSSharedFileList.plist.lockfile
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist.lockfile
    This does not correct the problem (but thank you Bengt Wärleby for walking me through how to do it in https://discussions.apple.com/message/18491030#18491030).
    Is there an easy fix to this? Because I'm about ready to give up and find something to download to do this project in.
