Imovie 11 does not support 8MM?

I have been struggling in the Imac community on a problem for a while.  I have an old Sony Handycam TRV-530 that uses digity 8mm tape.  My Imac is one of the new ones that no longer has a firewire port.  I purchased the firewire to Thunderbolt adapter at my local Apple store.  When I plug the camcorder into the Thunderbolt port on the Imac, I can see the camcorder on FaceTime.  I can use the camcorder as my camera on FaceTime.  When I pull up Imovie so that I can import all my old home movies, Imovie does not recognize the camcorder.  I then took the firewire cable and plugged it directly into my wife's 2009 Macbook's firewire port, the camcorder was immediately recognized and was ready to import.  Her Macbook has Imovie 9.
So.....either there is a problem with the Thunderbolt adaptor or Imovie 11 no longer supports 8MM digital tape?  How can I determine the correct answer?

Hi I have a similiar problem to yours with imovie 11. Just wondering if you could tell me how you fixed yours?
I purchased my new iMac two days ago mainly to use iMovie.
But after editing projects for around 30mins it seems to freeze and requires a force quit. When I restart I can't edit or playback the project, almost as though it is locked.
I've tried deleting preferences for imovie and repairing through utilities. I've also tried deleting the projects and starting new ones but the same problem happens after about 30mins of editing.
Installed latest updates for OS X 10.7.1, and using imac with imovie 11
I'm a brand new mac user and to encounter this problem after just one hour of use is quite frustrating.
Ps. I'm not sure if its related but in Finder on the left when all the places are listed, I don't see my username... not sure if it should be there?

  • What is the best converter for video files in mpeg, avi, wmv, mps, etc for imovie and what type of video files does the iMovie use? I recently purchased a MacBook Pro -version 10.10.1. I make movies, but the iMovie does not support my video files.

  • Okay, just tell me now that Mavericks does not support iMovie 6 HD which I have migrated across my devices since it first came out as iMovie 4. If this is true, then I will just jump off the nearest bridge, as I use it as a business.

    Okay, just tell me now that Mavericks does not support iMovie 6 HD which I have migrated across my devices since it first came out as iMovie 4 and have supplemented with third party add ons from 3Gee. If this is true, then I will just jump off the nearest bridge, as I use it for my videography business. Since upgrading to Mav, I can not get the program to launch and am getting no pop up to tell me what is going on. It let me open and start a project at first, but then I was half way through and it crashed and I lost everything and now will not launch at all. Does anyone out there still use this magnificent program? Please help—the wedding I just commissioned is on hold and I am not want looking forward to facing a bridezilla.

    right now just to get yer work done, get ahold of any OS that will run iM6HD and get it done. then dump MAVRICKS (wait till 10.9.2 at least) and retro back to OSX 10.6..or 10.7 (if you have it). I use FCExpress4 on 10.6....you might want to consider keeping a dedicated mini or something that ONLY runs your editing sw. I have 2 older machines that I will never upgrade because the editing SW wont run on the newwer OSs.
    abuve all, be honest with your client. we all got kind of blindsided by this initial relese (like a bug infested matress).
    ask if they have any apple stuff that has Mavricks probs. bridzillas only happen when they are out of the loop. Keep them informed. but ...also be ready to duck.
    hope this helps.

  • This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support

    Editing Error: This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format.
    I have been having this issue when trying to open photos in CS4. It only seems to be affecting images from the last year or so, although I'm using the same cameras (Canon 7D, 5D, and S90) as before. My library is large, going back to year 2000, and all the older images seem to work fine, but most all of the recent files display this error when trying to open them is CS4. I've tried the methods described in other threads and on the support website, namely starting aperture while holding option and command, pulling up the options to rebuild the library in various ways. I've done all three options, the last two twice, with no change. This is very frustrating to not be able to use the program in the way I had planned... Any ideas? I'm wondering if my library is simply too large- although I'm not sure if breaking the library into smaller chunks is the best way to go. I prefer having all my photos together. I have found that iMovie fails to operate properly when events get too large. Is this a similar problem?

    Again, thanks for the input. As for the first suggestion, when I import without renaming they all work, but as of late, all appear to work no problem. It seems like it was a block of time from roughly October 2009 through November 2010 where most all the files imported during this date demonstrate the problem. As for the second suggestion, I've tried both 8 and 16 bit TIFF and PSD file types selected in the editor preferences, with no luck.
    My next move has been to relocate the offending files out of their current location to another location (they are referenced, not managed). In doing this, I encountered what seems to be a file access or privelege error message, although about 20% of the files were moved, and in doing so, it seems to have solved the problem for those. But I don't have a good way of isolating the involved images outside of Aperture, and I don't want to move them with Finder anyways since that would ruin the referencing.
    This bug is getting so complicated I'm ready to throw my hands in the air and just go back to Lightroom. Aperture has so much potential, especially in regards to integration with ipods, iPads, other Macs, etc. but in the 4 months I've been using it, I have spent WAY more time addressing buggy issues like this one than the amount of time supposedly saved using Aperture instead of Lightroom.

  • In Mavericks OS X iMovie does not detect the camera

    Hi,
    Yesterday I had OS 10.8.7 and then I upgraded to OS Mavericks, and now when I try to import videos from my camcorder (new camcorder just purchased 4 weeks ago) iMovie does not seem to detect it.
    But iPhoto does detect it.
    The camera is Sony Handycam HDR-cx220
    Is there some setting that I need to set? Or am I screwed?
    Thanks!
    And if all else fails, am I able to go back to the old OS?

    For a list of iMovie '11 supported cameras see http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras/en/index.html?lang=en_US
    Can you see the files on your camera  in the Finder rather than from iMovie (either directly connected camera or via a memory card)?
    If yes your camera is acting as a separate volume and you can copy your clips onto your mac with the Finder then import the files into iMovie.  If the format is AVCHD there are some special considerations to take into account.

  • Computer does not support video conferencing???

    I just bought iSight for my iBook G3 on OS 10.3.9. When I turn the iSight on, it does not open iChat. When I open ichat, I can use iSight as a mic, but not for video. I opened iChat>Preferences>Video and found the message, "This computer does not support video conferencing." What does that mean? I tried the iSight on a different iBook and it works fine. System profiler recognizes the iSight plugged into the firewire port, and an iPod works in the firewire port, so the port works. I also tried iMovie>video, but no camera was found.
    What do I need to do to get iSight to capture video on my iBook?

    Hello Paul,
    See Apple's stated System Requirements for iChat AV 2.1.
    If your G3 is too slow to work with iChat AV, you can get a work-around by installing iChatUSBCam. (Use the free trial to be sure it does what you want.) There are different versions of iChatUSBCam for Panther and Tiger, so be sure you get the correct one,
    I recommend you repair permissions both
    b before AND after
    doing the installation. That should get you going.

  • Does the later 2009 MacBook support the Apple DVI to Video Adapter (s-video). I want to connect it to an old tv which does not support HDMI. Any suggestions?

    I have a late 2009 MacBook which I want to connect to an old LG tv. The tv does not support HDMI it only has the (red, while, and yellow) ports. Sorry I dunno the exact name for it.
    So I was thinking of using the Apple Mini DVI to Video Adapter (s-video), link below...
    http://store.apple.com/Catalog/dk/Images/M9319_screen.jpg
    But I'm afraid that the MacBook might not support the adapter.
    Can anyone give me a solution for this? Is there an alternative way of doing this? I'm kinda new to apple display adapters.

    The Late 2009 model 6,1 has a Mini DisplayPort not the Mini-DVI. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When the System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier.
    Composite is the name for the red, white and yellow RCA plugs on your TV or red, white and S-Video plugs. If you want to use the Composite input on your TV there’s no Mini DisplayPort to Composite. You’ll have to get a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_19?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field -keywords=mini+displayport+to+vga&sprefix=mini+Displayport+to and a VGA Adapter to TV S-Video RCA Out Cable for PC Video. http://www.amazon.com/VGA-Adapter-S-Video-Cable-Video/dp/B000Y7T5UU/ref=sr_1_7?s =electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1316369974&sr=1-7
    Only the Yellow plug or the S-Video plug for video will work. For sound you'll also need audio cables to the TV using a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs. You attach it from the headphone jack of your MacBook to the appropriate input plugs on your TV  http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13#/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_2_19?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=macboo k+audio+cable&sprefix=macbook+audio+cable&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Amacbook+audio+cable

  • IE11/Win 8.1 error 'Your client does not support opening this list in windows explorer'

    I hoping someone might be able to help with this frustrating issue.
    I work on a project where we are using various versions of on-line SharePoint (2007/O365).  In order to quickly drag and drop folders we need to often open the document libraries by using the 'open in windows explorer view'.
    Using the same device, on occassion this works.  But often it gives a rather unhelpful message 'Your client does not support opening this list in Windows Explorer'. 
    I've searched for this issue over the net and confirm that the sites are added to the 'trusted' sites area and that the 'remember you credientials' is checked on logging in.However, the searches do not seem to apply to IE11/Win8.1 or on-line version of sharepoint
    (the suggested hot fix is not suitable)
    Only this morning, using the same device I was able, for a short while to open in explorer view, and then for no apparent reason, it began to display the error message.  I had changed nothing regarding settings or even closed the browser.
    Do you have any support/ideas/fixes on how to resolve this.
    Many thanks
    val

    Hi Val,
    sometimes an answer can be found on the internet by typing the error message from your computer into your favourite search engine.
    eg.
    http://www.bing.com/search?q=your+client+does+not+support+opening+this+list+in+windows+explorer&form=IE10TR&src=IE10TR&pc=HPNTDFJS
    see
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/asiasupp/archive/2011/06/13/error-message-quot-your-client-does-not-support-opening-this-list-with-windows-explorer-quot-when-you-try-to-quot-open-with-explorer-quot-on-a-sharepoint-document-library-in-office-365-site.aspx
    follow the directions given above.... you need to add the domains to your Intranet sites list, not the Trusted sites list.
    Perhaps you already have it mapped to your intranet zone....in which case make sure that you have unchecked "Enable Enhance Protected Mode" on the Intranet  zone dialog in Internet Options.
    If this is happening 'randomly' on client machines, then users are probably changing their internet security settings in Internet Options. Ensure they are accepting the default.... Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default".
    Consult with your system administrators to find out if they are applying a custom security template for the Intranet zone... It may be removing the sharepoint domains from the client Intranet zone's domains lists.
    HTH.

  • AS I  FOUND OUT LATE, LION DOES NOT SUPPORT ROSETTA, WHICH SUPPORTS QUICKEN AND CLASSIC AOL, AND MANY OTHER APPS. CAN I TAKE LION AWAY AND GO BACK TO SNOW LEOPARD?

    I found out after the install of LION, that it does not support Rosetta, which runs Quicken and the classic AOL software and a myriad of other apps.
    Can I go back to Snow Leopard? Is there a way to retrieve my thousands of saved E mails, which are saved on my Mac?
    I still see the filing cabinet with my screen name but cannot get them to open.
    Please help! Lion may roar, but the fact it does not support apps like quicken means it purrs.

    I had the Apple store wiped out my hard drive and I restore my last hard drive downloard by first placing Snow leopard DVD in the DVD drive and holding "C" when turning on the machine then I follow the instructions. I am back on snow leopard and trying out two finance software to replace Quicken for mac 2007. I am trialing Quicken essentials and ibank. They are both compatable with LION. So when I am ready will download Lion again. Also, Micorsoft Office needs to be 2011 version for it to work on Lion

  • Adobe Creative Cloud does not support Bootcamp by Apple IOS operating system, but does work with boot camp Win 8.1 why"

    Adobe Creative Cloud does not support APPLE latest IOS operating system, but does allow Windows 8.1 to be accepted. This seems a shame to me, as
    Apple IOS is the leader in graphics, photography. The advertising states it is usable under both APPLE IOS and Microsoft 8.1 windows operating systems. Adobe Support Chat Sooraj tells me on 02/19/2015 that i must buy two computers to have it operate on both operating systems. Adobe will not support apple's Boot CAMP allowing both operating systems.
    i love the apple product and love the ADOBE Photoshop CC, but it simply does now work with an apple keyboard and a WiN operating system. .[email protected]  Adobe Creative Cloud

    In Thehatters defence, this was initially posted in the MacbookPro forum and then moved to Boot Camp,
    If you have any joy solving your trackpad device driver issue, feel free to post here (there might be a similar fix for my  wireless adapter device)

  • Cisco OS 2000.2.7 does not support MCS 7825I1 ?

    Hi Pros,
    I have a new installation coming up of CCM 4.1.3 & Unity 4.0.5
    Seems Cisco has sent wrong set of OS Cds for CCM. The Server is a IBM make (MCS 7825I1) with Prescott 3.4 CPU & 2GB RAM alongwith 2 * SATA 80GB HDD.
    When I insert Hardware Detection CD for 2000.2.7 it says "This OS version does not support the detected server. Remove the disk and press any key to reboot.
    My BoM says:
    CM4.1-K9-7825= SW CallMgr 4.1, MCS-7825 2
    MCS-7825-I1-IPC1 HW Only MCS-7825-I1 with 2GB RAM
    and SATA RAID
    2
    Can I install like this - Run IBM ServeRaid, Prep server, Insert Win2k cd, then after install run OS Upgrade 2000.2.7
    Will this work?
    Regards,
    Pratik

    i am not sure why the CPU speed should matter.......
    I don't know what to say, if you have the "a" hardware detection disk, this should work. I have never had a problem once i had the right media so i will step aside and wait to see if someone else can help.

  • I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and i know the Mini-display port does not support audio out but does it support HDMI out? or do i have to buy a Mini-display to DVI and then a DVI to HDMI adapters?

    I have a mid 2009 Macbook Pro and i know the Mini-display port does not support audio out but does it support HDMI out? or do i have to buy a Mini-display to DVI and then a DVI to HDMI adapters?

    Run MDP to HDMI for picture. Use a cable like this to run sound from your audio out on your Mac to your TV's audio in.  That's about all  you can do.
