Imovie recognizing camera, but not recording

I have a sony HD videocamera. I plug it into my macbook pro with a firewire. Imove recognizes the camera, even rewinds the tape, but does not record. AND the viewing window of Imovie, where I should see the tape being recorded, is BLUE.
Can anyone help me? Thanks.

I have the same issue but it just occurred to me that I am switching back and forth between analog and digital tapes and my Sony HDD. I'm going to look at Sony's menu under Standard Set and make sure I'm using the right setting for iLink CONV. It should be off. Check your setting as well. On my Digital camera, I need to turn this on . . .

  • Audition CC Recognizing Mic, but Not Recording

    I have a Rode NT1-A mic that I have been using on Adobe CC Mac for sometime now, and up until a couple of days ago I had no issue. When I set up the hardware, it finds the mic. When I navigate back to the Multitrack screen, I am able to select the mic for the track input. However once I hit R and I to record and monitor,  I get absolutely nothing. No metering at all. I go as far as to record something and still, I get utter silence, it's not recording anything. I  am not sure how to fix this, as literally a couple of days ago, I was using this same mic, interface, and XLR to record. I appreciate any/all help.

    You haven't said what the interface is, but has the phantom power got switched off? That would stop it working whilst it still appeared as a legitimate source...

    iPhoto pulls off new videos from my iPhone 5 just fine.  Does iPhoto automatically come up when you connect your iPhone?  If it does, you should see your iPhone under "Devices" in iPhoto and then can select the videos to transfer (select, then Import Selected), though that should happen automatically.

  • IMovie recognizes camera, but no longer the clips

    Everything used to work perfectly: attach Sony Handycam HDR-XR520, iMovie recognizes camera, clips and simply import.
    Not anymore.
    Since last week iMovie sees the camera, but not the clips. They are there, but not visible in the Import-window.
    Not changed anything in the settings.
    Has anybody faced a similar issue also? What is the solution?
    Many thanks.

  • CR2 files open from one camera, but not the other in CS2

    Running Mac with CS2. My camera raw files shot with my lovely Canon 5D open and can be viewed in bridge and in photoshop, but NOT the camera raw from my brand new Canon powershot G9. They are both producing CR2 files. I can see the images in the bridge browser window, but when I double click to open I get a dialogue box that says, "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." I have the 3.7 plug in installed. Please, some god or goddess of photoshop out there, show me the error of my ways!

    Walt,
    I will answer your questions to the best of my ability. But hopefully others who are better at this than I am will offer their help as well. So, here goes.
    1. Everyone has their preferred method of using Bridge. In the Photoshop preferences I have not checked the box to have bridge start automatically. Although I use Bridge most of the time, there are occasions when I don't want to use it. So I prefer to start my Photoshop session by starting Bridge first, and then double-click on an image in Bridge to have it opened in Photoshop. In the Bridge preferences, I have checked the "Double-Click Edits Camera Raw Settings in Bridge", and I like working that way.
    2. I have seen several people comment about having this problem. And occasionally it will develop after you have been using Bridge/Photoshop for a while. The only thing I can suggest is for you to hold down the Ctrl key while you start Bridge. A dialogue will appear that will allow you to reset your preferences. There are three options and you should choose all three. I know, you haven't had it installed very long, but this "could" be the problem. One guy I talked with said that he had to do it several times before it fixed the problem.
    3. You indicated that you downloaded Camera Raw 4(5). What does that mean? Did you download version 4.5, which is the latest version? And, did you follow the installation instructions that were on the download page? The new plug-in must be put in the exact directory specified, replacing the old version that is already there. The old version cannot be put in a sub folder. You might as well get rid of it. You don't need it anymore. And, again, it has to go into the specific folder designated in the instructions. After you have done that, in Photoshop goto Help/About Plug-ins and click on Camera Raw. It should only be listed once, and when you click on it you should get a dialogue that will tell you what version you have installed.
    4. After I installed CS3, when I inserted a card into my card reader I was presented with the normal Windows options. One of the options I was given was to download using Bridge. I chose that option and indicated to always use that option. I haven't had any problems with it since. But if that option isn't there, you can open Bridge and click on the File menu. There is an option to download images from your camera. It has worked well for me.

  • IPhoto 2 recognizes camera but not pictures that are on it

    I just purchased a Casio Exilim S-600 digital camera. It came with its own PhotoLoader software and it recognizes the camera but does not recognize the photos. The PhotoLoader also works with OS 9 so I would prefer to use iPhoto. When I plug the camera into my computer, iPhoto 2 opens and recognizes the camera but says that there are no pictures on it. I have a SD 512 MB memory card in it and there are photos on there but they're not being picked up by iPhoto. Is there some way that I can get these photos off the camera and into iPhoto?
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hi, Jezabel. Since there are two places where the camera can store pictures — the SD card and its own small built-in storage memory — it stands to reason that there may be a way for you to select, on the camera before connecting it to the Mac, which location is presented to Image Capture. If this is true, then the camera's manual is the place to find out about it. If it isn't true, then that is undoubtedly why the camera isn't listed as compatible with iPhoto: Casio's own software may be specially designed to import photos from both sources at once, but Image Capture and iPhoto don't expect to see two undifferentiated sources of pictures on the same connection at the same time.

  • Static between Apogee One and Logic 9...When track is armed but not recordi

    The static only happens when i sing into the mic or strum the guitar. It begins to happen when i have input monitoring enabled or the track armed (R). It slowly creeps up after a few minutes of NOT recording and just having the track armed. I can make multiple passes at recording and it will eventually go away or...i have to quit logic and apogee and restart but if i leave the track armed and not record continuously its back! Its like a terrible crackle and its as loud as the instrument im trying to record.

    I dont have an FTP at this time and i tried uploading to steven slate drums but havnt been on there for a while and wasnt able to ...Too bad apples forum doesnt allow mp3s or wavs

  • Pics showing on my camera but not in the Aperture import browser

    There are ten or so pictures at the end of a day's shooting which are still showing on my camera but when the SD card is plugged into the Mac, according to Aperture they don't exist.
    Camera is Fuji X100, card is SanDisk Extreme Pro 16GB.
    I've searched for answers in Discussions and I've seen filters mentioned, but there don't seem to be any in operation.
    Can anyone help? Many thanks!

    UPDATE  - I've sorted it. I unchecked 'Do not import duplicates', and they all appeared. They had obviously been already imported into another project and I hadn't realised.
    Sorry!

  • Audigy 2zs notebook - Can hear but NOT record effect of Graphic Equalizer

    Dear people,
    Audigy 2zs notebook card, using with sonar-le to record (and also with Audacity).
    I can record all I play with my soft synths, and mic voice, perfectly. Various tracks simultneously.
    Playback is also great.
    I use sonar-le in Asio 2-Mode, and MME and all works good.
    HOWEVER, I bring up the Creative equalizer, and I enable it, it makes a NOTORIOUS difference.. I can enable it while I am recording, before, or after.
    So I record a track as usual, but I enable the equalizer, and I am FINDING-OUT that I can not seem to be able to RECORD the effect of the creative EQUALIZER!
    Even though I can hear it in and out, big difference, the track recorded wave continues to record as if it does not see the equalizer at all.
    I have tried all available inputs and many many things, but I just can not get the eq. effects to RECORD.
    I have two speakers connected to the dongle that attaches to the notebook card... I have also tried using headphones, directly connected to card, and all I can think. I tried also mme mode.
    I also tried audacity and same. Can't get the recording to be like what I hear with the headphones.
    Why would this be? How can I solve the problem?
    Thanks a lot!

    Whoops!? That sequencer/recording application "Cubasis VST 4" comes packaged with Audigy 2ZS Platinum Pro but not with the Notebook soundcard. A similar product Cubasis LE comes with X-Fi Elite Pro.
    I haven't seen any details of the internal layout/architecture of the sound card, but I don't think that would help you in terms of some new configurations for recording.
    In terms of recording capability, since there is only one input port with the NOtebook card, you are of course fairly limited in terms of connectivity, unless you have an external mixer (if you are talking about recording two things at the same time).
    However, the audio quality of the Notebook card is certainly good enough to record very good quality audio with S/N, THD etc. My opinion is that people spend way too much time fussing about specs, noise etc. where in reality, most external transducers (mics, guitars etc.) always limit the recorded quality (unless you have really good professional recording gear and you have a lot of experience.
    I've heard outstanding quality recorded music made on recording gear with much poorer specs than the Notebook card.
    Best thing with your Notebook card is do what you've been doing. Use it and experiment and concentrate on the music generation itself.
    Thanks for the reply!
    I gather that the application may not be downloadable, specially if it is third-party. I do have the Synth effect, though that I can plug into Sonar.. I like the hardware enabled effects, though, specially since my music playing/recording system is a little complex.
    Yes, I do have external hardware mixers, and though there is only the mic/line input, that's not too bad since this card has MANY internal inputs and outputs that I DO USE. All? of my instruments and music is now software based..Only the Mic is external. That's why the hardware synth of the 2zs laptop is so attracti've.. It does not bear on cpu or data... That's why I asked about architecture info orient myself.
    Also, I may be wrong, but I read that many of the hardware capabilities of the 2zs notebook card are no longer there on the newer cards... That effects and other things are now mostly software based? Is that so?...Can I use two cards on the laptop, the 2 zs and the express slot one simultneously and have more inputs/outputs?
    I am still interested in all practical possibilities, and I do like the Creative soundcards.
    The great thig is that you told me that the Eq can not be recorded, so that's very important to me.. I can still record it, though out into a second laptop via the headphone jack. But I will try the VST's I have here first and see how they feel and sound.
    It really amazes me, though, that I can hear the effect, but there's no way to record it.
    Maybe a new driver could do it's
    Thanks and best wishes!

  • HT204302 i bought a used ipod and it is reconized as a camera , but not by itunes, and it shows the cord and picture of itunes logo on screen, and thats it?

    I bought a used ipod touch and my computer recognizes the camera, but it doesn't show the ipod connected? The screen on the ipod shows the cord with an arrow pointing to itunes logo and thats it?

    Then you have not entered Recovery Mode...
    Try again... Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
    Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.

  • How to have a SFC active but not record labour??

    My latest challenge from the shop floor is how to have an SFC still be active without anybody being laboured onto it (Visiprise 4.2)
    We have several processes that require product to be placed in an oven for a long period of time, sometimes several days. Our production staff "sign on" to the SFC whilst they prepare the oven and load it. They then "sign off" and work on something else. When the process is completed someone (not always the same person) "signs on" to the SFC removes the product etc and the "completes" the operation.
    This gives us the actual labour touch time and the actual cycle time , the problem is that when the first operator signs off the SFC it changes it status back to "In Queue" which then show in the WIP reports as being available for work, which it isn't.
    So, is there anyway of signing off the SFC but  not changing status to "In Queue" ?? That way it will not show in the WIP reports as being available for work and will stop our operators getting so confused .
    Thanks for any help that you can give.
    Kev

    Kev,
    In any case you cannot have SFC in work but without any assigned user who is meant performing some actions over that SFC.
    You can create some "dummy" user account and start SFC with that user each time you start heating the unit in the oven. To take the unit out of the oven, the second operator will Labor On against the SFC and perform Complete.
    As another option, you can play with Special operation: create a router of one operation corresponding to the action of heating and use the same resource of the oven; the second step is Return(Next). Each time "dummy" user starts an SFC at the operation, the SFC will be taken out of work from the production router. When SFC is completed here by the second user after Labor On, the SFC should be returned to the next step of production router (though I have not tested this way of disposition).
    Anyway, such "cheating" with the basic functionality will be rather intricate - so you might consider requesting a customization.
    Regards,
    Sergiy

  • Allowing camera access, but, not recording

    When accessing my Flex 4.5 LCCS application from the web browser,

    using a lumix lx7 p&s camera.  took several videos.  they playback ok in the camera.  however, when i insert the memory card into my mac the files are not there.
    all of the filenames for the jpegs are consecutive like p1010661, 62, 63.  the missiing video files do not have similar filenames.  their filenames appear as 352/356, 353/396, etc.
    have never had this happen before.  have never seen a filename like that.  cannot locate those video files in finder or in LR.
    FOR ANYONE LOSING SLEEP OVER THIS ?:
    guess i never tried importing movie files into a mac.  gotta import through imovie.

    I do to have the same problem. I have several video-files that meet the specs but iTunes won't let me transfer them to my iPod Touch. I also downloaded some podcasts from iTunes and even they won't transfer to my iPod Touch. It just says that they are not supported although they are!
