Kodak Zi8 doesn't connect to iPad2 camera connection kit

Hi,
i have a Kodak Zi8 video camera and want to copy my movies to a iPad2 using the camera connection kit using buildin USB Kable of the Zi8.
Unfortunately the iPad shows a messagebox "Dieses Zubehör benötigt zu viel Strom" (accessory need to much current !?).
How can i connect my video camera to the iPad2?
Yours Rüdiger

You won't be able to because the video camera requires more power than the iPad can provide.
To transfer your videos to the iPad, you might try connecting the video camera to your computer and importing them into iTunes. From there, you can select the videos and create iPad-compatible versions (under the "Advanced" menu, select "Create IPAD Version". Then transfer the iPad version of the video to your iPad by syncing.

Ipad2 camera connection kit.

I have an iPad 2 and a canon eos 350d camera. Will this camera work with the camera connection kit?

It has for other people. On the camera you just need to set Communication to 'PRINT/PTP' (it should be on the last of the five setting 'headings' on the camera's settings menu) :

HT4101 Why doesn't "Connected 5--1 camera connector kit" show SD card pics and videos?

Connected the 5-1 kit to charging port of I-Pad 2...screen changes to one including "import" button....But when I hit that it says "no photos to import".....I do have photos and AVI video files on it... What gives?

The pics and videos were put on the card by one of those "trail cams". The videos go into the DCIM folder and the photos go into the DCIM/100MFCAM DIRECTORY (sub folder inside DCIM) according to the manual. I had uploaded the pics/video from my desktop to the SD card just to test the card reader given to me. When I did, I was able to read the videos but not the still photos (jpeg's).

IPad camera connector kit error

Hey everyone. I've got an RF presentation remote connected to my camera connection kit via USB. The device works flawlessly but after the iPad sits idle for about a minute I get an error message IOUSBDevice: The connected device is not supported. Is there any way to prevent this error message from popping up? Like I said the device works great. I just don't want the message to pop up. Thanks for any help.

Probably not. It's not supported and is likely just a fluke that it works. That camera connection kit is just meant for cameras so anything else that works in there is a bonus.
Is your connector a 30 pin or lightning connector? If lightning, iOS7 brought with it software that looks for signed chips in devices plugged into the device. All lightning cables have chips in them and if a manufacturer has paid for permission to make a cable, their chip broadcasts a recognized signal. If the company hasn't gotten permission then thier chip isn't signed and that message is one that pops up. Devices usually still work, there is just that message. (this whole signed chip thing stems from people using knock off chargers that malfunction and in at least one case, killed a person)

HT4236 Have ipad2 & iPad camera connection kit - still doesn't download photos on SD card

Plugged in SD card from camera to a newly purchased ipad2 via the new iPad camera connection kit and it will not download these photos. Tried the same on a friends ipad2 and it works fine. Do I need to download a new app or just update the photo booth that I already have?

It doesn't go into photobooth. WHen you plug in the CCK and SD card it should open the photos app all on its own, open the card and then there'll be the select dialogue where you tap on the photos you want to import.
Try resetting your iPad. Hold down the home and sleep keys, past when you see the red slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
Since it works on another ipad, you know there's photos on the card and they're formatted right, along with the CCK working, so the issue must be your iPad. Sometimes there's a glitch and resetting helps that.

I recorded 1 hour and 6 minutes of footage on my Kodak Zi8 Camera in WVGA mode. When I connect it to my Macbook Pro, the .MOV file that it creates is only 59 mintues. I can still view the full footage on the camera itself. I just can't export it. HELP!!!!

So it is cutting off the end at 59 minutes? How large is the file that is being exported? You may be running up against a file size limitation.

My IPad 2 doesn't recognize the camera connection kit

My ipad2 does nit recognize my camera connection kit. Actually the kit is recognized but when I put the chip or plug in the USB camera cable nothing happens. I'm using a Sony Dsc-Tx10 camera. It worked before but now it doesn't. Please help. I'm trying to upload my pictures to my iPad.
Thank you,
Josie

Check it to make sure the card and tray are free of dirt or dust. (You can blow into the empty slot to clean out any dust.)
Put the SIM card back in the tray, and slide the tray back into the slot.

Canon mini Disk camera doesn't work if external drive connected

A long story.      Anyway, I have a MacPro Intel Dual Core 266 Ghz with 5 Gbs RAM, 4 internal hard drives HD1~HD4 (HD1 OSX 250 and three 500Gb) and two external HD5 (two partitions~HD5 & Time Machine Backups) and HD6 (1 Tb each).
I've been using a Canon mini DV video camera FV-M10 (Firewire 400) for live video (Skype/iChat) and also for importing video into Final Cut Express, After Effects or iMovie up until a few days ago. Both "live" video and from the recorded mini cassette tape. Then all of a sudden not one of the software recognized my camera anymore. I tried both Firewire 800/400 and USB2 connections using a few different cables. In Skype...(sometimes) it automatically shows the name FV-M10 in the camera slot, but the screen is black. No, I checked if I left the cover on. I checked my Sony WX-5 digital camera and see if that is recognized. Yes, both pics and AVCHD videos are seen using the USB connection.
The problem started like this.
I was downloading a file. Had to work for an hour and when I came back upstairs. I noticed that the screen was frozen.   So, I shut the Mac down. And when I started it again, well nothing happened except for a grey screen. A half~sized cursor was stuck up in the top left. But, my mouse also had a cursor which was movable.
It wouldn't even recognize the OSX Install Disk holding down "C" or "Option". Only starting with "Shift" held down, "Safe Boot" could I use the basics like Mail, Safari, Firefox.   NO sound and no video. Tried a few times as well as cleaned my OSX HD1 hard drive and re-installed from "Safe Boot" mode".   So, I had it sent into Apple Tokyo for repairs.   Apple put in a new board.     Great!      I came it back in two days.   I cleaned the OSX hard drive and re-installed Mac OSX with the up-dates as well and got some of my main backed up stuff Mail, bookmarks, address book etc.   It started fine.     But, when I went to use Skype, iChat, iMovie or Final Cut Express they still couldn't recognize my camera. I had been using the Canon FV M10 camera for a few years with both external hard drives on. There were never any problems until just before I sent it into the shop.
There was only one way to use my camera. Un-Plug the external HD6. Then the camera functions fine. but remember I had been using this camera with both HD's for around two years without any problems.
Notes on symptoms: and what actions I took.
Front connections: FW400 Canon camera. FW800 (Tried connecting HD6)
Rear Connections: USB2 1) MidiMan 2 x2   2) mouse 3) Canon Printer
                               FW400 HD5 FW800 (tried HD6)
With HD6 Connected.
iMovie 11 9.02 : Start iMovie O.K. No camera on.   Turned camera "on" then "No Camera Connected" notice came up.   (did this a few times)   Turned camera off.   Quit iMovie.
2nd start: Camera On.   iMovie freezes.   Spinning Colored beach ball.   I then Force Quit Option-Apple-ESC
iMovie shows (not responding) When I turn off the camera. (not responding) disappears and iMovie is working again. But, "No Camera Connected" shows again. Quit!
Un-Plugged (Ejected) HD6.
When I un-plugged HD6,    (tried both the front and rear connections).   iMovie still on.
"No Camera Connected" I Quit iMovie.
Re-start iMovie: Camera on… Live video and record miniDV tape can both be seen.
Skype: Both live video and mini DV tape recording even plays back over Skype screen.
iChat (same as Skype) O.K.
Since Apple replaced the board 661-3932 Card Video, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT which cost just about $X00.00 (¥XX,000).   I assume that they don't also check all the connections etc. I mean from the connector to the video board.
The call to Apple Tokyo today.
Just talked to Apple (Mac) Tokyo about my computer problem. Seems like they're trying to squeeze their way of more repairs by saying I have a hard drive configuration problem.   But it doesn't seem like that!   I worked with it 2~3 hours today...and here is the basic problem.
I've used the Canon FV M10 mini DV camera with Skype, iChat, iMovie and FCEx for few years (HD6) is over a year old-the most recent add on) with no problem.    With both external 1Tb hard drives. And Apple said that it's a 3-party problem. (different makers etc.) But, it's NOT!     Yes, they put in a new board.   But, I'd say the problem is from the connection (where I plug the cable into the Mac) to the board.
When I connect HD6 (1Tb ext hard drive).   FW 800 (either back or front connection) the video camera doesn't work in Skype, iChat, iMovie, or Final Cut Express.     If I eject and Un-Plug HD6 all of them work fine. The camera "live" or the camera playing back the mini DV tape video.
Wouldn't this be a problem between the connections (front & back) to the new video board? Or does anyone have an answer.   Apple seems to have said, "We can't help you".   Please someone help! thanks

+My mini isn't responding to startup commands like "C" or "D" from the keyboard.+
You'll need a wired usb keyboard for these commands to work -- and the Apple Aluminum keyboard won't work either.
But just about any PC usb keyboard will work. Alt maps to Option and Win-key to CMD.

Ichat doesn't log all the time/poor camera connectivity

My ichat doesn't always log on. Sometimes it will after using the computer for thirty minutes or so and sometimes not at all(same is true with AIM). However, my firefox and safari both work all the time so it's not an internet connection problem. I'm using an ethernet cable for service. I was wondering if there's a setting or something I need to change...
Also when it does finally connect my isight camera (external) does not always connect to talk with other people. It has worked before rarely but when it's connected the image is extremely choppy and blurry; however, the sound is usually pretty clear and fluid. How can I fix this?
Thanks.

Hi
For your logging on problem
Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443.
Log back in again.
For your blurry problem
Set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.

Cannot find other than "Camera Roll" in my PC when my iPad2 is connected to Window 8.1 via USB to my Lenovo PC

When my iPad2 is connected to Window 8.1 via USB to my Lenovo PC, I can not find Albums other than the Camera Roll. Is there a method by which I can make other albums visible to my PC? I am trying to copy them manually into a portable harddisk so all my photos and Videos in my iPad and iPhone will be backed up in one location for convenient access of all my photos & Videos.

Use windows Import utitlity is the only other way I do believe

Why doesn't my VGA adapter work to connect my iPad2 to my projector. I haven't had any problems in the past?

Why doesn't my VGA adapter work to connect my iPad2 to my projector. I haven't had any problems in the past?

Hey MarieF-D,
Thanks for the question. The following article provides basic troubleshooting steps that may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: About Apple Digital AV Adapters
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4108
Troubleshooting
If you encounter an issue using the Apple Digital AV Adapter or VGA Adapter:
Disconnect and reconnect the adapter from the iOS device and display.
Connect directly to the TV, projector, or external display using a known-good VGA or HDMI cable.
Remove any VGA or HDMI extension cables or converters.
Note that accessories that convert a VGA or HDMI signal to other video formats (DVI, Composite, Component) are not supported.
Ensure that you are using the latest version of iOS. Some Apple Digital AV Adapters require iOS 5.1 or later.
Note: When using an Apple Digital AV Adapter manufactured before early 2012 with iPad (3rd generation), you may see the "This accessory is not supported" alert. Dismissing the alert will allow you to use the adapter.
For optimal performance, you may need to adjust the video resolution or settings for your display. If your display offers an "auto detect" or "factory default" setting, you may be able to use these options to optimize video resolution and display.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Kodak ZxD & iPad camera connection kit

I've been very happy with the quality of video and ease of use of the ZxD with my iMac. It is a seamless process to transfer video off my ZxD which shoots native .mov into FCP. To my surprise I've not been able to directly load video shot with my ZxD via my camera connector kit onto my iPad.
Looking for suggestions of what I might not be doing correctly. What I do is shoot video, pull the SD card from my ZxD, put it into the SD card connector, plug it into my iPad, my iPad recognizes the video, asks to transfer everything or just selected (I've tried both), I transfer (my iPad asks to delete or keep video off the SD, I've tried both) and what I get is the b/w video camera MOV image - which is an empty file.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

It's late and I hope I can shed a little light on this subject without mucking it up.
One thing about h.264... Not all h.264 are created equal. Apple follows the h.264 standard set by MPEG ((LA) Motion Picture Electronic Group) who own the rights to this codec and set the standards for the h.264 codec. Kodak is probably using an open source h.264 codec making it a non-standard h.264 format. The .mov extension on you videos doesn't mean the camera is using the same h.264 that QuickTime uses. And doesn't mean it's native video file. .Mov is just a video container that can hold a verity of video codecs and formats. Think of a .Mov like a glass that holding water. One glass can have drinkable water (standard) and the other glass is holding undrinkable water ( non-standard). Both are glasses of water.
I have the Flip camera and it to uses the h.264 codec. I get the same results importing the videos with CCK that you do. I can import the video into the iPad using the CCK, but the won't play in the photo app. The work-a-round is to import the video using the GoodReader app. GoodReader will play Flip videos on the iPad. Other apps that work that I know of are AirVideo and FileBrowser. You might want to try GoodReader...
I have imported both with the CCK and GoodRead video sizes of 720p and 1080p videos with no problems.
(I hope your not importing the Kodak video into FCP. H.264 is not an editing format, it's a delivery format. You should convert the videos to an editing format that FCP supports, for example ProRes.)

I bought a camera connection kit. First time it worked fine, using the USB connector, but now neither the USB or SD connector works. The iPad shows a connector is attached, but Photos doesn't open. Any ideas? thanks

If you have not done so, try exiting the Photo app (and maybe more apps if you have a lot open) from the Open Apps List and see if a discount/reconnect opens the app. If that does not work, try powering down the iPad and test. If it is still not working try a hard reset by pressing both Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time until the Apple graphic appears, ignoring the Slide to Power Off button.

Olympus xz-1 camera when connected to ipad2 with supplied ubs cable into apple usb to 30pin adapter it prompts the ipad to display a message like " this device draws too much power to charge" and then i can go no further!

olympus xz-1 camera when connected to ipad2 with supplied usb cable into apple usb to 30pin adapter it prompts the ipad to display a message like " this device draws too much power to charge" and then i can go no further! if i take the card from the camera and put it into the card to 30pin adapter and plug that into the ipad no problems. if i connect the camera with supplied usb cable to desktop imac , no problems. if i connect my olympus slr to the ipad using its usb cable into the apple usb to 30pin , no problem . very frustrating , i don't want to always have to take the card out of the camera to down load photos to the ipad2,IDEAS?

I'd ask that on the iPad forum.
