Loading SONY Picture package software

Hi, this is my first post, so lets see how it all goes.
I have been a windows user and have just recently purchased my 24" imac.
All of my software/discs ext are windows compatable.
I have a SONY DCR-PC109E video camera. It cames with a SONY Picture Package Ver 1.0 disc. I cant load this disc onto the mac, the system doesnt recognise the format. I have tried everything and i'm now frustrated as ****.
Can anyone out there help me fix what is probably a basic proble??

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
A quick look at Google suggests that your video camera is a MiniDV camera with an iLink/Firewire connector. Simply connect the camera to your iMac using a 4pin-to-6pin Firewire cable (example) and load up iMovie to import the footage.

There is no need to use any other software; Sony provide that for Windows users you don't have any provided.

EDIT: Actually it appears the Firewire/iLink port is actually on a dock - do you have that?

  • WTF Sony Picture Package?

    My Sony Picture Package will not run even though i have
    installed Flash Player. It says I still need to install the program
    for it to run properly. Does anyone know how to solve this
    problem?

  • J'ai installé flash player 10.1.102.64 et picture package de Sony refuse toujours de s'exécuter

    je voudrais importer sur mon PC une cassette vidéo enregistrée sur un camescope Sony HC94E .A cet effet,j'ai installé le logiciel picture package ver.1.5.1, mais lorsque je clique sur le racourci du bureau,une fenêtre d'alerte de SonyPotl s'ouvre et m'adit que l'application ne peut s'exécuter que si j'ai d'abord installé Macromédia Flash Player.Ce que j'ai fait,ou cru faire, puisque dans le menu Démarrer, j'ai maintenant install_flash_player.exe que je n'arrive pas à exécuter et dans le panneau de configuration j'ai  Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX et Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin sans indication de taille, alors que la fenêtre d'alerte me commande toujours d'installer Macromédia Flash Player. Merci de me donner un coup de main

    This means that Flash Player is indeed installed on your system (v10.1.85.3 ActiveX for Internet Explorer, v10.1.102.64 plugin for Firefox).
    To make sure that Flash Player is indeed working, can you see the Flash animation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?  If yes, then I don't know why the SONY software does not recognize it; perhaps it is too old?
    If I were you, I would try the new SONY software that I linked in the earlier post.

  • Load new pictures to exiting events and more questions.

    When I load new pictures to iphoto how can I add them to existing events?
    When I create albums do the pictures I put in there get "copied" or are they just linking to the originals in events? I don't want to rack up all my memory creating albums.
    If I add, modify, or delete pictures in the events will it update my albums too?
    How can I resize a picture to load it too ebay or something?
    Where are the actuall files kept on the hard drive so I can copy them to a flash drive or something?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    When I load new pictures to iphoto how can I add them to existing events?
    You can't. You can move them once they are imported by drag and drop, or by flagging the pics and then selecting your target Event and going Events menu -> Add Flagged Photos to Selected Event.
    When I create albums do the pictures I put in there get "copied" or are they just linking to the originals in events? I don't want to rack up all my memory creating albums.
    They are simply referenced. A pic can be in 1,000 Albums and use no more disk space than if it were in 1. A pic cannot be in more than one Event without being duplicated. In any case, it's not your Memory that would get used up, it's your HD space.
    If I add, modify, or delete pictures in the events will it update my albums too?
    If you add pics to an Event they will not be automatically added to an Album unless it is a Smart Album. As the pics in an Album are referenced, if you edit the pic in an Event it's edited in the Album, if you trash pic from an Event it's removed from the Album etc.
    How can I resize a picture to load it too ebay or something?
    Select the pic in the iPhoto Window and use the File -> Export command. In the resulting window you have various options, including resizing the pic.
    Where are the actuall files kept on the hard drive so I can copy them to a flash drive or something?
    By default your Library is in your Pictures Folder. It's called the, er, iPhoto Library. It's a Package File. This is simply a folder that looks like a file in the Finder. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    Want to see inside: Right click on the Library icon and go 'Show Package Contents'. A Finder window opens with the Library exposed.
    Standard Warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 Only*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and 10.5* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • How do I load a picture from the clipboard (either Windows clipboard or Labview clipboard) into image data that can then be processed in Labview?

    I want to load a picture from the Windows clipboard (and if not possible, then from the Labview clipboard) into actual numerical image data so that it can be processed in lab view. When I'm at the main screen where I can add controls, I see a section of controls called "Vision" in the tool bar where all the different controls can can be added from. When I go to the control called "Image" and put that on my form, and then look at the flowchart/blockdiagram programing window to see what inputs and outputs it has, I only see one output, and no inputs. And when I right click on it, I see NO way to load an image into the Image control. PLEASE help me.
    Message Edited by Ben321 on 11-09-2008 04:32 PM

    Hi Ben,
    National Instruments has an image processing software called Vision and although I am not completely sure, I think the controls that you found in the control pallet are used in conjunction with the software. Depending on what kind of image processing you want to conduct in LabVIEW, you might want to consider purchasing that product.
    If cost is an issue, there are functions in LabVIEW which allows you to take in image files and process them. However, please keep in mind that the capabilities are limited.
    Images should be loaded onto LabVIEW not via the clipboard but through loading it from folders or directories. (There might be a way to and so if you find a way please let me know! I would like to know myself =D) If you open the function pallet by right clicking on the block diagram, in the programming folder you should find a directory called "Graphic and Sound". There, you'll find functions in which allows you to process images.
     In the "Graphic Type" directory there should be a function called Read JPEG file.vi. There are also others which allows you to read png and bmp files. Please note that there are functions which write as well. Set a file path on the block diagram and inside the "Grahic and Sound" there is a "Picture Function" directory and inside there, there should be a function called "Draw Flattened Pixmap.vi" That changes the image into a format where you can process on LabVIEW. Inside the "Picture Function" directory there are several functions which allows you to process the specified image. Play around with it and see how it goes. And don't forget to Write the file in the end to save any changes.
    I hope this helps

  • Iphoto is not able to load my pictures

    Hello I have a problem while running iphoto. The program is not able to load my pictures it gets stock searching for pictures and does not displays a single image, none of the commands respond
    Can you give an advice.
    How can I reinstall this program.
    as you can see I'm not an apple expert yet.
    ilamp   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Oh dear!
    Well I would start by deleting iPhoto and it's files. Do not touch the iPhoto Library folder found in the Pictures folder.
    To reinstall iPhoto...
    Navigate to /Applications and drag iPhoto to the trash
    Navigate to /Library/Receipts and drag all iPhoto receipts to the trash
    Navigate to ~/Library/Preferences and drag com.apple.iPhoto.plist to the trash.
    Look at this link and see what info pertains to you to reinstall iPhoto from your computer discs.
    How to restore your Apple software
    Mac OS X 10.4: Restoring applications from a Mac OS X 10.2 Software Restore disc
    Look all the way down the page for a downloadable version of Software restore to use in Tiger that works with your OS 10.2 computer specific software.
    Install iPhoto.
    Run Software Update and update iPhoto.
    Hopefull you will be able to open your iPhoto Library.

  • Picture package plug-in for CS5

    I put picture package onto my CS5 for Windows.  I figured out where to put the plug-in, but now whenever I start-up Photoshop, I get an error message that says, "Could not load Bigger Tiles module because it does not work with this version of photoshop."  Is there a way to correct this or at least get this error message to quit popping up everytime I start Photoshop?

    It sounds as though you've installed an old plug-in that used to be required to make Photoshop use bigger tiles in its display.  Photoshop CS5 no longer uses that method of requesting bigger tiles and has moved that configurability into the Edit - Preferences - Performance dialog.
    Find the file you added to the Photoshop CS5 installation called Bigger Tiles.8bx and delete it.
    It will probably be in one of these places:
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Plug-ins
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins
    Did you copy other files as well?  I ask because if you have copied other files that are inappropriate for this version of Photoshop you may have other problems down the line.

  • Trying to print picture package.

    I am trying to print a picture package ... once it is ready, I hit print and nothing happens.   I can  print a single pic, and could print a package last week.. I have tried again, and again, and am getting frustrated.  

    Though I can't tell you how to fix your problem, you can use a work-around to print your picture photo.
    You can easily save your picture package as a pdf file which you can print at your convience.
    install any print-to-pdf application.The application would register itself as a printer and whenever sent a page to print, would convert and save it as a pdf
    prepare your picture package and print it using the print-to-pdf application
    load the saved pdf file and print it
    Adobe has its own print-to-pdf application too. http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/print-to-pdf.html

  • Edit in Photoshop doesn't load a picture

    Hello,
    Last night I was able to edit my photos in PS5 from LR3 by using the Edit in Photoshop menu item.  Nothing that I know of has changed, other then I've finished importing my entire photo library, I can't anymore.  When I select 'Edit in Photoshop" it loads PS5 but it doesn't load the picture I've selected for editing.  Is there a way I can get some logging/debug info out of PS5 or (even better) a known fix for this issue?  I'm up to date with all my software (LR3, PS5, OS X 10.6.3). 

    I posted a reply a week or so ago here about this. In short, you need to delete the PS preferences file and let PS recreate it. You will lose any custom settings in PS that you have but you can always edit the preferences file and add it back or just redo it from within PS.
    From http://www.gballard.net/psd/troubleshootpurgepsd.html
    Keyboard shortcuts to reset Photoshop ImageReady preferences (though I prefer to manually purge preferences to rule out preferences when troubleshooting Photohop crashing, freezing, locking up, Unexpectedly Quits):
    • To delete and re-create the preferences files, start Photoshop or ImageReady and, as it starts, hold down Control+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS), and then click Yes to the prompt "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?" or "Delete the Adobe ImageReady Settings file?" SOURCE: Adobe "techdocs/312917.html."
    If corrupted files are associated with opening or saving Photoshop files from over across a network disks:
    • Adobe Tech Document: Photoshop, networks, and removable media (7.x and CS2):
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
    • In essence: Copy the file from the server to your local workstation disk, Open the file from your local disk, Save the file to your local disk, Copy the closed file back to the server — never Open or Save Photoshop files across a network.

    I have a desktop machine windows 7 based with CS5 loaded and working without problem. I have recently purchased a laptop running 8.1 windows.  I have loaded the cs5 package onto the laptop and it appears to work but when I try to update, although  I am being told there are updates it attempts to download the update but then tells me there is a problem and to quit and try again later.. I have tried a number of times to download the updates but itkeeps telling  me to quit and try later. what is wrong please?

    There could be a 32 bit vs 64 bit issues-is the old machine a 32 bit? and what is the new machine as far as 32/64 bit. I am not sure now if CS5 has in the help menu of the PS app the selection to update within PS if so that might work. I know that the Creative cloud app for installs updates  etc has caused me much consternation  over the last couple few years. Last it could be something like your Software firewall settings or  anti-virus anti malware programs. I know that updating the infamous adobe flash that Internet Explorer pop ups setting and having AV turned on as opposed to off can interfere or plain break the update ability

  • Where do I find Picture Package?

    I just heard that Picture Package that used to be in CS3 (Automate>Picture Package), is still available as an extra in Bridge CS4. Can anyone tell me how I can load this. I have all of the DMG files from CS4 but don't know where or how to get the Picture Package extra. Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Picture package plug-in might be in wrong folder in cs4

    My problem is this.  I successfully installed the Picture Package plugin for PS CS4 but then ran into a problem with the computer and had to go to an earlier restore point.  After restoring the computer I needed to reinstall Picture Package. When I installed the plug-in I must have accidentally installed it in the wrong folder. I've repeatedly tried to reinstall it from the exe file but I get the message "not enough memory, or don't have write privileges."  I suspect one can't install Picture package twice.  But now my problem is that I don't know into which folder Picture Package installed so that I can move it to the right folder.  Or do I need to unistall the plug-in and try again.  But how do I do that?

  • My iPhone 4S has stopped receiving iMessages, cannot send/load any pictures over whatsapp, cannot join the wifi in my house anymore. What has happened to my iPhone i haven't made any changes?

    My iPhone 4S has stopped receiving/sending iMessages, cannot send/load any pictures over whatsapp and cannot join the wifi in my house anymore.
    Essentially all the things I use my phone for have now stopped working. I constantly have 3G connected (even though i dont want to use it, i want to connect to the wifi in my house) but still when I try to download/ send a picture over whatsapp it comes up with an error message saying the server is unverified, or something equally ridiculous.
    I deleted the app so i could reinstall it (as if that would help), but the app store is started saying "unable to connect", despite 3G, so that bright idea died out pretty sharpish.
    Whenever i try to turn on iMessage, it asks for my Apple ID password, which I know I've typed in correctly because I reset the **** thing about 4 times due to it apparently being "incorrect". Even so, it repeatedly asks for the password over and over as soon as I've entered it, saying it was "unable to connect" before a final "incorrect password" message pops up just to add an extra smack of annoyance.
    I haven't changed a single setting on my iPhone whatsoever. It just suddenly started spiralling into what is now £28/month-worth of pure frustration.
    I don't even have any music or photos on it as I had to free up 3.5GB of space on the **** thing to allow it to update, naively thinking that would solve the problem, but alas it did not.
    I have seen a few questions posted like this one, usually just one of the problems I have, but I seem to have rounded up the whole bunch (lucky me). None of the previously posted questions have received any replies.
    Can some please help me! Honestly, if i see another "unable to..." or "unverified source" pop up again I'll probably smash the thing against the side of my house.
    Cheers.

    On your iPad, go to [Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings] Once that is done, re-connect your iPad to your wifi network.
