Mini camera help for dad

Hello to the mac family,
Once again I turn to the pros for help. I bought my son a Philips mini camera. It says PC and i was hoping it woul show up as an external device on the mac. It didn't....Now i would like to buy him an cheap (under$30.00U.S. mini camera. These are jut little keychain items. I just wanted to give him something that he could carry around with his keys. I know these are not spectacular devices but I wanted to give him a little gift that could be fun.
I have searched like crazy for a small camea that will ork on mac...Anyone have any suggestions? I have really searched on the net and so far can't find one.
I as always appreciate any suggestions.........mGb............Jim

Hi Jim,
I have never used one but have you looked at the iKey....supposedly works with Mac and is USB.
Found a link for it on eBay @ iKey....but you'll have to be the judge at $11.99 + shipping if it is anything good enough to use.
It also has a link to the driver needed for Mac and appears to be supported through 10.2 which it appears that you are using.
perhaps someone will pop in that has used it and can recommend or not,
best,

Help for Dad - No Video Input

My dad has a G4 tower. He uses it minimally for email and surfing the web.
When he boots up the display shows:
"No video input"
With a camera icon and 2 faces and a blinking question mark.
Any reason for this to pop up out of no where?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
The only thing I can think of is that he's added an application to his startup / login items (or it added itself on installation) that requires a video capture device. Under OS X 10.4 the login items can be maintained via the Accounts system preference. Failing that, could it be an iChat preference (Auto Start?) he's tinkered with?

Hi emancabanlit,
For nay issues with the camera on your iPad, refer to the article below to sort it out. Start with force closing the app as well as restarting your device. If it is still having issues then you may want to take your iPad to an Apple Retail Store or and Authorized Service Provider.

I get a black screen on the camera app on my iPod touch? Is there a solution? Resetting only helped for a few days, problem comes back.

Camera works, with the side buttons it takes pictures.
Although I'm not able to see on the screen.

First try a restore from backup
If problem still occurs try a restore to factory defaults/new Pod.
If still occurs likely a hardware problem and an appoitment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can Anyone Help me Use iMovie to View a Video Mini-Camera

Hello,
I have a simple tiny "mini camera" (aka pinhole camera) with an analog video signal and I understand that if I run it through an analog to digital converter like the Pinnacle Studio MovieBox, I can view it in iMovie. I tried it, and was able to get iMovie to acknowledge that the camera is connected, but I wasn't able to view the image.
Any ideas?

Hi Andrew. Thanks for getting back to me. I'll make sure I post in the relevant forum. Thanks for the advice.
The company will act as a kind of freelance design agency bringing skilled people together with people looking for those services. I would like the site, including the video, to be up by Monday-Tuesday ideally. And the main reason for this is so that it showcases what we are about to any prospective freelancers and creative talent that we are in the process of contacting so they have a clear idea about the company and what we are looking for. I have no intention of dealing with clients on a commercial basis yet without any kind of infrastructure in place in terms of trusted personnel beforehand. I agree that would certainly be questionable.
Thanks again for your reply.

Can I transfer my email in outlook on my macbook pro (windows for mac) onto my ipad mini?Help!?

can I transfer my email in outlook on my macbook pro (windows for mac) onto my ipad mini?Help!?

Outlook is an email client and that does not indicate if your email is POP or IMAP. If you have an IMAP email account, all of your emails actions will automatically sync across your devices. If you have POP, it does not work that way.
If you are asking if you can transfer the current emails on the Mac onto the iPad, no you cannot, unless the email is an IMAP account and they can download onto the iPad again from the server.

I just purchased a lightning sd card reader for my iPad, but it does not fit..it's for fourth gen...opps..I've now had to order the camera kit for third gen model...will I need both or do I return the first one

Hi i just purchased an sd card reader but it's for fourth gen iPad...pops. I've now ordered the camera kit for the third gen ....do I need both somehow or do I just return the lightening ad reader I purchased first. I rang apple support and swear I was told keep both, but if the camera kit is all I need...I don't see the point in keeping the fourth gen one, since it won't fit? Confused...ita a fourteen day refund so I need to act fast...any help?

There's no reaso to keep the Lightning version if your iPad can't support it. Unless you have some other devcie that can use it, like an iPad Mini or an iPhone 5.
Otherwise return it.

Work flow? How to link multi-cam sequences for DVD output?

Pr cs4 (very new)
Still taking baby steps each day... please take my hand and help me!
Final output will be 2 DVD's (each DL) each about 2 hrs. Content are chamber music student groups in two recitals.
I have assets from two camera angles. I have successfully practiced on one of the groups performance (10 min.) following the steps illustrated in a multi-cam tutorial. http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/?id=vid0234
This leaves me with a great multi-cam sequence for that group located in the Project Panel, exactly what I want.
Now, I want to know what is the best method (workflow?) to ultimately produce a DVD containing about 10 of these type performances (one after the other) with chapter markings for each group, titles etc.?
I have yet to use Encore and I'm guessing that is where I'll send the finished edit for DVD production, though I don't know at what step I jump there?
Do I try to create one very long multi cam sequence of all the content, then send to Encore? Or can I create seperate multi-cam sequences (each performance) then link them together, adding transitions and make the DVD? This would be my preference to keep things more manageable, especially with audio synching.
With my practice multi-cam sequence on the timeline, I tried to drag the same sequence from the Project Panel to the end of the timeline to simulate how this would work, but it does not add to the timeline as a clip would.
This is probably childs play for you pro's, but we were all baby's at one time...I just happen to still be one!
Thanks for your patience and advice,
Kenny

Yes I did...now toss me a cookie please.
I am trying to quickly get up to speed in Pr CS4 to get this project completed. In the process, I'm trying to learn and understand the interface and correct terminology so as to make my questions intelligible to a community that posses vastly greater understanding than myself.
Is there anyone who can help with my main question at hand? Namely, how to go about creating a full length sequence (in the timeline) made via the nesting of synchronized multi-camera clips within a new "multi-cam sequence"?
As I said, I have completed a small test sequence in this fashion, nesting clips in a new sequence then using multi-cam monitor to record cuts. Now I need to add about 10 more of these together in a completed sequence to then send to DVD production.
Is this intelligible?
Thanks, Kenny

I just had the same problem. And I found the solution, on Youtube.
The problem is that these ******** at apple designed the battery compartement, the distance between metal contacts too big.
That means the batteries plus or minus poles are not touching the corresponding contacts in the mouses battery compartement.
Most likely the battery doesn't get pushed up to touch the plus contacts.
I used a fingernail to push the battery up and tadaa, the green LED came on.
The guy in the Youtube video just put some folded aluminium foil under the minus poles for bridging the gap.
See here, "How to fix the Apple Magic Mouse!":

Camera mount for HP AC100 camera.

Hello all, perhaps someone can help me and let me know where i can buy a camera mount for a HP AC100 camera. One would think that it is an easy thing to get hold of but unfortunately in South Africa i have had no joy in getting one. Unfortunately I keep breaking mine (probably due to the fact that I mostly use the camera for off road biking, and lately have been battling to keep on the bike) Probably a good idea to buy more than one. Any help would be much appreciated, i can be contacted on my e-mail [email protected] TIA.
