New sony camcorder only has HDMI output, how to get in to iMac?

My dad is looking to get a new Sony camcorder. He edits using FCE.  Problme is, the latest cameras have moved from firewire output to HDMI. Is there any type of dongle than will allow HDMI A/V to be input to a early 2011 27" iMac so he can get his video??
Thanks

I know it's the wrong forum, but why are you trying to transfer video from a new camcorder using HDMI? Most modern camcorders are file based, and you can either transfer the footage to FCE by taking from the memory card or connecting the camcorder via a USB cable to get to the files. From more info, look at the FCE forum as andy says (earlier version of FCE don't support AVCHD footage - check what type of camcorder it is).

    Return the camcorder and purchase one that is Mac compatible.  Simple as that!

  • IPhoto books in iPhoto -  The new Photos program only has square photo books.  Will I be able to edit/order books with iPhoto after I upgrade to Photos?

    I have many photo books created in iPhoto.  These are rectangular shaped.  The new Photos program only has square shaped books.  After I upgrade to Photos, will I still be able to order books using iPhoto?  Or, will Photos allow me to edit books in their original rectangle shape, and order them?

    The new Photos.app will have the classic rectangular sizes as well.
    See the Preview.
    Apple - OS X - Photos Preview
    It only mentions the new square format, but the classic layouts are there as well, as the picture shows.
    But you may not be able to migrate the old book projects. Finish any current book project while still using iPhoto '11 and create new projects in Photos.

    You could go hunting for a fair price on a refurbished or restored Intel-based Mac or MacBook, as most early models of CoreDuo and Core2Duo can run Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and some much more recent.
    The Apple Store's Special Deals section that is online has some fairly recent examples of hardware with an OS, original accessories as noted, power cord, and complementary one year coverage. Eligibility for extended AppleCare plans are noted & may be available for various items in the store. Subject to availability. Refurbished. Like new. The price difference can be about the same as the additional two year AppleCare plan may cost, so get that too.
    Third party repaired restored or available through other channels vary in quality, quantity, condition, and may be lacking in some or most original accessories; they should include basic hardware as originally equipped and have the boot-install software disc set as intended for that build model & year specification, included.
    Auction sites rarely have that much of a kit together, w/ missing discs, scruffy, extra fees, etc. On the other hand, companies that restore and repair Macs for a living and are authorized Apple service centers may have something, if you aren't in the market for something holiday new or really quick. Older models if reasonably refurbished can still shine years later.
    Hopefully this helps somewhat.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • "Data only" csv export. How to get the same data?

    When I export to csv I get more data than when exporting to "data only". Why and how to get the same as when using "data only". I suppose it is because of some supressed lines, but why there is difference in the view (which is right) and in the export file?
    I do not want to export to xls with "data only" and save as csv, because the exported csv is being read by another application, which is unable to convert it automatically.
    The other way is to put constraints in the data selection for the whole report (and not by supressing lines). How to say {table.date}>=maximum({table.date}) in the  in the data selection? There is not possible to use "maximum". Probably possible with array?
    Thanks in advance

    Ok, I managed it: I put the constraint in the group selection

    New customers get more options because new customers didn't already agree to complete a 2yr contract before being able to get a new phone. If you had a line that wasn't under contract, you would get a better deal than new customers because while they pay $35 activation fee for a new line, you pay $30 upgrade fee for using an upgrade. You just have to finish your end of the deal before you can start a new one.

    my ipod touch got wet and now is broken - I purchased a new ipod touch and want to know how I get my purchased apps onto my new ipod touch

    To restore app data, the apps have to be in the iTunes library of the computer on which you do the restore. The iPod ackup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
    To redownload iTunes purchases see:

    That will not work!
    You cannot copy or migrate Adobe applications from computer to computer. There are a whole host of files in different locations which have to be installed, and copying will not do it.
    In fact, you'll now have to use the Adobe Cleaner tool to remove the mess you created. You can get to it here:

  • In IPhoto or IPad, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with only edited photos. How do I keep it in or get it back to its original album?

    When using IPhoto for IPad, can I move photos from one album to another? For instance, when I edit a photo in an existing album, the photo is removed and placed in a new album with other edited photos. How do I keep it in or move it back to its original album?

    That will depend on the kind of album your photo is in.
    Most albums in iPhoto are created automatic by the way you are using and editing your photos, see: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/1.1/#blnkb9b1e2a
    When you edit your photo, the edited copy is added to the automatic "edited" album and the view switches to he edited album. But the photo should stay in its original album - do you see something different? Only if you want the edited photo in the camera roll and the photo strea as well, you have to save the edited copy to the camera roll again after editing, otherwise the camera roll will show the original and not the edted version.

  • X121e HDMI output - how to enable?

    Hi, I can't work out how to enable HDMI output from this laptop to my TV. On other laptops I've tried with the TV they respond to me plugging in the HDMI cable. On this one nothing happens. Also I can't see any obvious options to select HDMI output. The manual says press Fn F7 but when I select the external options there is no second monitor detected and again I can't see any options to select it. Any suggestions what to look at? Thanks, Pete.

    I've tried another monitor and still no luck. Either there is some setting I'm missing for the Intel HD output, or I wonder if my HDMI output is faulty. Any ideas what to look for in the device manager or troubleshooting steps I can do? Thanks, Pete.

  • Bought laptop only has Firefox. How to import IE-Favorites from my USB?

    Bought a used laptop that only has Firefox Version 3.6.12. How do I import IE-Favorites from my USB stick?

    Firefox can't directly import IE Favorites, you need to '''export''' in HTML format and then '''import''' that file into Firefox.
    In IE: <br />
    File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file
    ''then in Firefox:'' <br />
    Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file
