Panasonic TM700 recording in 1080/50p (PAL) - how do I get onto a MAC?

Hi
I have just purchased a Panasonic TM700 and recorded a few test shots in 1080/50p.... only to discover that neither I-movie or Final Cut Express can import the recordings.
The Panasonic software provided is only PC friendly (and I'm not going there!) so has anyone got any suggestions as to how I can get them onto my MAC...
Many thanks
Steve

There will be several qualifications to my answer, because I work with 60p NTSC, and I'm not sure if PAL is significantly different or not. The main issue I think will be if the native video files are .mts.
When you connect the camera you should be able to navigate to the native files with this path: Camera Mem/AVCHD/BDMV/Stream/.mts. Copy the .mts files.
I use a program called Clipwrap to convert these files to .mov files. A free version limited to 1 minute clips is available for download.
Once you have the .mov files, you can import them to iMovie.
The other way to get the files on to your computer is record a small bit of video with HA 1080i setting. With that small bit, along with your 1080p clips, iMovie will allow the function of "Archive All" which will get the camera memory contents on to your computer, but you still have to convert the mts files with Clipwrap, in order to work on them.

  • TS2972 I have 4 Apple TV's. All set up to Home share. One will not see the computer. It is also the only 720 I have. The other three are 1080's. How do I get the 4th one (the720) to recognize my Mac?

    Need more information to help you, but I am providing some suggestions.  Sorry if you are past these type of basic things.  But didnt really have much to start with and understand your technical level to start with. 
    Have you got into Settings > Computers > Turned on Home Sharing (Note: You must use the some Apple ID used by the iTunes library on your MAC for them to see one another)
    How is your MAC connected to the network vs the 720 ATV2?  Is one WiFi and the other Ethernet?  Have you tried switching the ATV2 to WiFi if Ethernet? 
    Has the MAC been restarted since this started happening?  Same with your Router and any other networking device being used?  Sometimes an IP conflict can arise in your networking and most consumer networking equipment does not know how to "self heal" without a reboot. 
    Make sure you have given those things a whirl and share back your results.  Any other information you can provide, such as how you connect to your network from each ATV and MAC. 

  • I was able to copy all my files from my Time Capsule, but that is all they are...files. How do I get my new Mac Mini to emulate my other Mac?

    Doggiemommie,
    Copying files is not a good idea.
    The "other Mac" was backed up onto Time Capsule using the Time Machine. On your new Mac you should restore the old user - rather than copy files manually.
    This usually happens during the initial setup of the new computer or you can do it later using Migration Assistant.
    Please note, it is possible to damage backup file on the Time Capsule when you browse it and copy files manually.
    Hope this explains.

      I partitioned a small drive for a windows program, and now the computer only wants to boot to Windows.  How do I get back to Mac so I can have a choice of drives?

    That doesn't sound good. It sounds like the power outage might have corrupted the partition for OS X. I would suggest booting from the Install DVD that came with your Mac while holding down the C key. Once you have selected the language start up Disk Utility from the pull down menu and repair the disk. Once you have done that then repair permissions also.

  • When i sign into icloud, a box appears asking me to verify the information in my email, but when i check my email inbox there is no email there. so how do i get onto icloud?

    when i sign into icloud, a box appears asking me to verify the information in my email, but when i check my email inbox there is no email there. so how do i get onto icloud?
    I need to deactive icloud to be able to repair my phone as it is damaged. however when signing into icloud it appears with a box asking me to verify the information in my email. When loging into my email inbox, there is no message there from icloud to verify. so how do I get onto icloud or how else can I deactivate it without using my device?

    Hi ryball89,
    Happy Holidays!  If you are having issues with the verification email for your iCloud/Apple ID, follow the steps below:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email
    Not sure where that email was sent? Here are some tips to help you find it.
    When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
    Search for the email
    We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
    Make sure you're checking the correct email account
    If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account. 
    If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
    Resend the email
    To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
    To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
    Make sure that you're getting email
    If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address. 
    Contact us
    Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • How do I get documents from mac to iPad

    How do I get documents from Mac to iPad?

    If you just have a few that you want to view, you can e-mail them to yourself and use the viewer in the mail app to view them.
    If you have several or want to save them on the iPad or edit them then you'll need an app. Apple has iPad versions of Pages, numbers and keynote that should sync between your mac and iPad.

  • How  can I get rid of "Mac Protector" ad?

    How can I get rid of "Mac Protector" ad?

    To get rid of it, just force quit the browser. If you installled it, or its installer ran:
    First, restart in Safe Boot by holding the Shift key down at the chime. Or, alternatively, open Activity Monitor in Utilities, set to Active Processes, find the program and force quit it. This will keep it from running, so you can remove it.
        1.    Drag the MacSecurity program -- or whatever it's called, MAC Defender, MacProtector (installed in the Applications folder by default) to the Trash. Empty the Trash.
        2.    Remove item of same name from the Login Items for your Account in the OS X System Preferences (if it exists).
        3.    Go to your Home folder Library>Preferences and Application Support (may not be one there) and search for any files with one of the above names and trash them. Empty the trash.
        4.    If you use Safari, go to Preferences>General and UNCHECK "Open "safe" files after downloading. Keep that unchecked.
    If you paid for it, they have your credit card #. Call your credit card and dispute the charges. Also, cancel the card ASAP.
    As a precaution, change your password.

  • HT1600 how can i get my lion mac to mirror?

    how can i get my lion mac to mirror?

    What Mac do you have, only early 2011 or later (mid 2011 for some) supports mirror, even with Mountain Lion.  If you mac is older it won't work.  You can get an app such as airparrot to to it for about 10 bucks.
    If you mac is a 2011 or later, when you are on the same network as your apple tv, home sharing on and all set up the mirror icon should be next to the clock and be good to use.
    Good luck,

    You can either use Office for Mac 2011 or use Boot Camp to run Windows or use a VM, such as Parallels Desktop to run Windows. Running Windows, you'd be able to use MS Office for Windows.
