I am trying to video from my panasonic vdr d100 to my air and the mac is not recognizing that the camera is plugged in...Help

Hi:
No-maybe that site just confused you.
This may be a better explaination:
get for 20$ the Apple mpeg2 plugin
and for free the tool Streamclip for converting mp1/2/4, divx, avi, vob...
other tools are:
* DVDxDV, it has a 30d trial period (testdrive sets a watermark)... and cost 25$
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in

iMovie is a video edit app meant to work with firewire connected miniDV camcorders

Panasonic VDR-D100 DVD Camcorder

Hi
How to get a Panasonic VDR-D100 DVD Camcorder to work on a mac x 10.4.10

Thank you thank you thank you!
Someone who has managed this! But I still can't do it! I've used Video mode, finalised disc, attached USB lead, set camera to playback mode, open iMovie 08 and still can't import the video. DVD player starts, so I exit it. But i still can't get video onto mac.
Got iMovie 08 this week just for this!
Any help you can offer?

Panasonic VDR-D100... having issues importing home videos!

Hello,
I am having problems importing home videos from my Panasonic VDR-D100 camcorder onto my computer - any suggestions? Do I need additional software or maybe I'm just doing something wrong?
I am connecting my camera via USB then turning it on, opening up iMovie and nothing comes up! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Jen

This may seen like a stupid question, but is the camera set to "Play"? And does the screen show the words "USB Connected" or something to that effect?
Also, after everything is connected have you tried navigating to the File menu and selecting "Import from Camera..."?

Panasonic VDR-D100

I was just given a Panasonic VDR-D100 camcorder and was wondering if I can edit my movies with iMovie 6 on my mac mini. Do I need anything more than a firewire to connect the two or do I need to buy different editing software?

Dowloading Panasonic VDR-D100 Camcorder to iMovieHD '06

Does any body know how I can download video recorded material from my D-VDR-D100 Camcorder to iMovie HD '06? No firewire. Has only USB

welcome ben to the  boards ...
your device is a DVDcorder, which isn't supported by iMHD≤6 ... needs to be, as Klaus allready stated, a firewire connected miniDV ..
two options:
purchase iLife08 .. (be sure, your Mac fullfills hardware req.)
or, finalize disk in camera and search this board for 'DVD Import'.
If your device uses non-standarded sized disk, don't stick into slot-in drives!!!

Panasonic VDR-D50P

I have an older panasonic camcorder I can't get my MAC/Imovies 11 to recognize the format. The movies play fine on the camcorder and I think are recorded in MPEG2 format. Any suggestions on an App or solution to get them on my Mac. Thanks

Hi. Welcome.
Well, that particular camcorder is not on the supported list:

It would help to know what your Mac system configuration is.
Also by "quicktime update" I presume you are referring to QT Pro? And the other program is MPEG Streamclip? You're aiming to get the MPEG-2 files converted prior to importing into iMovie, correct?

Panasonic VDR-D200 Extraction burn DVD etc

Just joined this group today after getting some help from MAC Support. I'm having trouble with importing movies from my Panasonic VDR-D200 mini DVD camera. The software that came with the camera doesn't seem to work well so I contacted Mac. They indicated that since my IMac G5, is recognizing my Panasonic camera, I could use an extraction program and then I would be able to import the movie into iMovie for trhe purpose of editing or burning a DVD (WHICH IS MY PRIMARY OBJECTIVE) I used Mac the Ripper which was able to take all the files off my camera and save them on my hard drive..but what do I do now? How do I take those VTS and Video files and turn into a movie. Pretty uneducated here on the video end of Macs..thanks for your help!

Take the camera back where you bought it and exchange for a model that records to tape. You'll be happier.
DVD format is MPEG-2 which is a playback format not intended for editing.
Converting MPEG-2 is a pain and is time consuming. It also requires additional software and some $$ to to buy it.
If your camera also includes a Firewire cable you'll be able to just plug and play with iMovie.

The almost compatible Panasonic VDR-D230 DVD-RAM Camcorder?

Having read other posts about incompatible DV cameras I don't have as big of a problem as others but here goes...
I have a Panasonic VDR-D230 DVD-RAM Camcorder, which is not on the compatibility list. Yet when I connect it to my iMac and fire up iMovie 7 I can see all of the clips, select the clips, create an event and import most of the clips. For some annoying and seemingly random reason it seems to hang on the occasional clip and freezes up (so I have to force quit).
My question is: has anyone else faced this issue, or is this simply an example of the incompatibility that I'll have to work around?
To get those clips that will not import I go the "Streamclip/convert to .dv/import into iMovie" route, which I can live with if need be - although I like the smaller .mov files that iMovie encodes the others in.
Thanks

Only a guess but file corruption could be your issue here, not quite the same thing I know but my AVCHD camera sometimes does the same thing, when it starts I know it's time to reformat the HDD and it will be good for another few months. Obviously doesn't help with clips that have already been recorded though.
I've found that imovie can be a little touchy about suspect clips and other applications will often but not always convert them if imovie wont. For DVD based clips mpegstreamclip would be an application worth trying.

You can only add songs to your iOS device from iTunes via Wi-Fi sync or via your cable, not Bluetooth.

That's an entirely different issue, unrelated to your iOS devices.

I gave my ipad 2 to my brother last month. After that he erased all content and settings, sign in with his apple id. The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
Is your iPad working?

I have a tesco router and an external hard drive attached to it as a network drive (shared) for my macbook and MB-Air. Have no problems with my MB accessing it, but with MB-AIR it says - 'the version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. pls contact your system administrator to resolve the problem'. MB-Air uses maverick downloaded yesterday - upgrade from mountain lion. MB uses snow leopard still, as i am quite used to it and am thinking of upgrade if mavericks work fine on air. Also have parallel on snow leopard but it is no longer supported according to mac website - if i upgrade am i going to lose my parallel and will have to buy a new one!!!

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

How do I change the name I have called my MacBook Air so I can add 11" and 13" into the title of whose computer this is for more clarity when I set up Time Machine and save to it with both computers? Both are named with "my name and MacBook Air"

I'm still learning the whole Mac thing but these are great machines! I purchased a MacBook Air 13" and then thought I should also get a MacBook Air 11" for travel. When I set it up at the Apple store I told the assistant the exact same name for each machine, i.e., "my name and MacBook Air." What I want to do is go back in and rename both of them adding the 11" and 13" designation to the name so that when I set up Time Machine or whatever else I know exactly which machine is what. I'm sure it is very simple but I cannot seem to figure it out. Help please. Thanks.

Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.

Using Ethernet, I am attempting to stream the movies on my computer to my girlfriends computer through iTunes home sharing. I want to watch the movies that are on one computer on another.
