Sony Digital 8 TRV 310 not recognized

I can't get FCE 3.0 to recognize a Sony Digital 8 TRV 310. It works fine with I Movie but for some reason not with FCE. My FW cable is working fine since I tested it with IM. Help Please.

    I have updated my adobe digital editions but application not recognizing it, can't open epub book

    What Adobe Digital app on your iPad? If you are talking about a third-party app (like Bluefire Reader) you need to connect your iPad to your computer, open iTunes, select the iPad, and select Apps in the Sidebar. Scroll down to the File Sharing section, select the app you plan on using, select Add (bottom right), navigate to where the book is on your computer, select the book and sync your iPad.

  • SONY HDR XR150 - Camcorder is not recognized by iMOVIE

    Dear all:
    _I own the Sony HDR XR150 camcorder and cannot get my MAC to recognize that my camcorder is connected._
    I have a Mac laptop Powerbook G4 and am running OS X version 10.4.11. I have iMOVIE 6.03 (267.2).
    When I am in iMOVIE the camcorder is not recognized. :[
    It states "No camcorder attached" even when I have small Firewire cable running from camcorder to larger firewire cable plugged into MAC. My footage on camcorder is on hard drive. I have no idea if the footage was taped in a certain format and I mention this because there are lots of formats written about in this forum - I just assumed everything was recorderd in HD. I simply hit record on camcorder to tape footage. When connected, I click on a button on camcorder for USB connect that uses the Internal Hard Drive (where my footage is). However, my camcorder is not recognized on iMOVIE.
    I am worried that the problem is I do not have an Intel based Mac. The software that came with Sony camcorder called PMB (Picture Motion Browser - only works with Windows.)
    This is what I dug up online.
    Tapeless Camcorder Support
    iMovie '09 works with many tapeless camcorders that record to flash memory, a hard disk drive (HDD), or DVD media. These devices use a USB 2.0 cable and include camcorders using MPEG-2 (standard definition), MPEG-4, AVCHD, and H.264 formats. If you use the AVCHD format you will need a Mac with an Intel-based Core Duo processor or better.
    Due to the wide range of media types, and the different ways manufacturers store video on these media types, not all tapeless camcorders are compatible with iMovie '09.

    *CAN ANYONE CLUE ME IN AS TO HOW TO GET MY SONY CAMCORDER TO BE RECOGNIZED IN IMOVIE?*

    My friend just wrote this to me as a possible solution...
    It doesn't surprise me that AVCHD is only supported on Intel machines. Apple tends to stop updating older products/software in favor of their newer lines. To their credit, high compression HD codecs are processor intensive, and older hardware would have a hard time with it.
    The camera may have some alternate options for video file type... Check the manual or help docs. Unfortunately, that could mean SD recording rather than HD.
    I DON'T KNOW IF MY FRIEND'S INFORMATION MIGHT HELP SOMEONE GIVE ME SOME EVEN BETTER IDEAS AS A SUGGESTION. AVCHD is a high-def video format that allows HD camcorders and some digital cameras to record video at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080. SOUNDS LIKE MY FRIEND IS SAYING IF I DON'T RECORD IN HD ON MY SONY CAMCORDER MAYBE MY IMOVIE WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH IT. BUT MY IMOVIE DOES NOT EVEN RECOGNIZE MY CAMCORDER... SO I DON;T THINK HIS SUGGESTION WILL WORK...
    SUGGESTIONS?

  • Sony A7 mk2 RAW file not recognized

    I recently upgraded from a Sony A7 to a A7mk2. When I try to import the RAW file from the A7mk2, Lightroom cannot provide preview of the file and would not import the files. It was working fine with A7 files. I tried to open the new file with Photoshop CC and Camera Raw could open the file. Can anyone tell me what I am missing in Lightroom. I am currently running Lightroom 5.7 and Camera Raw 8.7

    The regular version does have an update. its available here. Product updates
    You can only use the CC if you have a subscription.
    If you have a license key you have to use the regular update.

  • SONY DVD RW DW-U10A Not Recognizing Leopard Install Disc

    Welcome to the Apple boards:
    The drive may need a firmware update.
    It's also possible that the drive is no longer working properly.
    Does the drive eject only the Leopard DVD or any other movie DVD for example?
    What about CDs?
    You might also clean the lens on the optical drive. RadioShack sells several CD/DVD lens cleaners.
    Also, check in the system profiler under disk burning for any possible information about reading DVDs.
    Remember that the Leopard DVD is a dual-layer DVD. Your drive should be able to read it, but the DL reading part is not the same as the normal reading part. I think it uses a different laser at the minimum.

  • Sony NEX-5N RAW file not recognized

    I purchased and loaded from disk Adobe Elements 10.  When I try to open a RAW file (.ARW) from my Sony NEX-5N I get a message that it can't be opened because it is the wrong type of file.  How do I get Elements 10 to recognize the Sony NEX-5N RAW files?

    this is the link for supported RAW formats
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    1. check which version of ACR is installed with your PSE
    To check follow this  :
    Windows :  Open Elements Editor from the welcome screen, then goto Help >> About Plugin >> Camer raw
    Mac : Open Elements Editor , then goto Photoshop Elements menu>> About Plugin >> Camera raw and check the version
    Check the version there, if its less that 6.5, then you have to update because the camers that you are usning , it requires 6.5 ACR version to work with PSE 10
    To update goto Elements editor and and then goto help and update and this will show up the available updates for you PSE 10 which will include  ACR as well, once the update is done and installed , then relaunch the PSE 10 editor and then check the version once again  to be sure .
    If it has updated to 6.5 or later then check your RAW files, they should work now..

  • Will a Sony Digital 8 work with my iBook G4?

    Good Evening,
    Given my 10 years of service with my company, I have been given the opportunity to receive a Sony DCRTRV-280 digital 8 camcorder.
    Will this work with my iBook G4?
    Having read some past posts, it seems like it will work, but not without jumping through a couple of hoops.
    Anyone have experience with this unit being used on a mac?
    Thanks,
    Chris
    1.42 GHz PowerPC G4 512MB   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I use a Sony Digital-8 TRV 330E, and it works perfectly with my G3 and G4 PowerBooks, Mac mini, etc.
    In the UK, and the rest of Europe, some lower-priced camcorders have a FireWire OUT connection ..so that you can feed your footage into iMovie.. but don't necessarily have a FireWire IN connection ..for feeding your edited footage back to a tape in the camcorder. You may want to check and see if the DCRTRV-280 does have FireWire IN, but it's sure to have FireWire OUT, so that you can take the footage from the camera and edit it.
    But there WON'T be a FireWire cable in the box with the camera: you'll have to buy one separately ..you'll need a 4-pin-to-6-pin FireWire (..also called 'DV' or 'i.Link' or IEEE..) cable from a camcorder or electronics shop.

  • Camera is not recognized after upgrade to Tiger !!!!

    Hello,
    I recently upgraded to Tiger and until now I had absolutely NO problems with FCE (J1.01). I just finsihed a project before upgrading to Tiger. Then today I was going to start a new project and now the camera (Sony Mini Dv Handycam) is not recognized even if is connected to my Firewire ports. I exchanged the connection between the ports and the same result.
    Something more strange is that I though about checking it with the iChat AV application to see if it was a problem with the camera but iChat reports that the camera is being used by "other application". However I have no other application running and I cannot use it even for iChat.
    Please, Please any help is greatly appreciatted. If I cannot use FCE then having my iMac makes no sense..
    Thanks

    Excellent!!
    your answer was exactly the solution for my problem,
    a BIG Thank you, now everything is fine.
    P.S. the thing that bothers me is that I searched Apple support site for some answer and I could not find this document !!!

  • Sony TRV-310 is not recognized

    Hi everyone, I am Pablo form Argentina.
    I have this old cammera, that used to work fine on my iBook G4 (10.4.11) and my iMac Intel 2.0 (10.4.11) but now, is not recognized for any of the computers.
    I checked everything, and from time to time, while I was checking... QuickTime seems to recognize de camera, but when I tryied to record, says there is "no data".
    Could be the cable? How could I check the conections... I only have this camera and a computer-to-computer firewire cable, that I know is good.
    Thanks a lot,

    Hi
    Did You upgrade to Snow-Leopard ?

    • Sure that You use the FireWire - USB will not work for miniDV tape Cameras
    FireWire - Sure not using the accompany USB-Cable but bought a 4-pin to 6-pin FW one ?
    • Test another FW-Cable very often the problem maker.
    Camera
    • Test Your Camera on another Mac so that DV-in still works OK
    • Toogle in iMovie pref. Play-back via Camera (on<->off some times)
    • Some Cameras has a Menu where You must select DV-out to get it to work
    Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?
    Sorry to say it is to easy to turn the 6-pin end of the FW-cable 180 deg wrong.
    This is lethal to the A/D-chip in the Camera = needs an expensive repair.
    (Hard to find out - else than import/export to another Mac ceased to work
    everything else is OK eg recording and playback to TV)
    Connections
    • Daisy Chaining most often doesn’t work (some unique cases - it’s the only way that work (some Canon Cameras ?))
    Try to avoid connecting Camera <--> external HD <--> Mac but import directly to the Mac then move
    the Movie project to dedicated external hard disk.
    Mac
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? Please specify the amount of free space.
    (Other hard disks don't count)
    I go for a minmum of 25Gb free space for 4x3 SD Video - and my guess is 5 times more for 16x9 HD ones
    after material is imported and edited.
    SoftWare
    • Delete iMovie pref file may help sometimes. I rather start a new account, log into this and have a re-try.
    • Any strange Plug-ins into QuickTime as Perian etc ? Remove and try again.
    • FileVault is off ? (hopefully)
    Using WHAT versions ? .
    • Mac OS - X.5.4 ?
    • QuickTime version ? (This is the heart in both iMovie and FinalCut)
    • iMovie 8 (7.1.?) ?
    • iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4/3) ?
    Other ways to import Your miniDV tape.
    • Use another Camera. There where tape play-back stations from SONY
    but they costed about 2-4 times a normal miniDV Camera.
    • If Your Camera works on another Mac. Make an iMovie movie project here and move it
    over to Your Mac via an external hard disk.

    Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935
    from Karsten.
    in addition to Bengt's excellent '9 yards of advice' ..
    camera set to 'Play' , not rec/computer/etc.?
    camera not on battery, but power-line?
    did your Mac 'recognize' this camera before...?
    a technical check.
    connect camera, on, playback, fw-connected...
    click on the Blue Apple, upper left of your screen ..
    choose 'About../More..
    under Firewire.. what do you read..?

    • FileVault - Secure that it’s turned off
    • Network storage - DOESN’T WORK
    • Where did You store/capture/import Your project ?
    External USB hard disk = Bad Choise / FireWire = Good
    If so it has to be Mac OS Extended formatted

  • 1.8Ghz G5 (late 2004) can not recognise my sony digital camera

    My PowerMac G5(Mac OS X 10.3.9) can not recognise sony digital camera,but my friend have same model G5 with no problem,what shell I do?

    Did you use the very same camera on either Mac or just the same model? When my Mac (also G5 1.8 Dual, though the earlier spring model) had problems recognizing my Sony, it was a question of setting the USB mode on the camera: E.G. my camera allow to set its USB mode to either Normal or PTP, the PTP setting caused problems at times, though its too long to tell, of which nature they were. May be woth a try

  • [solved] Digital Camera not recognized in device-manager

    My digital camera "Canon Powershot SX120 is" is not recognized by the devicemanager. I have read Digital Cameras.
    $ groups
    wheel storage users printadmin
    The "camera"-Group isn't needed anymore and this group doesn't exist on my system.
    The Powershot SX 120 has a  MTP/PTP connection mode (as the manual says). But:
    # mtp-detect
    Unable to open ~/.mtpz-data for reading, MTPZ disabled.libmtp version: 1.1.6
    Listing raw device(s)
    No raw devices found.
    gphoto succeed:
    $ gphoto2 --auto-detect
    Modell Port
    Canon PowerShot SX120 IS usb:002,019
    A gphoto --summary could be found here
    There is no udev-rule for this camera. If i create one while copying a rule from a similar camera from /etc/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules, and store it into /etc/udev/rules.d/69-canon.rules, the device-manager shows up. My udev-rule:
    # Canon PowerShot SX120AX (PTP/MTP mode)
    ATTR{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTR{idProduct}=="31e0", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1"
    The device-manager shows me only the option to open with a file-manager. Doing so will result in an error:
    The file or folder udi=/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8/ do not exist.
    With my udev-rule:

    Don't know what to do ... is a udev-rule necessary to bring up the message from device-manger? Or is the Camera not recognized as a mtp-device (the Camera has no such settings)? How could i figure it out?
    With Digikam i could import Fotos, but i would do so with gwenview. I've tried to check it out with gwenview_importer:
    $ gwenview_importer --udi '/org/kde/solid/udev/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.1/usb2/2-8'
    QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
    gwenview_importer: Missing required source folder argument.
      (don't care about the different udi, i took this example from a former try) but i don't know, how to find out where the "source folder" is ...

    I have solved this by making an extra udev-rule for my camera. See my adventure on forum.kde.org for details

    Hi jcm2656,
    iMovie ’09 does not support the Sony HDr-PJ230 camcorder. See this article for a list of cameras supported for that version of iMovie -

    iMovie ’11 however, does support it. See this article -
