Sony HVRV1U not recognize in FCE4 and Imovie8: why?

Hi, I am a new Imac user and am trying to transfer the mini-dv from my hvrv1u through either of these software but no window pops open to acknowledge the connection. I am using the proper fire800-i.link cable, the Imac is a 3.06GHz core duo with 8G memory on mac os 10.6.6.
This camera is not on the Apple list as compatible: is this the real problem or is there a work around? Never had this problem on my pc.
And, is there a mini-dv camera under 500$ that I could use on the Imac. I need big help on this please. Many thanks.

.... but no window pops open to acknowledge the connection...
That only happens on Windows, not Macs!
To check if your Mac has seen the camera: go to Apple Menu: About this Mac: More Info:
- then select the "Firewire" label on the left hand pane. Does the camera get listed on the right hand pane?
Almost any Firewire camera will work with a Mac (including the V1!)
(BTW: This is the MacPro forum, not iMac, but what the ****! )

  • When I try to log on to Facebook, My iPad will not recognize my password, and I get an error code 190. What is it and why do I get it?

    When I try to log onto Facebook, my iPad will not recognize my password, and I get an error code 190, but I can log on on my HP desktop. What is code 190, and why do I get it?

    I was using the FB app that came with the iPad. What I eventually did was.
    1. Held down both home key and on-off button until iPad shut down, then rebooted.
    2. Uninstalled FB app.
    3. Went to App Store and re-installed FB app.
    The iPad had numerous problems. My son saw my plea on FB as I was accessing it through my HP computer, and he walked me through it. While he was at it, he taught me how to disconnect auto-correct. I am not certain that I want to keep that off, but everything is working the way it is supposed to  the way it was in the beginning. 
    I am curious, though, as to what ears to the problem in the first place. After checking various sites, it seems that a code 190 has to do with windows not Apple.
    But thank you for the response.

  • HT1199 I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?

    I have a desktop mac operating on Mac OSx 10.4.11 and the system does not recognize my iphone and I am unable to upgrade to the newest itunes version. What do I need to do?

    Backup first
    It is always best to have a full bootable backup before you upgrade. If you fail to do this you will be unable to return to this OS if you decide you don't like the new OS. Also there is a slight chance that an install could lose everything on the Mac. The backup must be to an external hard disk. Preferably use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a bootable backup of the whole disk.
    Erase before the install
    Once you have a bootable backup on an external disk it is best to erase the internal disk with the new installer DVD before you install.
    During the install
    Preferably do not import any data or preferences from earlier OSs during the install process as this can reintroduce bugs.
    OS numbers and names
    OS X 10.4.x - Tiger
    OS X 10.5.x - Leopard
    OS X 10.6.x - Snow Leopard
    OS X 10.7.x - Lion
    OS X 10.8.x - Mountain Lion
    More about Macs
    The Apple History site has specifications for every Mac ever produced: http://www.apple-history.com/
    Upgrade to Leopard
    Those wishing to upgrade to Leopard should be aware that install disks can be expensive unless you contact Apple. Details: http://lowendmac.com/deals/best-os-x-leopard-prices.html Standard Leopard installers impose several hardware limitations including speed and RAM size but all these restrictions can be overcome. Google for details. Leopard works well at 500 MHz with 1 GB of RAM and many happy users have less than this.
    Upgrade beyond Leopard
    OSs beyond OS X 10.5.8 require an Intel processor. If in doubt check this: Click the apple at the top left of your screen and select 'About this Mac'. This will give you your OS number. Then click 'More Info' to see which processor you have. If it says PowerPC you cannot upgrade to Snow Leopard and above. If you have an Intel Mac it is well worth upgrading to Snow Leopard now and then considering other options after that. You can buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
    Upgrade beyond Snow Leopard

    Check that your Mac complies with any requirements. If you are not in the US you should use the Change Country link at the bottom of Apple pages.

  • My phone crashed and has an icon showing a usb cable and the itunes emblem. when I connect to itunes it does not recognize my phone and treats it as just iphone. when I try to restore about 9 to 10 minutes into the restore the phone turns off and then on

    My phone crashed and has an icon showing a usb cable and the itunes emblem. when I connect to itunes it does not recognize my phone and treats it as just iphone. when I try to restore about 9 to 10 minutes into the restore the phone turns off and then on and then loses the connection with itunes and at the end of the download it just asks me to restore it again.

    Be prepared to lose everything on your iPhone but it should be backed up in iTunes so you can restore from your backup.

    Perhaps the reason that your username and password are not recognised is because you have caps lock on.

    you haven't told us what "Park" the "merry-go-round" is in
    tell us what actions you take to get Apple not to recognize your email address...
    Are you formatting it correctly? - username @ someDomain .com <- NO Spaces (I did it so the system wouldn't make an email link out of it)
    Tell us what happens when you realize  that Apple is "not recognizing" your email. What message do you get, exactly? Take screenshot of the entire screen for context

  • Unable to email photos, receive a statement that the server does not recognize my username and or password, have checked multiple times that these are correct

    I am unable to e-mail  photos, receive a statement saying that the werever does not recognize my username and or password. I have checked multiple times and these are correct.

    The box comes up that says "server does not recognize username or password".
    That error message usually will pop up, when there is a conflict between the "From" setting for the mail account you are sending from and the selected outgoing mail server. Probably the outgoing Mail server is receiving a user name and password it does not understand. When the mail returns unsent, do you see the "Try again" panel with the option to select a different outgoing mail server?
    If you do not see this panel, change the Mail "Preferences > General" to "If Outgoing server is unavailable: Show a list of alternate servers". This way, you will know, which server Mail is trying to send from.
    Have you tried to set "From"  pop-up menu to one of your other email addresses?  If that works, change your settings in Mail to always send from this address. You can set this option in the Mail "Preferences > Composing: Send New Messages from". I have my "Send New Messages from" set to "iCloud". That is working best for me with iPhoto.

  • Multiple Problems: iTunes does not recognize, no music, and odd click

    I went to update my iPod, and after I updated it, I went to go listen to it, and it said I had no music, no videos, no photos, nothing! But if I look at the summary of the iPod, it says there is still stuff on it, however it is now orange instead of blue, before it was blue, because of all the music.
    It is also making an odd clicking noise now.
    Also, iTunes does not recognize my iPod. I have attempted the 5 Rs, but I cannot restore, because my iTunes does not recognize my iPod, and I attempted the steps suggested if iTunes does not recognize the iPod, and still no luck.
    PUH PUH PUH PLEEEASE HELP!!

    i think im having the same problem, and its bull. i cant find any answers, just this 5 R stuff that definitely solves nothing. First i would plug in my ipod classic into my computer and a message would pop up saying that something has malfunctioned and i need to hook up my device to a 2.0 usb port, even though thats what it was plugged in to, so i reinstalled the drivers for the usb ports. that stoppped happening and now when i plug it in nothing happens, it turns on my ipod but itunes doesnt see it and neither does my computer! HELP!!!

  • TS2570 iMac does not recognize wifi keyboard and track pad... cursor stays in top left corner under apple ?...

    iMac does not recognize wifi keyboard and track pad... cursor stays in top left corner under apple ?...

    Phillip,
    I had this problem recently with a 3-year old Mac Pro intel, which was eventually replaced by Apple due to myriad other problems. When the frozen mouse happened, there was nothing I could do. Very frustrating to have the screen boot and the cursor is up there stuck, on the top left corner of the screen. Frozen. I called support several times. They were amazed. At one point they had me buy a cheap USB mouse (I was using a wireless mouse from Logitech and they thought there might be some kind of conflict). The USB mouse didn't work, either. Neither did an Apple mouse when I went out to buy one.
    I ended up driving 70 miles to take the Mac to an Apple Store. I think they reinstalled the (Leopard) system in some secret way, because when the mouse was frozen so was everything else and I couldn't open the disk drive to put the OSX disk in there.
    Why I'm here right now is that the same thing happened today with my NEW 3-month-old REPLACEMENT MAC PRO using its brand new wireless mouse, and I was hoping to find some insight. Again, a frozen cursor after the boot. Same top-left corner of the screen. Unlike you, when I click the mouse nothing happens -- no drop down.
    Luckily, when I hard-rebooted by holding the button in, the mouse cursor came back. This time. Now I am afraid to turn my computer off. Been there done that before. Anyone have suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    I am having the identical error. I have an iPhone 4 and 2 macs, the phone is managed from an old G5 PowerMac and images are saved from it to Aperture for photos and videos go to iPhoto 11. The Mac is running 10.5.8. I last appear to have downloaded movies from iPhone4 to mac in December , the oldest video being 10 Dec 2010.
    This week I was going to back up a handful of images on the phone but after connecting it to the mac, something that happens several times a week to sync to itunes for app updates etc I found it did not list for import options in iPhoto nor in Aperture. I looked at Image Capture and that tells me no device is connected.
    I have no problems taking images off the phone using a MBP which has 10.6 and Image Capture recognises the phone.
    I have tried the following after reading through all the discussions on the topic of which there appear to be many with this problem.
    Restore the iphone then update settings from archive. - did nothing
    Closed apps reconnected iPhone started apps...  - did nothing
    Switched phone off then on then connected to mac then opened apps - nothing
    This Mac seems happy to communicate t othe phone though iTunes but appears to have lost the way when it comes to getting images off the iPhone. Any help keenly appreciated.
    regards
