The Fastest Transfer, the Smartest Storage of HD Video from FCE4

OK, fairly stupid newbie here.
Coming next week is my new Macbook Pro 17" with an Express Card slot I still don't understand.
I have a Sony Handycam SR11, humongous HD footage.
What is the optimal way (fastest) to transfer my Handycam footage into FCE4, transfer it from FCE4 into storage, to upload into cyberland (Facebook), and what what else would I need to buy to make this happen.
I will be mobile for 8 days in November, doing MUCH video editing.
I know the Express Card thingie will be key but have no idea what to with it, what to buy, what to set up, etc
Thanks. You're all GENIUSES!

Yes, they will transfer as long as they are in 720p. However, you might want to check this if you are willing to try. Might save you from having to buy a new iPad?

  • Need to get all the files, well music and video, from my ipod touch 5th gen to my itunes libary.

    Need to get all the files, (well music and video), from my ipod touch 5th gen to my itunes libary. (So basically sync the other way to normal)
    Laptop hard drive broke so had to buy a new one and obviously now need to sort out my itunes.
    Did try downloading all my purchased stuff onto itunes but it has missed some things off, and there are some files I did not purchase from itunes so need a way of getting them back on there.
    Sure this question has been asked a million times but can't find anything to help me on here so thought I'd ask.
    -Did have a look at going onto the start menu and opening the hidden items thing but couldn't see any reference to ipod or device on it so wasn't sure how to do it that way.
    -On itunes under my device when its connected, the section about manually restoring and backing up, would that help me? Because that says it will manually back up my ipod to my computer then could restore that back up, obviously I don't want to accidnetally get rid of everything on my ipod so didn't want to try that just in case without checking.
    (And yes I have disabled auto sync to device when conncected!)
    Can anyone help me please? Sorry if i've overcomplicated this!
    Thanks:)

    Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media.  You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else.  As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
    You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC.  Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

  • Will the ipad mini play HD videos from amazon prime instant video?

  • I recently updated my IOS software on my IPAD with the latest version and now video from some sites does not run. I did not do the update on my other IPAD and the video runs fine. Any idea why.

    I have an IPAD 3 and recently updated the IOS software with the latest version and now video from some sites will not display where it did prior to the update. When I go to those same sites on my other IPAD that I did not do the softward update the video still works. Any idea why and what to do to fix it?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • HT203200 How can i solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes??

    How can I solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes.   The apple support people cannot even figure it out!??

    The 2330 error often means some sort of damage to the filing system as might happen if the battery fell out while the disk was in use.
    Try running a disk check to see if it finds and fixes any errors.

  • I accidentally trimmed the wrong part of a video from photo booth, is there any way to get it back?

    I accidentally trimmed the wrong part of a video from photo booth, is there any way to get it back?

    I'm not sure about older versions, but in Pages 3.x (OS X 10.9.x) select File > Revert To > Browse All Versions.  Hopefully there will be an earlier version that you can "revert to".

  • What is the best way to manage Videos from the iPhone 3GS

    I want manage videos like pictures.
    All vids is stored in my iPhoto Library.
    What is the best way to sync them ?

    iPhoto supports importing photos and videos from a digital camera that supports capturing video as well as photos.
    If the videos were deleted from your iPhone after the iPhoto import process was complete, and you want to transfer a video or videos back to your iPhone for viewing, you need to transfer the videos to iTunes that you want transfered to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process as with any other video.

  • In the past I have viewed video from my iPhone and iPad with 8.3 on my Sony TV with AppleTV Gen 1. Now I have audio coming from my Sony TV but NO video. AirPlay is ON to AppleTV. Suggestions?

    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.3 and I have an AppleTV Gen 1 that is connected to a Sony TV and I have viewed photos from my iPhone before but now I only hear audio that comes from my iPhone on the Sony TV but no video. iPhone's AirPlay is ON to AppleTV. Why don't I have video? Same thing happens with iPad Air

    AIrplay is not supported on 1st gen, I assume you have a 2nd gen (black box). Not all apps are enabled for AirPlay, this would be up to the developers to do

  • What is the simplest way to get video from mini DV tapes into computer

    My computer has no firewire connection. What is the simplest way to get the video from my camera (JVC GR-D340EK) ?

    Mikeathome
    Thanks for the reply.
    The reason that I asked if this was a one time thing or not was related to my thoughts about asking you to look at the relative costs of have the DV data capture firewire done professional or by a friend versus going through looking for slots on your computer for a firewire card or purchasing a computer that still comes with a firewire port.
    We will be watching for further developments.
    Thanks.

  • Any Programs In The AppStore that recover lost Videos from iPhone?

    I need an app that recovers lost videos from my iphone. It cannot be from iTunes backup file, but from the actual phone. I downloaded Wondershare but it doesn't seem to work. It does not matter that it's not from the App Store, just any program that will do the trick.
    Thanks!

    Why not post in the iPhone forum? Although it would seem that if it's not in an iTunes backup file or in the Cloud then it's gone.

  • What's the easiest way to pull videos from icloud?

    Just did an iOS6 upgrade and need to pull a few videos from iCloud.  What is the easiest way to do this?

    The only videos in iCloud are ones that you took on your phone and were stored in the camera roll.  And those are contained in your iCloud backup and can only be retrieved by restoring your phone to the entire backup.  (Unless you mean purchased Movies, which can be redownloaded for free in many countries if permitted by the studio.)

  • The previous owner of my iTouch deleted the option to view the itouch's playlists and videos from iTunes. I'm wondering how to re-add these features.

    No idea how to solve this. Or to word the question to research the solution on my own.

    Nevermind, I played around with it a little more and just overrode the previous sync and it fixed it.

  • Moving the playback window is the only way to keep video from stuttering

    I have a problem where video stutters every second or two. The playback will freeze, audio continues to play, and then the video will unfreeze to sync with the audio. It always fixes when I reboot the computer, but only for a few days. Then it returns. Simply logging out and back in does not fix the problem.
    The biggest clue, it seems, is that the stuttering does not occur if I click on the player window and move the window around. It plays just fine while I'm doing that, but the moment I stop moving the window, even with the mouse button still held down, the problem returns.
    It happens with all video players, including Quicktime player and VLC.
    It happens in all 5 logins.
    It happens with all video file types.
    It happens reading from both my internal drives and my external firewire drive.
    I have 21 gigs free on my 160 gig HD. Even when I freed up more space it didn't help.
    TechTool reports no problems with any subsystem (video, memory, etc.). I tried swapping RAM and even buying new RAM and still the problem occurs.
    I tried repairing permissions and checking the drive for errors.
    I've spent hours trying to find a solution to this problem. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
    (Yes, I posted this problem a while back in a separate topic, but I got nowhere so I thought I'd try a different topic subject)
    Thanks for any help.

    Okay, some of these are not obviously third-party. Should I just remove them all?
    Thanks.

  • How do you change the aspect ratio of a video from 4:3 to 16:9?

    in final cut pro x

    Aspect ratio is set automatically.  But, there are times when someone messed something up in a clip before you got it.  I recently had that happen, 16:9 HD was squashed to 4:3 SD, but you can deal with that easily.  You can change it with the Transform > Scale > X parameter.  In my specific case, I set Scale X parameter to 134% and was done with it.
