Upload Videos from camera to FCE 4!! HELP

Heyy!
So I just got Final cut express 4, and i have no idea how to upload my clips on to it!!
Can somebody help me??
I have a SONY Handycam DCR-SR68
--this is the camera im getting nowhttp://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=1055 1&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921666294177#features
Do these cameras even work with Final Cut Express 4?
HELP PLEASE

The HDR-PJ10 is also an AVCHD camcorder; should work with FCE fine. But make sure you update FCE to version 4.0.1
In FCE, select the Easy Setup (Final Cut Express > Easy Setup) that matches how you shot the video in your camcorder (for example, AVCHD-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60). Then connect your camera via USB and turn it on in playback mode. Then in FCE do File > Log and Transfer. This will open a window that will allow you to transfer the video clips from your camcorder to FCE.
However, it sounds like you need to take the time to learn the basics of FCE. Tom has twice suggested you read the manual (it is the Help file that you can acces through FCE by doing Help > Final Cut Express User Manual.
You will also benefit if you get a copy of Tom's book Final Cut Express 4 Editing Workshop. You should also take a look at Izzy Video's Final Cut Express Tutorial videos.

How do I upload video from lumix dmc-fz100 to iMovie 9?

I can't upload videos from camera into iMovie. It worked at some point, but no longer. Help please!
Mac OS X v10.5.8

If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be necessary to use both modes to import all media content. If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again. Note: Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge.

i tried to get the installation disc for the camcorder but mac wont' recognize it becaue it is windows based i guess.
i just bought the camcorder a few months ago and when my computer crashed thought i'm finally getting a mac...it's been a costly venture which has resulted in more frustration than before my pc.
now the things i want to use with my mac that i thought would be even simpler...are not even useable...

That camera shoots H.264 in an .avi wrapper.
You will have to transfer the files via the Finder.
Get a free copy of MPEG Streamclip and convert them to QuickTime .mov using the H.264 codec if you are presumably editing in iMovie.
Note that your list of video codecs won't look like mine as I have Final Cut Pro, but H.264 is definitely an option for you.

When I upload videos from iphone 4 to PC they skip frames. It isn't camera shake or anything like that. Any solutions?

Wow that was really quick, thank you so much. Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it. I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names. isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

Photo Stream is not a backup.
Photo Stream has a limit so is temporary.
iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos from any digital camera including from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.

When uploading video from go pro and sonyhandy cam, takes forever and clips says hidden camera

Tried to upload video from sony handycam and also gopro...takes hours, and only can view the first half of clips. The rest of the clips have ? and say hidden camera. This is in Imovie. Both camera's are on the imovie compatible list. Any ideas?

I am only bumping your post up, I do not know what is going on. You have probably finalized your project by now. My first thought is you mention nested scene sequences and I thought the edl process would not accept nest. I would have to navigate off to re-research that statement.
Why I reply is I have been testing the edl process and have been able to achieve sucess with exporting edl with audio as 'none' but failure to import edl with WAV audio into Speedgrade.
Yes, another member has a post regarding 'Major EDL Export BUG in 8.2!' in this pasted link
MAJOR EDL Export BUG in 8.2!
which is error with respect to WAV, and same error results as I am seeing with my WAV edl export text files
My research has led me to your post and I find it very interesting. Thanks for the details. I am not done with my research, just using all the data to see how I can include audio in an edl without error. My previous method was to export the edl without audio and import the audio separately. I now want to include audio,
another thought is your text files - they appear short, as in they say FROM CLIP NAME: (clip name), but no file extension
EDIT: I think the problem I am having with exporting edl WAV files is that the edl text file does not show the .wav file extension. I can export an edl and have the WAV file extension show, but it is not the sequence that I want to export as an edl. The sequence that does export out the edl file extension is the sequence where I cut sections of audio into my next sequence. It behaves like your nested sequence not giving file extension.
Thats all I can say is that my edl isn't giving me a file extension for my WAV due to it being cut from another sequence.

How do I upload videos from an SD card to the movies folder in Finder on my iMac?

I'm having trouble uploading videos from my SD card to my iMac. I'm wanting to save it in the "Movies" folder in Finder. When I open the SD card on my iMac, I am able to view the videos in QuickTime Player. They were an AVCHD file format. It gave me no option of saving the videos - not even with dragging them. So, I tried moving all of the files versus just one (in other words, instead of opening the file to view all of the videos, I just dragged the whole file without opening it). It saved to my iMac, but in the same way as it was on the SD card - I wasn't able to actually save the videos themselves. They were only able to be viewed with QuickTime Player - I couldn't do anything else with them. So, I took my SD card out of the computer and put it back in the video camera. I then realized than I could not view the videos in the camera - they wouldn't show up. I then plugged the SD card back into the iMac. The videos were now saved under a BDMV folder versus the AVCHD folder they had been under earlier. The AVCHD folder was there, but would not open. When I tried to open it, all it said was, "This operation could not be completed." The BDMV folder allows me to view the videos in QuickTime Player, but I still cannot save them to my iMac from the SD card. I even tried saving the videos to iPhoto by dragging the BDMV folder into iPhoto. All it did was say, "The following files could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognizable format." So, now, I am completely confused as to what I need to do as to save the videos onto my computer, and even how the videos are now saved under a BDMV folder versus the original AVCHD folder in the SD card. I'd greatly appreciate it if someone could help me with this problem. Thanks!

You should have an icon of the SD card on the desktop - do you? If not, go to Finder Preferences > General and make sure these items are checked to show:
Once the icon is showing, you can just drag the card content to your desktop. It depends on what you want to do with the video - just watch or edit in iMovie to share online or burn a DVD?

Uploading Video from Droid Incredible to Computer ??

I've had the Droid Incredible for a little over a month now (my first smartphone).     I have tried several different things but nothing seems to work.
Can someone please explain to me (step by step) how to upload videos from my phone to my computer?    Thanks!!

@EmsMom,
Step 1: Connect your phone using the usb cable to your computer.
Step 2: On the phone, select Menu--> Notifications
Step 3: Click on Charge Only option in the notifications. This will bring up the Connect to PC screen.
Step 4: Select Disk Drive and click done.
Step 5: On your computer, you will now have one or two new drives apprear (similar to when you would plug in an external usb stick). You will see only one drive if you dont have a microSD card inserted, otherwise it will be two drives.
Step 6: You will find all your videos in either of the drives (depending on where you store your videos. By default the Camcorder app is configured to store it on the Phone Storage) Either ways, look under both drives at the following path:
            driveletter:\dcim\100media.... (your videos and photos get stored here if you use the default camera and camcorder app)
Step 7: Simply copy the files and place them wherever you want them on your PC! That's it! You can then decide if you still want to keep them on the phone or delete them.
Hope this helps!

Adobe Premiere Elements 13 stops working trying to add media via videos from camera

When I try to add media selecting videos from camera or flip, Adobe Premiere Elements 13 stops working and closes. What might be the problem?

elizabethmeow
On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running? Have you had the opportunity to update 13 to 13.1 using an opened projects Help Menu/Update?
What are the full properties of your source media and how are you importing them that you are trying to import into the project? A quick way to get that information, if you do not know that information, is for you to post the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded the video.
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Element 13, and are you running the program as Administrator?
Lots of additional questions, but the answers to the above may give us the answer that you need to resolve you issue.
Thank you.
