Video camera HELP!!

so i have a exilim casio digital camera that also takes videos. when i put my camera onto my computer i go to the icon and double click it, dragging the .AVI movie files onto my desktop. however, both quicktime and real player only play the sound of these files, and windows media player says that its an invalid file. ithen put them on a windows laptop, and they did play in windows media. i tried converting them through quicktime pro into .MOV files, b ut they still only played the sound. HELP!!!!

Flip Video Camera Help

I'm not sure this is the right forum to ask this question, but this was the closest one I could see with what my issue is.
My daughter wants a USB type video camera for Christmas. I have been looking at different ones and really like the Flip one, but I don't know much about them. I kind of wanted to stay under $100 for this. Does anyone out there know alot about these? Kohl's had a Shift 3 brand for like $50 this week. It's resolution is 640X480 and the Flip is full VGA. I guess I am confused by what this means. Is paying the extra money worth it for what these things are? Help please? THANKS! Kelly

theme of this board is video on Mac.. a device recording 640x480 isn't compatible with most common editors (iMovie, FCE) ..
have a look on this list: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3290?viewlocale=en_US
these devices are tested and proofed, some Flips are on that list ..
a few things to consider:
• she's doing some recordings and then ... ? keywords: editing, DVD burning, MobileMe purchasing..
• many snapshot cams offering 'video' too... two-in-one .. ?
• Grandpa told me: +buying cheap means buying twice+ - you get 'real' camcorder for less than 200€ .. is this more: "look, Youtube/Facebook/ .. no shirt hands!" or the very young Spielberg on her way to stardom .. ? movie-making is a fantastic hobby for kids (my son actually writes a 'script' .. he's 9 )

Importing VCR/DVD to Mac via video camera - HELP

Hello,
I'm trying to transfer video from a dvd/vcr combo into iMovie, and can't get it to work. I have a Samsung DVD Recorder and VCR (DVD-VR375), and a Sony HandyCam.
I've tried pretty much everything that I can think of to get the video capture to work, but I get no picture, and no options to choose my Video Camera from the iMovie screen. I've also tried to burn the VCR tape to a dvd and then load the DVD into the Mac, but that isn't working either. I don't know if I'm not using the right dvd or what. I don't know if it might be that the Samsung player isn't compatible, and if that's the case, if anyone knows of a compatible player, please let me know.
I'm very frustrated, so if you can help me out, it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your time!

How did you do it? I'm trying to upload videos from a JVC-GR-72U Mini-DV into my MacBook via firewire. I'm ignorant to the creative world of Mac.

I have a JVC video camera and it records the video to a .mod format (which Apple devices don't support). I figured out how to get them to iPhoto using iMovie but I want to be able to get the videos on my iPad 2 but it won't let it sync. Any help?

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

I can't sync the Not Afraid music video that I purchased this morning to my iPod Classic. It's frustrating because I have no issues syncing other videos and the rest of the album that this video came with synced just fine. Please help!

Please help!

You can only sync with one iTunes library. If you sync with another one the iPod will be erased and its contents replaced with what is in the library of the second computer.
However, you can manage music among multiple computers. See:

Need help downloading Sony video camera to iMac

I have been unable to download a video from my son's Sony video camera to my iMac. It doesn't recognize something?

Well, as per the previous note, more info is needed, but I would also add another question and is it a MiniDV camcorder with a tape or does it have a removable memory card or is it a hard drive-based camera? The reason I ask is that I had an older tape camcorder that I plugged in via the USB cable. Didn't work other than allowing me to access the files on the memory card in the camera. What I needed, (and bought) was a firewire cable that allowed me to control the camcorder and copy off the recorded video straight from my 2010 Macbook Pro. Worked perfectly with iMovie.
A long shot, but may help. Also, what ports do you have on your camera?

Help me shop for a video camera? Recommendations?

Hello Friends,
I have been lurking in the forum and decided to ask for help. Thank you in advance for your thoughts, opinions.
My (old) current video camera is a Panasonic AG-EZ20 (1998?) which uses mini-dv tapes and firewire (1.1 megapixel). My old laptop died and I had to buy a new one with Windows Vista. Now I HAVE to upgrade to PPro (I was happy with Premiere.old).
My new Toshiba laptop has AMD64x2 chip (2.2 ghz) with 3 gb ram, 250gb hard drive has 125gb free, and I have an external 250gb storage drive. Is it sufficient?
My video projects are not professional. However, striving for quality at the prosumer level is a fun hobby worth spending time and money on. I will be shooting events, vacations, you-tube stuff about car repair hobby, NOT cinema epic or high definition type stuff.
I like the idea of a 3-ccd camera. Is there something about capture via firewire using mini-dv tape that is bad or troublesome compared to the new hard drive cameras and 3-CCD quality?
I have been looking at video cameras on Ebay and B&H photo. The AG-DVX100B seems like champagne compared to my old camera. Another thought was a PV-GS350 or PV-GS500 camera which would probably be an improvement that is reasonable priced. If you are happy with your camera, PPro software and computer please tell me about your kit? Is there a web site you found useful in your search for pre-sale information? I was hoping to spend less than $1,000 on the camera, but I would spend more if the ease of capture/edit and quality of output helped me justify it.
I look forward to reading your responses!

Although E-bay can be attractive, I agree with Harm on this (not so much on HDV though). I also agree with his recommendation RE; B&H. I purchased my VX2000 and XH-A1 from them and most of the accessories as well as still cameras. Are you aware that B&H sells used equipment? This could be an option if $$$ is issue.
To emphasize on the others--by all means mini-DV transport. Yeah, its inconvenient to lug around a few extra mini-Dv tapes--they take up so much room in a jacket pocket. So, save the inconvenience of tapes and get a cam with HDD--then you can either stop shooting when the disk is full or drag around a laptop to take an hour from shooting to download so you can continue shooting--much more convenient!! (wink wink).
