What consumer camera are using that is compatible with FCE 4?

And using an external drive (that is key, have to have soemthing that works with FCE4 and ext drive)
Hi, I am reading through these forums and there seem to be so many compatibility issues in the HD area. It looks like some are just user
settings and then others the actual camcorder just doesn't work with
FCE 4.
I am trying to find a consumer type HD camcoprder that will work with a INTEl based MAC abnd an external drive
The type of camcorder that is $1200 or less
But after readingt hese forums, it seems like more people have nightmares than good experiences with HD and final cut 4 at this point
I don't know what to buy or think
Thank you, sorry, it's just seems consfusing yet I can handle the editing and operating a camcorder but it's compatibility that concerns me (especialyy with hrad earned money and a possiblity that you can't return an electronic item, like a camcorder in some stores without a re-stock fee
Thank you!

Hi there,
I am using a Sony HDR-TG3 (TG1 in the USA) and FCE4.0.0 and now FCE4.0.1.
FCE4.0.1 will allow 1920x1080i work were are FCE4.0.0 is limited to 1440x1080i with this camera.
I have an external Maxtor One Touch FW400 200GB scratch disk. I recently upgraded this disk to a 1TB. I bought a seperate enclosure Macpower FW800 unit and Samsung Spinpoint 1TB, 32MB Cache, 7200RPM SATA disk. I really just needed to extra work space. But the Maxtor on the FW400 was also perfect for AVCHD importing and editing in FCE from my Sony HDR-TG3.
Hope this helps.

my Extensis suitcaseX 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and my existing CS design software?

If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.

Can recommend a slim/mini video camera that is compatible with FCE ?

I have some technical problem.
My video camera is too big in size to film in between spaces. My friend has build a model of a few cluster of flats. He wants me to help him film the spaces between the flats from the bird's eye perspective. By bird's eye perspective, he meant to say he wants me to record what the bird can see if the bird fly surrounding the flats & between the flats & then make turns surrounding the buildings.
My present video is too bulky to squeeze into those small models.
I think the only way is to purchase a video camera that is so slim like a shape if pencil so that it can go in between the blocks.
Where can I buy this ? Will this type of video (if exist) records video in good quality & compatible with FCE4 ?
Thanks

Hi(Bonjour)!
You should look in Radio-Controled airplane model equipment. There are mini camera that mount on the model and broadcast the video on the air to a receiver that can be connected to a camcorder. You can connect them on any VCR
See example:

What program can I use to be compatible with Microsoft office for windows?

I need to be able to use my iPad 2 for typing and excel. What is the program for apple that will work with my laptop running windows office.

Rick,
QuickOffice HD for the iPad is the best in my opinion. It also provides the ability to edit PowerPoint in addition to Excel and Word.

Are the fcp lpugins compatible with fce?

I am running the original FCE 1.0 Can't exactly afford to keep upgrading. (didn't use it when I got my new computer, now I am starting to)
if i download these free filters and transitions, are they compatible with both FCP and FCE and what versions.
I don't see anything on the sites saying anything about compatability.
Thanks alot,
Jason

Normally FCE and FCP transitions and filters are interchangeable as the two programs are virtually identical.
If you click on the hotlink below you will get access to over a hundred FREE Filters etc. :-

Good luck in your quest.

What is the largest HDD that is compatible with a MBP early 2011 15"?

My current storage setup is one 256 GB SSD as the boot drive in the original location for the hard drive. I then removed the SuperDrive and put my original hard drive in an optibay. I have since run out of storage (lots of audio samples etc.) and I'm looking at a 3TB internal hard drive. Or around that size anyway.
Can anyone advise as to what the maximum capacity for my laptop is?
Thanks.

Have a look at this article to give you an idea on your negotiated link speed when you install a hard drive in your optical drive bay.
installing a SATA III hard drive will not give you any issues - it might give you a negotiated link speed of 3GB/s instead of 6GB/s.

What video cameras are compatible with mac without having to download software

What video cameras are compatible with mac computers without having to download software?

Did you try connecting your camera to the computer USB port via the supplied USB interface cable instead of plugging in the SD card directly?
No driver is needed to connect your computer to your camera.
http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/camcorders/consumer_camcorders/consu mer_camcorders/vixia_hf_r52#DriversAndSoftware
Regardless of whether or not you 'like' downloading and installing software on your computer, Canon DOES HAVE software available for your specific camera and it IS compatible with recent versions of the Mac OS X operating system. Maybe try that instead of whining here about it not being compatible.

HT4623 Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

- The 2G iPod can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. It does not have the hardware to support a higher iOS version.
- Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
- You can only download the current version from the App store.

I am looking to purchase a monitor for a Power Mac G4 OR a Web cam that is compatible with the the Power Mac G4.

I have a G4 Power Mac without the original monitor - I am using a monitor from a PC that does not have a built in webcam. I have also tried a "Blue" brand webcam that was received as a gift for me that does not work...and went to best buy to buy a compatable one and they had none that they thought would work w/ the G4 power mac What are my options? Ideally the cheapest would be a compatable webcam. any thoughts/suggestions? or thoughts about where to get a replacement original monitor.
thanks!

HI,
ON the cam front.
The OS will support UVC compliant camera (USB Video Class) since 10.4.9 in iChat (Slightly earlier in other apps)
The issue for older G4 macs is that these are always USB 2.0 cameras (Used to be marked "Vista Ready" or "Certified" as Windows went USB 2.0 about the same time).
I have a G4/1ghz Dual Processor tower (So called Mirrored Doors)
This can have extra PCI cards and have installed one with 4 USB 2.0 ports (Remove blank, insert and secure with screw and away it went)
Nowadays virtually any USB webcam will be UVC compliant and USB 2.0 (Meaning no Windows or Mac Drivers to download and Install)
The abilities of the Drivers in the OS do vary between Windows and Macs of this age. (Lion on Intels does bring face tracking).
Anyways, once you solve the USB 2.0 input issue then virtually any USB 2.0 camera will work including the X-Box 360 cam or a PalyStation 3 one
Firewire
The Original External iSight was of course Firewire.
There were a number of other around the same time (Until USB cameras took over).
This means that some DV convertors that use Firewire to get Analogue CamCorders signals into a Mac will work (some digital camcorders may not produce a DV signal as such and will need a convertor)
The camera may have options on it's playback that mean it can be in 4:3 ratio if used with iChat. It also cannot be HDV (or any propriatary form) (You have to have an Intel and Lion/iChat 6 for HD).
Of course some DV camcorders do use Firewire to connect to a computer (although this has dropped off as USB 2.0 is actually slightly faster)
iMovie will accept many more formats than iChat will but you were talking about Web Cams.
NOTES
You may find sites still trading the external iSight. They are going to be at least 8 years old now and you will need to check so how that they are working
USB 1.1
If you can find a USB 1.1 Camera for sale or tucked in a drawer it will need two things:-
1) A Mac Driver
2) This Utility for iChat http://www.ecamm.com/mac/iusbcam/
Some manufacturers did have web sites with Downloads.
The Camera Guide page at Ecamm shows the links to two third Party Drivers from macam and IOXperts.
You will note the first Ecamm page says that iUSBCam does not work in Snow Leopard but you specs do say you are using Leopard (10.5)
Back to Screens
My tower has a card that supports two monitors.
The one I bought with my Tower was the Studio Display (Same Acrylic type surround to the screen as the Tower). (It does have USB 1.1 ports on the back)
This used the then Apple Display Connector (ADC)
It also had a DVI output.
Ergo any DVI Screen will work.
As to whether a DVI screen/display with a camera can use that DVI connector to feed the Camera to the Mac I don't know.

What's a camcorder that's compatible with Final Cut Express

I just got final cut express and I am looking for a camcorder from $200 to $400 that's compatible with it. I don't know much about camcorders, and some simple straightforward suggestions would be much appreciated Thanks!

Would you like to use tape or a tapeless storage variety?
Tape cameras are miniDV or HDV, both work fine with FCE. HDV may well be out of the price range.
A base model AVCHD camera (tapeless) will also be fine.
Note: Standard AVCHD is OK but many cameras use variants like AVCHD Lite. Read the fine print.

Looking for a retail available camera that is compatible with FMLE

I am looking for a retail available camera that is compatible with FMLE. I do not have a computer with HDMI input, and in the past, I have typically ran with a USB connection. Does anyone know of a camera that is available at a local retail store that would work with FMLE through a USB connection?

Webcams will work, although they may not give you the flexibility that you're looking for with a more traditional "camera".
You may be more interested in looking at a converter/digitizer -- something that can take a variety of inputs and pull those into your computer as a a video source that your computer, and FMLE, sees as a "camera".
Look at this page: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/flashmediaencoder/devicematrix.html
You'll see a variety of webcams, capture cards, cameras, and other devices that are known to work with FMLE. Most of those solutions, however, require the installation of a card or require that you have Thunderbolt connections or FireWire connections. Not on that list is the Dazzle line of digitizers. I know several people who use Dazzles with FMLE -- and while each one seems to have issues that you have to be aware of, they do work (some better than others). As long as you're aware of the issues, it's not a problem working with these devices -- and they're pretty inexpensive. The Dazzle Video Creator Platinum seems to have the least amount of problems (the only real problem that I'm aware of is that you have to be sure to disable your preview windows in FMLE if you want to make changes to the source settings -- or it will crash FMLE. But, once you get your settings in place you can enable the preview windows again and don't have to worry about it). The great thing about a digitizer is that you can now use any camera that can output to standard composite cables (the yellow, red, and white 'RCA' cables -- or SVideo cable). So your camera selection possabilities increase greatly.
If you're looking for a standalone camera that can deliver a live video feed through USB -- good luck. I'm sure they're out there, but your choices are going to be very limited.
Personally, I use the Canopus ADVC110 -- which allows me to hook up any camera (or even a playback deck/DVR/DVD player, etc.) that can output composite (RCA) or FireWire or S-Video. The ADVC110 will not work for you, as you need FireWire to hook up to your computer, but just in case you do have FireWire I can tell you that it is a stellar box with no issues at all.

What is these nonsence thing happening ........
Can any body provide some clue how to resolve the issue
Thanks and regards in advance

If it was previously working then try a smc and pram reset.
If that doesn't fix it then see if vlc can handle the video.

I cannot open iMovie - it says I need a "Graphics card that is compatible with Quartz Extreme" I know this is wrong- Have iMovie version 9.0.4, regularly use it and have not had this problem before

Details: On my MacBook Pro, I have MacOS X 10.6.8, a 2.26 GHz IntelCore Duo processor with 4 GB 1067 MHz DOR 3 Memory.
I have iMovie Version 9.0.4, which I apparently updated inJuly. I regularly used iMovie, and last used it about 3 weeks ago. However, Today, when I try to get into iMovie, I get thefollowing message:
“Quartz extreme Required iMovie requires agraphics card that is compatible with Quartz Extreme. One or more of your graphics cards does ntosupport Quartz Extreme.”
So, I cannot get into my iMovie. I know the “Quartz Extreme” message ismistaken. WHAT DO I DO?

I would recommend that you turn off and restart your Mac. That should clear it up.
