I'm not an iMovie user. Is it the latest version of iMovie? Maybe the version you have doesn't support your camera. </p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mac-not-recognizing-camcorder#post-45039 Sat, 21 Mar 2009 23:55:09 +0000 Kelly7189 45039@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Great tip, I looked in "About this mac" and found my camera (canonHV30) is being recognized. </p> <p>New question, why when I open Imovie does it say "No camera attatched" ?? (when I'm attatched of course)</p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mac-not-recognizing-camcorder#post-45036 Sat, 21 Mar 2009 22:49:58 +0000 robgrauert 45036@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>what software are you using? A lot of times you have to connect the camera and set it to Playback/VCR mode (or whatever your camera calls it) before you launch your editing software. </p> <p>You know if your computer has recognized the camcorder if you go to the Apple at the top left corner of the screen, Go to "About This Mac" &gt; More Info &gt; Firewire (left side) &gt; see if your camcorder is in the list of hardware connected though firewire. </p> http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mac-not-recognizing-camcorder#post-45034 Sat, 21 Mar 2009 22:18:55 +0000 Kelly7189 45034@http://videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I plugged my camcorder into my mac with a basic 4pin to 6pin firewire cable. It shows up on the camera as being plugged in, but on the computer, nothing happens. what am I doing wrong?</p>
