Hello All,
I bought new Intel MacBook Pro and I have connected my Sony MiniDV HC40 camcorder for the first time. I have got a 6 pin to 4 pin firewire cable too. I have put camcorder in play/edit mode and started imovie 6.

When I click on "Make a Magic Movie" from File, it tries to detect the camcorder and after a while it returns back with below message..

"Video capture cannot begin, because a camera could not be found. Make sure that your camera is connected to your computer, and turned on." And two buttons "Cancel" and "Try Again".

I have tried checking the pins properly and camcorder shows DVin on the LDA screen... I check the firewire 6 pin on computer too...

Please help in identifying the problem.

Thanks and I will be waiting for your earliest response.

Regards,
Vagic.
