Dear MacOSX,
I have a 2004 Sony DCR PC 105 MiniDV camcorder that I can't get to connect to iMovie HD 6.0.3. My MacBook Pro is a 2006 w/Tiger OS X 10.4, 2.16 ghz, 100 GB, 1 GB RAM.
I have connected the PC 105 to the MacBook with a 400 Firewire and and the camcorder will display "DV IN" on the screen as soon as the connection is made. However, I cannot get iMovie to recognize the the camera. I've tried disconnecting the F-wire, removing the battery, rebooting the computer, accessing the camera menu to be sure that the AV/DV signal is on, making sure that iLink is enabled on the camera, and setting the clock on the camera. The Sony website says that the camera is compatible, but it's dated 2004, prior to OS X. I have tried everything that I can think of to establish a connection but...no dice.
Feel free to post this question in the forum that you see fit if you think that it will be helpful to others. This is my first post (Mac Newbie) so I wasn't quite sure where it would fit in.
Thanks in advance for the help!
