Once the camera is connected with a FireWire cable, launch iMovie and power up the camera. Click the camera icon in iMovie and your videos should appear.</P><P></P><P>If they don't, it may be that you need to set your camera to playback via iLink. With the camera disconnected, go to [Menu], select [Standard Set] and make sure 'i.Link Conv' is set to 'off'. Then connect as above.</P><P></P><P>If that fails to work, I'd try a replacement FireWire cable. They do fail, more often than USB cables.</P><P></P><P>Hope something there helps.</P><P></P><P>Cheers</P><P>Mick</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 13 Apr 2012 13:04:28 GMT https://community.sony.at/t5/camcorders/hdr-hc3e-camcorder/m-p/314407#M1922 Mick2011 2012-04-13T13:04:28Z
