i hope that i have posted this in the right place but i need a little help.

My problem is that i have a Sony DCR HC90E mini DV camcorder that i wish to connect to my mac and edit the video's however when i connect the machine i can see the memory stick and the still photos but not the tape with the Videos, i have loaded the software that was bundled with the camcorder but that does help much, is there something that i am missing, please help me out here

thanks

Erp.. Hmm Are you connecting the camera to the computer via USB? You have to use iLink(aka Firewire) for DV. I ran into the same problem one time with a sony camcorder I was playing around with.

The USB port was real obvious, but the iLink port was a bit better hidden.

I hope that helps.

windows does not reconise my camcorder, so I need a aka firewire

windows doesn't reconise most things, it won't play most of my dvd's

Have you tried installing K-Lite?
