When I try to connect my old Panasonic DV camera to the mac (or any computer) by firewire It will either
A) Freeze Up the computer (Yes it happens on Mac and PC)
B) Not recognize at ALL
C) Recognize but not let me Control
D) Recognize but not know what Model it is (in iMovie)
E) Recognize and work great
Im getting fed up with A) through C) and im not sure what it is. Ive used my firewire cord for other things (and cameras) and its worked great, So ive narrowed it down to the firewire port on the camera thats bad. Any way to fix it? (Its like it is not connected right or not shifted the right direction [the port on the camera])
Or is it time to just replace this old 5yr old camera?
