Hmm what was that software conflict process called where you turned half off
and tested if the problem still existed, if it did you turned half off again
and so on until you isolated the corrupted file? That made for a fun weekend!
I've not had to do that in OS X!

Hi all
My nephew has an older 20 iMac that has been giving him problems for some
time, and is now starting to hang randomly. Disk utility fixed a few minor
problems, but revealed nothing crucial.
A hardware test from the original MacOSX 10.4 disk reveals an error code
4MOT/2/4004:HDD -
That's the one Ronni. Pure mathematical logic, still used sometimes to weed out
the troublemakers at school (not really?)
I've not done Preference Corruption in OS X. am I missing something exciting?

Can you boot off your installation DVD? That will tell you pretty
quickly if its a hardware failure. If you can't then you probably
need to talk to a Service Tech. If you can then you can use the
options within the installation DVD to roll back to your last Time
Machine backup and see

The error code mentioned is a fan sensor failure, the fan could still but
running but would need to test on the bench. Would require either a new fan or
a new logic board depending where the issue stems from, The hangs would be from
the drive getting hot due to lack of cooling

depending on the model of macbook pro (the one with the silver keys) could
possibly be a nvidia graphics issue which would be covered under a extended
warranty program, would need to test for it though.

Hi John,
Just a thought … Have you tried opening iMovie first BEFORE you connect the
Camera.
Then connect the Camera, are the files stilled greyed out?

Same experience here. I have tried all the usual traps - generating
new docs from NEW, not save as from older ones, making sure the size
is kept to a minimum - I had an 8MB client doc the other day and the
bells rang immediately. Keep saving almost every edit and hope..

How much free disk space do you have? 20% can be an issue...
Can you use Activity monitor to see what's happening?

Hi
One reason that a Mac may not read an SDHC card is that it may be plugged into
a SD reader, not SDHC (as James has mentioned).
But, that doesn't explain why the SDHC card in the Camera is not recognised by
iMovie'09.
I'm sure you are trying to import correctly by opening iMovie Import from
Morning,
I do not use FCE. But for AVCHD devices or basically any card/HD recordable
devices within Final Cut Pro, log and capture is the way of importing. So, I
assume FCE should do same?
