So if it's miniDV and you have a firewire cable, it should work. Have you followed this sequence:
If your battery is sufficiently charged to run the cam for an hour's worth of tape, fine, otherwise connect cam to AC power. With cam OFF, connect Firewire cable to Mac and cam. Open iMovie, name your project and create so that the viewer screen comes up. Turn on the cam. At this point, your Mac should, within moments, say 'camera connected'. Cam needs to be set on 'playback' mode for capture. Then click 'import' button and your Mac will control the cam.
If you still get a 'no camera connected' you have to consider the possibility that either the firewire cable is bad or the firewire port on cam or Mac is bad. If you have more than one firewire port on your Mac, try switching. An Apple store should be able to help you determine if you have a bad cable or cam port, if you take both in to try on their Mac. Hope this gets you on track.

I found some old videos that I'd like to transfer to my laptop but video only transfers from Firewire. I do not have a firewire input on my laptop. The cam has 2 outputs, 1 firewire, and one smaller one (forgot the name.) The smaller one is the same as the PS3 controller charger cable. So I plugged it into my USB port of my laptop but it won't connect. I tried installing the driver for the camera but it won't recognize the camera either. Pinnacle studio won't either.
This is my camera:

I have a HDMI input on my laptop also.
What can I do?
