Robert asked:
I'm a first year teacher of a middle school vid production class with 11 iMAC's. 3 of them (g5's) tell me I don't have a device (camcorder) hooked up when I load FCE. I tried 3 different cameras, each of which are detected when I loaded Final Cut Express (same version, 3.5) on other g5's. I also tried switching out the firewire cable itself, but it makes no difference. Any ideas? Our tech doesn't "do" apple, so I'm kind of stuck...
