Use with Mac: Does this camera work easily with a Mac?

iMovie 06, NOT iMovie 08. If you upgraded to iLife '08, don't waste your time or money.

It works perfectly with our MacBook running Mountain Lion. We chose not to install the software that came with the camera as our computer settings open up iPhoto anytime a camera is attached. The wireless works best if you just transfer them to your iPhone and then email or sync when you're back at your computer.

Subject: Re: Y. Callewaert commented on your answer to the question "Being a Mac user, will this camera work with my Mac and iMovie program?"You're welcome. I think the camera is great. Really nice hs pics. I did buy the cannon mike that mounts on top on the shoe and if u have the extra $150 I think it is well worth it audio wiseThe mic is made for the camera. We use it to record our church services so I needed better sound than the built in micDave

Not sure if you have received a response but unfortunately I cannot answer the question. Supposedly in the description it is compatible with all macs. But I will say that it's tough to get the camera pointed in the right direction. Where the camera attaches to the base is pretty loose. The wire easily affects where it points. Video quality is excellent though.

Works very well with a Mac computer. The camera is also easy as a Mac to use! The videos can be used in iMovie.

I've got an Intel-based mac, but I think it's probably more an issue of the software - so you should be fine, provided you are sporting the latest OS and iLife. I've now tried it with both iMovie 08 and FCP (whatever the most recent is). It's very straightforward in iMovie. Here's a crappy example of something I shot, imported and uploaded in under an hour:http://www.vimeo.com/1033464Ridiculously easy with iMovie. Not as straightforward with FCP. You have to find the HDV profile best suited to the camera (I'm still experimenting).

Yes you can use with a MAC but, this is a low end camera with bad video. You are better off getting a higher end camera.

Yes, easily. I use it with my PC and I think it'll work with a Mac as well.

yes the WebCam does work with a Mac, but no the software does not so you will lose some functionality such as the ability to turn the camera and use the zoom features. But they may have compatibility patches or software for it. I'm not certain

I went on the Fisher Price site and it said this: Photo editing software is not Mac-compatible, but you can connect this camera directly to your Mac to transfer images.

Don't know. Mac person. Software is not the main attraction of the camera, which I really like!

Yes. On Mac use image capture app and use preview to convert to anything you want. On pc use included software in box.

Absolutely-I have a Mac. It comes with a memory card, I just download the pictures from there.

It works fine on my Macbook. I just import all of my videos and photos into Iphoto.

Yes, since it has a USB interface. Just go to Applications>Image Capture on your Mac and it'll sync up.

I got this cam as a gift for my parents and they have a mac,i believe running OS X. they've had no problems pulling images off the memory card

It is, to a point. I plugged it in to several of our Macs (an iMac G3, a G4, and an Intel Macbook), and in each case the camera's internal memory showed up on my desktop, just as a USB flash drive would. The pictures can be transferred to the the computer by drag and drop, which is good enough for us. In no case, however, was I able to get iPhoto or Image capture to recognize the camera directly, and of coarse the included Windows-based software doesn't work.
