Hi Everyone!

I took about 30 1-3 minute videos on my Kodak Z710 digital camera a few nights ago and was wondering how to get them on my Mac.

When I plug my camera in to the USB port on the back of my Mac, iPhoto automatically starts and imports the photos, but I have absolutely no idea how to import the videos.

My camera doesn't show up in 'devices' in Finder either, if that helps.

If anybody has any ideas or advice they could offer, they would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Tahiti1028

iPhoto should import the videos as well, at least it does with my Canon cameras.

I'm using iPhoto '04 and the videos do not import. They are in the .mov format as well.

Ahh, 04. I'm using 08, perhaps the feature is lacking in the older version
