I have a Canon ZR950 and am trying to upload some footage to edit into Final Cut Express. I have tried every single DV option in the Easy Setup Panel and have read just about every thread on the topic and still nothing. Every time I try to "Capture" footage, I get a message that says "It is unable to initialize HDV deck. Please make sure a deck is connected and try again."

If anyone knows what to do to fix my problem or knows a website that can help, I would really be appreciative. Thank you!

Can you see that the camera is connected by running System Profiler? I believe that camera is firewire so look under the Firewire entry in System Profiler.

Have you placed the camera setting into video playback mode?

When asking questions, post the version of your software. You'll receive better answers.

Please post your results to the thread as it is good feedback.
