Mac Powerbook does not recognize Sony DCR TRV10 Camcorder
I am trying to archive a bunch of Mini DV tapes recorded on my Sony DCR TRV10 Camcorder. I hooked up the camcorder to the Powerbook via i.link (4pin) to 9 pin firewire cable and then Apple firewire to Thunderbolt adaptor. I am running MacOS Mojave 10.14.2. The macbook does not recognize the camcorder. When I looked online to see what iMovie was compatible with, it did not list my camcorder specifically, but it said that "iMovie works with most mini DV tape-based camcorders using DV and HDV formats. Use FireWire port for tape-based devices." When I hook it up, I make sure that I have the AC power connected to the camcorder, and turn it on to "VTR" mode. What can be the problem?
