imovie - hard drive shows up as a camera and not an external hard drive
I have an external hard drive I am trying to work out of for movie editing using iMovie. When I try to import media from the hard drive, in the import window, the hard drive shows up as a Camera device instead of as a hard drive under the device options.
When I click on the external hard drive that shows up as a camera, only a few videos show up when I have over 1tb of videos on the drive.
I tried plugging in my 5tb hard drive to see if it would have the same issue and the 5tb hard drive shows up under the device section in the import options just like its supposed to.
Any idea on why this is happening with my first hard drive and how to fix it?
