Thanks for taking the time to respond.
I tried Dropbox, but the transfer failed a dozen times. (it was plugged in.)
I tried Image Capture, but it wouldn't import the video either.
And iPhoto doesn't work either.
I tried to connect with Bluetooth, but it wouldn't do that either.
I resorted to considering email, but the "Share" email automatically clips into about 1 minute clips; that's alot of work for a 50 min video. I can't figure out how to take longer clips, and the iPad user guide online says nothing about how to do this.
Doesn't anyone else out there take video on their iPad and then want to transfer it to their Mac? (Maybe not,I only did a long video because I forgot my video camera.)
Thanks.
