You'd have to check with Apple - I suppose there is a transcoding device or a different type of firewire cable you might not be familiar with. I'd check with the "genius" bar.

yes, i just tried it out this weekend. running the latest version of OSX (10.5.2), iMove 08 captures video from the camera via firewire flawlessly. the quality is awesome.

This camera is so easy to use with a Mac. I simply remove the SanDisk card and put it into the SanDisk slot on my MacBook Pro. If your computer doesn't have a SanDisk slot, you can buy a card reader that plugs into the usb port (can get one for less than $10.) Another option is to attach via the USB cable that comes with the camera. This is a very easy to use camera.

I have used PC to set up the camera. Not sure about Mac. It should be OK with Mac. Once it has been set up, my Mac can connect with the camera with no problem.

Do not think it works in your MacBook Air, this connector convert Firewire 800 to 400; you need to support firewire to USB converter, visit: StarTech IEEE-1394 FireWire Adapter 4 Pin - 6 Pin M/F (FIRE46MF)

download the canon easy print photo app and it works like a dream. Just wish I could say the same for getting to work on Wifi with my Macbook Pro

For a Mac, I simply connect it to my computer and turn on the camera. It automatically up loads.

No answer, but my camera also will not provide signal for import to iPhoto on a Mac. This is recent. Help; help!

The output of this camera is on IEEE1394 (firewire). It should be compatible with any computer that has a compatible IEEE1394 input or can have an input card installed into it.

I haven't done so, but if U could transfer files between 2 macs that have FireWire 800, then it should work. If you're not sure, I'd check some of the Mac forums.

I'm using a Windows P.C. Not sure about using a Mac. I would contact Canon for more details. The software (Pixela) that came with my videocam does require only Windows OS to operate.

Its a very nice mbox however it doesn't carry usb allocation. You will need a firewire port to your mac.

It will connect to the canon but not to the Mac your Mac needs a firewire connection

I didn't need to use the cd on the MacBook to get the camera functioning. What OS X version are you using?

I got it with a Mac and wish that I didn't because it doesn't have a dv/firewire output and the files that you put on the mac are not read by quick time or final cut pro

That camera uses a IEEE1394 connection that would need an "I.link" cable. Look up "I.link to FireWire adaptors". I haven't seen those in a long time...if I remember correctly the PS2 used those connections.

It has a FireWire 400 out, I had to get a FireWire 400 to 800 adapter to be able to hook it up to my imac.
