To connect your Macintosh to a DV camera, plug the 6-pin connector into the Apple FireWire
Card and the 4-pin connector into the camera’s DV port. Both of these connectors snap into
place when properly engaged. If you want to connect two computers together (or if your
device has a 6-pin FireWire port), you can obtain cables through an AV equipment retailer or
electronics store.
Apple FireWire Card Software
To install the Apple FireWire Card software:
1 Insert the FireWire CD.
2 Double-click the Installer icon.
3 Follow the onscreen instructions.
4 Restart your computer.
Important An extension called FireWire Support may be located in a folder titled FireWire in
the Apple Extras folder on your Macintosh. Do not move this older extension to your
Extensions folder, as it may interfere with the operation of the new Apple FireWire software.
