However if you just want to get rid of the blurry image problem follow these steps:
You'll need a software, called an image editor, to sharpen your blurry digital photos.
Most image editors correct blurry photos by increasing the contrast between pixels. And depending on the image editor you use, here are some of the sharpen features you can choose from:
- Sharpen filter. Most image editors have this feature. This filter is used to fix blurry digital photos by increasing the contrast of adjacent pixels.
- 2. Sharpen Edges or Unsharp mask. Use Sharpen Edges if you want to sharpen just the edges in your photo while retaining the smoothness of the rest. If you want more professional correction, you might want to use Unsharp Mask instead by entering the amount, radius, and threshold.
- 3. Manually sharpening selected areas. If you want to sharpen selected objects or features in your photo, click on the sharpen icon and while holding down your left mouse button, move it back and forth over the object you want to sharpen.
New user. Audio IN and Out fine in iMovie via
It seems the know-it-alls at Apple have decided that we should monitor the audio, not via our Mac output but from our attached camera's audio out. Even iMovie does it better. That's the way they show it in the 'Set Up' section and,sure enough, thats the only way you can monitor audio. How stupid!

Just on a lap top not a editing suit with additional hardware? Can you hear MP3 files played in ITunes? (if not speakers or sound card hardware issue) Can you hear new files captured (if so recapturing quickest)?
N.B. Do you know there is a master sound device in system preferences?
HD footage stutters after captured in Final Cut Express HD 3.5.1
Did you capture as HDV? When you render is it ok? Some times it is best to capture as DV not HDV the quality will be as good (letter boxed) but it means fce is not having to decode the mpg4 compression of HDV in realtime. Can lead to a jolting due to extram RAM usage.

You may have damaged the video graphics card on the main logic board of your MacbookMacbook Pro.Unless you have knowledge on how to go in and physically troubleshoot this geniune hardware issue, I would recommend you do you to your local Apple retail store Genius bar, or Apple Authorized Service center near you and have your Macbook looked at.Just for your reference, I have taken the liberty to provide the store locator links to your local Apple Retail store as well as a general store locator for locating any local Apple Authorized Service center in your area.
Apple Retail Store(Genius bar - need to set appointment via this website link, if planning on visiting Apple store of choice in your immediate area)
Apple Authorized Service ProviderYou don't want to keep turning on the Macbook until you have it checked because it could affect more than just the video graphics card.Regards,-The MacTechTrainer.
I have a Sanyo Xacti 10 MP that records with date and time but when I put the SD card in my Apple laptop and download the videos, the date and time seems to not stay on the videos.
The date and time information may not be embedded in the video file itself, but rather in the metadata of the file. When you transfer the video from your camera to your computer, the metadata may not be transferred along with the video.
To preserve the date and time information on your downloaded videos, you can try the following:
- Use a video player that displays metadata: Some media players, such as VLC media player, allow you to view the metadata of a video file. If the metadata contains the date and time information, you may be able to view it using such a player.
- Transfer the video using a program that preserves metadata: Some file transfer programs, such as Image Capture on Mac, will preserve metadata when transferring files. You may try using such a program to transfer your videos.
- Use a metadata editor to add date and time information: You can try using a metadata editor, such as ExifTool, to add the date and time information to your video files.
It's worth noting that not all video file formats support metadata, so depending on the format of your video files, it may not be possible to preserve the date and time information.
