video editing help

Ok so I have a panasonic dv camera. I got pinnacle software awhile back but just got to installing it. I have the camera hooked up to the pc via firewire and even though I can see the camera through the computer the program will not recognize the camera any idea for the computer challenged.

Which Pinnacle software are you running?

I can't figure out what's going on with your Studio 9. In the meantime, have you checked here?

I have Studio 9.3. In the "Capture" mode go to the "setup" menu and make sure that you have it set to capture from a DV camera. Studio is a great and easy editing program.

I don't think anyone needs to upgrade to version 10 unless you plan on shooting and editing HDTV video, for that is the main change Pinnacle made from versions 9 to 10.
