I cannot believe it. Yesterday I could connected handycam to PC via firewire cable and through pop up I could select Adobe Premiere Pro and transfer video to PC. Today PC does not detect the handycam. After rebooting PC, switching handy-cam power switch to different positions still camcorder is not detected. Adobe Premiere Pro says on capture window: Capture Device Offline. In camcoder I can see "DV IN". I bought firewire cable yesterday. Did it fail just after a couple of hours of work? Possible. They manufacture such a **** these days. How to test the firewire? Or how to restore the connection? What am I missing? Your help is highly appreciated. Thank you very much.

Sony DVD-DCR201--cannot download videos at all with Windows XP Pro or Vista. Sony website says no drivers are needed, but it is apparent that we need a driver to recognize this camera, right? Do you know where we can get one?

Hello, During the last upload to my mac about half way through the tape, the transfer started stuttering and is warped and pixelated. Now, I cannot upload any more of the tapes at all. It just stops and starts and the computer program stops. I tried cleaning the head myself at the recommendation of a tech guy in a store with q-tips and alcohol which helped a little but didn't fix it. I love this camera and have a lot of old digital8 footage. Any suggestions?

Even after some head cleanings, my Sony TRV730 will only play back tapes with pauses every few seconds. It doesn't seem to matter if the tapes were recorded as 8mm, Hi8 or Digital 8. Recording doesn't seem to pose any problems. Any ideas?

Hello, I get a loud buzzing sound when I load any tapes into the cam.It records and plays back fine, but the buzzing sound is pretty loud during playback. Just looking into the tape chamber, everything looks fine. Any ideas what might be causing this? Thank You, William

A pulley that goes into the tape, or holds the tape (not a technician by any means) fell out when I ejected a tape. Now there no picture on play back or a bad quality picture. Can I replace it myself? If yes where can I get a service manual to take the tape cove off? Can I glue this part if it is broken.
Please help. It is an old camera, but I have a lot of analog and HI8 tapes that I need to download into my computer for editing.
Thanks,
Henry
