I agree with Mark. That is what I had to do in order for the upgrade to recognize my iMovie3 app. Curiously, after the upgrade, the app still showed version 3.0.1. I had to restart in order for Jaguar to see it as 3.0.2., as well as 3rd party plug-ins
to work properly.
More curiously, before I upgraded to 3.0.2, I ran Software Update, and iMovie3.0.2 did not show up. I think that was because I had renamed the app "iMovie3".
Anway, I installed the most recent "Security Update" as well as "iCal".
Prior to these 2 upgrades, Jaguar (10.2.4), and iMovie2 and iMovie3 would not recognize any of my 3 cameras. Apple System Profiler would read...
FireWire Information: No FireWire devices found.
After these 2 upgrades, my TRV900 was finally recognized in ASP. I was finally able to have my camcorder "connected" in both versions of iMovie. I then ran the iMovie upgrader and now I occassionally have the camera "connected". iMovie3.0.2 still has
audio stutter.
I'm running...
G3 Powerbook
333 MHz
512 RAM
VST Firewire Cardbus Card
I just ordered a SmartDisk Firewire Cardbus Card because it has 3, 6pin ports and includes power connector for robust bus-powering of FireWire devices (superior to cards offering only 4-pin "non-powered" ports). I hope this is the solution, otherwise I
may have to buy a newer computer.
